Wind Damaged Tree

When I took possession of my home, I was informed that bylaw had strapped the large tree in the back as it was about to crush the neighbor’s fence. Wanting to save the tree and get it taken care of fast, I called several arborists. Tree Doctor was the only one to answer the phone (not a voicemail) and have Clay come out the next day. He assessed the tree and made several very educated recommendations. When he said they could save the tree, I was thrilled. They showed 2 days later and did an amazing job. The tree surgery looks great! They trimmed up the tree and it looks strong and vibrant. After they completed the work, I received phone calls from other companies returning my initial inquiries. I informed them they were too late that the work had already been completed by Tree Doctor.
I have been dealing with numerous companies in the past month as I am in the middle of major renovations. I have not experienced better customer service then from the Tree Doctor. Professional, knowledgeable and on time. These guys know how to run a successful company!

Tree Pruning & Fertilizing

Very knowledgeable staff who explained the options to us and provided an extremely reasonable quote in comparison to a number of other companies we had out to give us quotes. Our trees look healthier and happier since we had the Tree Doctor out to take care of them.

Tree pruning and removal

Completely Unprofessional !!! When I booked an appointment with the owner I mentioned that I would be taking the day off work. They did not show up and did not return my calls until 9 p.m. that night. I rebooked and the owner gave me his word that they would be there by noon. I took the day off and again they did not show up. Then he argued with me on the phone. I cancelled the job and a week and half later they showed up unannounced to treat the trees after I had cancelled the job. Other tree companies indicated that their recommendations were not correct and they may have damaged my trees. Stay far away from these guys !!!

We do apologize to this customer.
When we schedule tree work, we are susceptible to modified the schedule without notice if we have bad weather of mechanical break down.
This is very embarrassing when we have a customer who schedule a day off to be home when we perform the pruning or removal of their trees.
My crew leader had mechanical issues and did not have been able to make it to the customer house that specific day.
We do very long days in the busiest time of the season, I have been informed of that situation when I came back home at the end of the day around 9 PM. We can only apologize after fact.

Tree pruning

I hired the tree doctor to trim my trees and lets just say, this company is a gong show. Paul, who owns the company is rude and unprofessional. They sent out unqualified arborists, even thought they said they're qualified. They damaged my roof and never used a bucket truck when they said they would. They walked on my fence, roof and bricks on the front of my house. I called Paul out and he just wanted to argue with me. I paid my dues, told him i would let other know about my experience. Coles notes, I would hire a company that doesn't ,ales excuses and take a month to finish pruning three trees.

Hello Kyle,
It is not true that we damaged your property.
It is true that our tree worker climbed on your garage roof to prune the branches touching the roof without damaging your roof. That was the best way to perform the work being sure that nothing will damage the roof.
I know you were upset because they did not ask permission and we apologized for that.
The first thing I did when I returned at your place to inspect the job is an inspection of the roof you claim we damaged.
There was no damages at all, and I kept the pictures showing those evidences.
You asked me a financial compensation because my employee climbed on the roof. I would agree with that if any damages would have been done to your roof but that was not the case.
When I refused to give you a credit, you told my that you will write down a bad review here.
So you did what you said and you wrote down a bad review because I refused to give you money for an unjustified claim.
Your Tree Doctor will take responsibility if any damages are done to the customer property while we perform the work. No damages have been done here.
We would never give a credit to a customer only because the customer threat us to write down a bad review.
Paul Saindon, owner of Your Tree Doctor

Arborist

I called based on the recommendations of this site. They told me Kyle works my area and he would call to set up an appointment within 2 days. Kyle finally gets around to calling me a week later. He arrives and is all over the map but I figured maybe this is how these guys are. He promises me a quote right away and would get to the work by the weekend depending on weather. Kyle disappeared!!! Today I found the card he left and discovered the number was out of service. I called the office and got the owner he headed right over and stayed right there to give me a quote for immediate and for the follow-up work. He treated my trees and promises he will be here next week to do the removals of the diseased trees and the pruning. I am so glad that I didn't give up and tried again. It turns out Kyle was a very dishonest individual who left the company in a bad way the beginning of the week. Paul is the owner and you can see that what Kyle did has had a personal effect on him. If you had Kyle promise you service or misrepresent this company don't give up on the company they are very knowledgeable and honest.

Thank You Lori,
It is very hard to find good reliable employee in Calgary. It is even harder to find good reliable Certified Arborist. We did a mistake when we trusted Kyle to serve our customers in your area of the City. We apologize for the delay before you got the service. I am glad you understand the situation we went through.
I am glad to tell you that we hired a new Certified Arborist that is highly qualified and reliable. Her name is Kristina, she own an Environmental Horticulture and Arboriculture diploma with Old College and she is also a Certified Journeyman Gardner. We can now guaranty that you will have a real professional to your place if you call Your Tree Doctor tree care service again.
I am sure that you will be please with Kristina next time you will need services for your tree and shrubs.

Tree fertilizing and treating

I called Your Tree Doctor in early April and the estimator came out very promptly. He was very courteous and informative and suggested treatment for an ailing pine tree. He did say that they had to wait for the sap to be running so I knew it would be a while. Mid May I contacted them and they couldn't find the quote; they didn't call back; end of May I tried again as the estimator had assured me the quote was in the office; beginning of June, still no work done. Finally somebody shows up the middle of June after I sent an email complaining about the terrible service (the email was never responded to though). I don't know what the problem was, but perhaps if you can deal directly with the owner you'll get service.

Hello Will,
I apologize for what happen last Spring. I realized when you sent an email that your contract (under your wife name) was still in the binder : pending acceptation. I can't explain why the information that you accepted the contract did not have been write down on the contract.
I did schedule the service as soon as possible after that.
We do not enter your personal information in our computer database before we got an accepted quote. That was the reason why our receptionist was not able to find your contract a the moment you called.
She didn't know that your quote has been accepted.
I apologize for that lake of communication within our services.
I will send you today a 10% credit coupon on your next tree fertilization with Your Tree Doctor.

Tree Removal

We had Paul remove four massive spruce trees (3 in the front, 1 in the back) and a struggling crap apple tree from our yard. We had all the roots ground. The trees were far too big for the space and too close to the house. Paul's team worked really well. They removed all the trees with no damage or disruption to our property. They hauled all the remaining wood and debris away. I would absolutely recommend Your Tree Doctor on price, quality, and service.

Thank your Lindsay for your review,
The most important thing when we have to remove trees is the protection of your property against any damages.
As a member of the Tree Care Industry Association, Your Tree Doctor as good liability insurance coverage. So fare we never had to use it. Thanks to our professional tree workers.

Tree removal and stump grind

Paul was on time, informative and gave a very competitive price for the removal and stump grinding of 6 trees plus a couple of shrubs. He also gave great advice on how to rescue (aka tame) a couple of shrubs that had got out of control. The work was done on time and in a very professional and careful manner. Communication throughout the whole process was excellent. Highly recommended.

Tree removal

I used Your Tree Doctor to remove an entire property line worth of overgrown caragana trees, take out an 80 year old tree from a tight space between the garage and the house and to trim up an overgrown evergreen. They did a great job of the work and I would be happy to recommend them to complete some fairly major landscaping work!

Tree pruning and fertilizing

Recently moved into house where the trees had not been properly maintained over the years. Had a lot of trees and bushes that required a lot of major pruning and fertilizing. This company provided excellent service at what I felt was a reasonable price. Would definitely use again and would recommend.
