    I had MULTIPLE ISSUES with the service from Sammy the Tree Guys crew. If something is an easy access maybe your he is fine to hire. But from my experience only use Sammy THe Tree Guy if the trees you need down are out in the open with absolutely nothing else around. I used him because he was cheaper (my quotes for tree removal ranged from $3k-8k), and he told me the trees and shrubs in a 30 foot (yes thirty) radius would not be harmed when he took down my huge ******* Not the case in the end. Sammy was in ** when his staff took down my $3K tree and they messed up the lawn and indiscriminately cut down nearby trees. A privacy hedge Sammy told me would not be bothered, is completely gone (all 20 feet of it). Expect to also fill lawn divits from the fallen large bits-they won't do it for you. And leaving a huge chunk of cut too?? It was a 2-3 foot diameter slab about 1.5-2 feet tall. How is a homeowner to deal with a huge piece like that not taken by the service you paid $3k to ?! It was left and they never returned. Sammy was very nice perhaps hes just a good salesman talkin the talk :( but did not provide what he said he could when I asked for all the details on what he could do when he visited for the quote. And when i called him about the unmovable slab of wood he left, he said hed be back for the HUGE piece they didnt take-but never did come back!! And the base of the ****** at ground level was where two trunks metabout 5 feet across. It was supposed to be taken to ground level, but I have a remaining trunk thats up to my chest. Clearly, if something is too hard to get out, Sammys crew just doesnt finish the job.

    BEWARE Hired Sammy for landscaping. We paid for all the materials. He used our equipment . Never finished the job. Only one tree was edged, Left our yard in worse condition than when he started, including a big hole . Promised to return to finish up the work. Heard every excuse. Have another job tomorrow will be back next week, In Mexico , went to Texas for shrimp and the latest in Brazil. Now were blocked Pipes etc were already there, needed the dry well dug and finished, edging around trees , weeding and mulch ( we have a weed barrier under mulch as its done every year. Weeding was minimal. The crew added much on top of weeds. Was suppose to bring top soil and seed where the trees were removed. Brought brown clay like fill with stones and seeded. Did not take. Don’t let his pictures fool you. He has been reported Finding out we are not the first ones EDIT. Job was started in April. Picture is recent. (July) We tried working with Sammy. Our goal was to work together. I gave Sammy numerous chances to work together and make it right. ( we support small businesses). I did tell Sammy I would report him if he did not get back to us in a week. ( thats after the “I’m in Brazil with family” home next week. I was then blocked. Sent another phone message saying to get together and “Let’s work it out “. Was told I was “harassing me”. Gave him another week than reported. Very Surprised as what I have heard from others. I am not alone
