Remove tree from backyard

Andrew was extremely professional, showed up on time with reasonable estimate and finished with a cleaned yard like nothing happened. I would recommend him to anyone with my whole heart. It's rare nowadays to find a professional contractor like this. Thank you Andrew, and thank you Homestars.com.

Excellent company

I had a locus tree trimmed, as we'll as a spruce and my rose bush. Andrew was quick to respond to my request for a quote, arrived when he said he would, and was very courteous. I highly recommend this company for your pruning needs.

tree removal + stump grind + tree pruning

Had a large spruce tree in front yard that i wanted to remove. Also had a tree in the backyard i wanted pruned. Contacted Andrew via email for a quote. He came by the house the next day. He answered all the questions i had and after getting a few other quotes, his price was competitive.
He broke down various options for me (including costs). I decided to go with the tree removal, grind down of the stump and pruning of my other tree.

We made an appointment for the week after and he arrived promptly on the day.
My neighbor popped out when he arrived and Andrew was nice enough to help alleviate any concerns he may have had.

The spruce tree was cut down piece by piece. My neighbor and I watched and we were both impressed by his swiftness/efficiency.
While pruning of the tree, Andrew was quite patient with me and my nosy father who pointed out more branches of the tree we liked to see trimmed.

Cleanup was done in parallel by his crew. No complaints there as subtract the missing tree, my yard looks the same as before.

Seems like a family business run by friendly people. I would definitely recommend Andrew to colleagues/friends/family.

Large tree removal

We had what seemed to be the biggest spruce tree in Ajax in the middle of our front yard, and set out for estimates to have it removed. Andrew and his team were quick with an estimate and came to our place not long after. We were very impressed with their professionalism and workmanship and decided to have them remove another tree while they were there. Everything was done so quickly and they also did an excellent job to make sure everything was cleaned up afterward. Would not hesitate to have them return for future work or recommend. Our property looks so much better with the tree removed- many neighbours have commented as well. Thanks again, sorry it took me so long to write this review!

Backyard linden trees & neighbour's large silver maple

Our two backyard linden trees took quite a beating in the ice storm of 2013 & had to be trimmed on short notice. We were not satisfied with the results but had to wait a few years to let the trees recover. Meanwhile, we did some research and a retired tree arborist recommended Brooklin Tree Care and a few other companies. After consulting with three companies, we decided to hire Brooklin Tree Care. We were 100% satisfied with the work they did on our trees and our neighbour's silver maple. Their work was of the highest quality and we were impressed with the fact that we fully informed of what they planned on trimming/cutting. They arrived on time, worked non-stop, with safety in mind & left our yard super clean. We plan on recommending them to anyone who is looking for highly qualified professionals. The cost was also very reasonable.

Two Linden Trees trimmed.

I have two large Linden trees, one in the front of my house and one in the back. They are beautiful trees, and I love them, but they have grown so large and wide over the years. The branches were getting too close to the house and it was time for a big haircut!
I had a look on HomeStars and found Andrew Evans from the ReLeaf Group, and took a look at his website. I was impressed by his credentials and the high marks he received on this site, and so contacted him re. the job. He came out and gave me an estimate for both trees and told me to wait until the Fall when the tree would be dormant. Andrew has a calm, knowledgeable demeanour and is very easy to talk to. He arrived in November as scheduled with his crew, and did a fantastic job on my trees! Wow! What a difference it made! I can't wait to see them in full leaf in the summer, where I'm sure I'll notice the full effect.
The tree out front dwarfed my home, and I was forever chopping the lower branches off so people didn't have to duck when passing by, no more of that thank goodness! The one in the back also dwarfed it's surroundings, and with its shade, killed off my grass to boot-- so I'm looking forward to enjoying more sun this year! (You can just see the tree peeking out from back yard in "before" photo!)
Thank you Andrew and the team, for doing such a great job, I would highly recommend you to anyone in need of tree care!
P.S. I only have one before photo, and a couple in progress which shows the work part way through, but I will post new photo's this year when the trees are in leaf so you can see the changes.

Remove tree in front yard

Andrew responded quickly to my first inquiry and in all subsequent correspondence. He was able to come and remove the tree within a couple of weeks and did so without making a big mess / destroying the plants around the tree and of course he cleaned up and removed all the debris.

___________________________________________
Andrew Evans H.L.T. is the owner and founder of ReLeaf Group and an International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) Certified Arborist.

Andrew unearthed his passion for trees during his high school summer vacation job at a local nursery, where he was introduced to all the different trees, shrubs, annuals and perennials. His first experience with nature was a lasting one. After two summers at the nursery he was hired as an Ontario junior ranger with the Ministry of Natural Resources and was stationed in northern Ontario, tasked with maintaining canoe portage trails and tree planting.

After graduating from high school, he knew he wanted to pursue a career in the green industry. He spent the next three years studying at Humber College graduating with honors in arboriculture (the care of trees) and received an honours diploma in landscape horticulture. He was awarded the Board of Governors' Award, which honours the most accomplished student.

From Humber College, Andrew was immediately hired by the City of Toronto and over the next thirteen years he was involved in pruning, removal, planting, fertilizing and inspection of trees in city parks and streets. As part of an select group, he spent six of those years working under contract to the Canadian Food Inspection Agency where he was trained to inspect trees for infestation of the Asian Long Horned Beetle and the Emerald Ash Borer.

The ReLeaf Group was founded as a part-time business to provide tree care service to private home owners but his exceptional reputation soon grew his business into a full time venture.

Extensive credentials combined with expansive experience!
