we had some some medium and small size limbs that needed clearing near our house. They did a good job doing it! but their price seemed out the ballpark! 2 guys less than 3 hours work, a couple of tree climbs to hack a branch, and some small limbs that needed a stick saw. For the price i paid i used to get 2 100' trees removed. Maybe that's the market these days, but ask around for bids. I sure will. Lesson learned. read more

When looking for estimates to have some trees removed and pruning done, I turned to Yelp and Angie's List for some good recommendations. I narrowed down to three companies to get quotes from, and I ended up getting a fourth because some random guys who were in my neighborhood dropped by one day. Northern Virginia Tree Experts ended up having the best price BY FAR for tree removal. Check out my review over on their page for information about that, but they did a GREAT job. Four Brothers actually came in second on the tree removal quote, but they were still about 40% higher than NVTE. (And oh by the way, NVTE offers a military discount, which FB does not.) Four Brothers' estimate (which they showed up two hours after they told me they would to do) did come in a little lower for their pruning services though, so I held off on that until after the big trees were gone and then emailed Four Brothers to have them come back out. It took them a while to get back to me, but they finally did. I emailed back and forth with who I presume is one of the owners/four brothers, settling the details, then he said they'd be out. There was a storm that week, so I didn't hear from them and when I followed up it turned out that they had bumped me down the list to address folks with emergency storm damage. Fair enough, just could have been a bit more communicative about it. Even after saying they would come back out, they didn't ever tell me when. As a matter of fact, I just happened to be sitting out on my back porch one day and noticed, hey, there have been some limbs cut off on some of the trees! So I guess they did a good job of removing the debris! However, they still left some ugly stubs on the trees in a few places and left a few low-hanging branches on my neighbor's side. What baffles me is that there are a couple of dead limbs hanging below areas they cut that they easily could have just reached over and pulled out (stuff I can't reach even with a ladder), but they left those hanging there as a hazard to anything underneath. Overall, they took a bit of rigamarole to get out, but they have a decent price for what they did and were nice enough and cleaned up any debris from the ground. But their attention to detail is only so-so, and despite the lower pruning price it's close enough to NVTE's I'd probably just have them do everything next time since the bulk of the cost (actual tree removal) is more expensive with Four Brothers. EDIT: I had to deduct another star because their payment options are so archaic and inconvenient. They don't accept any form of online payment, only cash or check. Which, they didn't tell me what day/time they were coming by so I wasn't here to give them cash. And who keeps checks around these days? I tried even transferring money directly to their account using PopMoney since they don't have a secure credit card option online. They wouldn't accept it. Like all they have to do is click the link and put in their account number. It's so easy these days to just set up e-commerce with Square or any other array of options that this is unacceptable. I ended up getting in some checks and finally mailing them one. Very nice guys, but all around just too inconvenient in comparison to people who also do a good job for a decent (and sometimes better) price. EDIT: 10/17/2016 -- One star. Can't even get them to email or call me back about doing an estimate this year. read more

Excellent service from Four Brothers. We needed a stump ground and sod installed and they did an outstanding job with both. I'd highly recommend Four Brothers for your landscaping needs. I'll use them again in a heartbeat. read more

Four Brothers came out on November 29, 2017 and took down a dying locust in the middle of our garden right next to our house. These guys did a GREAT job! They were professional, cleaned up after themselves, took care not to hurt our house or anything on our patio, and they only walked on hostas that were already dead for the season and they did NOT walk anything that would be hurt from the foot traffic. I would highly recommend calling these guys! They came out a week later and ground my stump out for me. Also doing a wonderful job. read more

Tree damaged by heavy snowstorms of February 2010...Four Brothers had by far the best price. They came out within two days and did the work as scheduled, quickly and completely, cleaning up and shaping tree nicely. Polite and professional at every step of the business transaction. Definitely will call them again when the need arises, and for other landscaping and tree care needs in the future. read more

Four brothers were awesome ! Very reasonable, professional, and quick response for estimate! 3 days later tree is cut down and they did a great job! Highly recommended ! AAA +++ in Manassas ! (By far best price of all too ) read more

YELP has turned us to call them because of the remarkable remarks from other yelpers. Made arrangement and promised to show up an assigned day but never did. How reliable of a business this is? Followed up a call and left a message just to find out their views for not showing up. But NOT an apology nor any sort of decent call back was ever made. Terrible business to deal with. UPDATE: We keep their business after we straighten out some issues as mentioned above. They have some reasonable, emergency situation to get hold of us. Mind you, Steve has done such remarkable job in coordinating with the work that needs to be done. Will definitely refer them and call them to work for us again. And on top of it, their price is reasonable!!! read more

Four Brothers Tree & Landscaping provided landscaping services to clear out everything in the back yard (leaves, plants, weeds, deck/footer boards), to weed & put down fresh sand on the patio, to mulch the planter beds, and install plants good looking plants as discussed in the side and back planter beds. .... We obtained several landscaping quotes and they had the best price. When they came onsite, they were punctual and did the work with integrity, and was kind enough to ask me whether I wanted to cover the gravel next to the A/C unit. They were courteous and professional throughout the entire process. They made our back patio 200% better!! Would highly recommend them in the future for all our tree and landscaping work. read more

They do good work, just expensive compared to others so make sure you get multiple bids.

I had a poplar tree that fell on my back yard 7 days before My house sold. Steve with Four Brothers was very responsive and got it all removed before the new owners moved in. All branches and limbs removed by his team. Highly recommended. read more

Nothing but good service and great communication from the initial contact. Extremely competitive pricing.We will not only recommend Steve and his crew to anyone who asked but we plan to use then for future needs as well! read more

Second time I've had them prune a large oak tree in my front yard. And will ask them again in a few years. They do a great job!

We had a tree come down next to our home. This company was the best estimate, came when promised, cleaned up, and filled the hole with bagged topsoil. The did a quick cut for a neighbor at no charge. Friendly, helpful, and professional. read more

I am so beyond pleased with this company and the job they did. I got a fair price and had an amazing job done. My neighbors and I are thrilled. I had a med size tree taken down and a large silver maple. The silver was in the corner of my yard, and had it come down poorly, could have possibly hit any of the four to five houses, but definitely taken out a fence or two. In fact, the manner in which they completed this job was amazing. read more

Used Four Brothers out of Manassas (2nd time) to prune a HUGE oak tree in my backyard. They are ah-mazing! Their arborists are so knowledgeable and friendly. They came out to give me an estimate within 24 hours of me calling and then when they came took extra safety precautions with the super large branches. They also cleaned up completely when they left, leaving the yard and tree looking better than I've ever seen it. Thank you to Steve Boardman and his team! Would definitely use them again. read more

I lost a tree recently to storms. I called early the next morning and the woman answered. We were able to get in touch with someone right away, had a quote within hours, and the tree was almost completely done before the end of the day. They came back the next day and finished it and cleaned up. I would recommend to anyone. These guys are great. read more

I've used Four Brothers for years now not only for my own house but also my company rental properties & listings. Four Brothers is an excellent company that offers great prices, phenomenal service, & top notch work. I highly recommend Four Brothers to anyone looking for quality tree and/or landscaping work. Their work is 2nd to none and the pride they take in their work shows! read more

Took out a dead tree and trimmed branches from a large oak tree. Worked quickly, cleaned up and were very kind. Great company to work with from the first call to job done. read more

Four Brothers removed a tree and roots in my back yard. They gave a fair price and worked hard to make sure I was happy with the result. Their customer service was terrific. When I asked about trimming some other trees in the front yard, I was given an honest assessment that it wasn't needed at this time. I've dealt with other companies that could learn from Four Brother's integrity and professionalism. read more

We've had Four Brothers out to prune, and then remove, two large trees that were growing over our neighbor's yard. It took all day, but the trees were removed safely and the area was cleaned up afterwards. Reasonable price, and excellent customer service. read more

Four Brothers came to remove a cypress tree that came down in the December ice storm. Fast service, and everything was left neat and tidy. Hopefully I won't lose any more trees, but if I do I know the company to call. read more

This company is great. Reached out to Four Brothers based on the Yelp reviews and was glad I did. Steve was very professional, responsive, and great to work with. They trimmed back our cherry tree and did some landscaping for us. The work looks great and I couldn't be more satisfied. I will definitely reach out to Four Brothers for future projects. read more

Steve and his crew are one of the best in tree pruning. They did mine at a reasonable price and the work was very professional. I would definitely recommend them. read more

We have used them three times now and not once disappointed. They show up, get right to work, clean up, etc. One of those times we noticed a tree that looked as though it could fall over at any time. It was a Huge pine and would have caused considerable damage if it had fallen on our property or our neighbors. They were out the next day. They will stay our "Tree Guys" from now on. read more

Four Brothers Tree and Landscaping is the best! Steve is incredibly professional, knowledgeable, trustworthy, and accomodating. I would highly recommend this company and will certainly turn to them for any tree/landscaping needs in the future. read more

Signed contract with them for work and have not heard back. Sent an email, and left two messages, 2+ weeks and nothing. Glad this happened before I started my project with them, now at least I can find a company that actually can communicate and get things done. read more

We've been dealing with Four Brothers for several years now; they were recommended by a friend of ours who is a tree-cutter and licensed arborist. Steve has always shown up to give us an estimate when he said he would; his prices are reasonable. The crews are effective and efficient, and they do, indeed, leave the area spotless. I can recommend Four Brothers without reservation. read more
