Demore Tree and Landscape

We hired Demore to trim back some tree branches that were encroaching on our house. They offered us the best price out of the several companies we contacted, and did not need us to buy a ~$ 200 oversized truck permit for their vehicle (we live in Cambridge). They got the job done quickly and cleaned up afterward. We’re very pleased.

Wow, had one of the worst experiences seeing this company on the road. One of their trucks (a big yellow one) was fluctuating between 15 — 20 mpg on a 30 mph road and had attracted a massive line of cars behind him by doing so. I was the car right behind the truck and when I passed the yellow truck in a safe and legal area to do so the driver yelled f… you out his window and tried to spit on my vehicle. He was swerving so I wouldn’t be surprised if liquor was involved. I would stay far away from this company. It would be interesting to know if they do background checks on their employees before they give them the keys…

The most reasonable quote of anyone I spoke with, and Bill and crew did a fine job. I’d highly recommend them to others in need of a divorce from their tree (s). Thanks Bill!

Large spruce tree removal ⁸⁄₁₄. Responsive, straightforward, very fair pricing. Came to do an estimate on the weekend. Got the job done in a tricky narrow driveway with no damage to anything. Stump grinding was done a few days later while we not around, everything was perfect.

We used Bill and his company to remove a tree that had grown for years right next to our garage and had to be removed as it was beginning to damage the foundation. It was in a tricky spot, both tight against the garage with little access, in our backyard with little access to the street, and growing high above the yard and leaning precariously. Bill’s expertise and professionalism was top notch and it was removed, ground down, and disposed of with no problems. Highly recommended.

Weird. I just had Bill DeMore out to the house for an estimate, and he stormed off in a flurry of angry muttering.
Bill: Vines don’t kill the tree. That’s an old wives tale.
Me: Wow, really? I’ve had 2 neighbors tell me they do.
Bill: Am I here for an estimate, or I am here to educate you about trees? I don’t have time for this sh – .
And then he stormed off muttering (and I was ready to go ahead with the work he estimated). This was after about 5 minutes, and me asking a grand total of 3 questions. I was just taken aback by the whole thing.
The estimate did seem reasonable. And they were very quick to show up for the estimate (as opposed to Barrett, who was scheduled 3 weeks out). But maybe there’s a reason they’re not as backed up with work as Barrett. Anyway, I can’t really rate DeMore on their work, but I sort of feel like a dodged a bullet on this one.

Demore Tree Service has done work for me twice. The first time a few years ago to remove two deteriorating tall trees, and again in Spring 2011 to remove a tall tree. I placed my call to them and received a callback within a couple of hours. A visit was made and an estimate given within four days and the price was reasonable. For the time scheduled, within the week, they arrived right on time. They worked straight through from 8:30a to noon, were very safe and thorough, well-​equipped, friendly and willing to give advise. I would not hesitate in the least to use their services again.

Terrible, unprofessional, unreliable, disrespectful,…
I called them up for an estimate a month ago and after a site visit and couple of phone calls and coordinations, we planned for them to come and start the work. Of course they didn’t show up on the day for which we had scheduled. The worse was when I called the owner he hung up on me for being upset about them not showing up and wasting my entire morning. I just can’t believe how rude and disrespectful a business owner can be to his customer…
Good luck Demore Tree and Landscape for your terrible and unreliable business!!!
PS: I have to give them one star because Unilocal requires me to do so in order to process my post… Demore Tree deserve NO star!!!

I called a couple of tree and landscape companies because my tiny backyard had some really overgrown Hemlock bush/​shrubs that I wanted to get rid of. I had some other mystery bush that was an eyesore as well.
Well, when I called DeMore they called me right back and came out for an estimate right away. The other landscape companies I contacted weren’t very responsive and gave me a much higher quote. I thought about going to Home Dept, renting a chipper, figuring out how to work my chainsaw, etc… then I got the quote from DeMore. Why deal with all the hassle when I could have a certified arborist do the job for around the same price or cheaper? (I didn’t actually price out HD, but it should’ve been close) Plus he identified my mystery (mock orange) bush.
The best part was I left for work in the morning and when I came home all my bush/​shrubs were gone! Only a little bit of sawdust remained. I would recommend this company to anyone that needs tree work done!
