Honest reviews from property owners who chose B. Haney and Sons Arborists for their tree care needs.
"Used B. Haney for emergency storm cleanup after a derecho came through. Three trees down, one on the garage. Their crew was on-site within hours, coordinated with our insurance adjuster, and had the property cleared in two days. The B. Haney name still means something in tree care."
"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."
"The arborist gave honest advice during the estimate — recommended we keep two trees we thought needed removal because they were actually healthy and worth saving. Saved us money and kept the trees. That kind of integrity is rare."
