"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."
"Very impressed with the safety protocols. The crew set up cones, used rope rigging on every cut, and never moved the chipper without checking the area. You can tell these arborists take their work seriously. Great results, and our property was perfectly safe the whole time."
