I have used Ricky for all my tree work for years in Duluth. He knows all about trees and caring for…read morethem. I've always found Ricky to be honest and reliable. As a professional landscaper (who doesn't do tree work) I appreciate his professionalism and attention to detail. I like sending him out to do tree work in a landscape and know that the result will be thorough and neat, and the site will be cleaned. I recommend Ricky to all my neighbors.

When I called him the next day and asked him to come and fix it, he said he would but never showed up. Now I am having to pay a different company to finish his job. He also moved some of my house debris with his crane and left it in a pile in a neighbors yard. It took me about an hour to move it all and clean up his mess. I do not recommend this service.

Outstanding performance by this team. The site Manager, Alex…read morewas fast to respond to my inquiry, provided, a competitive estimate, and supervised the entire operation on site. This was a big job involving the removal of around 20 huge, tall pine trees, surrounding my residence and my neighbor's residence in an efficient and professional manner without mishap of any kind. The effort required great skill on the part of workers to avoid damage to the residences and involves the use of a large crane to remove some of the trees. Clean up was thorough and the entire process was a pleasure. I highly recommend this company.

Went over what we were doing again. Once they got here they did exactly what Alex told me. They used ropes around the tree so the branches would not go into my neighbor's yard. They cut down branches and half the tree which, now I can have more sun in my backyard. Also removed two smaller trees that were ruining my grass. So very excited about the job that they have done and I would refer them. I would definitely use them again.

The big companies that came and did a site assessment had no clue what to do. Matt and David arrived before the truck driver with the swim spa and under 2 hours they had offloaded, lifted over my home, and placed inside the enclosure in my backyard!

Zeta came through my neighborhood like a wrecking ball and took down 100+ year old oaks. Neighbors…read moreon either side of my house got their roofs cleaved and crews were buzzing around the clock. I heard horror stories of $16,000 removals and saw a swinging crane knock down my neighbor's chimney with a huge suspended log. My tree problem wasn't as big of a deal. I was lucky. That said, I called a few places and they either didn't want to be bothered by a 25 year old Leyland cypress over my sunroom, or wouldn't come out for a quote for a week, then said they'd schedule me for JANUARY (2 months later). I called Cathy in the afternoon and she booked Chris to give a quote in the morning. I hadn't had many quotes, but they were all above my comfort -- obviously there was plenty of work out there for months to come. Chris told me he could cut it safely and haul it for the lowest price. He also had a guy who would eliminate the stump and upturned roots for $100. But how long would I have to wait? "We can do it tomorrow afternoon between jobs." They brought a crew of 6 and saved my fence in the process (the tree was leaning over my fence, within two inches of the top). 4 of them hauled sections while two managed/climbed/cut. Chris came in to check and give instructions at the start and at the end of the project. He also reviewed the completion to make sure it was to my satisfaction. On the way out, at my prompting, he gave me some quotes on standing trees that I may want to take down in February when it's cheapest. Above and beyond: Since this was a neighbor's tree, Chris gave me good recommendations on what needed to happen with the remaining 15 Leylands that look at the end of their lifespan, crafted a letter for me to use as a template, and worked with me to make our 50/50 neighbor split easy. They kept in phone and text communication any time I had a question. He even wore a mask for our review without my request. Bonus: His stump grinder contact was reliable and reached out the next day without any prompting. Now it's like nothing happened! I hope to never have to call them again, but if I need some trees cut down, I'll call Cathy and Chris.

Thank you for a job well done, and for your prompt response and wonderful customer service!!…read more We had a long time project we needed to get done. Trees too close to our home and brand new roof. We were contacted immediately and they came out, discussed our wishes and gave us recommendations. They came up with a plan and quickly executed the plan accordingly. I can't say enough about how nice this couple are, and how they worked us into a schedule as quick as they could. Their pricing was good as well! The did a great job, cleaned up afterwards, and even left choice logs for me to use for firewood upon my request. Very professional and courteous crew. They were extra careful when it came to removing the big tree limbs that overhung our deck and our roof. Awesome job from a real stand up company! I will definitely be calling them in the future should the need arise. Thank you so much! Chris Pyles

M & M was called to complete a stump grinding job by the company that cut down a large tree for me…read more The two gentlemen that showed up were extremely dirty, but I attributed it to the nature of their work. They completed the job, but initially left a few large roots. They went back and redid them, but also pushed a large pile of dirt to the side of my lawn. When I commented about the dirt pile, I was told, "Don't you have a husband?" That, coupled with a few other inappropriate flirty comments and wandering eyes (I believe his name was Art), left me feeling uneasy. I just wanted these guys to go. A few days later, I contacted M & M through their website and I was told to call Mark through an email. I called him and he explained that the state they left the area in was typical of stump grinding due to all the roots (which I can accept as I know nothing about stump grinding). After several attempts to get a word in, I tried to convey that I was also very put off by the unprofessional nature of the employees that did the actual job. These remarks were mostly ignored and went on unaddressed as I continued to listen to how I should accept the dirt pile and that M & M doesn't do "clean up." Mark offered to return $20 of the $100 I spent on the job, which I kindly declined. I am so disappointed with how I was treated in both cases. I cannot recommend anyone do business with a company that treats their customers like this.
