While I wasn't watching, they removed major healthy large limbs and stripped the tree of its leaves saying, "That's how photosynthesis works." No, it works via the leaves, as we all learned in 6th grade. We were shocked. Neighbors stopped by as they, too, were shocked. Our beautiful, healthy 40 foot tree died soon after. We agreed I would not pay him for killing our tree. I later read trees like this can increase home values by $10,000. To this day, I remain sickened by what happened and wish I would have sued for damages. We wanted twigs/thin dead branches removed in our back yard trees, too. This is a row of trees. Instead he cut them so each tree extended the same length into our yard - something I was not at all interested in. I cannot tell from the other reviews but maybe they used them for tree removal only. They might be good for that.

The owner, TJ was responsive and got his partner Tom over to access the situation despite the short notice and rainy weather. We agreed on price and they came the next day. However, the hill had been planted the week before trying to stabilize the incline. I notified the team of the plantings. When done, they said they were careful and didn't damage anything. My gardener accessed the area the next day, and they had damaged three of the recent dogwood plantings. Only one could be saved. When I notified Tom at the company he said there was nothing he would do to make it right. Not even an apology. Overall, they were responsive given the urgency of the situation, and I am pleased with the team of men that cut the tree out. They worked together well, they were friendly and knowledgeable to get the job done. I guess a couple of plants are spoils of war.

NWI has completely earned my trust as a competent, customer-focused company that has gone above and…read morebeyond expectations more than once for me. I understand that tree removal is not an easy task - ever. They always have to deal with less then ideal environments with trees in horrible positions, ready to damage anything around them. I've never heard of a tree removal for a tree standing in the middle of a field with a nice road right up to it and no buildings, fences, mucky swamp water, steep hillsides, or structures getting in the way. I'm sure they guys would love that, but it never happens, no. Every job is always a nightmare that they have to study and plan around so the area isn't damaged. I'd never make it in that industry. About a week after a strong storm did damage to a lot of trees last year (May '25), I had a sick tree fall on some dog training equipment I have in my side yard. I needed to get that tree off the equipment quickly. I called three different tree/landscape companies nearby and not only did NWI call me back first, but they made room to take care of me in the middle of a very busy week for them - they were booked solid do remove the hundreds of trees down due to the storm a week earlier (I'm sure they were working late into the evenings then too - you know... storm cleanup)... but they came THAT AFTERNOON to remove the 60'-70' fallen Red Pine. They did it in fifteen minutes, then took another fifteen minutes for cleanup, then they had a truck come and remove the debris from the roadside that evening. Done. I didn't expect that kind of service in the middle of a disaster cleanup, but they came through for me. That's just one shining example of why NWI will always be my tree and landscape guys. They've remove other trees and ground the stumps for me; they trimmed back tree branches from the roof of the house, etc... To top it off, they're always nice to work with, personable, efficient. Every one of the broads they've got working in the office, answering the phone, and orchestrating logistics are just as sharp as anyone I've dealt with. It's nice to get hold of someone who knows what's going on around her, what the guys in the field can and cannot do in a moments notice - the girls simply have their finger on the pulse of everything going on - and that's THE person you want to deal with when you need help. It doesn't matter who answers the phone, they all are sharp as razors. I don't care what anyone says; when a company comes through for you once, you remember that... when they do it three times with consistent results; well that's when they become your go-to company. I tip my cap to the owners. A company's spirit follows the spirit of the owners, no matter what... always. Working with them tells me that the owners give a rip about their customers and I cannot say enough good things about them.

Prompt and professional, but project overbid at my expense…read more I had an uprooted tree from a storm and wanted it removed quickly. I didn't get any other bids so that's on me. The issue is that I was bid a price based off of their employees having to climb. I was told I'd receive a 20% discount if the lift could be used, as that'd reduce the labor costs. What ultimately happened was the lift was brought, but not even taken off the trailer as no one had to climb, they removed the tree from the ground. I asked for the 20% discount but was only offered 10%. By my logic, they could've parked the lift next to the tree and not even use it, and I would've received the full 20% discount. I'm all for efficiency but I feel in this case their efficiency was to my detriment. Having to pay more for what feels like less left a bad taste in my mouth.

I would give them more stars if it were possible…read more My fiance and I had not one but two large trees fall on our house and shed during a big storm. There were also lots of large tree branches in the yard, and one of the trees that hit the house partially buried (and crushed) my fiance's car. This all happened on a Friday night. Saturday morning, we started calling around to see about getting the tree off our kitchen and got in touch with Tim Morgan, an arborist who works with Timberline. He referred us to them and put in a call asking if they could help us out. Due to the extensive damage we had (and the fact that our yard/house looked, as Tim put it, "like an upside down jungle"), they were able to get a crew with a crane over in about an hour and a half, despite their very, very busy schedule (it was a bad storm, and we weren't the only people who needed their services). These people were AMAZING. They went straight to work and didn't stop moving/working until about four and a half hours later, at which point the "jungle" had been reduced to a large pile of mulch (which we asked them to leave so we could use it for landscaping - ordinarily they would have carted this away, so it's not their common practice to leave it) and some large tree trunks piled neatly in the street for removal by the city. All of the people working on the project were super-nice and friendly. We were incredibly grateful to them for their fast, professional service, and would recommend them to anyone who needs tree removal done fast and well.

Before Brenda arrived we had three competitive bids; of these we've hired two companies for prior projects and were very satisfied with their work. We had not worked with Brenda but noticed she also had great reviews plus she is local. When Brenda gave us a competitive written bid on the spot we decided to go with her company. Brenda's team of Jamie and Clarence arrived two days later and we started by walking through the work order. These two were personable, polite and very knowledgeable in their profession. They pointed out several trimming issues relating to how the trees would look if they trimmed too much, so we went with their advice. We are so happy with the results! They took a lot of branches out while leaving the trees shaped perfectly! After Jamie and Clarence left for the day the three more guys showed up with the chipper and cleaned up everything. We could not be happier with the results! In summary we highly recommend Cameron Tree Service.
