Great group of guys to have at the house, so respectful of the property and just a pleasure to have around. Have been using the other New Leaf business, tree services, for 7 or 8 years so had a comfort level with them going into this project and they didn't disappoint. Can't say enough nice things about them, a pleasure to work with from start to finish.

This is a great service. I hired Capital Sawmill to mill some lumber after the derecho that hit…read moreour area downed a cherry tree on my property. The wood was too beautiful to just cut up for firewood. The service is pricey so do your math beforehand to determine whether the value of the resulting lumber is worth your investment. For me, the cost was worth it because cherry is a premium wood and I plan to use it inside my home for trim, flooring, etc. Stephen is the owner and came to my site initially to assess my job. Then a few days later, two employees, Alex and Allen showed up with the sawmill on a trailer towed by a truck. Allen is the sawmill operator and I was impressed by his efficiency and skill with the machine. He surpassed my expectations of getting much usable lumber from the logs while minimizing waste. Alex is more of the go-to guy, stacking the lumber in my barn, keeping the site cleaned up, etc. They removed all the waste and were very good about stacking the lumber where I wanted in my barn. Remember that most wood takes at least a year to slowly air dry before working with it. Alex stacked the boards with little sticks between the layers. The sticks are called "stickers" and the process of stacking is called "stickering." After it was all stickered, I brushed polyurethane on the edges to seal them to prevent splits during the drying process. The cost of their portable sawmill service is $200 per hour, with a minimum of four hours. Beware that this includes their travel time, set up on your property, packing up and returning back to their place of business in Nassau. I live relatively close and got about three hours of actual sawmill time for $800 plus tax. If you have the ability to deliver logs and pick up the milled lumber from their business, the economics would work a little bit better in your favor. Another point to remember is that rough cut lumber is not finished lumber. The band saw in the portable sawmill cuts to approximately one-inch thickness (or greater). There are slight ridges in the wood. After drying, my milled cherry boards will need to be planed and then sanded in whatever project I decided to use them. These days, "live edge" tables, mantels and other furniture is popular. Capital Sawmill can cut slabs from your wood for these kinds of projects. Initially I told them I only wanted boards. But when I saw some of the beautiful knot patterns and bark in the outer pieces that were cut from my logs, I decided to keep these also. Alex stacked them along with my straight-cut lumber. Possibly I'll used them in other projects. In summary, these guys like wood and know what they are doing. Allen is very skilled with the sawmill. Alex is also an interesting guy. What does a sawmill employee do in his spare time? He carves wood, of course, lol. At one point, he took out his cell phone and showed me some beautiful wood carvings, including one of an intricate owl that he created for his mom.

Upstate Tree and Excavation gave me a quote to bury a culvert and set up a drain system for a new…read morelawn area. They were quick to arrive, kept two appointments digging the channel and burying the culvert. Rather than get a third culvert, they advised that too much erosion below would result, and that instead they would bring in a load of rock to cover with soil to complete the task. That was in May. They took payment for the whole job at that time, even though it wasn't complete. After a couple of exchanged texts and brief replies over the summer like "of course we'll come back", they have now blocked me from sending text messages to their number and have evidently decided to keep the money for the remainder of the project and not return? It has now been over two months since they promised they would return. They did good work with the initial part of the project and were a pleasure to work with. I did not frequently text them, I'm not sure what happened, but they did not finish my project and the kept the remainder of the funds.

Markeith, the business owner, has years of tree cutting & tree climbing experience. His team also has years of experience and they have worked together for a long time making their communication on the job extremely efficient especially considering all the literal moving parts for the job I needed done. They took down branches up to 80 feet high off of 10 trees and expertly felled 4 more trees. I enjoyed watching them climb the trees and using the bucket lift. Markeith explained how he is able to climb up hard wood trees and not damage them but using the bucket is needed to preserve the health of softer trees like beech and pine as climbing can damage them although there are spikeless techniques he can use when required. He also showed me how fungus effects the trees and I was impressed by his knowledge. They were recommended by a family friend and although they are out of Ravena they had no problem servicing the 7 acre plot of land I needed worked on in Saratoga County. They price match and came in under the 4 other quotes I got and I'm certain they did more work than any of the other operations I received quotes from would have done. I'm very happy I chose these guys. They have 9 other 5 star reviews on Yelp that show up as "not recommended" for some reason. I will definitely use these guys again!
