The work

April 6, 2018. A leaning tree with a fence and a shed underneath it. Two photographs from the same morning.

A bare oak leaning over a chain-link fence. Wes is roped in near the top, a helper watches from the ground, and a blue shed sits close on the left. — 9:10 AM. Wes at the top, roped in. The tree leans over the fence line, the shed close beneath it.

The same yard less than two hours later. The tree is gone, the stump is cut low, logs are stacked neatly along the fence, and the shed and fence are untouched. — 11:02 AM. Tree down, stump cut low, logs stacked for her fire pit. The shed and the fence did not take a scratch.

How it goes

From the call to the cleanup.

Call, or text a photo of the tree and the town it's in.
He comes out and looks at it. The estimate is free.
When there's a fence, a shed or a roof underneath, he climbs it and takes it down in pieces. That's how Kathleen's came down.
Then the cleanup. Three of his customers made a point of it in their reviews.

In their words

What his customers wrote.

Despite being a busy season the Tree Guy quickly gave me an estimate and came out to take down a tree about to topple over and take down my fence. Very professional and knowledgeable. Took the tree down with no damage to shed or fence. Cut up logs for use in fire pit. Excellent clean up and reasonable price. Will definitely use again and highly recommend.

We had a tree that was posing a hazard so I called The Tree Guy. He returned my call in 15 minutes, was at my property an hour later to give me an estimate and returned that afternoon to do the job. He was efficient and cleaned up everything before leaving. I will definitely call him again if the need arises.

Questions

Straight answers.

Is the estimate free?: Yes.
How much does tree removal cost?: It depends on the tree: how big it is, which way it leans, what's under it, and whether you want the wood hauled away or left. That's what the free estimate is for. A photo and the town get it started.
Can I keep the wood?: Kathleen kept hers, cut for the fire pit. Ask when he comes out.
How do I pay?: Cash, check or card.
What are the hours?: Open 24 hours for emergencies. If he can't pick up, text a photo of the tree and the town, so it's waiting for him.
