I had Mr. Rolf Briggs come out to my house to give me an estimate on getting rid of some trees including a fallen tree in my backyard. Mr. Rolf Briggs was very professional and informative. We agreed on the work that was going to be completed and a more than fair price. Mr. Briggs is a very honest and genuine man who actually cares about his customers and it is not about the money with him.The Tree Specialist office was a pleasure to deal with Sherry. She was professional and very courteous. After our conversation to schedule when the work was going to done, she sent me a contact information flyer confirming the date and time that the work was going to be completed.Mike and his team showed up on time and went right to work. They are very experienced and highly skilled at cutting down trees. They are respectful to your property and work safely. Mike was tuned in with me as a customer and asked questions to make sure we were both on the same page with the work that was going to be completed. Their team did an amazing job beyond my expectations. I would highly recommend them and would hire them again. 100% satisfaction!

They know and love trees! Our landscape designer told us about them, that they knew what made trees healthy. Weve used them twice. They walked our property pointing out a number of items that would influence tree health (such as mulching and watering) as well as recommendations for tree trimming. They provided a plan and trimmed a number of trees for us. Their crew communicates with each other frequently, insuring safety and a high quality of work. And they left the yard cleaner than it was before they arrived.Were more confident that our trees will beautify and endure (and not damage our or our neighbors property) with the Noreasters, ice storms, droughts and intense rain and snow that are expected in coming years.Scheduling, however required patience--the reason for 4 and not 5 stars.

My wife and I have been working with Tree Specialists for over 12 years, and have relied on them exclusively for their excellence in arboriculture. We personally rely upon them for my own 5 acre property. My wife continually refers her clients to Tree Specialists in need of tree care services, and have never received any negative feedback. It is clear that Tree Specialists has a tremendous commitment to tree care excellence and prides themselves on maintaining the highest level of expertise and professionalism in the industry. The level of knowledge and comfort Rolf and his Team provide through their consulting expertise has been very valuable when cases of tree health may not be clear cut. Rolf has always been a pleasure to work with personally, we value his recommendations tremendously, and have truly enjoyed the relationship we have developed throughout the years.

I have had the wonderful pleasure of using and relying completely on owner Rolf Briggs and his large and very professional crews at Tree Specialists since 2000.In addition to providing ongoing and periodic tree removal, Tree Specialists has provided me with regular/seasonal total tree/shrub care, including special root feeding, pruning, disease control, air spading and site clearing, cabling of upper limbs in danger of cracking. The frequent and professional free consulting and hand holding has been invaluable.I have a large 2 acre well cultivated and maintained residential property. Additionally, office/commercial properties also have required Tree Specialist attention as a result of wind and snow storms. Emergency tree clean up responsiveness has been terrific...truly professional.Both Rolf personally, and his team of experts, have been extremely enjoyable to work with over the years and the firm is very reliable and dependable. One of the best aspects of their work has been to examine thoroughly and review the plantings on the properties regularly, identify any current and potential future health concerns, and provide well written documentation/analysis. The Action Plans and budgets have helped prevent future and expensive emergency tree work...and been critical in keeping all plantings in optimal health and shape.Can not say enough great things about Tree Specialists...the best of the very best!

Tree Specialists do outstanding work in my experience. I couldnt be more satisfied. And my trees couldnt be happier and healthier as a result!

They are very professional

If I Could put zero starts I would . these people trespassed on my property with a 50 ton crane parking it on my brand new paved stone driveway in order to work on another street. They caused damaged to my driveway and refused to pay for the damage . Mr. Briggs is a very dishonest person and I would highly recommend to stay away.at least I have proof and will be seeing them in court.

We called Rolf simply to cut up and remove a tree that fell in our back yard and what we got was a WHOLE LOT MORE. Not only did he try to UPSELL us on everything in our yard, but he never completed the work that he was hired to do. We just wanted the tree to be cut up and thrown into the woods so we could get our yard back, they cut it up and left in on the border of our yard, swallowing up more space! It took forever to schedule the appointment and then they changed the work date less than 24 hours before so I was not be available to be there. When I asked him to complete the work he bored me with the “arborist” vs. tree service/landscaper. He “claimed that it was done to his “specs” which is all that matters to him. He actually went as far as saying that he did not want his trucks on my property with bad looking trees in my front yard because that would reflect poorly on him and his business. (You cant make that stuff up!) He was upset that I didn’t accept all of the other work that he tried to upsell! Now I have to pay someone else to clean up their mess even though I had to pay him a portion of the balance (not the full amount). Rolf is insulting, condescending and definitely not a person you want to do business with unless you like being take for a ride or constantly reminded that he’s an “arborist” and you’re not!
