They hit my garage with a tree and claiming it never happened. Horrible company with horrible customer service. They weren’t even willing to meet me at my house to see the damage. Also ran over my clean out with their truck and broke it. Unethical
Very professional company! Labors were very safe and very efficient in cutting down my pine tree of 30 years of growth!
Smooth process and good work at a fair price.
Smitty's is our go to for tree trimming/removal in the Beverly area. Smitty's has both trimmed back trees to the property line, away from our roof, and removed a large tree. Pricing has been more than reasonable, the assigned rep for each job has always been helpful, and the crews have been very efficient and professional!
Smitty Tree Service did an outstanding job cutting down and trimming trees on my property. They were very professional and careful not to damage my property. I am really impressed with their company. I will use them again and recommend anyone who needs a tree service company to book with them. Thank you!
My tree removal experience was very pleasant. Sandy gave me an estimate and answered my concerns professionally. I wish I could remember the crews names but they were professional coordinated and meticulously organized. I have a new respect for the tree removal industry.
A "TEAM" of men came and took down a very tall Christmas tree in the front of my house faster than I could have imagined. They proceeded to cut it into smaller pieces to grind and cleaned up all the small pieces. They had a great system to watch. Other people came back a week or so later to grind down the large…
Smitty’s tree service did an outstanding job. I had a 40 foot tree that got blown over in the storm. They came out they took it down, cleaned up the mess. It took out the stump, very professional and courteous. I had no problems with them. I highly recommend their service. They are a very talented company and they…
They were supposed to cut down two trees, grind the stumps, and install mulch in our retaining walls. All they did was cut the 2 trees and sent an invoice for the full amount of all 3 requested services. Why would we pay for services that we did not receive? We still have received no communication for when they…
Smitty’s did a wonderful job, were very professional, responsive and overall a positive experience.
Tree was uprooting close to the house and Smitty's came to remove with in a day in freezing weather thankfully !
The work was done professionally and the execution was very fast. Thank you very much.
I'm happy with the work Smitty's performed. They trimmed 4 large trees for me and also removed a 5th tree (and ground the stump). Incidentally, the crew left a large piece behind, but all it took was a phone call and sending a photo via text, and they sent someone to collect the remainder the very same day I let…
Smitty's Tree Service, Inc. Is the REAL DEAL. Two years ago I had them trim 3 trees at my Mom's house. They were prompt, efficient, and cleaned up behind themselves. They also gave me a few tips to take care of the trees. Recently I had them out to my house to remove 4 bushes that had outgrown their spaces in my…
Smitty's Tree Service did a fantastic job with trimming several trees on our property. They were very friendly and professional. They worked in a safe and courteous manner and it was obvious they are very well trained. I would highly recommend Smitty's for you tree trimming and removal needs.
Excellent tree trimming and removal of stump.
Great Company to do business with !
A severe thunderstorm knocked down a large tree behind my house. They quickly cut down the rest of the tree and removed it from my property. They did the job well and quickly!
Smittys did a good job in the removal of my trees. Even during a misunderstanding they worked with me and got the job done
I called Smitty’s on Monday, Someone came out and gave a quote on Tuesday. The Trees were cut and removed on Wednesday.
Smitty's came out and took care of business! The results were perfect!
You guys did an excellent job couldn’t have had a better company. Everything was perfect thank you very much.
I have used Smitty’s Tree service 3 times. Once to remove a very large tree pushing in my brick garage wall. They rescued the day and saved me many dollars by carefully removing the tree. I only needed to do a small brick wall repair. Recently I had trees removed, that were in danger of falling on my driveway. The…
Smitty's did a great job! They were professional, on time, and quick. Highly recommend!
Smitty's is very professional. All the people who worked on tree removal and stump removal were very competent. They wanted to make sure I was approving of their work. I was very pleased with their kind professionalism in showing me all the excellent work they did! They did all the work in one hour too.
Smitty’s removed a tree in my backyard. The work crew were very professional. They did a great job. I would hire them again.
I was very satisfied with the work completed by Smitty’s: they were very polite, efficient & they cleaned up. I have used them before & will use them again 🙏🏾😊😊😊🙏🏾 My neighbor seen to have also been pleased.
I’ve used Smitty’s on three occasions to either trim or remove old trees. They have done what was promised at a fair price and on a time that was promised.
Wonderful, came out quickly and gave us a quote within an hour. The trucks were here shortly after that, and the large tree that had come down into my neighbours yard was removed
They were very professional and respectful of our property. When they were finished with the work, they cleared up the area. I’ve already referred them to my friends
I called them to cut down a small tree in my parents backyard. They cut the tree down but didn't clean up their mess professionally. The same tree has grown back the next year. I would not recommend.
Their prices were very competitive. They were very attentive to our needs. They showed up on time, and when they were done they asked us if we were satisfied with their service making sure we were happy. And if course we were. And I would and have recommended Smittys to many others.
Showed up on time, removed tree quickly and cleaned up after themselves. Highly recommend!
The service was excellent. However, I received a phone call from the office claiming they sent me three invoices this month and the call was for me to pay now. I informed the lady that I never received any invoice and I was waiting to receive a notice to pay. Asked her for the balance and told her i was sending her…
We've used Smitty's Tree Service on several occasions and they always exceeded our expectations; Our property is looking great thanks to Smitty's! Thank you!
We had two large bushes that needed removal. Smitty's had the best price, were on time, kept us informed on when JULIE would be out so they could grind out the stumps. We'd use then again.
The people at Smittys were top notch. From the person I talked to on the phone to the crew that came to do the work. We will definitely be using them again.
We have used Smitty's in the past and never had an issue but this time will be the last after the customer service, harassment and the mess. We had a lady come out and give us an estimate for a tree stump removal, at the time we agreed to the price and handed her a check. They came out and removed the stump and…
Prompt arrival time. Very professional. Respectful of my property. Would use again!
I was completely satisfied from estimate to stump grinding, Sandy Stillwell, estimator, was knowledgeable, informative, professional, and most important, pleasant. She provided excellent customer service by following-up on service experience post-tree removal. Office staff and scheduling department were efficient…
This company is very professional. I have had 4 trees removal from my yard. I am totally satisfied. Yes with all great service you pay for what you get, if you want no worries and problems, call Smitty’s Tree Service. Yes, I did.😊
I also had firewood delivered. Their sevices is professional, detailed, clean, and fast. They are just a phone call away, and follow up quickly with quotes, and service.
Smitty's is super great to work with, from the expert consultation through the final cleanup. (Sandy is a fantastic arborist!) They were accommodating and patient with a situation that necessitated rescheduling. The crew members are knowledgeable and friendly. We've hired them several times -- Smitty's is our go-to company.
Service was very good.
I have used Smitty's Tree Services several times. Response is quick. An Arborist will go and inspect the area of your request. Photos are taken and submitted with a proposal for your acceptance. Questions are welcomed. Pricing is in line with the industry standard. You are given reasonable time to make a…
Called Smitty’s when a mature oak fell on my garage. Within a couple of hours, they were on site with the right equipment to safely remove the tree, which reached all the way over my neighbor’s house. Have since had their arborist inspect the remaining trees, having another oak removed after finding a severe amount…
My huge tree in the back yard was knocked down during a big storm. I called Smitty's at 8:30 am, their adjuster was at my house by 9:30. He had a crew come at 1:00 pm and the tree was completely gone by 4:30 pm! That was some great service!
I have used Smitty's Tree Service three times in the last two years. The first job was the removal of 6-7 foot high hedges infront of the front porch and front window. The second job was the removal of what was regarded as the two story high Halloween tree that was great for the season but ugly for the other seasons…
Arrived on time, made quick work of tree and stump and did a good job of cleaning up
Fantastic crew. Knowledgeable, kind, courteous, and very professional. They completed the job and cleaned up as if they were never there. I highly recommend Smitty's for your arbor needs.
Smitty's was very professional & did a great job! I've got no complaints.
Show up on time Did what they said they would do Did it well
Very professional. They did a great job. I think their prices was very fair.
Good, fast, reliable, and professional service. Also the price was reasonable. I used them twice this year and the communication experience with the staff was great.
Smitty's went over and beyond. They were extremely mindful of my neighbors and cleaning up. They were prompt and thorough. Highly recommended .... Great job Smitty's!!!!!!!!
Thank you for the work done in the yard. Very efficient and cleaned up very well.
I needed 4 trees on my property removed so I interviewed several tree removal contractors. Smitty's Tree Service Inc had the most experience and offered the best value for my money. Smitty's arrived to my property with many sparkly red trucks that were CLEAN and HUGE. Also, the large crew was culturally diverse and…
The company took down a very large pine tree, quite near our home and the neighbor's fence. No problems occurred. The stump was completely removed. They also trimmed a large amount of limbs and branches that were very high on another tree. Well done. The employees are all excellent. We live in Orland Park. My wife and I recommend this company.
As with any homeowner looking to get a huge project done, I did my research and spoke with 3 other companies. Smitty's got back to me very quickly with scheduling the estimate and was able to answer all of my questions and assure me that they could safely remove the huge maple (with an equally huge canopy over my…
Their performance was fantastic!! They were very neat, cautious and meticulous. They removed a very large tree without touching the 2 adjacent houses and completed the job very fast. They are definitely the people to call for tree removal.
The team arrived on time and were very professional. They cleaned up after themselves and left the premises in tip top shape. I would definitely use them again.
Great people to work with and their work is very professional. We hired them 3 different times for tree service and the job was always done right.
Great great service. Very responsive, great communication, and they do really good work. Highly recommended.
I have used Smitty's twice. Worked with Sandy, she is an Angel, and very knowledgeable! Service was completed on time and as expected. Did beautiful clean up. Will definitely use again!!
Very professional and they did a great job!
Very responsive and great job with tree branches and debris removal after severe storm.
Chaz from Smitty's is very responsive and follows up to make sure that work done is correct, and when needed he sends crews who are polite and do good work.
Smitty's came out and promptly got the job done as they committed to. I can't recommend them enough.
They were courteous and quick to complete the job as scheduled. I would use and recommend their services again. Good job!
Used smittys to remove two trees /stumps and an arm off a very large tree. The crew sent were very professional and knowledgeable. I was nervous because of the trees proximity to my home but they removed both trees with ease. Worth every penny.
Smitty’s has always been our go to business for our tree service. They are very responsive to our requests and complete the work exactly as contracted. They do a great job and always clean up the work site. We are always very pleased with their work.
They took care of scheduling with utility company and they showed up to complete the job as coordinated in January! These jobs are not for the DIY'ers Smitty's prices are reasonable for all they deliver. They have a professional team, I will hire them again.
Smitty's removed an old crab apple tree from our front year. Their team was on time as scheduled, and the removal was quick. Their clean-up was excellent. The cost for the tree removal and stump removal was great. Would definately use them again! No complaints!
We had some trees that fell during a period of heavy winds. We had additional trees on our property that we wanted removed to avoid any potential damage to our swimming pool and fence in the event they fell during a storm. Smiity's did a great job in resolving the issue. There team was very professional and responsive.
Very efficient , courteous workers.
We put off getting a couple trees cut down for way too long. We finally called Smitty's and they were incredibly easy to work with. I think the whole process took 10 minutes of my time to set up and they took it from there. Their processes are efficient and their teams and coordinated well. They followed through…
This Fall we had to bid good-bye to 2 enormous trees - friends for half a century - in our side yard. Smitty's removed them and at our request, referred us to a company to replace the trees just as professionally.
Received a quotation and accepted the bid. They had a crew out the same day to remove the tree. They were fast and cleaned up all the broken branches unlike another service I used in the past. They were clear in explaining that they would return in a week or so (depending on weather to remove the stump. Couldn't ask for a quicker response time.
The team that came out to cut my trees down and remove the stump were very professional and cleaned the area very well after completion. A job well done!
Had a very tall tree removed this month which was dying. Had Smittys do the work. They are professionals, they come equipped to take care of the project, very professional equipment and knowledge. They were very careful of the cars in the adjacent parking lot and wasted no time in completing the job. Have used…
Everyone was friendly and respectful. My tree was down and removed quickly and the area was cleaned up. I would highly recommend this service. I was more than satisfied.
We had a dead tree at the side of the house to be removed. Smitty’s answered my call on the first ring. Sandy came out for an estimate, schedule and regular updates on the schedule. When the crew came out, announced themselves, got to work as a team and finished 90 minutes. They did an excellent job cleaning up and would highly recommend them.
Smitty's was great to deal with. Responded to voice mail promptly and came out within a couple of days to look at job and give estimate. I had 5 trees cut down and two additional stumps removed. They came on time and did a great job. I will be using them again and would highly recommend them.
We had Smitty's out to remove a line of hedges/bushes, turned out to be 10 of them total. The quote was fast and broken up into removal and stump grinding. Price was under what I had expected. Whole process went great. Removal, and Julie before stump grinding. Even cleaned up all the mulch and left over pine…
MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR to everybody at SMITTY'S TREE SERVICE excellent 👍👍 service you guys are the best
I was totally impressed with the service, the way a tree is removed is fascinating. The men that did the work especially the one that handled the controls. Everything was professional, the way they cleaned up you would never know they were there. I would recommend Smitty’s highly.
Smitty's crew did a great job, I would recommend them.
Tree service was done at a great price and in a timely manner
Last summer, Smitty's was quick in responding and scheduling to remove half of a tree left in my yard after a tornado. This summer I had them come out to trim and clean up an overgrown tree. It was interesting to watch the process, and their expertise was evident. Great job, would definitely choose Smitty's again if I need them.
Your technician did a great job. He took care not to disturb the rose bushes around the stump. He used fencing to capture chunks of stump from being tossed around the yard and porch. And he raked ands smoothed out all debris around both stumps. Thanks.
Great service, fair price and free estimates! We had a large pine tree cut down & stump removed. They left the area clean. We highly recommend them for any tree work! We will definitely use them again and again for our next projects. 😃 Satisfied Bolingbrook customer
They came when promised and did a great job cleaning up after they trimmed and removed the trees.
Great Company, very professional in all correspondence I had with them and competitive price for the job.
They are very professional I’m thinking about recommending them to our alderman to help service area Chicago Sanitation team isn’t able to manage sufficiently
Outstanding job. I was removing most of the trees from my yard & trimming what I was keeping & this group was done was quicker then i thought possible. They also worked with me what it came to removing my fence, and agreed to come back later in the week to remove the stumps that the fence was blocking. Very easy to work with, i would recommend to anyone.
I had them come out for an estimation, and during the consultation they even offered me the promotion that I didn't even know was going on. I asked for wood to also be left, and I thought I would get more, but I didn't mind as long as the trees were gone.
A difficult rear lot job over utility wire's. High tech equipment was phenomenal. Great crew and a job well done!
The price was reasonable... The crew arrived early, removed the stump, and left the area clean! Thank You!!
I was happy with their services, they were on time, friendly, and cleaned up nicely. I would recommend Smitty's.
Did a great job and cleaned up my yard better than it was before they got there. Highly recommended
