I have used Stanley Tree services a few times and every time I was pleased with their work. As a horticulturalist, I am very picky about how a tree is pruned and shaped and they listened to what I wanted for my trees and complied. They are great with climbing, using ropes and saws and landed some major branches in very tight places without damaging my extensive gardens. They also took down a 50 foot hemlock that bordered mine and my neighbor's property and cleaned up afterwards. It required a crane and neither my lawn or my neighbor's was damaged at all. I would not hesitate to call them to do more work at my property and plan to have them back next year. read more

They did work at a neighbor's house and drove over my lawn to get in his driveway. Another neighbor witnessed it and called me. I contacted them to have them repair the damage they had done. The woman who answered said she would talk to the driver and get back to me. I called again with no response. Needless to say I had to pay to fix it myself. read more

Stanley Tree Service provided downed tree removal after a storm and a few weeks later returned to provide tree maintenance and removal. The 2 different people that did the estimates for the jobs were thoughtful and explained what was recommended and listened and responded to our questions. Crews for each job were skilled, polite, answered questions and were careful of our property. They clearly worked well together too! read more

Despite the hiccuping in scheduling (a weird no show??), these guys went above and beyond for me. they noticed a hornet's nest on my roof and sprayed the hell out of it for me. that was brave and totally unexpectedly kind to do. i would have been incredibly scared to piss off hornets in a cherry picker lol. anyway, they did the job (cutting three trees, all in inconvenient locations) lightning fast and hauled away the wood. no problems at all. already thinking of bringing them back for round 2 to deal with another crappy tree in my stupid yard. read more

No respect for neighbors or noise ordinance, do not use under any circumstances!! Really bad experience

We are so impressed by everyone we've dealt with from Stanley Tree Service. The arborist who has supplied an estimate was super-knowledgeable; the person who trimmed our way-overgrown rhododendron was incredibly careful and communicative; and the scheduler is always delightful. Oh, and despite all this excellence, the prices actually seem realistic. read more

They took 2 trees down in a tough to access part of my yard. Super nice. Went above and beyond. I'll def use them again

Stanley Tree showed up when they said they would. Met with the crew who were very polite and professional. Trimmed our 30' White Pine perfectly. Would recommend them highly. read more

Stanley Tree Service took down three huge oak trees from our yard that were becoming dangerous and had begun causing us several other problems. We were extremely happy with the whole process from their onsite estimate through completion that included grinding the stumps. The noise levels throughout were far less than we had expected, and the crew cleaned up our yard and our neighbor's very well. The price was in line with and below our other two estimates - which we felt was very fair considering the amount of work to be done. Stanley Tree Service has been in business for a long time, and everyone we dealt with both their office personnel, estimator and crews were top notch and professional. We highly recommend Stanley Tree Service. read more

Fantastic. Thank you so much to Stanley Tree Service. You made the process so easy from start to finish. I just bought a house and John came out to give me a quote on cutting some trees back from the roof plus some other stuff I wanted done (bush removed, ivy removal). He also gave me some recommendations for future tree care and taught me about my new property. You can tell he knows about trees!! The quote was timely and written so there were no questions about price or what I wanted done. As for the actual work. The crew showed up EARLY!! They were polite professional and respectful of my property. The work was great and exactly what I wanted. Additionally, they were super fast. I couldn't believe how quick and efficiently they worked. Maybe 1.5-2 hours which involved climbing trees, bucket work, chipping, a bunch of stuff. Outstanding. Thanks guys! read more

This company and their employees are dishonest. One of their drivers pulled out in front of my car and their trailer took off the front end drivers side of my car. They were nice to my face but then refused to communicate with my insurance and denied responsibility. The damage was so bad, my car was totaled! I would never hire them to do my tree work for fear that if there was an issue their insurance would deny the claim! read more

Stanley Tree Service was beyond amazing! I was at work when they were scheduled to come and to my delight all the work was done to perfection and not a leave or trig was left behind. If you're looking for professionalism, great prices and a fantastic team, look no further. Highly recommend! read more

Awesome professional staff. Very detailed and great listeners. Made my 78 year old dad calm with their approach of removing a 50ft + pine tree that was way over 60 years old etc. I wanted a ride in the bucket of the truck but obvi that was a safety no no. LOL. read more

Fantastic service. I had a pretty big project for them. 3 large trees taken down completely and pruning off 2 very large oaks that were very overgrown. The crew was professional and courteous. They left my yard cleaner than before they arrived. Prices were very reasonable compared to other quotes I received. I highly recommend Stanley and will definitely use them again in the future. read more

Excellent service from the initial estimate appointment to the tree trimming. Cleaned their work up, super friendly and the price was right. Thank you!! read more

Quite literally amazing service. Large oak tree split off from trunk and landed on the roof at midnight. Stanley came out first thing in the morning to provide an estimate--no pressure. When authorized, they came back with the crane, bucket and the professionals. It was incredible to watch the care and diligence taken to remove this tree. I recommend them highly. Not only did they get the tree removed but they also removed all of the debris. Great job!!! read more

After overcharging me and not finishing what they said they would do I can't even get a call back after leaving messages. Thanks for a crappy job! read more

Shout out to Stanley Tree Service, Inc. for doing an incredible job at our house today. They were here for the long haul and worked their butts off. They cleaned up to better than the yard was before and even took care of the extra twigs and such we had in a pile without being asked! They went above and beyond and we appreciated every bit of it. I highly recommend their services! read more

The crew from Stanley tree service did a major pruning on my massive three-trunked River Birch. I live in the city and they were incredibly careful to protect my fence and my neighbors yards. They were highly knowledgeable and committed to helping the tree thrive, they cleaned up beautifully, and went out of their way to make sure I was satisfied with their work. I highly recommend them. read more

Professional, reliable took 6 trees from my property I had a great experience with this company I would highly recommend them to anyone who asks read more

Neighbors had trees removed, huge ones. The only way to access was from my driveway. This was arranged by the neighbor and communicated by the neighbor, when to expect to see Stanley Tree. Arrived ready to set up to get to work. When the crane was going to drive on the green space they set boards or planks to protect the green space between my driveway and their project. Worker checked with me before working in the driveway which would block me in and offered to move if I wanted to go out. When laying the cut trunks of trees these were carefully placed onto a board so not to dent the lawn. Impressed and a bit in awe of how efficient and what was completed in 1 day. read more

Stan, Bruce, and the entire team are absolutely awesome to work with! They are extremely professional and really know their craft. I've worked with a few people there and everyone I spoke to was friendly and knew what I needed. They're definitely doing something right, I see their trucks everywhere! Kudos to you all! read more

We had John and the crane crew in to take down a 100 foot spruce which was about two feet from my house. They set up in the back yard and systematically took down the tree and trimmed another line directly next to it. When they left you could not even tell they were there. No marks in lawn and no debris. Guys were polite and courteous and I would have them back in a minute. They were recommended by another local service that did not provide crane service and the delivered Highly recommend read more

TLDR: This company seems to be agressively seeking out elderly/inexperienced customers to scam. They strongly appear to be thieves masquerading as a legitimate business. After the work is almost done, they will lie about price, work completed, and threaten you (via several methods) if you don't pay their heavily-altered, dishonest prices. I have been in the construction and landscaping business for 18 years. After we agreed on a set price and other factors, the work begun. When the work was almost done, they started changing the agreement. They demanded a steep increase in price by several thousand dollars, cut down the wrong trees, destroyed the yard with massive holes and tire tracks, and demanded payment without wanting to finish the job and without picking up the downed trees. If you rightly refuse to pay, they will agressively threaten you. Avoid at all costs. These miserable people are greedy thieves who would likely scam their own children to make a few quick bucks. read more

Stephanie and Aaron were easy to communicate with. Aaron came out, emailed me quote - great pricing. Things happen and schedules change, you have to understand that with any tree service, emergency call/storms are a priority. Stanley Tree removed 4.5 maple trees (over 60 ft tall) - work took 1.5 days. Took great care in not damaging anything. I would highly recommend them to all family and friends. Thank you Stanley Tree read more

So today we had some trees taken down. The equipment involved was mind-blowing. The crew that showed up to execute the removal were absolute professionals. Every precaution was thought through to insure the safe removal of the trees and protection of our property. From the experienced crane operator, to the job Forman, the chipping and cleanup crew to the climber..everyone knew their role and the entire job seemed synchronized . I sat and watched in absolute amazement. Not only was EVERYTHING on our list taken care of, but these gentlemen were NICE! A true testament to any company is the attitude of their field crew when the "boss" isn't there watching. The equipment they had also spoke to how seriously the owners take their employees safely. That is HUGE for me. All questions were answered and I've NEVER felt more ease. Stanley, you have a fan for life. read more

Stanley Tree recently removed a giant elm that had partly fallen in our yard. They completed their work exactly in the time frame they projected and charged a very fair price. Their workers were incredibly friendly and professional, but most of all immaculate. They removed a giant tree and there wasn't one branch left in our property after they were gone. This is the only tree company I would ever use for tree needs. The best! read more

We had a very large mulberry tree taken down. This tree had many vines and other foliage around it and in it. Stanley tree offered a competitive estimate. The work was completed as scheduled and I received updates on arrival time. The crew did not leave as much as a leaf or shard of wood chip in our yard or on the street! Very professional! When communicating via phone with the staff, they were professional and responsive. I highly recommend Stanley Tree ! read more

Stanley Tree Service quoted us $2,500.00 to remove a single spruce tree that partially fell on our house. Impressed by the speed of their initial response, and the fleet of equipment shown on their website, we signed the contract--despite the price. Stanley Tree Service arrived in four vechicles to remove the tree a few days later. But, within minutes, they opted not to remove the tree, but instead added several provisions to the contract and insisted that we sign it. They promised to return a few days later. And, after much effort, we managed to schedule an electrician, wire inspector, and power company to be on site when Stanley Tree arrived. But, again Stanley tree informed us that their logging truck won't be available. Yet, again we arranged to have everyone available a week and a half later. After we ensured Stanley tree that all of their "new" provisions were met, they promptly notified us via email that they decided to back out of the contract. In other words, we have wasted a week and a half meeting Stanley Tree's demands only to have them renege. Worst of all, we still have a tree on our house. read more

Just an update, I was out at my moms house looking to replant the grass where Stanley destroyed her yard (and then charged her to replace it with fill) and the fill they charged her for is mostly gravel mixed with broken glass! So now no one can walk barefoot on her yard ever again because they used nasty rocky fill with broken glass in it. Also, I complained to them back in the fall and they never bothered getting back to me. read more

Back again for nine more trees, mostly ash that have been devastated by bugs. Crew of four showed up on time, worked right through with crane and multiple trucks. Very professional and efficient. When you have huge tree trunks being lifted over the roof of your house, you need a good company. Seemed like a fair price, highly recommend. read more

We usually cut down all of our own trees but we ran into a project that we needed tree service assistance for. Stanley tree came and handled the job professionally and efficiently. Definitely will use them again in the future. read more

Stanley Tree Services came out to my house yesterday and cut down two of my maple trees. One was in the front yard and the other was in the back yard about ten feet from my house and both were approximately 40 to 50 feet tall. They were extremely professional and thoughtful. They explained exactly what and how the process would go. The front one took no time at all. The back one was much more difficult due to the fact it was not only hanging over the house, but my shed, fencing and my neighbor's yard. They were also very attentive to my neighbor's concerns about his sprinkler system and made sure they did not damage any of his sprinkler heads with their machines. Watching them work I noticed that they thought out, planned, and discussed every move. I took pride in the fact that every neighbor said they were extremely impressed with their work! They worked diligently and efficiently to the point that they even fixed my lawn where a log fell. Yes, they did tap the vinyl corner of my house while moving a log through a difficult passage, however they immediately informed me if it. I understand accidents happened, but I was extremely impressed that they apologies and said they would "make it right" no questions asked. I received a phone call within an hour from the salesman asking me how I wanted to go about fixing the corner. Today he suggested that if I wanted, they would grind the front tree sump for free which I accepted. An hour later they showed up and again very professional and efficiently ground the stump down. I would recommend Stanley Tree Services in a heartbeat not only for their salesman and professional crew, but also for their care, honesty and their personal approach! read more

We hired Stanley Tree Service to remove dead ash and black gum trees along with other tree trim work and they did an incredible job. The all day project involved using a crane, bucket truck, and five workers. They showed up on time, were professional working as a team, made sure the area was safe for everyone and reviewed the entire project to confirm what they were removing/trimming before they started the service. The clean up was immaculate! The office staff was also professional and great with communication and paperwork. Highly recommend. read more

Stanley Tree Service was fantastic. They came ready to work and ready to climb trees due to a tightly fenced in yard within a few hours of calling. Price was fair and they got the job done without any issues. I highly recommend them. read more

Stanley Tree Service not only takes care of any tree issue we have, they also take the time to educate me. The technicians are patient and knowledgeable. They never appear to be in a hurry to get to the next job. Aaron took the time to research my hydrangea issue (not blooming) and sent me an article! Noah was also terrific. Glad we found them! read more

Be Warned!!! This company was hired to clear the towns electrical wires. BUT what they did was hack there way up the street. Leaving half cut to stripped trees to brush everywhere. Now several neighbors have years to live with what looks like a mini tornado swept through. Very Unprofessional. If I could it would be negative 5 star rating. Curious how the people of this company would appreciate their street to be hacked and left. read more

I had 2 trees taken down in my yard and all the dead branches from the pine trees cut. Then they pruned the front beach trees up, the yard looks great! The employees where very polite and respected the place, I would defiantly call them again. read more

Dear Stanley Tree Service: I am grateful to your efforts to help the surrounding community after Friday's storm did so much tree damage. That being said, I am upset that I have had an appointment with you for several weeks to meet today at noon. I received a phone call at 8:30 AM telling me that crews need to work on other trees around the state due to the storm. While I can understand this, please understand my frustration in taking a day off only to be told sorry 3 hours before a meeting. I cannot get my day off or lost pay back. While my trees remain upright, the last storm, the coming storm, and the proximity of said trees continue to make me uneasy and I will have another service out here soon to take care of them. While this is perhaps small compared to the difficulty in others, I feel strongly I could have been given more heads up about this, even last night, when I could have modified plans. I understand the company has probably been burning the midnight oil due to the storm, but a little consideration of potential customers would be nice. It takes little effort and even less time to look ahead and say, "Sorry, we can't keep our promise, but at least we can inform you in a timely manner." Best of luck with the continued cleanup; I'm sure you're doing a great job. read more
