The Davey Tree Expert Company

a month ago

Driving through Kent, we had a flat tire. We pulled into Davey Tree driveway where we asked an employee for help. He contacted his supervisor who immediately sent several strong and capable younger men to assist us. They changed our flat and installed the spare, inflating it to the correct pressure. What? Who does this anymore? My husband was a volunteer firefighter and I worked in the medical and school systems, so we know how to serve others. How rewarding to be cared for by the younger generation who also know how to graciously and generously serve others, just for a Thank You, not accepting any pay. Geoff Blind, you and your staff are a blessing! You referred us to our choice of tire garages, and Firestone of Kent replaced our flat right away. Thank you so much for all of your kind help.

They do not respect properties around the ones they are working on. My property didn’t even have any trees that needed cut, but they sure like to drive through mine and leave fairly large branches laying on a brand new fence that was just installed this spring. All the branches in this photo are from the neighbors property that Davey did not remove carefully, and they don’t even have the respect to at least remove them from my yard and off of the new fence and shrubs that are planted in my yard. They also have piles of branches left in two other neighbors yards that did not have trees growing that they didn’t care to clean up. Just lazy and disrespectful work from this company, I’m sure they were the cheapest bid for NIPSCO and it sure shows in the quality of their work. They also park their equipment way up my driveway far from any easement or site where work is being done just in the way of my parking

Review Davey tree Outstanding care and service was provided by all of the gentlemen who worked at our home. Kevin scheduled the job around storms and rain and had a crane lift and 4 men at our property within a day before we had heavy winds. There are several 100 year old trees which needed trimming and unfortunately an 80 foot tall tulip poplar that had to come down in a maze of gardens. Mats were laid to protect our lawn which I don’t think other companies are prepared for. They worked hard and did a wonderful job without complaining that I occasionally watched safely out of harms way. The lead man Matt answered my questions and Josh and Aaron did the heavy lifting. Great team! Got most of a huge job done in a day and were back the next morning to finish a few details. I think Kevin’s estimate was correct because we didn’t receive any back charges. Thanks guys! We’ll call you again!

Uses the loves trucks stop in diamond oh 20 minutes from their company in Kent as their personal parking lot. Takes up half the parking lot with 13 trucks taking up at least 16 parking spots most being able to double park this leaves over the road truck drivers with no where to eat or sleep for the night,at least you could do is double park to leave more spots open for other drivers. Why not just park at your company 20 minutes away?

Was hired through my power company to cut branches near power line. There must be 15 feet of clearance for safety reasons. I understand this, but this company cut branches that were not growing towards power lines and now my tree will die. I warned the guys I have a carpenter ant problem and to please do not over trim. They went way beyond cutting just the limbs near power lines. The first tree is my maple. While they did not over trim this tree, they still made unnecessary cuts that were NOT growing towards any power lines. You can see these in the picture. Now, the last tree in the picture WAS my tulip tree. It is a slow growing tree and was barely near any power lines. I told them that tree was not doing well and and to please not over trim that tree as well. You can clearly see they went out of their way to cut MOST OF THE BRANCHES OFF. I had a arborist evaluate the tree and I now have to have it removed (expensive... who has to pay for that?!) due to the fact it will now die and I already have carpenter ant infestation.
