    The team at Noosh did an absolutely incredible job on my farm. I recently obtained a completely undeveloped property — the kind of “raw land” that looks romantic but in real life makes you question all your life choices. I was woefully unprepared to tame it.

    Enter Derek and Gustavo — basically land-taming superheroes with chainsaws.

    Within just a few hours, they handled massive tree felling and serious brush clearing that would have taken me… let’s be honest… approximately three years and at least one emotional breakdown. Thanks to them, I can actually move around my ranch without feeling like I’m starring in a wilderness survival show.

    What really impressed me was their knowledge of horse properties. They understood exactly what I need to turn this wild jungle into safe, usable pasture for my two horses. That kind of equine-specific insight is priceless when you’re trying to build something functional (and not accidentally create a mud pit of doom).

    Reasonable pricing, expert knowledge, efficient work, and true 5⭐️ service.

    I’m already planning to have them back out with a skid steer to keep developing the property — because apparently I’ve decided to continue this whole “turn raw land into a working ranch” adventure.

    If you have a horse property that needs serious transformation, do yourself a favor and give Gary at Noosh a call. They don’t just clear land — they give you your sanity back.

    II contacted Noosh to put in irrigation to our large, raised beds garden project. It was a complicated request given that there are 27 separate beds surrounded by fencing. They were excellent to deal with prior to the project beginning. A couple of days into the project and after I saw the quality of work I expanded to job to include all of our flower beds and other landscape beds. The expanded project required going under paver walkways and other challenges including buried electrical lines. The work and attention to detail was phenomenal! Their price was certainly fair. I worked primarily with Derek and Ben but the entire crew was friendly, professional and obviously cared about making sure everything was perfect.

    With all that being said, I'm not done with Noosh. I now have them booked to remove some stumps that have been bugging us for years!

    Roger and Mike are two of the most honest and hardworking owners I know! Great guys make for a great company who always does their customers right!

    Greer is who we call when our trees need care. We have many trees that have needed trimmed or removed over the years. Greer always gives dependable, professional service. A windstorm last year brought down one of the biggest trees on our property. Greer responded within a few hours to make sure the other trees nearby didn't threaten more damage.

    I called them to design an irrigation system. The fellow I talked to said they’d be happy to and would put me on the schedule. A month later with no call, I called back to arrange another appointment and he said he’d get back with me. It’s been almost 2 months without a call. They clearly aren’t interested and too busy to call me back.

    Price gouging during the storm and overcharged me and then tried to lie about it. I would never use this company again. They are literally stealing from people during a crisis situation and saying it’s ‘emergency rates’ while they smudge their hours and over staff their crews!(they were moving slower than molasses)
    Much better options out there!

    This is a great company to work with. I have had them inspect and care for a number of trees around my home for the past 14-15 years, plus they have installed a watering system for me in my yard. They are always, professional, freindly, and easy to work with.

    For years I’ve had a real wet area in my backyard. In the 15 years I’ve had several people out to try and resolve the issue. I got solutions such as drainage issue to just replacing sprinkler heads. Finally when I called Greer brothers they first just thought it was a sprinkler head and when that didn’t fix the problem they came back out and found the real problem. It had been a broken sprinkler system pipe. I’m very grateful they finally found the issue and fixed it. I’m looking forward to not having a marsh in my backyard after all these years. Thank you Greer brothers. 😊😊

    These guys did some work for my neighbor and left a massive mess of branches on the roof of my shed. I attempted to contact them and was ignored. I guess this is the 'family legacy' they want to leave with Salem. Literally use anybody else.

    Just had some yard work done by Greer Brand Industries. They are so wonderful! They took a volunteer tree down, did some tree and bush trimming, cleaned everything up and did it fast and efficiently. They are really good at what they do! Highly recommend them!!
    Thank you guys!

    Twice a year they swing by and spray. No ants or other bugs in the house. Until we hired Rasmussen we had carpenter ants every year in the Spring. Well worth the cost. Nice and friendly technician.

    We have been using Rasmussen for several years and I have never had a problem until today. The workers that were sent to spray, doused my ripe cherry tree - that we are obviously in the middle of picking - with insecticide. They didn't even bother to ask or leave a note asking if it was okay to spray. Now we can't pick for 3 days and the cherries are ripe right now. We don't know how many cherries we are going to lose as a result. We had to cancel several people who were going to pick today and tomorrow. Additionally, no one we provide cherries to really wants cherries with insecticide now that they are aware of it. So in all likelihood the cherries we planned to donate to the food bank will just have to be thrown away. When we can pick them. It also affects the birds and other wildlife that frequent our property. The owner assured me the workers were given instructions not to spray cherries but where were these guys when that was explained. Furthermore, my son-in-law who lives across the street witnessed one of the workers vaping on my property. Totally not acceptable. We haven't decided yet if we are going to continue with this service. It is very disappointing because up until today I have had no complaints.

    I am elderly and disabled and I live on a small farm whose owner has used this service for 20 years. I have lived here for 4 years.
    I am a plant biologist by education and owned a tree service for 21 years, eight active years in the Willamette Valley under the name Metro Tree Service. When I was active and first starting this service was owned by the Rasmussen's and they were good professional crew and I recommended them at least a hundred times.
    In the four years I've been here, I have had minimal conversations with the crew and have been of assistance when asked.
    This year they insisted that I leave the property when they spray. Last year when they sprayed they damaged the trees to the point where the leaves lost color and the nuts and fruits did not produce like they should.
    I have a feeling they did this to the trees on purpose due to some interaction with the crew earlier this year they felt was undo. This put the responsibility of the damaged orchard on my hands to the uneducated landlord. She is under the impression it was something I did.
    My interaction with the crew early in spring was as follows.
    They had a new member on the crew. There were two sprayers, one who has appeared for the last 4 years as being the crew leader. He was concerned about the wind carrying the poison so the crew he tested the wind and positioned himself so the wind would carry the poison away safely. The newer member randomly shot the poison in the air and said, "Oops", with a laugh as it floated over the new organic strawberry patch I had installed previously in the fall. I said something about that, pointing out the patch of strawberries, and the member laughed at me and said something using words and language that told me he probably didn't even graduate from high school. I called the owners and pointed out what happened and the lack of care. The woman owner who answered blasted me with unkind words, knowing I'm not the owner of the property, and told me I was in the wrong for saying anything.
    I received so much bad interaction from my uneducated landlord this year regarding the trees, laying the blame at my feet for the lack of production.
    This season, the spray service said they would not do the job if I was on the property.
    I am elderly and disabled and they sent me off the property with nowhere to go in sub 40° weather.
    Of course we can blame the landlord, but she is elderly as well and not totally cognitive, and they pressurized her unduly and unprofessionally.
    I would not recommend this tree service to anyone.
    They advertise as being here for decades but their name is not on the title of the business and they purchased the business intact from the former owner.
    Don't use this service. They damaged the trees this year and illegally kicked me off the property for several hours in Sub forty degree weather with nowhere to go. They are inhumane and do not respect the elderly or disabled. They do not take constructive criticism and apparently do not know their job when they damaged the trees. I have to come to a conclusion that they did this on purpose to cause me discomfort. The reasons I have is because the trees didn't produce this year and they were at fault. To add insult to injury, they made my absence prerequisite of spraying the trees. I have had enough discussion with their lead member for him to know that I'm a plant biologist and would figure out the damage, and know they were responsible.
    These people are unprofessional and irresponsible an unaccountable when confronted.

    Amazing service. I had aphids on my tulip tree and they were dripping when I parked my car underneath them. They came out and treated my tree with a systemic. Now it looks very healthy and doesn’t drip anymore. Highly knowledgeable team. Very happy!

    I had an appointment with them on 5/11/2019 at 9:30 at my rental house (25 minutes one way driving from my house), the person didnt show up. I called them at 9:37 and they told me they would call me asap and let me know what happened. I waited 20 minutes, and nobody called me, so I called again. The office told me that person would not show up, so I left. At 10:45, the person called me and told me he would be my rental house in 10 minutes. I was busy and told that person I would call back. I called back couple minutes later but it went to office again. They told me the person was in the same neighborhood and he could go to my rental house later, and he would call me asap. Guess what? I waited 30 minutes and nobody called me. You will waste your time if you want them work for your house. I don't know why this company still running their business in Portland area. They should be out of business.

    Greenway Scapes was a great price, completed the work quickly and we’re great to work with. I wanted a simple landscape installation for new construction and they provided exactly what I needed.

    For 4 years I used to think these people were awesome.They would send a crew of 2 or 3 men to maintain my 1.5 acre yard. They worked fast and could get the job done in 2 hours.
    Now they only send one nice older man.
    I'm so very disappointed now, They never get the job done in one visit. He only can do a portion of my hard. Poor man drove up today in an old little car and only has one rake and one edger. He said his edger does't work. Normally comes on Thursday's, showed up late today( 4:15) He can't haul the debris in his car. I'm so tired of having to call and complain. I used to refer people to them all the time, sadly not anymore.
    I hope what ever is going on with them that they fix the problem.

    I was so impressed with how responsive Greenway was to my request for a bid. They were here within two days to do an estimate and gave me the estimate right then. They also sent out a crew to do the initial clean up the day after I signed up.
