Tree reviews in Reno, Nevada

Scott and his crew were amazing. We had extremely large trees hanging above our sunroom, as well as several large dead trees. They were very reasonably priced, prompt, and did an excellent job under difficult circumstances. Very pleased — we would use them again, and highly recommend their services.

Scott was great. We had a huge tree go down in a windstorm and he was able to get the job done two days after coming out for the initial bid. They removed the entire tree and stump and did extensive cleanup in one day. I had asked for advice on trimming another tree and he was able to get to that the next day. These guys were very professional and very reasonably priced.

Scott is an excellent tree trimmer because of his expert knowledge about trees. He explains the reasons for trimming and answered all my questions about my tree problems. He is very easy to work with, very reliable and has very reasonable prices. It is amazing to see him climb a very tall tree with climbing ropes which allows him to get in the awkward places to finish the job completely. I have referred him to my friends and will continue to do so!

Scott came to my front door at exactly the time he said he would. He did an EXCELLENT job not only in trimming my maple trees (3) for health, maintenance and safety but also in removing unsightly dead branches and twigs. Scott skillfully and with precision removed those eyesores without breaking a single healthy branch. He also expertly cut and safely removed, with Matt’s help, a large dead branch from the top of one of the trees. To finish up, Scott and Matt did a thorough cleanup and hauled away all the debris.
Aside from his EXCEPTIONAL skills, Scott is HONEST. He offered me a reasonable cost estimate for the job. By arriving on time, he showed he is DEPENDABLE and that he respects and cares about his customers’ time. Scott is FRIENDLY and is pleasant to talk to. He is KNOWLEDGEABLE about trees, its diseases, tree care and maintenance.
I am very pleased and greatly appreciate what Scott did for my maple trees.
I highly recommend Scott Sinner from Aspect Tree Care for your next tree service

I was very happy with Scott, from Aspect Tree Care. He's an ISA certified arborist, who clearly knows trees. He took the time to talk with me, going over different options for the large fir in my front yard. I was looking for a health assessment and some trimming. He found the tree to be in good health. I had another company recommend a bunch of services, while Scott didn't find many of those services to be necessary. I appreciated his honesty and would definitely go with him again in the future.

This is the best tree work I’ve ever had. Normally when I’ve had limbs removed other companies bring in a cherry picker and destroy my lawn. Scott climbed into the tree and carefully removed each limb, and this is the best my tree’s have ever looked. He also did an amazing job cleaning up, and it’s like he wasn’t there. I’d recommend Scott and Aspect Tree care for any job.

We had Scott trim a neighbor's Siberian Elm and Cherry tree that had reached our roof and gutters above our 3-story home. When he came to provide his estimate, he was able to explain which branches should be removed to preserve the trees, while removing those that could damage our roof. We appreciate his knowledge as a certified arborist. He was prompt, hardworking and professional. I had to leave for an appointment, before he was done. He texted me photos of the completed job. When I returned to check out the job, everything was as he had explained and the yard was spotless. We recommend Aspect Tree Care.

Scott was great. Communication was great and he was on time and efficient. Our trees look healthier and happy. Scott also made recommendations on treatment for two tress that are in some distress. I felt confident in his expertise. I highly recommend Scott. We will be calling him in the future for any tree related needs.

Aspect Tree Care did a fabulous job trimming our 70 year old maple. Scott was very knowledgeable about the health and quality of the tree on his initial visit. They did a great job clearing out dead wood but also shaping and trimming the tree. They very meticulously cleaned up the site and our backyard looked cleaner than when they came. I would definitely recommend to anyone.

Scott made quick work of my precarious situation - dying trees threaded by power lines. Amazing price and service! Quick scheduling. He made sure the wood was cut in a way that was convenient for me (firewood), and kept the debris from causing any damage to the grape vine and chickens under the tree. Support Scott - your local climber/skier/arborist!

I highly recommend this company. VERY PROFESSIONAL and excellent at what they do. My trees were a mess after winter. Scott was amazing.

Scott knows what he's doing and does it efficiently. He is a pleasure to deal with. He pruned my crabapple tree and 50 year old lilac beautifully and now he has treated my London plane tree for scale and my birch for the borer beetle.

The service was awesome - from the response time to staying in communication. The work performed was also great. We have a large American Elm that is probably 70 years old and never had any attention. Scott was able to assess issues with the tree and recommend care options. He was fast and thorough and I would highly recommend his work!

Summary Review:

Scott is a high-character individual, responsive, professional, socially conscious, fair-priced, and skilled in his trade. I wouldn’t hesitate to call him again or refer him to my friends and family. I am very pleased with the work he did on our large elm tree removal.

Detailed Review:

Initial Contact: I found Scott/Aspect Tree Care through a posting on Nextdoor from another neighbor asking for tree removal referrals. I looked him up and contacted him through his website. I received an email response from Scott a few hours later and he came by the next morning to look at my tree and give a free estimate of work.

Quote: Scott showed up at my house on time and was wearing a mask (he wore a mask at every interaction). He looked at my 40 foot elm tree and was careful to look at it from every angle and provided a quote for tree removal, clean up, haul away, and stump grinding. He let me ask all the questions I wanted. He left and later that day emailed me the formal quote. This was on a Wednesday.

Decision: I had already had a few other quotes on the tree removal, from larger companies, and they wanted to use large equipment (cranes, bucket truck, etc.), which correlates to a higher cost. Scott doesn’t use any large equipment – he is an avid rock climber and understands angles, leverage, and physics, and uses them to his advantage – which allows him to keep his costs down and still provide a professional service. We felt Scott’s quote was fair and reasonable, so we accepted his offer. He gave us his quote on Wednesday and was able to begin working the following Monday.

Tree Removal: Scott ordered a large dumpster to be delivered, which was on time and placed correctly. Scot began working first thing in the morning and worked until the sun started going down (around 4:30 in the onset of winter). The removal process ended up taking a little bit longer than he had originally estimated, but he kept in frequent communication and gave regular updates, so it wasn’t a problem for us. (It was a LARGE tree that hung over the neighbor’s yard with another smaller tree under it, so I don’t blame him). Scott is obviously experienced in his trade and watching him cut down the tree was seriously mesmerizing – no large equipment, just a chain saw, ropes, pulleys, and gravity.

Clean Up: Scott and his team made sure the yard was completely cleaned up. All that was left were the fresh wood chips from the stump grinding – which Scott offered to leave for us to use as mulch in our garden.

Character: Scott was professional throughout the entire process. I really appreciated that he wore a mask at every interaction. Although I’m young and healthy, it was a small gesture that obviously had a big impact on me and that shows his awareness. In addition, we had two small trees next to the large elm tree that I was already in the process of removing and could have done so on my own, but Scott offered to remove them at no additional charge. Lastly, in the process of removing the tree, a small softball-sized chunk of wood fell onto the neighbor’s shed and ripped a hole in the roof paneling. Unbeknownst to Scott, I witnessed this. He could have left it and acted like he didn’t know that it had happened, but he went and knocked on the neighbor’s door and told him what happened and offered to pay for a replacement roof panel. He also patched the hole until the panel could be installed. Its examples like these that define someone’s character.

Conclusion: All in all, our experience with Scott from Aspect Tree Care was terrific. If I had to come up with a “negative”, I guess it would have to be that it took longer than he originally estimated. But the fact that we weren’t on a time crunch to get it removed, and also that he communicated with us throughout the process, it really wasn’t a “negative” for us. We likely won’t need any more trees removed, but if any friends or family ever need any tree work done, Scott will be at the top of the list of referrals.

Scott of Aspect Tree Care did a phenomenal job with our trees. We purchased our property quite recently, and the 4 trees on our property had not been trimmed, touched, or even looked at in 10 years, and it showed. They were becoming a liability as the branches were so heavy, we got lucky in this year's windstorm, but probably not for the next one.

Scott came to assess our trees on a Tuesday, and was able to get us an appointment for the following Thursday. He gave us a detailed estimate outlining everything he would need to do so we could decide whether to go forward with his services. I had a lot of questions, and he patiently and thoroughly answered each one and explained why he would need to do what he had said he would do on the estimate sheet so I was not in the dark.

He arrived bright and early and took his time with each tree to make sure the job was done properly. He took about 1 and a half days to complete the job, 2/4 trees were growing into our fence so they needed some finagling. He cleaned up all the branches and debris thoroughly, and he was even really thoughtful around my nosy dogs! He sent me a follow-up email with some notes on the work he'd done and further recommendations.

Scott is a real professional, and the quality of his work speaks for itself.

Scott and his wife didn’t excellent work with our trees. Scott walked us through any concerns and what he proposed, took good care of the trees, and thoroughly cleaned up afterwards. Will use again and definitely recommend.

Scott came to do some tree work at our home. He was able to fell and buck massive rounds and moved faster than most crews I’ve seen. Scott was on time and professional and had very reasonable rates. I would use Aspect Tree Care in the future for any future tree work needs.

Scott examined my struggling Mulberry Tree before conducting deep root aeration, soil improvement with organic compost and a protective layer of wood chip mulch. The tree looks much healthier.

Scott did a great job removing 5 aspens and 2 flowering plum trees for me. He provided a quote the same day I called and removed the trees the following week. He did a great job with cleaning up the debris and his pricing was very reasonable. I would happily recommend him to others and use him again myself.

Scott contacted me the same day that I reached out to him. He came to look as my tree issues the next day and completed the work the next day. He was very prompt, courteous and did an excellent job of trimming my trees and cleaned up the debris afterward. I highly recommend this tree service.

Scott Skinner of ASPECT TREE CARE came to my house to take care of my beautiful large Austrian Pine Tree in my front yard. Scott removed dead branches, mounds of pine needles, and cross branches. He was very careful to only remove the necessary branches for better tree health and to enhance beauty. My tree had large unsightly pitch masses all over the tree, caused by Sequoia Pitch Moth. Scott drilled and injected the tree to remove and and eliminate the pitch moth. Scott also spent time with me on how to care for my tree with proper irrigation, and a mulch covered buffer zone around the tree so tree roots can take up water and air. All cut branches and debris were shredded and off-hauled and cleaned better than when he arrived. All this done for hundreds of dollars less than all other tree companies.....very economical.
