    After we agreed with the price, signed the contract and I gave them a deposit to remove a broken tree in my backyard the owner came back next day and said they can't do it for that price. What a waste of time! You can't depend on them they unreliable! .

    Gabriel gave me a quote but when we were finalizing the transaction I realized I had miss heard him and the quote was actually 10k more. Okay fine, sorry but I miss heard you and can't afford it. I thought that was the end of it but no, he calls me to say he will be laughing all day due to my misinterpretation of the quote. Umm, why call me and tell me that? Very unprofessional.

    This company is A+ in my book. They were on time, cleaned up everything and did it all before I went to work. 0 complaints from me I absolutely recommend. Son and dad were cool Gave me a price I couldn’t refuse!! Cut down about 6 trees in total including stumps

    Called them in the A.M on Good Friday to have a big tree cut and stump grinded. Owner kept in contact during the day as to wheather they could make it today or have to wait till Monday. Late afternoon I got a call from owner that they were on their way. I am very happy with the outcome and would recommend them to anyone. Yard was cleaned of all branches/limbs from the tree. Thanks guys for a great job.

    Came out and gave me a quote to cut a tree down. I told him I would give him a call after I called around and the guy totally lost his cool very unprofessional. Afterward he called my phone offering me a discount of $1,000 I told him at that time his credibility was out the window. Very unprofessional company I will advise anyone using them to get a second quote.

    I had a load of wood delivered yesterday. I told the guy to put the load in front of my camper. I got home and he put in front of my garage door putting 4 dents in it. I just had that replaced last year. It cost me $1600.00, and you recklessly threw the wood at it. And I was charged $250.00 and it isn't even a cord of wood. I've been calling and there is no answer. I will be calling my insurance company to see what to do legally. I will never go here again.

    If I could give this company zero stars I would. One is too many. Completely tactless man you have running around to give estimates. Stops you to ask if you’d like a free estimate. Severely under quotes and does. not. stop. pushing! He’ll harass and stalk you long after you’ve said no, and make grotesquely disturbing comments, that were so bad we went straight to the police! Just read the reviews to see how unprofessional this company is. Stay far away from them. What a joke!

    Called for an estimate for a tree my neighbor and I were splitting the cost of removal on. Guy came out and gave me a pretty high estimate compared to others, I then told him I needed to talk to my neighbor first. He then came down closer to what others had quoted us but I still needed to talk with my neighbor before setting something up. He became irate that I was not committing to the job minutes after receiving his estimate and started complaining about gas money and wasting his time. I then politely told him to leave and he proceeded to do a burnout in my driveway and on the street in front of my house.

    Son came out & gave me an estimate. I agreed to the quote given, signed contract & paid deposit. Next day, dad calls to come out & review order. Tried to change agreement & get more money out of me. Only wanted to do less than half agreement upon tree removal. Dad was very rude & not professional at all. Refunded my deposit & left. Would not recommend their services as I read many reviews with the same complaint. They quote you one price, then try to change agreement & get more money from yoy.

    They send the "kid" out to give you a lowball quote and then the "dad" comes and explains why you need to pay more using your sympathy to screw you. It's a terrible business practice and they do bad work. Avoid at all costs.

    Last season they took down a giant pine tree in our front yard and grinded the stump and also took out small trees next to our house. Couldn’t be happier with their services. Definitely considering for another service soon!

    First of all I like to say they were very professional and did a great job coming out to cut my trees down. My only complaint after they were done I had cigarette butts left in my yard. Very quick and easy to work with. But now the bad news... There's a guy named Gabriel that now comes to my house three or four times a year... Insisting I should pay him to cut down three more trees that I do not want cut down.. I've told him time and time and time again I do not want these trees cut down it does not matter what price you give me I am happy with my trees.. he has not even made it a point to come by my house knowing my truck is not to speak to my wife about cutting down these trees... Now mind you I've had these trees cut down now for about 4 years that means he's come by my house 10 to 12 times over the last four years about these trees. I've even spoke to the owner when it first started happening and I told Mike I did not want Gabriel coming back by my house. And once again this morning he pulls up to my house... 01/24/2023... Don't get me wrong I understand he's trying to do his job and get work... But no is no and it's getting ridiculous. My wife has even called me from home saying that he's driving by the house. And she is getting scared not knowing what this guy's trying to... I am now even put up cameras because it's borderline harassment and or stalking at this point

    Economy tree service did a wonderful job removing a huge tree in my front yard. The owner and I discussed a reasonable price to remove the tree. The crew was on time and worked non stop answering all my questions . They did an amazing job with cleaning the yard and street of tree debris. I am very happy with the entire process.

    The company came out at 8:30am with all the equipment and men needed to cut down a large white oak tree. They protected the grass and window when needed. Also cleaned everything up, I have no complaints at all. The job was done in 3 hours even with grinding the stump.

    Absolutely horrendous experience. The son stopped by multiple times trying to get some work done, and each time lowering the price. After we agreed on a price and paid the deposit, we never heard from him again. Three weeks after they were supposed to come remove the agreed upon tree, I finally gave them a call and spoke to his father. He came by to discuss the work and was exceptionally rude. He told me that they didn’t even have the right equipment to take care of our tree that is probably 50ft tall and cantilevered over tue garage. He then very forcefully gave me my deposit back and very hastily took off.
    We agreed to a service, and even out money down for it, so this is extraordinarily unprofessional. If they do not have the proper equipment, that would be a them problem, and not a me problem. They agreed to something, and they should be held responsible for fulfilling the contract that was signed.
    And then the fact that the father (owner) was so utterly rude and disrespectful? I get it that he was frustrated with what his son did; and after reading these reviews, apparently it happens a lot. That still gives him no right to be rude and disrespectful to me. He can take it out on his son later, but I should have no part in that disrespect.

    They are very unprofessional. His son and I had an agreement which was a good one. Which entailed trimming 6 trees and splitting the wood then his father Mike calls me and said he can only do 3 because he can’t afford to pay his so called 9 workers. Well that is not my problem. I signed the agreement and gave him a$100 dollar deposit. Oh and then he said “I can’t split your wood so why don’t I take your trees and I will give you a free truck load. No way. My lumber from the 6 trees from my property would be worth at the least 6 to 7 truck loads. Spread the word that he is very dishonest. Horrible business.

    Helped me get my Cat Out the tree after 4 days of being stuck in the tree. Omar came out on a Sunday and helped rescue my 7 month old cat. Gary Fire Department said they don't assist with Animal rescue anymore.

    Total rip off! Price quoted for services. Deposit given with receipt and then were changed numerous times to try to get more money. Father stating son under quoted . Work stated to be completed not finished. Tree branches were cut off without removing full logs. Made excuses not to finish work because of electrical lines where the tree was not on or over. Finally to add injury to insult showed up without making an appointment unannounced and didn't put back yard furniture that was moved.

    I had hired economy tree service some years back when I lived in East Glen Park. I had a huge old pine tree in front of my house that I was afraid would fall on my house during a storm. I wanted the top half cut off and the deal was for them to haul away and cut it up and dispose of. Yea they disposed of it alright, right into an abandoned structure at the time across from my house. They took the huge 13-14 ft pine tree top onto their blue truck, drove around the block, and waited till I went in and dumped it not cut up but whole and thought I would never spot it. I called and complained, a couple days later, they came and got it. Two weeks later I found it again, a block over from my house this time in an abandoned corner lot. Gary already has a dumping problem and professional businesses should not be adding to it.

    Blocks entire street of work site when there’s plenty of room to make room for cars to allow to pass. Blocks residential driveways. Goes door to door soliciting early in the morning to people that did not request their services. A guy parks in front of my house and I look to see what they’re doing and he gives me a death stare the whole time like they aren’t in front of my property. We’ve had plenty of tree companies work in our neighborhood and there was never an issue with any of them because the others knew how to be considerate to the resident’s & professional. I ran a successful landscape company for many years and know this not how to handle things when in residential neighborhoods. The house you’re working at isn’t the only house on the block. This is not a review on the quality of their work because I did not hire them but rather their professionalism. 0/10.

    What a scam. Gabriel shows up quotes a good price, takes a deposit and contact signed. Mike shows up the next day wanting more money for the job, talking about his 9 employee overhead. Fortunately I didn't give him a cash deposit or write a check out to Gabriel personally.
