Removed broken tree

Had a tree broken about eight feet up, being help up mostly by utility wires, and overhanging my backyard fence and shed. Craig came within an hour of the call to look things over. He said he would be back mid-afternoon ... and he was. Two hours later, tree gone, no damage to anything, leftover wood neatly stacked. Good response, good work.

Tree removal

Had a large maple split at the trunk leaving one fallen and the other gravely wounded. Got a quick estimate from Craig and he got both trees down with considerable rigging required and a close eye on two neighbours property adjacent. Excellent job, very direct and friendly guy who did what he said he'd do and stuck to his estimate. Very good removal and cleanup. Highly recommended.

removal of fallen tree and vines

My tree entangled with hydro & Bell wires was uprooted by Storm Sandy. Within 2 hours of my phone call Craig was cutting my tree in pieces and freeing the wires. His team returned (on time) to dispose of all branches/vines etc and then cleaned up my yard with a leaf blower (unasked). I would highly recommend CB Tree and if required use them again

Tree pruning and stump removal

Craig is the owner, salesperson, tree trimmer and so is hands on in the business. He is highly responsive, informative, personable, calm, and listens well. He and his crew of two showed up on time, worked hard, were courteous and cleaned up very well. He is warm and a "good soul." He is honest and sincere and its not just about making a 'quick" buck. He trimmed the tree until I was happy with it. He wanted me to "smile" each time I saw it. And he did what he said he would do in a professional and warm manner. Thank you Craig for making my first tree trimming experience such a positive one on a lovely FALL day!

Tree Removal and trimming

I hired Craig from CBTree for a relatively big job and he handled it with aplomb. Total of 4 trees cut down and lots of trimming work. Highly efficient, highly experienced, and cleaned things up afterward. Cannot recommend him highly enough. The cost may not necessarily be the lowest out there, but the job will get done to your satisfaction. I wlll call Craig again for future tree work.

Removal of Our Front Yard Tree

We had a mature tree in our front yard that was relatively close to the house as well as the neighbor’s house, providing us with cool shade for many years. Recently, its main branch developed a large crack that made it a liability, thus we call on CB Tree for their help.

Craig responded promptly to my request for a quote and came over to assess whether we could save the tree and minimize the cost. He provided a very reasonable quote. I was impressed with his expertise and professionalism on the matter and prompt action to temporarily secure the large crack, to avoid further deterioration and mitigate risk, while he proceeded with the municipal paperwork for its removal.

When the approval came through we scheduled his return to cut down the tree and to grind out the stump. Unfortunately, we ran in to some scheduling conflicts due to weather related emergencies, as Craig had to balance his availability in doing triage. We rescheduled the job and Craig and his crew quickly went about reducing our tree efficiently and safely without any impact to the surrounding properties. Craig was also nice enough to help me out with the surrounding landscaping and other miscellaneous requests to even things out a bit for a nominal sum, well below his regular rates.

At the end, Craig and his crew did a great job disposing the tree and cleaning up the yard. By evening, our tree was gone and the stump was turned into wood chips filling in the hole.

All in all I am very happy with the service and I would recommend CB Tree to all tree owners.

Any advice to offer fellow homeowners facing a similar project?
For all tree owners, as your tree matures it need to be trimmed/thinned out periodically to avoid growth that may end up causing damage to itself due to high wind loads. Otherwise you may end up loosing the tree like we did... Talk to CB Tree, they can help.

Tree removal in front yard

I had a great experience with Craig as he took down my front tree after having been told by the City that it was dead and needed to be removed. As discussed, the trunk was left, but the rest was taken down.

I would definitely recommend CB Trees.

Removal of threatening limb

A large, dangerous limb on a Manitoba Maple in our yard was cracked and threatened to damage multiple properties. It was a difficult job given the location of the tree and limited access to the yard. Craig responded quickly and provided a reasonable estimate which he stayed within. He is very knowledgeable, friendly and provided fast, efficient removal and excellent clean-up. I have no hesitation in recommending CB Tree.

Gave my backyard light again!

Craig is a 1st class act through and through. Honest, down to earth and hard working. He came by to give me a quote based on what I outlined. It was no small job. I had a huge Maple tree in my backyard that was creating essentially 24hours of shade in my backyard. My lawn suffered, and no plants would grow. I explained my objectives to Craig, and he offered his useful suggestions, and assured me that he would get me to see the sun again in my backyard!
Boy did he ever deliver. He skillfully trimmed back the Maple tree to give me light, but still left the tree in great shape. He also trimmed some of the trees along my back fence to give me even more light for my garden.

You can tell he's been doing this for awhile, and that he loves what he does. Most importantly he did a great job. He even dealt with both sets of neighbours that had their questions throughout the process, so much so that he now got one of their jobs too to help trim back some of their trees!

One final thing I must mention; he cleaned up once he was done. He left the place spotless when he was all through, and did a walkthrough with me afterwards to show me what he did, and made sure that I was happy.

All in all, CB Tree is a 1st rate company, and I would hands down recommend Craig to anyone looking for an honest, hardworking and skillful arborist.

It was a pleasure working with you Craig, and best of luck with your business going forward.

Kevin.

removal of dead tree branches and one tree

Craig and his staff were fantastic. I had dangerous overhanging limbs plus another tree that needed to be taken out. Craig came the day that I called to provide an estimate and got the work done within the next couple of days as promised. He always communicated with me about his arrival time and what he was doing. He went over and above what the job required but charged the given estimate. He did an amazing job and the clean up was superb. In addition to his great work, he is a lovely guy, easy to work with and a real pro. I was astonished to see him high above the ground doing his work with great skill. I highly recommend him!
