Fallright Tree Service

After getting 3 quotes, this guy came in the cheapest by a long shot. Fallright quoted us $ 500 for our 2 very large black oaks stuck in a tight space between our house and fence and $ 150 for a reasonably small (roughly 20 ft) very accessible spruce– this includes halling away of brush and cutting 16″ rounds to stay for us to use as firewood. We were quoted $ 1850 for just the two oaks by another guy, and we had one verbal quote that a guy refused to put in writing for somewhere in the middle.
The day we called, Mark showed up and wrote up a quote on the spot, provided his insurance information and permit info.
Our neighbors had recommended him highly, so we went for it. He took a check for the permit fees and a written notice that we would allow him to do this work, and he went and got the permits the very next day. The day after that, they were removing the trees. His crew including himself was 4 people, but Mark was the exclusive tree climber. The rest helped when pieces were lowered, brush hall way, and cutting the pieces into 16″.
The first day they took out 2 trees between 8am and 2pm, and the last tree, being huge, and in a tight space over our home took 2 days to remove. One day 7:30am-2, and the next just a few hours. They were unable to use any heavy equipment due to the location, but he scaled the tree with harnesses and removed it piece by piece very carefully.
I watched almost the entire first 2 days of work, I’m amazed at their skill and attention to detail to avoid damages to my home & property. As far as I know the only casualty was an already in bad shape planter box, which we’ve had our dogs break before by bumping into it. Given that the oaks were less than 4 feet from a fence and less than 4 feet from the house with branches extending the length of the house, and tangled up in lines and other trees I would say it’s very impressive. If I should find any other problems on the property, I’ll update my review, but based on watching them work I don’t expect to find further issues.
Absolutely, totally, 100% recommended.
