Tree reviews in Reading, Massachusetts

A&A Tree Service did an excellent job removing two large dead trees from my property in New Hampshire. The crew was on time, professional, and left the yard spotless all within about an hour. Pricing was fair, communication was clear, and they were very respectful of my property. I also really appreciate their support for military service members and the generous military discount they offer. Highly recommend!

I recently had several trees removed from my yard and reached out to AA Tree Services for a free estimate. CJ came by to assess the property and was incredibly professional, offering great advice on which trees to remove and which to prune. His experience really showed, and he helped me make the best decisions for my yard. The estimate was very reasonable, and CJ worked with me to stay within my budget.

My yard is fenced, so the team had to climb each tree and carefully tether every limb and trunk as they cut them. At one point, three guys were up in the trees, coordinating with the ground crew to ensure everything was handled safely and efficiently. They did an amazing job and cleaned up all the debris afterward. It was a pleasure working with CJ and his team, and I highly recommend AA Tree Services to anyone needing tree removal. You won’t be disappointed!

Proceed with caution. I hired these guys because they were “in the area” and it seemed like a great opportunity to get the job done quickly—which they did. However, when it came to grinding the stump and the large root system attached to it, it wasn’t done thoroughly.

When I went to plant afterward, I couldn’t because the roots underneath were still too large. I was told they don’t grind roots, but I had expected that anything under the stump would be cleared enough to allow for planting.

Just make sure you clarify exactly what’s included before committing.

BEWARE — Extremely Unprofessional and Frustrating Experience

Our experience with AA Tree Services was one of the most stressful contractor interactions we’ve ever had. The pricing alone was a red flag: the quote changed from $2,600 to $3,000 to $3,400 with no clear explanation. On top of that, the company was not transparent about which neighbors we needed to obtain access permission from. We went back and forth through over 29 emails simply trying to get clarification.

While we were waiting for the permit to be issued, CJ repeatedly pressed us about whether we were proceeding with the job—even though we told him multiple times that it was pending permit approval and we’d contact him once it was ready. When we pushed again for clarity on neighbor access, his response was dismissive and unprofessional, essentially saying, “we usually just get the job done,” instead of answering the actual question.

It became clear that CJ, the sales rep, was providing quotes the company itself wouldn’t stand behind. The overall communication was disorganized, unclear, and frankly rude. I used AA Tree Services a few years ago and had a positive experience, so I don’t know what changed—but this time around, it felt like dealing with a completely different company.

We’ve worked with many contractors, and this has been one of the worst communication experiences we’ve ever had. Reaching anyone other than CJ was nearly impossible, and despite asking multiple times to speak with someone else, the office never responded. At this point, leaving a review is the only way to get this experience on record.

Proceed with caution.

Outstanding job!!!

The team of 5 took 7 hours to remove 9 trees. 3 of which were huge oaks, each in fairly challenging terrain and very close to our home and sheds.
I couldn't be happier with their service, and will definitely use them again if needed in the future. Highly, highly recommend!

The sales guy came all the way down from Reading to Braintree on a Sunday morning and gave me a very competitive quote and scheduled the removal the same Tuesday. The crew worked fast, and took care of 7 tall trees ranging from 9 to 16 inches diameter including additional smaller dead trees and shrubs including cleanup in about 2.5 hours. Very happy with the tree removal service!

Cannot recommend this crew enough.
Did damage cleanup from last winter storm.
Crew was professional, courteous and respectful of the property.
Will use again for all future projects.
Carlos was especially helpful and made sure I was satisfied before the crew left.
Very highly recommended

It was great working with AA Tree Service- I had over 20 trees cut down and stump grinded, including a huge double oak. I worked with John who meant business when we first met, unlike the other guys I got quotes from who lacked energy completely. The team was scheduled promptly for the job, they came out in less than two weeks after I met John- They arrived around 7:30 in the morning and left around 4. The team worked incredibly fast and efficiently, and they were clean and neat. John was on site several times throughout the day to ensure quality, and was there for the final clean up. I’m incredibly pleased with the service I received and now I look forward to redoing my landscaping come the spring time. I will refer all my friends and family to John and AA Tree Service, and I myself have now found my go to company- All of my future tree projects will be done with AA Tree Service. Thank you again to John and the team!

Update: Here we are two weeks later, and I just worked with John and AA Tree Service for the second time- This job involved 15-20 overgrown arborvitaes I had at my investment property. John showed up to ensure quality and the team finished the job within an hour. No mess was left behind and the same great service was provided- Thanks again guys!
