Highly recommend Ultimate Tree Service. Bernie is a long time community member and always does a nice job. I don't even get other estimates, I just say do the job and he always treats me fair. Took down a tree recently and I can't even see the stump, trimmed a few high branches as well, nice and neat. Thank you Bernie! read more

They cut a tree down on my neighbors property and left the stump grindings all over mine probably four garbage cans!

I had Bernie and his crew come out today to cut down multiple huge pine tree branches all around the perimeter of my home. They were prompt, arrived at the appointment time, were efficient, careful, professional, and meticulous. They used their trucks with cherry picker buckets and were experts in cutting and and removing all the branches I requested. They cleaned up every leaf, branch and all debris afterwards. I was so relieved when the job was done and so super impressed with their efficiency, timeliness, work ethic and expertise. I would recommend them to anyone who needs tree removal or branch services, or even tree pruning because they did that also for me and I was so appreciative. read more

Ultimate works with Bar Bay Tree Services who took down my tree in Toms River. Excellent job!

I have used this company a couple of years ago after a tree came down on my neighbor's car. They arrived in no time. I got the matter taken care of quickly like I needed. I am writing this today because a nearby neighbor had Ultimate Tree Service out yesterday. I am quite impressed how clean the area is. You can not even tell there was a tree there! This company gets the job done the right way! read more

We experienced good communication reasonable pricing and fast service!! Thank you Bernie and his crew

This company comes off as being well equipped and best around according to owner. They came here for a day rate which I guess in there minds is 5 hours if that they didn't show up till 8:30 didn't start unloading until 9. They were cleaned up and gone by 2:45 with stumps and a mess left behind and barely doing anything they have more excuses about equipment breaking etc. I ended up hiring ARBOR TREE EXPERTS and what a difference for 1k more then ultimate charged for 1 day arbor complete the job in 2 days and left it ready for grass seed. read more

I had a great experience working with Bernie. He's very easy to work with and his proposal was competitive. His crew arrived on time and took down 3 Ash Trees that fell victim to the Emerald Ash Beetle, a 50+ft Oak tree in my backyard that was ruining my pool, and a few other various problem trees and bushes. I would absolutely work with him again and I was very happy with the value for the service. Never let anyone work on your property that isn't insured/bonded/registered etc. Especially for something like tree removal where an accident could result in serious injuries or property damage. While Bernie's proposal wasn't the least expensive, it wasn't the most expensive either and I had the peace of mind that if there was an incident I was working with someone fully insured and registered with the state. read more

We called Ultimate for a particular tree removal that 2 other local companies looked at and both said they didn't want to do it as it was a VERY difficult and dangerous job. Bernie showed up and looked at the job and never flinched. This guy had complete confidence in doing the job which was a huge relief to us. Not only did they do this job flawlessly but showed up on time and guided me through my concerns as the job was underway. Bernie is a true professional; patient and the guy you want on your job under the most challenging circumstances. read more

Ultimate Tree Service is outstanding. They really saved the day and our wedding. We are hosting it as a backyard garden party, but a diseased, nearly dead tree complicated our plans. After several service quote attempts with other companies, we found Ultimate Tree Service. With a day, Bernie responded during the weekend to assess our needs and timeframe for quotes. Bernie and his team are friendly and professional. They are like surgeons with chainsaws and other cool heavy machinery. Our tree was embedded between rhododendrons and hostas. His team took down the tree without damaging the rhododendron and grounded the stump without kill the hostas. In addition, his team removed branch and bush debris piled on the side of our garage and house. All of this was accomplished in under an hour. I look forward to Working with Ultimate Tree Service next spring as we focus on tree removal in our front yard. read more

Since Ultimate Tree Service of Howell deleted my review on their page, I'll share this here. This is what they did to my lawn while removing trees from my neighbor's property. Apparently they think I have no right to be annoyed that they used and damaged my lawn without my permission. There are brown spots and burn marks from their equipment and gas cans, drag marks from the trees they dragged across my lawn to the their chipper. Maybe I am from a different generation, but I was taught to respect other people's space. read more

Rather than calling people back, they waste time on Facebook fighting with people and calling them fake. It was a small job that was handled by another company, but Ultimate Tree doesn't care for comments that no one responds. read more

Once again Bernie and the crew came when they said they would, they did a great job, were very professional, and the price was right. I would never, ever, use any other tree service. Thank you Bernie. read more

I contacted Ultimate Tree Service for an estimate on trimming down a large overgrown tree. Bernie responded that same day, went to the house the following day, and provided an estimate. I was looking to get the work done within a certain timeframe since it was a rental property and I live out of state. Unfortunately, I had some family matters come up which delayed my response. I contacted Bernie and he was extremely sensitive to the situation and managed to schedule me in. He sent me pictures when the work was complete and the tree looked great! It was a pleasure doing business with them. Thanks Bernie! read more

Excellent work. We had a huge tree removed and substantial trimming and pruning on other trees and shrubs. These guys really know their trees and did a superior job finding and pruning dead wood. The pruning was done in early spring and everything is really beautiful and healthy now. The crew was very courteous, helpful, and careful with our property. Ultimate is a super professional operation - from scheduling to clean-up, they do a great job. read more

Bernie and Company were hired to remove trees that fell down during Sandy. He destroyed my lawn during the process, apologizing profusely and saying he would fix the problem. Instead, he left the job undone, and left several hundred pounds of woods laying on my lawn. When I told him I would not pay him for destroying my lawn, he sued me. I had to pay him off. Literally pay him off to go away. I of course, had to hire another service to fix his damage. I have the photos, and Bernie's threats to me when I refused to pay. Feel free to email me for many photos of the damage done by Ultimate Tree Service. Bernie, especially, is one of worst human beings I have ever met. STAY AWAY! read more

Our experience was everything we could have wanted and more!!! Bernie was professional and knowledgable at our first meeting. Today the crew showed up in spotless trucks and clean, sharpened tools the way it should be for the health of the trees that they were pruning...They were efficient, neat, professional and extremely pleasant to deal with. In addition their prices were very reasonable. I don't see this kind of service very often. I highly recommend!!! Pam, Freehold read more

Let me begin by stating that I wish I could post more than 5 stars because Bernie and his staff were absolutely exceptional! We had approximately 30 large trees that needed to be removed immediately due to us re leveling our property for a fence. Bernie came out quickly for an estimate and fit us in an incredibly busy schedule. Bernie and his staff arrived on time and cut all the trees down to ground level. They took away everything and cleaned up the debris from the trees coming down. Bernie and his staff were professional, courteous, and beyond accommodating Before leaving, Bernie said if we needed any more trees removed once the re leveling started to let him know. The next week we needed 5 more large trees removed. Bernie came out that day and removed them. Regarding price, we would've paid more because the work done was that great! Thank you so much Bernie and staff!!!! read more

Wow. Bernie is awesome and his crew is fantastic. I requested a quote and Bernie came out same day. His price was very fair. They worked around my schedule to get the job done. Quick, efficient, and they did an amazing job. I highly recommend Ultimate Tree Service as they are to to their name. Thank you Bernie. read more

Last storm a tree fell on the house. Bernie and his crew came out when they said they would. They had very little room to work in and carefully cut down a giant tree and took it away as if it was never there. I would recommend them to family and friends. Very professional. Thank you Bernie and crew. read more

Ultimate tree service was a great company experience. I was recommended to them from a friend in my area and told to ask for "Bernie". Bernie Sr came out to see me and he was excellent. Bernie was truly interested in walking the properly and seeing what needs I currently had and may have in the future. His pricing was fair and Bernie was present for the actual labor as well. His team was profession and efficient. I have referred 3 other people to Bernie and the Ultimate tree service team since then. *They missed the 5 star rating due to an unprofessional estimator during my first interaction. BUT the management team contacted me and addressed it quickly. So I don't want this to take away from this teams strong relationships. My suggestion "ASK FOR BERNIE." read more

Bernie is one of the best business men I have ever done business with in my 30 plus years in business. His attention to detail, cleanliness, and sense of perfection are second to none. I would highly recommend him to both residential and commercial property owners. His crew was absolutely perfect at both my home and my buisness (DiCostanzo Funeral Home). If anyone would like a more detailed reference feel free to email me at suitntie@msn.com. It would be my pleasure to discuss Bernie Gernay and Ultimate Tree Service. read more
