Tony came knocking on my door scouting for clients. He gave me what I felt like was a fair quote. He came back quoted me $3500 and we went ahead and decided to hire him. Of course I had 6 trees I wanted cut and 1 tree I wanted topped. He called me 2 days later on a Wednesday and said he could start on Sunday. He said he would have everything down that day and would cut the wood up and help stack the wood. Well Sunday comes and he doesn't show up until after 11am, and didn't get started till noon. He brought a bucket lift and worked a couple hours on 1 tree took an hour and a half lunch and came back for 20mins and sent me a text and said be back tomorrow. Didn't clean up anything left everything where it layed didn't even stack the limbs into a pile. So I spent over 2 hours trying to clean up this Hugh mess and ran out of daylight to finish but I got 80% cleaned up. Tony only has 1 person helping him and gets around using a cane. He was their to watch Tony cut tress. The came back Monday around 10:30 and called it a day at 4pm had to return the bucket lift and after 2 days of work their was only 2 tress that were cut down. Tuesday comes and they leave and I couldn't clean up anything Monday after they left and when they left Tuesday their was logs laying in the road infront of my house i have a Hugh driveway and and couldn't park their because limbs scattered everywhere. At this point I'm getting very worried because they had 3 tress left to cut that were very big and he was just going to cut it climbing the tree and doing so damaged one of my sprinkler heads and damaged my fence. And left the tree limbs on my fence. Had to come back Wednesday because he still has 2 more trees to go. I told Tony I would take down my fence and I didn't because he no longer had the lift because someone else rented it Tuesday and Wednesday. So he cuts my fence and drops a tree and he got the other one done. All he would do as far as clean up was cut the trees into smaller logs that's more easily moved. Didn't stack anything in a pile didn't clean up any limbs left my yard looking like a tornado hit it and even asked if he was going to clean up and his response was I did what I came here to do I'm going home. I wouldn't have hired him to cut my trees down if I knew I was going to have to hire another crew to just clean up for $500 because of how bad they left my yard. Price maybe a little cheaper then his competition but I wish I would have chose differently now. You get what you pay for I didn't look the guy up and call him he came knocking on my door trying to find work. I had several trees that really needed to be cut and I'm glad their down, just wish I would have gotten a second quote. Would not hire in the future and would strongly suggest to anyone to go with someone else. read more
