Select Quotes from Customer Reviews

A selection from 495 homeowner reviews:

“I got two companies to look at it. One company said it was very difficult and that they couldn’t guarantee the tree wouldn’t fall on the house. I think Odd Job said, ‘We can do this. We just have to figure it out.’ They did, and it was no problem at all. The work was perfect. Every tree seemed to be a different challenge to them, and they would reason things out that way.”

“I thought Eddie from Odd Job was great. He took down a dead tree and then trimmed a lot of trees away from the house that were sort of getting leaves into the gutter. He got the permits from the city and everything—I didn’t have to do anything.”

“He is excellent. He takes care of all my trees, takes them down. I had one of them blow over on my house. He came out with his machine and lifted it over the house. He’s good, and he knows what he is doing.”

"They are fantastic.  I’ve used Eddie Thomas since he started his business, probably 30 years ago.  I just ask him to do the job, and he does it right and always treats me well.  He’s removed a number of trees, has done a lot of pruning, and just keeps on top of everything."
