Reviews of local pros in Akron, Ohio

They removed a huge oak from my house in Akron. Very professional and safety oriented as it was, as you can see from pics, right next to a busy rd in town. (Traffic control was used) They were as careful as possible at my request to avoid the neighbors yards as I didn't want to inconvenience my neighbors as other companies were going to do if they did the job. The guys working took time to chat and the communication from their office was great. Price was very reasonable for the task they had to do to remove a tree this size and in such a tough location. I'd highly recommend them to anyone. I arrived home in time for the final cut! Never been so happy to see a tree gone!! Thank you!

I had 2 huge 70'+ Maple trees hanging over wires that had ant damage and needed safely removed. I requested all the wood be placed on the ground so we could cut it to our liking and remove only the brush. The quotes from several other companies were much more.

The tree crew came out on time and got right to work. They stacked the cut limbs neatly in piles. They cleaned up the yard nicer than it was when they arrived. All the workers were very professional and respectful of my property. I am so relieved the dangerous trees are down and extremely pleased with the end result!

I plan on having them do my huge trees in the backyard.

Thanks for being so awesome!

Had an emergency on a Sunday morning with a large tree split and partially fallen onto the garage, yard and power/cable lines in our backyard. Tina answered the call and got an expert out to survey the damage and get us on the schedule for first thing in the morning. Adam assured us the house was in no danger and that all would be good once crew got there. 8am the trucks arrived and the crew went to work placing the crane in the neighbors driveway and bringing the Spider bucket up the drive to take care of business. We were amazed at how quickly and efficiently the removal went. Highly recommend Hercules for all your tree needs, especially for an emergency situation!! Thank you for everything!

The crew was great.very polite and asked questions if they had them. Cleaned up well. Only criticism was tire tracks thru the backyard and it got pretty muddy. They do warn you about this in advance however. Office receptionist was very responsive and friendly. Weather was not cooperative for an earlier date but a break in the weather enabled the trees to be trimmed. Happy with Hercules!

I contacted Hercules after they cut a tree in my front yard to access a neighbors yard. I reached out interested in getting a quote for tree trimming/removal in my backyard as well as to clean up the branches they left hanging in the front yard. At first things were great - someone came out to assess my trees, told me there was no immediate need to clean anything up in the back, but they would provide an itemized quote if I wanted to take care of some things when the trees were dormant. They also said they would come out and clean up the branches they cut in my front yard at their next convenience (next time they were in the area). But this was 2.5 weeks ago. Below is the tree in the front yard still with a broken hanging branch, and a tree in my backyard they told me they were not concerned about. I've called several times over the 2.5 weeks to get my full quote and an update on when they can fix the broken tree, but still can't get an answer.

EDIT: In response to your reply, I respectfully ask to be left out of your church. However, I’m more than happy to show you the property lines, where it’s clear that the branches removed were entirely within my lot. I completely understand the importance of emergency services, my primary concern is the lack of professionalism displayed by your company. This includes failing to return any phone calls or emails and the incorrect diagnosis of the tree, which subsequently caused thousands of dollars in damages less than two weeks after your specialist inspected it. I believe this highlights a significant lapse in your service. Since you seem religious, I will pray to Buddha, Allah, and Krishna that this feedback helps improve your processes in the future :)

I highly recommend Hercules Tree Service! They were able to tackle a tight job in a small space with professionalism and ease. Other companies gave higher quotes for a lesser trimming of a tree that was hanging into my roof and gutters. Additionally, despite all the recent storm damage , they were able to complete the work nearly a five weeks before any other company’s expected service. I will be using them in the future.

Incredible Service & Expertise from Hercules Tree!

We recently had Hercules Tree come out to trim several of our trees, including a massive, 150+ year-old oak tree—one of the largest in Ohio—and we couldn’t be more impressed! From start to finish, their team was professional, hardworking, and truly experts in their field.

✅ Outstanding Workmanship – They handled our historic oak tree with incredible care and precision.
✅ Above & Beyond Cleanup – No mess left behind! They made sure everything was spotless.
✅ Reliable & Trustworthy – They did exactly what they promised—and then some!

If you’re looking for a tree service that is skilled, dependable, and goes the extra mile, look no further than Hercules Tree! Highly recommend

This is the third time Hercules Tree Service has removed trees from my property. The last one was a beast of a tree, estimated at approximately 50,000 lbs. The crew was so adept at removing it, being especially careful of power lines running through it. The crew hustled and I mean hustled. They didn't walk, they ran and were constantly cleaning up as the job proceeded. My yard looks pristeen and I'm extremely happy. The crew was polite and friendly and the fee was so reasonable. Hercules was half the price, HALF, of other tree services. I always get at least 3 estimates and each time Hercules comes out the winner. I still have more trees to be removed and I probably won't even bother getting any other estimates. Hercules is my go-to company. Great work, great service, great price.

Would not recommend this company. A neighbor had a tree taken down and I allowed them to let it fall onto my property, A piece of equipment used to pick up pieces in the back yard was driven through an area, and left deep ruts, of newly seeded lawn I just paid $250 to have done. When I spoke with one of the workers he cut me off saying the release my neighbor signed allowed them access. I disagree and after numerous calls, leaving messages and emails I’m waiting to speak to the owner about the damage they’ve done.
Update 10/22/25 After numerous attempts to have a representative come out and speak to me, Nothing has been done to repair the ruts damage done by a careless driver of a vehicle into my newly installed lawn. The lawn sloped to allow my wife access to our backyard. Tire ruts could not be repaired by trying to rake up grass and hay.
Their response was they were given permission but in speaking with my neighbor there was no mention of any piece of equipment would need access. Had some thought been used there was a different access that could have been used.

We had a huge silver maple removed from our backyard and Hercules Tree Service did an incredible job! They had to work around the overhead wires, close houses, and fences. It was impressive to watch how they were able to carefully take down the tree and maneuver around all the obstacles of our small yard. I highly recommend using Hercules Tree for any tree removal.

My experience with Hercules was absolutely seamless from start to finish. For every appointment there was superb communications and easy financial transactions. The crew that came to cut down a dead Elm tree was meticulous, efficient, understanding of the space problem (we worked with my neighbor to use her driveway because mine did not go to the backyard), and truly professional. The team addressed every concern she or I had and met every need.

Diana (in the office) was outstanding in every way. Prompt, a great communicator, and kind. I felt I had dealt with this company for years instead of the very first time as everyone from Hercules felt like family. Their service is truly cost friendly as well. I got six quotes, and Hercules addressed every concern, and addressed every question I had in a clear and concise way (unlike two of the other companies from whom I requested quotes).

A truly outstanding company with which to work!

I had some large trees that were dropping things onto the cars in my driveway and they had to go. I just couldn't imagine getting equipment back there but this company did it. They surveyed the property three times to make a plan to bring what they needed. They asked me questions about what I wanted done and made helpful suggestions. I started with three big trees but I will definitely clean up some more in the future. I recommend winter work too. Less mess.

The crew was professional and left my front yard looking better than it did before they showed up! Fair pricing and great communication too. I’ll definitely be calling again the next time I need a tree removed or trimmed.

I had 5 trees cut down yesterday. They did an awesome job removing my trees! Everyone worked well together. They cleaned up all the branches and limbs and were very neat. They were all very polite. I am definitely going to call Hercules the next time I need more trees removed. Great job!

Hercules Tree Service team did such a great job! They were reasonably priced and I thought I was going to have to wait 2-3 weeks and they had an opening earlier and called me and were over an hour later. The team was a well oiled machine taking down 2 large trees in under 2 hours. They cared for the yard, the cleaned up and I had asked them to chop one of the trees into trunks which they stacked nicely in the yard. The team was so nice and answered all of my questions, would definitely call again!

Excellent work

This is the most kind and hard working man i have ever seen and he does amazing work that last, for cheap prices

Good man dose good work 👍 👏 never seen a person who could do the work this man does every single day and still makes sure he is doing it right may God bless this man an his family

Had my house power washed by the Williams window cleaning services, and I believe no one could have done better. The owner went above and beyond what I was expecting for under market price. There is no reason to look any further. Get your house washed by the best.

I am more than satisfied with the job that was done at my house today. Ryan and his partner washed my entire house, by hand and then power washed it. He got my gutters white again and did a great job on my windows and screens. He got here at 10am this morning and finished about 3:15pm this afternoon. They worked nonstop. He got on a ladder to hand wash up to the peaks and you can really tell a difference. My windows sparkle and window tracks and sills have never been whiter. I highly recommend Ryan Williams.
