Glad's Landscaping & Tree Trimming Inc.

Aug 2011

I hired Glad's Landscaping & Tree Trimming Inc to cut several very large branches of a banyan tree hanging 15ft over our property. Their price was very competitive. I hired them because they were licensed and fully insured which is important for a job requiring ropes and climbing. I checked that their employees actually had workers comp in addition to other insurance. Many companies told me they were licensed and insured but this is not always the case. A lot of times the owner of the company will have worker's comp, but not the employees. There are a lot of dangers in cutting such an overwhelmingly big tree and accidents do happen. There was a minor accident with my fence which got slightly chipped, but this didn't surprise me entirely considering this was a huge job - a tree of almost 40ft tall. They immediately fixed within a couple of days better than it was before. It was amazing to see their teamwork using ropes, pushing, pullng, and gently lowering each cut limb from 30 ft in the air. They had great customer service, were very professional, and did a great job.
