Guy was very responsive, really communicative, and such a safe and hard working individual. We needed a tree removed in a busy time and knew we would need to wait. He communicated as our removal moved up the schedule. He came when he said he would and quickly and safely completed the job. Thank you so much!

My tree removal experience with Guy went very smoothly. I couldn’t ask for a better experience and I was very happy with the quality of the work. I would definitely use for future projects!

Guy’s communication was the best I’ve ever experienced with any professional. He communicated every single step of the process. The work - impeccable. The last picture shows what it looked like before, but trust me, it was way worse. Guy was prompt, efficient and thorough. I couldn’t imagine all of the overgrowth could be cleaned this way. Also, the price was fair and less than other quotes I received. Working with Meristem was amazing! The excellent reviews do NOT lie!
