The best. You never know they're here. Best value around. They've done 90% of my trees.

Scottie and crew were very thorough with their work. Came on time and finished pruning 4 trees in my yard in good time. They cleaned up well also after they were done. Scottie himself was very responsive to my request of providing me a copy of his insurance certificate. I would highly recommend Scottie's Tree Service! read more

It was amazing to watch these guys work and the before and after is equally amazing. If you need some tree pruning or a major overhaul of your backyard tree situation, call these guys and no one else. They have the men, the machinery and the expertise to knock out the biggest of jobs and a very personal touch. After they cut away my out-of-control trees, shrubbery and weeds, my backyard looked like a disaster area. When they got finished, it was cleaner than when they arrived. I am super impressed and can't wait to work with them again. read more

Scottie's Tree Service - Before and after , Scottie is also a magician, he made my tree disappear "POOF" thanks guys - Tree Services Near Me - Staten Island, New York

Need a tree removed? Scottie's Tree Service is THE best on Staten Island. Scottie, himself, is professional, friendly, super punctual, and committed to his clients. This was my first experience. I had a tree (Japanese Maple) with a hard-to-remove-stump in my backyard. Scottie and crew removed it in two hours. He has a 10-man work crew. Five men work while the other five stand by. When the first half is tired, the second half work. This way they work hard/rest well so no one gets overtired. Scottie's organizational protocol is superb and unique. He also gave me a price that fit my budget. Others could tear a page from his book. I highly recommend Scottie's Tree Service and would give him 10-STARS. read more

The tree in front of our house did not look healthy. Scottie's Tree Service came quickly and removed the tree, grinded the stump. and cleaned up all the debris for a great price. Highly recommend. read more

I contacted Scottie's Tree Service for a quote for tree pruning. Scottie arrived at the appointed time and delivered a very reasonable price. We arranged an appointment and he and his crew arrived exactly on time and got to work immediately. It was amazing to watch the precision work given the tree was very close to my house. The crew cleaned the entire area very well and all this was done during a light rain. I highly recommend Scottie's Tree Service. read more

Picked this tree service out of many as he called back promptly. Workers arrived on time and cut down tree. I mentioned to owner when he accepted job that I needed 3 branches cut from from tree that are hitting wires. He said no problem no extra charge. When workers arrived they said they didn't know anything about it and refused to do . Very rude and asked if we wanted them to leave. They eventually called their boss and he supposedly said they could do it. We then paid the worker. They only trimmed a few leaves and left. We called Scottie and explained and he said he would send them back to take off branches even though he said they told him they had done it. As of this date we haven't seen or heard from anyone. Also I just had tiles put down on front steps that were chipped when one of the workers dropped a branch on it. Didn't notice until they left! read more

This is the second time I have used Scottie's Tree Service on Staten Island and I wanted to write a review because I am so happy with their service. Each time I needed them, they responded very quickly by coming to my house and providing advice and an estimate. The job was scheduled within days. The first job was actually cutting a giant branch in my neighbor's yard that hung over my property. I was nervous that it would inconvenience my neighbor but she was impressed with how fast it got done and how they left her yard cleaner than it was! The second job was cutting out fungus out of my plum trees - again, super fast and clean. I can't recommend them enough! read more

I would highly recommend Scottie's Tree Service for tree removal! They were punctual, super nice, and EXTREMELY efficient!! I watched from a second floor window as they took down a pretty big tree and it was nothing short of amazing! The precision they had with breaking down the tree was something to see. Everyone was doing something different, but it all worked together flawlessly. In less than 2 hours, they set up, cut the tree, removed all of it, AND cleaned the 3 yards near the removal site!! Excellent price, too! We would definitely use them again. read more

I had 2 very large pine trees on my property that the city had cut back on the street side so bad that we had to take them down. The Trees were about 70' tall. Close to my house and to my neighbors as well. Scottie's came on a Saturday and started working around 730. They had removed both Trees and stumps by 1pm. The precision they used to take them down was incredible. A bucket truck and a worker gaffes the other tree to make efficient use of their time and workers on site. All very professional gentleman and worked so hard. I have zero complaints about them. They cleaned up like they were not even here. I can not say enough how great they were with my job. I highly recommend them and I have to which others have used them as well. Great company and great prices as well. read more

See all

Scottie's is fast, clean, timely and affordable! I highly recommend. It helps that the owner is friendly and made the job painless. Great service!!! read more

Great service! I used them to remove a tree stump & truck, they came when they said they would and did a wonderful job at cleaning up. The price was reasonable compared to other places I called. I would definitely use them again and recommend them. And thank you Cara it was a pleasure working with you. read more

I had called five different tree services and Scottie's was the only one that responded and showed up! I could not believe how unresponsive the other tree service companies were. I spoke to Scottie direct. He is a likeable guy and provided a fair estimate. I had him remove trees/bushes from two properties. First he made an appointment with me for a couple of days from my call to him to review the job and provide an estimate. He accommodated my schedule by coming out on a Saturday. He made an appointment to take care of both properties within the week. He showed up with a crew of about 10 guys who plowed through the work. He had the proper equipment for the large job and his crew did a good job of cleaning up afterward. I would recommend Scottie's to anyone, especially if you have a big job. read more

We are 100% satisfied with Scottie's Tree Service. We've been using a different service over the past 8 years, which we were happy with up until the last couple of years. They became quite unreliable. Scottie's came out to give us an estimate, gave us a date for a couple of weeks later (not an emergency, so perfectly reasonable), he called the next day asking if we wanted them to come that afternoon since they had a cancellation. We were even happier that we could get the work done sooner. They came, cut down our very large tree, also cut back the stump on a tree the other service didn't do properly, cleaned up, and were gone in two hours. We would not hesitate to call them again. We definitely recommend them! read more

They did a great job and came back after to help my other contractors to remove remaining roots with no additional cost

We had Scottie's tree service prune our trees 5 years ago and although they were short they grew in beautifully. Fast forward 5 years and we needed pruning again so we called Scottie and no one else. I told him to look at 2 of my trees and he said they were dead and needed to be removed; he would prune the other 2. I agreed but we had to cut the deck to remove the trees. Now even though he said we would need to replace the deck boards; the cut they did was horrific. It was all crooked and a mess and then they tried to prop up the job with one scrap planter box we had removed. After complaining to Scottie he took money off which was appreciated. Here we are a few days later and we noticed they broke part of our fence which is now cracked, scratched and filthy from the scuffs. They also left our spigot in the "on" position that almost burst- I know they used the hose because I saw one of the guys washing his hands. Also, the first 2 trees he said he would cut are really small; they said they used the same cuts as last time and when I compared them to pics, they are way shorter; hopefully they don't die!! Overall Scottie is very nice but he should've been here when the job started, not just to collect money, as his workers did not take care when doing their job. Go elsewhere!! read more

the price is right. Had 3 trees taken down, and they were down in approximately 2 and a half to 3 hours. Two were very large, as well. The cleanup was excellent. Could not ask for more and highly recommend them. read more

Today was our second experience with Scotties Tree Service and the second time we were fully satisfied ! They arrive with a full crew ( 6 men ) , set up immediately , unload all equipment and begin working without wasting time. I really appreciate the fact that they take the added steps to protect my home, lawn as well as my neighbor's. My husband (Mike from Oakwood ) has recommended him to my brother and 2 neighbors who have used him and were pleased. read more

Scotty Tree Service, Anthony of this company and Cara as well...are ALL consummate professionals. Hands down the BEST at doing what you need and then rectifying anything else that was missed. I will be using them in the future and recommending them to all my neighbors and friends alike. They were trust worthy and easy to deal with. Cara who is basically their customer client person is super pleasant and easy to deal with. She and others deliver on their promises. read more

Scotty's tree service was supposed to come out today to give us an estimate on the cleanup and removal of a tree at lunch. When they did not call or show up by 4 o'clock I called them and they said someone was on the way and would call soon. Nobody called until nearly 5 and when they did they said they couldn't get out there to give an estimate until next week and suggested we go with another service. This was disappointing and unprofessional. read more

We recently finished building our home and Scottie's cleared the lot for us. There were 3 trees in the front that belonged to the city that we weren't allowed to remove. They were a complete mess with dead branches and shoots sprouting all around. Scott said he would come back and prune them when we got the permit from the city. Fast forward a year and a half later. We are now living here and get the permit to prune. I thought Scott was going to give us the run around and avoid us since he had already been paid. (After building a home, you experience this often). Not Scott! He was true to his word. He came and did the best job he could having to keep within the limits of the city permit. He also treated us with respect and kindness. Trust me when I tell you that there are many contractors that would be bitter and nasty and not even show up for the job. We were so happy with the service and professionalism of Scottie's that we will only be using Scottie's from now on! read more
