"Good experience overall with B. Haney and Sons. They pruned our front-yard oak and trimmed back the maples that were rubbing on the roof. Office took a couple of follow-ups to schedule, but the field crew was top-notch and the work was done right. Trees look great."
"I have been using B. Haney for our property for years. They prune our maples every other winter and the trees have never looked healthier. There is something to be said for hiring an arborist company that has been doing this since 1940 — the experience shows in every cut."
"Storm damage cleanup after a major thunderstorm. Crew showed up the morning after our call, removed the fallen limbs, cleaned up the debris, and even hauled away wood from neighbors who pitched in. Went above and beyond."
