Marks Tree Service & Consulting Review

I had trouble getting a tree service to my home. I had a tree that was dangerously leaning toward our house which needed to come down asap. Most tree services I contacted had an answering machine and then waited 2-3 days before they called me back. One service it was a week before I heard from them. All told me 2-3 weeks to a month before they could come to take down the tree! I finally called Mark who answered the phone, came over the next day for an estimate and the following day his men showed up and took down our tree and other trees that were posing a problem on our property. They were very professional, quick at what they did, and cleaned up our yard after they were done as if they were never there. I would use them again without hesitation and highly recommend them.

My mother, Carol Fisher, contracted to have trees and one stump removed. She paid for both up front. The trees were removed but they failed to come back and remove the stump. After three phone calls and no response they basically took her money and ran. Never will ever recommend them to anyone.

Not able to leave message on phone number provided.Did not answer e-mail inquiry.

Ordered 4 cords of firewood. Took them weeks to make the first delivery which finally showed up one day at 6:00 am (in the dark) and turned out to be almost entirely soft maple / silver maple. Called to ask what the next delivery would be because soft maple is very low quality firewood. The nice lady on the phone said she'd talk to Mark and let me know. No answer. After several more weeks and several phone calls finally the second delivery came; again at 6:00 am (in the dark). More soft maple. Refused the load. Wasn't easy but finally got Mark on the phone. He proudly proclaimed soft maple is hardwood and good firewood. Seriously??? If you're talking about a tree then soft maple is technically a hardwood but nobody wants it as firewood.....at $250 per cord!! Then he told me to take my business elsewhere. Gladly. I've had tree work estimates from him before. Arrogant and rude. Stay away!! Spend your money on quality hardwood.

Do not pay these guys until they finish all the work - they con you into paying the total amount, but never come back to grind the tree stumps, which takes a lot of their time. Never give them more than half the agreed upon amount otherwise like all the other 1 reviews they won t be coming back.

They did a good job removing shrubs. Mark promised to complete job & remove stumps but has not done the rest of work. He does not return calls . It was been a few weeks since work was started. Full page ads for this company should be ignored.

I recently bought a cord of firewood from Marks. The wood what s the livered exactly as scheduled. The driver was polite and courteous and professional.
The wood Burns great but my inly issue is that most of the wood was not split to small enough pieces. It makes a little bit difficult to carry and to burn efficiently.

Mark's Tree Service is very professional and affordable. Would and have recommended this service to others.

Worst company ever. These guys hit our mailbox with their truck. They sat in front of our house trying to bend the mailbox into shape for five minutes. Just to leave a destroyed mail box. We called and left a message about the damage just for no return call. Now we need to spend 100 dollars to replace the post and mailbox. Shame on them for not leaving a note or fixing the mailbox. Best part is we have pictures of the entire thing, which we will turn over to the police.

Really great price and extremely fast, professional work. They took down four trees for us that were right in between a bunch of utility lines in almost no time at all. Would recommend to anyone.

Worst tree service. They are offering few hundred bucks cheaper than anyone in that localities but they are totally irresponsible. They cut all our trees with in few hours and left all logs on front yard for 3 weeks and they broke our mail box, lamp post and drive ways.. Don t try to save few bucks by hiring mark and it will end up loosing more..

Mark's Tree Service was the fastest to be able to remove my tree so I hired them to remove and grind the stump. I wasn't going to be home, but left a check with my son to pay them. They took my tree down on a Saturday and took the check [which I overwrote to provide a gratuity], telling my son that they would come back on Tuesday at the latest [it's on my Ring Video Doorbell recording]. It is almost 2 weeks later, and while I don't care when it is actually "stumped", they won't return my calls asking when it might be done. I have been nicer than nice to this point, but I am getting frustrated. You'd have thought with my overpayment they'd be more available. I will update/change my review for their actual work when they actually do it. If they don't, I'll post pictures and video.

Update: They finally did the work, but they tore the stump to shreds and left the mess for me to clean up. Another tree service who did work for me cleaned up that mess and left me with no work afterward. This was shady. I would not recommend Mark's Tree Service.

The owner responded promptly to our inquiry and scheduling. The crew was professional, safe and efficient. 100+ foot tree was down and cleared completely in 2.5 hours. We waited 15 years to remove the tree and couldn't be happier with the results.

Not much follow up, gave up on waiting called someone else

Violated noise ordinances and conned an old man into taking down perfectly good 150 year old trees. Crossed into neighboring yards without permission. The damage can't be undone.

The crew working at our house allowed a large limb of a tree to fall on our chain link fence the repair of which cost over three hundred dollars. They seemed either in too much of a rush or not knowledgeable about how to do the job correctly
