Report
I had a small tree partially come down during a windstorm. Arbor Steve came out a short time later and immediately pointed out a large tree I had not noticed that had also partially fallen and was headed right for my house! We scheduled the trees to be cut down a short time later and it is a huge relief to know they are taken care of. The area where the trees were looks great. The service was fast and affordable. Also, the technicians were friendly and took the time to answer all of my questions. We have a lot of trees around our house and we will call Steve Cushing to come out and advise

Report
Steve Cushing came out and did a very thorough and professional evaluation of our hemlocks. We were surprised to learn how much of a risk they posed to us due to decay in their trunks. We would recommend him without hesitation.
