Tree reviews in Byron Center, Michigan

If you have a smaller residential job, these guys are NOT the ones to go with! Ughhh. We called 4 times over 3 weeks before we got one of their two “estimators” to come out to give us a price. 4 weeks just to get a price. Estimator said “it will be about $600, we’ll be here next week to do it.” Another 2 full weeks go by, nobody came out, and no calls! So we call the main number again, lady says “I’m not sure what estimator you talked to, I’ll call you back.” Good lord you guys. Almost 8 weeks between when we first called to get a 2 hour job done. Hours listed on google are way wrong also. Not sure who is running this place but it’s mismanaged, disconnected, and they are not friendly.

Just exceptional! Like others have said, great cleanup. If the owner reads this, tell the 4 guys they were awesome, worked really well as a team. We really appreciated them getting this done quickly. Thank you so much.

First: Called and was told they would be out the next day between 12 and 5. I stayed home all day and waited. At 5 I called to see if they were just running late and left a voice mail. I never got a response. So there’s that. Next?

Second: I tried calling again a few days (maybe it was weeks?) later. This time they came when expected and gave me a very reasonable estimate on what would be a very big job. So, I scheduled it.

Third: They arrived when expected on a cold and bleak Dec day and worked as hard as I’ve ever seen men work. They didn’t finish until well after dark, still working hard in a cold rain. I couldn’t speak more highly of them and would recommend them to anyone. And, no, I don’t know them personally, just in case you wondered.

I called to get an estimate on a tree to cut down in my yard. They said they would have an estimator call me back to set up a time to come out. This never happened. I then called back a few days later and they didn't even have my information from the first time I called. I was then told I would be called back again and that has yet to happen. I'd imagine I'm probably not getting an estimate. They don't seem to be a timely or professional company.

Irish gave us a fair price quote on a complicated removal of a big tree. Everyone showed up as scheduled. They are very knowledgeable, careful and worked quickly. When they left, the yard was cleaner than when they arrived.

Gave quote for trim of 2 trees. Took payment. Trimmed 1 tree well. Asked to have all branches hanging over roof removed on second tree and left the majority of branches hanging over roof. Only trimmed off shiots. Busted our wood stairs and said they would come back and fix them. Call 3x no answer, never came back to fix their stairs they busted, no call back, no discount. Very poor service. Service was in Aug. 2020. Yes. This was this company.

Have used this company several times over the years for tree trimming. Initially very pleased but customer service has gone down the tubes. Estimator is supposed to get back with you but that is like pulling teeth. A service a couple of years ago took months of calls to get an estimate. Russ was given the messages but never returned calls. Busy with storm cleanup all those months was the reason. I finally called personally on his cell phone to get him out.
Going through the same thing this time. Numerous calls to the company to get an estimate and nothing but crickets. Got Russ's cell phone # again, left a voice mail and no returned call. They do nice work if you can get a hold of them. Customer service is poor. If my business is not important to them, I will get another company who wants to work with me.

me. they didnt. called 2 weeks later. told again someone woul call me. they didnt. called 3rd time about 2 months I passed since first call. they finally called. was given a quote. a week or so kater estimater came out with owner. the price went up 250.00. they came cut trees, and trimmed. made a mess of my yard. didnt clean up. knocked down railr I ad tie off wall. left it lay.they were supposed to cut wood.18 inches for fire wood. they cut about 1/3 of it.called them to let them know they didnt c omplete job. was told estimator is out sick. and asked to speak to owner. he never called back.Fast to cash your check though. Poor service. they just dont care.
not the best company out there anymore.
will not call again. ill find a better company.

Very competitive quote in comparison to two other companies. Quick and highly responsive to my voicemail for quote. The crew worked through rain, removed two stumps in a rock bed, and left our yard in great shape. Four trees in one day. Highly recommended.

We have ordered split firewood from Harvey in the past and it was great and we had no issues. This year we ordered wood and made sure to make it clear it was for an indoor wood burner. The wood got delivered and the pieces of wood are way too large for an indoor woodburner. When I questioned the size I was told the gentleman that splits the wood for them over the summer does not see to well due to his age. When my husband came home that night he was very discouraged to see the size of the logs. I called and left a message that night. Never heard back. My husband called later in the week, no response. I called the following week and was told the owner would be in contact with me. Nothing. I called one more time and was told I need to call the owner directly. Left a voicemail for the owner and still no response. We just moved into this house and splitting wood is the last thing we have time to do. We will never be ordering from this company. It's too bad they could have at least tried to fix this. I can't work with a company that doesn't even try to fix their wrongs.

Had some damage occur during tree removal that I didn't notice right away. Called 5 times to speak with the owner. No reply to date. Filled a complaint with the BBB. I cannot recommend this business.

Update- owner said he looked at my driveway (per BBB) and said it was cracked before they did the work. Yes it was but they cracked it in a different spot. Still had no contact from Irish. Document the condition of your property with photos BEFORE they start the work so if they damage something you have proof. The more detailed photos the better.

Completely unprofessional and I would not recommend this tree service to anyone. Accepted their bid and scheduled the tree removal, four weeks later they still hadn't done the job. After several attempts I finally received a return call saying next week. The morning of, they called and confirmed. Never showed up. Now the season to prune oak trees is over and we can not get the work done. The only positive reviews for this company is because they are cheap.

Crew arrived on time and worked hard, through inclement weather, to promptly and safely remove several trees, prune others and grind stumps. They cleaned up our lawn, driveway and roof after the job was completed. Highly recommend.

I requested a quote on a Monday shortly after noon, at 4 pm I received a call from Russ who was in the neighborhood and was at the house within 10 minutes. He gave us a very reasonable quote to bring in a crane, boom truck, chipper and stump grinder to remove 3 trees from in front of our home one of which was running between the wires to the house. Tuesday we gave him the go ahead and he said he could do it Thursday morning and his crew would be here around 9:30 am. The crew showed up at 9:27 Thursday morning and began working, the comment my wife made was they worked like a well oiled machine, each person knowing what needed to be done. By the time it was done my wife added 3 more trees, she was sending video's throughout the job as they were lowering down logs with the crane. They stacked the logs in a localized area out of the way the clean-up was impressive, they even went as far as going up on the roof and blowing all the leaves and twigs off the roof. The only part of the whole job I was concerned with was a couple safety issues where one of the workers put themselves in danger. Despite this issue I was very pleased and would highly recommend AH Irish Tree Service for any tree removal jobs you may have.

First off, I'm not one that typically goes online and writes reviews but my experience with HA Irish was so amazing that I needed to write something. Collectively between me and my neighbor we had 15 trees removed ranging from small sassafras trees to very large oak trees.

To make things easier to read, here are the positives broken out:
- HA Irish was the most competitive bid I had by quite a bit
- Over the two days that crews were at our house I was blown away at how much they went above and beyond. The crew on day one even cleaned up our yard completely as if nobody was coming back the next day to make another mess. :-)
- With having large trucks pulling into our back yard part of our side parking (asphalt) next to our garage caved in (this was going to happen no matter who did my trees and I kind of anticipated this happening). Before they left on the last day they showed up with asphalt patch materials and repaired my driveway as best they could.

I could give more positive examples but what it comes down to is I felt like they took care of my property as if it was their own.

Thanks so much for the great experience!

Irish removed a tree in our front yard and trimmed a tree in our back yard 9 years ago and charged us a fair price. This fall we needed another tree removed in our backyard that was splitting and in danger of falling on our shed or worse yet, our neighbor's fence and his boats stored next to it. I first called on or before September 20 to request an estimate. The lady who answered said she would give my information to the estimator and I should be contacted within the week. I waited exactly one week and called again, and again was told the same thing. I waited exactly one more week and almost called back when a day later I received the call to schedule a time for someone to come look at the tree on October 5. I was given an estimate which was a lot more expensive than I had hoped but the work needed to be done. On October 6 I called and asked to have the job scheduled and was told that my information would be given to the scheduler and I should get a call within a week. On the following Monday October 11 I called back and was told the same thing. I waited exactly one more week on October 18 and called back again and was again told the same thing. I waited one more week and on October 25 I called again and again was told the same thing. At that point it had been more than a month since the whole process began. A co worker gave me a reference and I called. I kid you not, from the day I first called the new tree guy to the day the tree was removed was FOUR DAYS and $200 less. And it has now been over two months since I first contacted Irish and I still have not received a call back to schedule the tree removal. If Irish did not want to do my job they should have just told me and they would not be getting this negative review.

Three massive oaks completely removed. 2 very close to the house and one on the corner of our garage. There was some sawdust when they left, but one ought to expect that. It was done in less than 2 days, thorough clean up, and the guys were very polite. They didn't even mind my son gawking in awe at them working, simply waved and smiled. And the price was less than half of what 2 other companies were quoting. Would highly recommend!

We just had 54 trees removed from our property over the last 2 days. The crew that did the work was fast, efficient and very professional. I am truly grateful for all they did. The cleanup was amazing. We walked around the property both days after they left and we’re in awe on how everything looked. I am so glad I had them do this work.

I have never left a Google review, but feel I have to this time. We had a few pine trees removed and a couple of trees trimmed this week and are seriously so impressed! The pines were pretty large and squished between consumers power lines and our house in a little city lot, and our other trees were hanging way over and touching our house.
The crew worked quickly, despite it being in the 90’s outside. They ground the stumps and leveled our yard to that, if there were grass where the stumps used to be, you’d never know there was a tree there! I had iris planted around one of the trees that I forgot to move. They managed to take the tree down and grind the stump—while protecting the iris! They also trimmed our other trees so that they’re comfortably away from the house—but still look nice and not like they were scalped or something. All of the mess was cleaned up—even the few leaves that fell off of the trimmed branches.

They were all very professional and friendly and very competitively priced. Highly recommend!

Called for a quote and left a detailed lineup and had caution tape wrapped on trees needed taken down, 6 in total, while adding 1 more that they didn't know about. The estimator shows up and calls me and I had to proceed to tell him exactly what was typed up and he said he understood. I received the quote and it looked suspicious as in only 3 trees were mentioned, so I tried contacting them about it. The lady on the phone apologized and had the estimator give me a call and he proceeds to tell me about the 3 pines to take down in the back, however in this area there is only 1 pine tree and I assured him he was wrong. I know those aren't pine leafs in the fall that I pick up. I had to take a half day off work last minute to meet him at my home due to the confusion. The owner just happened to be with him when he showed up. We walked the yard as I pointed out the trees and the estimator stated " that tree wasn't marked" . Well how did you know which one to cut in the quote? He then tells the owner about how he suggested removing the large tree in back with a crane. I told them they couldn't drive in my yard due to septic and drain field as this was stated in my original line up. Owner then proceeds to tell me to call someone else. I Heard a lot of good things about them from people, so I gave them a call. If someone would have read the instructions I left them they wouldn't have wasted my time. I would have said leave the large one that the crane was needed for and do the rest, that was the original quote request as I knew how difficult that tree would be. But the way the owner told me to find someone else I was pretty put off by, and felt I was being talked down to.

Not only was their quote the lowest I received from among several tree services, but the quality of their work was also exceptional. The workers were courteous and friendly. They took care not to damage my lawn while quickly removing my downed tree. Clean up was beautiful. Great work!!! I recommend them to anyone in need of tree service.
