Tree Work

As far as I am concerned, considering the danger involved, the physically challenging work and the wonderful cleanup job he did after the trees were cut, yes he was very reasonable. My neighbor on the island said he paid the same price I did over 10 years ago from someone else!

Does he haul an 8hp woodchipper to the island for grinding up the limbs?

Cutting trees and grinding the limbs is hard hard tough work, especially in hot weather. When you cut through a tree with a chain saw, it sure falls down very fast. You can lose five pounds in sweat while cut'n down a tree, especially when it's close to something valuable like a house......or your head..

Used Courtney's (ArborTech) services last week to remove four large, dangerous trees in very tight quarters. He did a great job at a great price. Highly recommended.

Mr Kelly is IMHO a rarity. He takes great pride in what he does, and it shows.

The cleanup on our job was not simple.. in fact he also cleaned up after a previous job poorly done by someone else.

His price is a bargain for what you get. They couldn't print enough money to get me to do what he does. Of all of the "professionals" I have ever brought to my house to get a job done... he is hands down the best I've ever dealt with.

While on site, he advised that a big old oak in my yard needed a "haircut", he handled it with ease. The important part was his ability to see a problem before it was a potential damaging problem.

Class act all around.
