Recently used Lakeside Tree Experts and they did an outstanding job. Received great customer…read moreservice from owner Scott who returned my email within the hour. Scott was very careful and thoughtful about which trees needed to be removed and patiently answered my questions. His quote was slightly higher than the other 2, but I got the impression they were worth it, and they were. It was obvious that Scott wasn't interested in clear cutting but was dedicated to providing solutions to keep our current trees healthy. I cannot stress how important it is to get this kind of work done right. You can't just buy 40 foot trees. Owner Scott was professional and patient to show me which trees were dying and which trees could thrive. His team were friendly, efficient, skilled and went above and beyond (spoke to my neighbour about the work that was about to happen along the property line and friendly to other neighbours who interacted with them). Owner Scott did a walk about after the work was done to ensure I was happy. I would highly recommend Lakeside Tree Service. These guys know what they're doing and they do it really well. Looking forward to using them again and again.

Our 50' white ash was severely damaged as a result of the recent ice storm…read more It was hanging over our and our neighbour's roofs. We needed it taken down quickly and professionally. After getting quotes from several companies we chose Toby's because of their positive reviews, the fact that they were willing to email a copy of their insurance and the fact that the gentleman who did the initial inspection and quotation took the time to answer our questions. Toby's was not the cheapest quote we got but we had a feeling that they would do a good job, not cut corners and be safe in their work practices. We were correct on all counts! Their 'climber' showed up early on God agreed upon day, assessed the job to be done and then planned out the job with the rest of the crew when they arrived. Toby and his wife also showed up to supervise the job. Allowing for an unforseen problem with their wood chipper, the job was done, yard cleaned up and trunks taken away well within the time quoted. I highly recommend Toby's Tree Service. Peter

Horrible experience. They told us work would take 2 days and it took 5 and then they asked for 12…read more000 K more. This was a straight forward job- clear 5 meter from any pole that hydro is erecting- nothing on the job site changed- we didn't add trees and more trees didn't grow over night. Very clear instructions and map provided by hydro. We in good faith paid them another 4 000 because they refused to finish the job without further payment. Hydro came and inspected and the job was still incomplete. They said they would return in the morning to finish the job and never showed. They are crooks and I would never recommend them to anyone. They will lie right to your face and clearly do not have a clue how to honestly quote a job.

I have had the privilege of meeting Ralph when he was working on my neighbour's property across the…read morestreet. I was impressed with the quality of the materials and the workmanship. The final results of the entrance, walkways and plantings were aesthetically pleasing, giving the home instant curb appeal. It appears that no matter how large or small the work, Ralph is ready to access a problem and offer suggestions. In my case, Ralph took the time to to repair a section of my flagstone retaining wall with the same care and precision given to larger projects. In addition, his wife Cynthia was often seen working by Ralph's side. The young family make a good team!

Thanks so much to Ralph and Cynthia for the great work you did in repairing the stonework at the…read morefront of our house including removing, cleaning and reinstalling as much of the stone as possible, reinforcing the structure as needed, and adjusting the slope of the walkway to ensure better drainage and less erosion due to buildup of water and ice. Ralph also installed a better draining system from the downspout at the side of the house and did an excellent job installing new stone between the walkway and our paved driveway. We're so pleased with the maintenance work that it makes us wish that we had known them in 2006 because we're sure that if they had done the original work, none of the subsequent maintenance and adjustments would have been necessary. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for landscaping work to be done.

The company cleaned the edges, moved some dirt, leaves and worked around our plants to do an excellent job for us. We were told 2-3 years before we need another coat, that would be great. Nice group of guys, I'd recommend them to do your driveway, lot or space that needs a superior oil based product. See you in a while, thank you First Class Cleaning and Asphalt Sealing. Nice work.

Ray and his team did an awesome job in our backyard.

I'll definitely be using him again if I have interlocking and stone wall needs.

We couldn't have asked to meet a more down to earth person in Johnny when he came to our home to give us a quote. And not just down to earth, but honest and a man of integrity!!! He saved us $500 or more with his suggestion. Instead of jumping on sealing the deal, he told us that we could save ourselves the money by buying a saw pole at Costco and doing the job ourselves. He saw that it was a job that we could do and he explained in detail exactly how and what we should do. It's so nice to know that there are still honest people out there with integrity that don't just want to take advantage of people. In a world that is so cut-throat, it's so refreshing to know that there are still people like Johnny. He has revived our faith in mankind! We will most DEFINITELY give his company the next tree job we have that we can't handle and most certainly recommend him to anyone we know that needs tree services. This is truly customer service at its BEST!!! Thank you Johnny and Northshore Tree Experts!!!

I had never hired Arborist-services before , so I was new at this hiring process. So,.after speaking with several ISA certified arborists, I decided to hire Zen Tree care , primarily because his estiimates and explanations of work needed were nicely detailed and easy to follow and because of his pleasant and very professional and easy to understand, scientific manner when I first spoke with him on the phone . Archie of Zen tree care is truly professional , in all aspects of his work--- before , during and after the the job at hand . He provides clear and detailed explanations and detailed cost estimates with different available options before he started . He does not pressure-sell , rush or urge you to do the job now ASAP , like most the other Arborists I contacted . He removed both trees in a very timely fashion and RESPECTED MY SCHEDULES and PROPERTY at all times . His excellent clean up of brush and wood was prompt and delivered on the promised time and his final price was exactly as estimated ---no surprises . And his prices were very fair and reasonable !! I would MOST DEFINITELY RECOMMEND Archie to anyone and ,of course will rehire him for any future arborist work I need ! Archie of Zen Tree Care is a rare and pleasant find in today's competitive world ! Sincerely , Andrew L. , Innisfil ON
