Tree Trimming

They did a good job.  As John said, they had the right equipment to do the job right.  And they knew what they were doing.  We gave them a tip!

  1. Don't you love it when you can reward a job truly well done! I had a good experience at the garage where I went to book some body work for my car. Nice folks. You get the feeling they know what they are doing and are not out to rob you blind. No wonder it is an Automobile Association-approved place.

  2. Yes. So much lately I feel like I have to watch out for scams. Even though only one of the workers spoke English, it was clear that they knew trees, how they grow, and what to cut to balance the growth. THey also had a bucket lift so that they could get up in the tree. Four guys working for 3 hours and a lot of branches and limbs to pick up.

    It was a big job and they handled it very well.
