Tree reviews in Wayne, New Jersey

This company does high quality work. Justin's work crew are fabulous the only way you can tell they been there is that the tree's were gone and at a good price. Do not hesitate to give them a call you will be very happy you did!

I recently hired this tree removal company and was thoroughly impressed with their professionalism and quality of work. From the beginning, their team was responsive and informative — they came out quickly for an estimate, clearly explained the process, and offered a fair price.
If you need tree removal company I highly recommend this company. Great service, well-organized, and excellent results!

Had a tricky job due to the location of the tree. The quote was more than fair compared to the four others. The team was very professional and I was truly impressed with the job they performed. From the climber to the stump grinder, they exceeded expectations. Highly recommended!

Rich and his team did a great job removing 4 trees at our property. From the start they always showed up on time and called if they were going to be late or had to cancel because of bad weather. Great service!

Excellent customer service by office staff and exceptional, professional tree specialists! My magnolia tree had grown out of control and North Jersey Tree Specialists pruned and shaped it, cleaned up all limbs and debris and did the job so quickly! Fair prices. I would definitley recommend them! - Deb S., Bloomfield, NJ

EXCELLENT!!! The best price, which is one of the factors in choosing North Jersey Tree Specialists, very professional, excellent service, great job not only taking a huge tree down in a timely fashion but the property was cleaned & the stump removed. I would highly recommend this company to anyone that needs a tree down. They were also very easy to deal with because we needed the tree down right away. Don't waste your time looking elsewhere, just go to North Jersey Tree Specialists LLC!!!!

We used NJ tree specialists for removing 3 trees and pruning others. The job was well done and professionally executed.

The job was rescheduled a couple times due to weather and availability, but other than that I am satisfied with the work.

Great tree service! I’ve used them several times and have always been incredibly happy with their work. They do an awesome job cutting/pruning trees and meticulously clean up afterwards. Can’t recommend them enough!

I had NJTS take down two dead ash trees and some overhanging branches recently. Once they got setup they took care of everything with little involvement from me. Cleanup was fantastic they took care of some leaves on my property unrelated to the tree work without even being asked. Would use again

We just had a massive tree removed by this company. They may not have fancy website and sometimes their office manager may not always answer your phone call or email. But they do have an excellent arborist Danielle Schlein working for them and an amazing crew! Danielle responds promptly on email or text with care and professionalism. She always patiently answers your questions and explains and follows through. For a moment I was as frustrated as some of the reviewers here because of a lack of knowledge about this line of work. Danielle responded and carefully explained. More importantly she helped to organize and got the crew over to work on our possibly two hundred years old bottom hollowed tree. The job was extremely difficult because the tree is in the backyard and there is no access for anything wider than a person's shoulder, nor was there a path. The crew was ingenious. Their rich experience, superb skills, carefully engineering calculation and professionalism made this three day tree removal project a wonder, a magic, that lifted off the danger to our house. What's more impressive is all of them are really dedicated, love what they do, and take pride in their work. I cannot thank them enough for getting this tricky job done! Thank You!

Good service. Rich the owner is pretty straight up - he gave me the best estimate out of the three tree removal services I contacted, the other two came from personal referrals.

I do advise you carefully read the exact terms of the service Rich gives you in the estimate, e.g. if it says maple or oak etc. He has a few crews who follow the description on the estimate to the T, and will charge for anything not mentioned there or different in description.

Overall was completed as expected and in a professional manner. I would recommend them.

These guys took down my giant sycamore tree (maybe 70 feet tall) in less than a day without incident. The tree was pretty close to my house and surrounded by electrical wires. The crane man, climber and ground man are the best I've ever seen and they had very capable equipment. The stump grinder cut it nice and low. They prepped my property with plywood protecting the lawn (from the heavy vehicles) and the doors and windows of my home. They also hauled away all the wood and used blowers to do a very thorough clean up leaving the mulched wood chips of the stump in a neat pile as agreed. Scheduling the job was a little tricky as there are many variables in their business but the office people are nice and my patience was rewarded with a job well done. I am satisfied and recommend them.

Absolutely great service! I have worked with different tree companies and by far North Jersey Tree Specialist are the best. You would never expect to get the professionalism, honesty, and great price on top of that. Their awesome, that's my tree guy.

We were extremely pleased with the work done by North Jersey Tree Specialist. The review of our property and follow up estimate was done promptly and to our satisfaction. Actual work was completed on time and as expected. Crew was efficient and professional

If you need trees removed or trimmed, or both, I would encourage that you contact Rich at North Jersey Tree Specialist. A colleague of mine referred me to them and I was very happy that he did. Rich was very knowledgeable during our walkthrough of my property and was honest about what work should or shouldn’t be done, based on what I needed. As an example, there is a tree on my property that is dying and I told Rich I wanted to remove it but he mentioned I wouldn’t have to do so for a couple of years based on its condition, but it was ultimately up to me if I wanted to do so. Nowadays, many contractors will take advantage of those who aren’t subject matter experts to make a quick buck. Again, give Rich a call. You’ll be glad you did.

Hire at your own risk.

They ruined our slate sidewalk by driving their crane truck over it without proper protection. They took full responsibility and promised to replace the broken sidewalk, but instead, they stopped responding to my calls and emails and it has become clear that they lied.

While they did a decent job on the tree, they were rushed to get to their next job and tried to leave after 30 minutes when the job was not even close to being done. I pointed out all the remaining deadwood that needed to be cut and they did complete it to my satisfaction.

5/12/22 - Edited to add: After they stopped responding, I had to contact their insurance company on my own and was able to get the insurance company to pay for the damages, but not after spending time, energy and effort.

Awesome work! Crew of 6 took down a dead tree in the front yard using a crane. Had to avoid wires all around. Amazing to watch such a professional job. Everything went perfectly and clean up was outstanding. Certainly would recommend this company.

Awesome Tree Company!! This is the second time I’ve used North Jersey Tree Specialists. The owner and staff are honest and professional. The crew arrived on time, they were friendly, worked fast and cleaned my entire property before leaving. I will definitely be using them again!!

They are extremely professional explained everything and their timing was perfect I needed them to be there after hours they came within 10 minutes and took care of everything even much better than I anticipated I recommend them very highly

My experience was positive from the time I reached out for an estimate till the time the work was completed. Rich was great and so helpful and the guys were friendly and worked hard. Even having to put up with millions of spotted lantern flies!!! The office ladies were also a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend the company

-- Updated on 8/3/21 to add that the owner has responded and, unfortunately, continues to spew inaccuracies. Buyer beware, even more than ever.

--- Original review:
I wish I could write an amazing review, because the process of getting an estimate through to the work itself was fantastic. But everything fell apart the day I got threatening voicemails and text messages about payment.

Upon originally paying via a credit card -- over the phone and as soon as the work was complete -- the person we spoke with apparently mistyped the credit card number. The charge was never processed. They called us back, we called them back, and they never returned our call.

Fast forward a couple of weeks -- the owner leaves us a nasty voicemail and threatening text message. "I'm going to show up at your house to get my money." Really, sir? Perhaps you should call your office and tell them to do their jobs. Which apparently he eventually did, because they finally returned our call, and correctly processed the invoice.

All it would have taken was for the office to call us back, and we would have used this company for future tree maintenance. But no -- not only will we never hire them again, we may file a complaint with the BBB.

Tip: don't threaten your customers, and especially not when the mistake is on your end.

Buyer beware.
