“I like them very much, but they tend to run a little bit on the expensive side. I think they generally do good work, and they seem to know a lot about what they're doing in order to protect the health of the trees. I wouldn't call them to remove a dead tree because someone can do it for less, without causing trouble—but if you want to keep your trees in good health, they're very good. I would give them an A+ for the work. The price is not going to be the best price, but you have to pay something to get something. I would recommend them if someone needed to have some pruning or some kind of specialized treatment for their trees, or wanted someone to give them an opinion because they didn't know what to do. If someone needs to put sod in, or do landscaping, or take a tree down, I would probably recommend somebody else, because you wouldn't need to spend the extra money for them and their expertise on how to make the tree healthy.”

“They stand behind their work. There was an incident of a damaged shrub that occurred when they took a tree down, and they replaced it, even though it didn't die until several months after. They had to dig it up and move it while they did some work and put it back, and when they put it back, they didn't bury it deep enough in the ground, and so it died over the winter. And when I called them about it the following spring, they said, 'No problem.' They came out and replaced it. It was not a hassle at all. Plus the work they did was good. No complaints.”

“They were very good. I had them cut down some trees in front of the house. Did a very good job—very professional, and I talked to them about some other work. I don't think they did the other work, but if they were, I would have been quite happy if they'd done it. The work they did was quite good. I'd give them an A+. They were a good price, and done quickly with it.”

“They're terrific. They just know trees. They know how to handle them right, and the last time I had a broken limb they came out quickly, repaired it, and trimmed it back—they're just experts. It costs a little bit more than your average, but they seem to be very good arborists. I'd give t Care of Trees an A. They just do their job.”

“The only thing I asked for them to do was not to apply anything unless I was there, and they did it anyway. So, I would just like to be present when they do the work. I would give them a B+. I guess the trees are alive, so he did a good job right.”

“I've worked with Care of Trees for many years. They've done work for me for many years. They're extremely knowledgeable and responsive, and they have done very good work on some difficult trees that I've had issues with. I would give them A+.”

“They were very good. I think they've been servicing this one tree of ours for many years, but we're the newest owners of the house, so they've been taking care of it all along and are doing a great job. I'd give them an A+.”

“They were very honest about what needed to be done. The people who showed up to do the work were very competent, very pleasant. They did what looked like difficult work to me very quickly and well. I'd give them an A.”

“I had a positive experience, except that they missed one branch that was dead and didn't cut it off. I haven't tried to call them back to see if they'll come and get it but. I'd give them a B.”

“I had a great experience with Care of Trees. They were efficient and professional, and I was satisfied with the service. Also, they were pretty affordable in comparison to others. I'd give them an A+.”

“I thought that your information they provided was reliable and authoritative, and I thought the knowledge of the inspectors was excellent. I'd give them an A+.”

“I'd give Care of Trees a B. There was just a divot left in my front yard by a large tree, which I can understand, but it is what it is.”

“They're responsive. I'd give them a B+. I'm looking for more attention from an arborist and less just routine spraying.”

“They're very good. Shawn is the person I deal with. He's an arborist, and he's very knowledgeable. I'd give them an A+.”

“Professional, on time, know their subject—confident in their recommendations and work. I'd give Care of Trees an A-.”

“As I recall, it was OK. They provided us what we asked for. There were no complaints with them.”

“They're on time, did the job they said they would do. I would give them an A.”

“I don't have any problem with anything. I'd give them an A.”

“They're very good. They did a very nice job. No complaints.”

“I had a positive experience with them.”

“I had a positive experience with them.”

“We have had them over the years and have always been happy with the quality of their work. I would grade them an A+.”

“I liked how thoughtful and how careful they were and how they understood trees. I would grade them an A+.”

“I've always had a good experience with them, they were on time, and their price was compatible. I would grade them an A.”

“They were great. Beside that, I paid them what I paid them for. They did the thing that they were supposed to do. I would grade them an A.”

“They’re so knowledgeable and I know that other people had great experiences with them. I just had a little trouble with the back and forth but I think my experience was unusual. I would grade them an A-.”

“Their arborist, the same person, has been working with me consistently the whole time that I've been with the company. He is very knowledgeable, great customer service, very friendly. Everybody that has been on site to do any kind of work has been great. They have very good customer service. I would grade them an A+.”

“They did a great job. Initially, the customer service rep was a little slow getting back to me. But when I got their attention, they turned it around pretty quickly. I would grade them an A. The actual crew that came out and did the actual job was fast. They did a great job and cleaned up really well. No complaints there. I will definitely use them again.”

“They were very thorough. Actually, there was a miscommunication. I wanted some limbs left for kindling and they made a mistake and took them off, and they were kind enough to find another bunch and drop some off and left them. So it wasn't in the contract to leave the limbs so they very well could have just ignored it, but they came back around and did what I asked. It was a good bunch of guys. I would give them an A.”

“They were a very proficient company, a man came out and I showed him what I needed to have done. He wrote up a report and the people followed all his directions that he gave them and they did exactly what I wanted to do and they did it in a very straightforward, fast manner. They had great tools. My neighbor next door had his family visiting and they had four little boys. They were standing in a row like they were giving them a show, it really captured their attention. They pulled up with their huge machine and mulched everything after they cut it down. I would grade them an A. I've already recommended them to several people.”

“When they come, you don't really interact with them. But it looks fine. I would grade them a B. They’re a little vague, I don't really know when they are coming.”

“I would recommend them(?)”

“They did a fine job. I have no complaints and I would highly recommend them.”

“I wasn't there to see, so it seemed pretty good. I would grade them an A.”

“They look fine. I have no complaints and I would highly recommend them.”

“It was positive and I had no complaints with them.”

“I'd give Care of Trees an A.”

“They did a great job. I've had them do work multiple times.”

“My experience was positive. I'd like them to come back soon, actually.”

“We've had them a couple times, and they’ve been very good. We were very happy with them. We give them a positive recommendation. They've taken down trees and taken off limbs. We have no complaints.”

“Care of Trees cut down a tree for me. I like their prompt arrival and that they cleaned up behind themselves, which is good. I'd used them before. I'd rate them as an A.”

“I think they're professional. They answer emails. They’ve done mostly pruning for me and tree removal. I don't have complaints.”

“They did good and did the job efficiently. I chose them because the price is good, and at the time, they could do what I wanted. They cut down the tree, and then they took out the stump as well. I'd give them an A.”

“The experience was quite OK, as I expected. I've had other experiences with them. I appreciated their promptness and their listening to my opinions and requests for information. They seem to be very responsive.”

“They’re good because they know how to cut down a tree, which is an art. I have big trees, too. I’d had them here before, and they always cut down trees for me. I don't have any complaints. They're excellent—A.”

“I did have a positive experience last year when I used them, but I tried to use them and the customer service or administrative department has not been very responsive. So last year was great, but this year I've been a bit disappointed in the customer service. Initially I chose them because they were used—the folks that lived in our house before us used them. We were new owners, so we thought since they were familiar with the yard we decided to meet with them and were very impressed when they came out. We were very pleased when they came out to perform the service. We tried to use them again. We've tried to get them back out and it's been a bit of a challenge. They trimmed several trees and pruned as well other trees. It was a whole backyard. We probably had ten trees that they serviced. I would say year one would have been A, and right now I have a four—and then this year D. Right now if you had to take an average, B-.”

“We've been using Care of Trees, the same arborist, for 15 years. I trust that they take care of my trees. There's one tree in particular that they've had to feed, prune, and wire together over the years. They're very sensitive to doing what needs to be done but not spending too much money on it. The arborist looks around and makes recommendations for whatever else they need to do. The people that take care of the trees are just fabulous too. They move fast, they’re extremely professional, and they don't do too much. Nothing crashes down. They clean up completely when they're finished. Their work is extensive, and I wouldn't consider doing business with anybody else because I know they’ll do a good job. They're an A.”

“I have a huge magnolia tree that's about a hundred feet tall. It's just gigantic, and I don't know what to do with it. It was rubbing against the house, but they trimmed it, and that was great. They cleaned up all the mess, which was just wonderful, instead of leaving me a whole bunch of magnolia leaves that I didn't want. I'm going to have them come back again at some point to trim some other things. Five years ago, during that terrible snowstorm, one of the branches split and came down, and they helped us with that. I'd rate them A.”

“They're professional, thorough, and thoughtful. They do a number of things for me. They fertilize on a monthly basis during the summer and trim every other year. Shawn, my representative, always seems to check in with me before I even realize I need him to, so he anticipates that I need their services, which I appreciate. I chose them because of Shawn. They get an A.”

“Tony comes by every once in a while when I ask him to. He's just wonderful, and I really appreciate his time. He’s a good guy, and what I like most about him is that he’s knowledgeable, helpful, and caring. His work is usually just an analysis and discussion of what we need. I have no complaints. I chose them because he's personal and friendly, and I wouldn't go to anybody else.”

“I like their knowledge about tree care and their reactions to customers. I chose them because they know their business very well and they're very accommodating to customer requests. They're very good at their work. What they do for me ranges from light trimming to removal of large trees. I'll rate them as an A.”

“Care of Trees sprayed my boxwoods quite a while ago. I've had this service for a few years, and they're very dependable and good, so I plan to continue using them. Every two years, they also trim my large tree in the backyard and check the cables. I usually have Shawn as my contact person. I've been very satisfied. I'd give them an A.”

“They came on time, did a good job trimming our tree, and made it look nice. We chose the company in the past, and they did a good job, so I thought they deserved some loyalty. They've done tree trimming and tree removal. I'd give them an A.”

“They're always very professional in their dealings, so I appreciate that. I've been happy with them, so I've been using them for several years. They usually do trimming of loose branches on my trees and also fertilizing. I'd rate them as an A.”

“They just come out on a regular, scheduled basis and take care of everything, so they’re dependable. I've been using them for a while. On a regular basis, they do hemlock treatment on the trees, and then from time to time, they'll do tree trimming and maintenance stuff. I'd say they deserve an A.”

“They're a good company. They've done work for me for about six or seven years. They make appointments and send good workmen out. They’re neat, and they do a good job. They do what they say they'll do. They trim large trees and feed shrubs and plants. I'd give them an A. They do nice work.”

“They were wonderful. They did exactly what they said they were going to do and did it well, so I was pleased. I had a big, old willow oak that needed cleaning up, and they knew what they were doing because it’s beautifully shaped now. I would grade them as an A+.”

“I arranged for the work, they showed up, and they did it. It was easy. The work was done satisfactory for me. They pruned a very tall tree that was dropping branches and then they fertilized the tree. I chose them because their price was a little bit better. I think it was also based on the schedule that was available.”

“The Care of Trees did tree trimming for me. They were on time, they completed the work on time, they were clean, and they were true to their quote. I chose them because my neighbor used them; I saw them working over there, and I asked them to do some work at my house. I would give them an A rating.”

“They were responsive, followed up quickly. They didn't necessarily try to sell me services but gave me good advice. They worked with me a different approach to manage my trees. I would grad them a B. They should work on being able to tell me with more precision when they were going to schedule work.”

“They sprayed our trees for scale bugs, and they explained what they were doing. We were making last-minute changes, and they were happy to make those. I chose them because I’d had some experience with them years ago. I would rate them as an A.”

“They were very good. They did the work as they said they would. They came back a second time to make some minor adjustments, and they did what we had agreed they would do. They did a good job on a difficult project, so I would grade their business as A+.”

“They were easy to work with, and they got our issue taken care of pretty fast. I had two trees fall in my backyard, and they came out and took care of those trees. They came through our insurance company. I would rate them as A+.”

“They were prompt, and they came when I asked them to. If I had an issue, I think they would back me up. We had them look at a spruce that a neighbor thought was going to fall on their house, but it turned out to be a solid tree, and it’s not going to fall. They gave us some solid tips. They are very good, and I would give them an A.”

“They had a reasonable price, they acted quickly, and they raised the property value of my house to about $30,000. They took down two big trees in the front of the house, they shaped a tree at the corner of the property, and then they taped another tree at the front of the property. I would grade them an A.”

“They did what I asked them to do, and there were no problems. I was satisfied with their work. They cut some branches on some trees for us; they did pruning. They replied to my phone calls and emails, and they sent someone out to meet me face-to-face and discuss what I wanted. I would grade The Care of Trees as an A.”

“The Care of Trees did an outstanding job. The workers showed up on time, were very courteous, and worked very hard. They removed two trees—a huge oak in the backyard and a blue spruce in the front yard. They did it all in one day and ground the stump so the yard would look nice. I would give them an A+ because they did an excellent job.”

“I arranged for the work, they showed up here, and they did it. The work was done satisfactorily to me. They pruned a very tall tree that was dropping branches, and then they fertilized the tree. I chose them partially because I thought their price was a little bit better than anything else I was looking at, but it was also based on their schedule. I would rate The Care of Trees an A.”

“They were responsive. They did things in a timely manner once we asked them to do an estimate, and then they followed up and scheduled a visit. Their tree care expert seemed knowledgeable, too. They did some elm borer treatments; we had a fungus or something, so they largely provided tree care for that as well as for invasive pests. I’d rate them as an A.”

“I thought they were going to do the work a little earlier that they did, but the work was fine. It was a positive experience. It was a small job, and they were probably trying to get to other customers on their schedule in my area. They took down a semi-dead weeping cherry tree, and they pruned some other trees. They’d done some previous work for me on a large magnolia tree and a holly tree the year before they did this work. Taking into consideration the two jobs that they've done for me, I would grade them an A.”

“They showed up when they said they would, and they were meticulous in cleaning up the mess after trimming two trees. The only negative thing about the situation was that I had originally signed the contract in August, and they did one end of the contract, but they didn't do the other—I had to prompt them to schedule the tree trimming. I’ve had a relationship with Care of Trees for a number of years now. I’d give them a grade A-.”

“They provide a service for our rental house; they come, they do their work, and that's it—the problem is solved. They treat a hackberry tree for some type of weird fungus that comes back year after year. To prevent that fungus from coming, they treat the tree by injecting something into the ground. It seems to work, and that's what I'm looking for. I chose them because they were recommended to me. I would give them an A.”

“They were very prompt. The estimate was clear and detailed, which was very helpful, and they were prompt in getting people to come out and do the work. At one point, we had an issue with the people who were cutting the tree, and they were very good about sending people back out to fix things the next week—no difficulties there. They were very gracious about it, so on the whole, I was impressed. I would definitely call them again. I would grade The Care of Trees as an A.”

“Some positive and some negative, they are tree care service. I pay them to take care of a dutch elm in front of my house, for which they do a fine job. I also hired them to do some work on the property that I own. I terminated their services and they did a terrible job. Their technician had no idea what he was doing. He treated the wrong areas. They took soil samples and they lost them. So it was mixed.. I have since moved on to another company. I would grade them a C-.”

“The person that came out to do the plan, I had a very positive experience with. Then it took weeks to get the work done and I had to call several times. When they came to do the pruning, the pruner did not follow the plan that had been set out. One part was positive one part was negative. I was very disappointed at waiting so long and that the plan was followed. They did pruning for me. No lawsuits, I would grade them C which is right in the middle.”

“I think they’re great. They came twice to spray my trees, and we think they’re great. We used to use another business to do our trees, but they got bigger and started doing commercial nurseries and places like that, so they got very expensive and less available. I asked my neighbor who he used, and he recommended that I call one of the arborists from The Care of Trees. It turned out that that arborist had been a student of the other company we’d used, and we liked him a lot. He seemed to know the trees, and we've been with him ever since. I would grade them an A-. I think they do excellent work, but they are getting busier. They do good work with the trees, but we've begun to notice that it's hard to get them to come out.”

“The guy seemed really educated, and he knew what he was talking about. We had them look at the tops of the trees, because after we had another company do it, the trees seem to be shedding too much. They looked at the trees to see what they could tell us, and not only could they tell us that the trees were OK and that what we were experiencing was natural shedding, but they didn't want anything from us—they gave us the advice for free. He asked me about the last time the trees were fertilized, and I told him, ‘We could probably do with some fertilizing.’ I agreed for him to come and put in some fertilizer, and he did. They deserve an A+.”

“I thought it was pricey but the service was OK. I don't have anything for comparison. They removed a dead tree which we hadn't had done before. I would grade them a B, just because they were expensive. I would recommend them.”

“The Care of Trees trimmed a large magnolia tree in my front yard. We had little interaction, but they did more than I expected they would. The services that they provided were above and beyond. I would grade them as an A.”

“They did what they said they were going to do, when they took the tree down and they ground up the stump, they cleaned it up and hauled it away like they said they were going to do. I would grade them an A.”

“I had a great experience with The Care of Trees. They trimmed my trees. They’re very professional and skilled. I’ve recommended them, and I would definitely use them again. They’re A+.”

“The Care of Trees gave me good service, explained what they were doing, and were easy to talk to. They treated the scale bugs on the tree, and they did pruning. They did a grade-A job.”

“I like their professional service. They’ve put up trees and removed a tree for me. They get the work done really fast, and they are pretty clean and really nice. They should get an A.”

“They show up when they say they are going to. They spray a couple of our trees in the back. I would give them an A grade.”

“They did a good job, and they were reasonably priced. I used them when I was in real estate development—I had a lot of experience with them. They get an A+ from me.”

“The Care of Trees was very good. They deserve an A rating.”

“I would give The Care of Trees an A+ rating.”

“We were very pleased with the work they did.”

“They were able to take out a tree that needed to go. They were neat and got the job done. The quality of work was very good. They did a tree removal of about 100 year old oak tree that we had in our back yard. It's in an urban area, so it was kind of tricky, but they were able to get it done. The cleanup was very good. They stacked everything very neatly and we didn't have any complaints. They came back and got the remaining pieces of the tree the very next day. I believe I chose them because of the price. It was good, they got the job done and a couple other companies didn't want to attempt the removal because of where it was, but they were able to come in and do it. I would say they get an A.”

“They came out and diagnosed some problems for me and there was no charge for that, which was lovely. We took care of some of them, and they were OK with me putting some of them off. They were flexible, I liked that about it. I had two trees trimmed and then they also came back and fertilized them both. I had them come out and look at one of the trees a couple of years ago, but I am also in the construction industry and have used them professionally. I'd give them an A+, no worries.”

“From my memory, it was pretty good. It was bracing of a big oak tree. It was my first time using them. I think it worked, they did a very good job. They were fast, professional and they did a careful job picking up all the stuff they left. The people who are not very careful just leave and they don't clean up afterward. The tree was very well taken care of. I would give them an A+. They were very good. I've seen quite a few people working on trees and this one was really good. They were very nice and trying very hard to make sure everything was fine.”

“I think they're wonderful and they are reasonable with price. I think once was to take down a tree and one was to trim it. They give it vitamins. They give my, they made a total difference in my tree. They give vitamins too. I don't know if they grind up the limbs. All I know is they're not here when I get home. Well I've used them maybe five times. Maybe more. I don't know. I've got a good relationship with the company. I would give them an A+ and you can't give that to anybody in D.C. Mainly because they do a good job. They come when they say and they're the least expensive. Great quality and a low price.”

“We're very pleased with the quality of work. They trimmed our several of our trees and did, well I guess we're still due to have them come back for spring and do some fertilizing work also around the cherry tree. The arborists were wonderful. I have used the company before. I'd say I've used them probably five years. We did some work five years ago and then we did the work this past year. We'd definitely tell a friend or relative that they're very high quality and very easy to work with. I'd rate them as an A.”

“They're wonderful. They're fabulous. They try to educate their customers which, you know they don't talk down to you because you don't know the information. Love them. We love them. I have been really happy with their service. They cut back the, some trees but more importantly they saved one tree. A maple tree that was huge and it could have been very easily, he could have said, you know I think you need to take it down because it's split down the middle. But they added a little, not a harness, but they braced it and that was about seven eight years ago and it's still going. It's just really it's beautiful. I think the wound has healed and you know, they could have easily got more money by taking down the tree. I've been using them for some time. They're very good about cleaning up the yard. I mean they clean up. You don't know that they've been there. I call them as needed. It is easy to schedule. Probably around the spring time they don’t' come out right away. They'll give you a week or so time but it's fine. They grade an A+++. I think it's because this guy really took his time and that we appreciate. We appreciate having talked to somebody who's knowledgeable about trees because we love our trees.”

“They do a lot of things. They do spraying. They do trimming. I don't know how long I've been using them, maybe ten years. They have a very good arborist who comes out and meets with me and advises me on what needs to be done. They do clean up properly. I would give them an A.”

“I think I did not have a problem. They did tree work. The quality of the work was good I think as far as I know. It's been a while ago. I would use them again. I've used them in the past. I would tell a friend or relative to expect, I don't know, just get the work done. Just give them an A.”

“Care of Trees was able to help me. Just basically pruning and taking care of fertilizing trees. Not that extensive. It was my first time using them. I found them through the Best Pick Reports, that book that's published. Just the person seemed knowledgeable. They grade an A.”

“Care of Trees was able to help me. Their work was fine. I hired them to trim a very large oak tree and I think that's all we had them do. I would contact them in the future. They cleaned the yard well when they were finished. The customer service was fine. Well they came out here to look at the trees. I'd give them an A.”

“I love them. I think they're very professional. The people they send are knowledgeable and they're easy to work with. They did trimming trees. It is not my first time using them. I've been using them about ten years. Eight, ten years. Well I like Tony, the first man who came who isn't our local person and then I had some more work and I called them back and they sent somebody who was a registered arborist and he was just charming and knowledgeable and really good. I would tell a friend or relative that their prices are fair. They're not inexpensive but they do exceptionally good work. I would say between A and A+. I would say A+.”

“Very high professionalism and knowledge about the arbor situation in our whole neighborhood not to mention our house and very high again, the knowledge base and the information that they brought to our situation and always timely, always responsive, always respectful to the property, our dog, you know our situation and family. I mean they were just terrific. We have very old trees and we trim them every year and we just want to be very careful that they're healthy and not posing any issue with respect to our home or the homes around us. I would give them an A+.”
