Hodge's Tree Service

After 30 years, I decided that I could live without the two gum trees that decorated my yard, providing blessed shade but also cursed gumballs. To instigate this project I contacted River To River Trees and within minutes the owner and operator, Josiah Evans, was on the phone with me and less than an hour later, he was here to look the project over and provide an estimate. I am very happy with his work. For one thing, there would be no mileage charges since he lives just minutes away in Reevesville! He started the job on Wednesday, 4/10, and finished the cleanup on Thursday. I am very pleased with Josiah's work and will hire him again if the need occurs. Now l can look forward to mowing season with NO MORE GUMBALLS! The trees in the background are maple, and home across the road is that of Garrett Davis , whose birthday is today!!

Davis Tree Service did an amazing job cutting down our tree and grinding the stump and removing the tree. They were fast and efficient. Highly Recommended. Thank you

Double B job was excellent. Men were courteous and friendly. We are very pleased with trimming. Micah did a great job climbing and cleanup by Brennan well done.

I am a widowed senior; female with disability. I hired Dustin Kielhorn (owner) (DK), Kielhorn’s Tree Service, and was charged by same to widen and add 45 tons of gravel to my driveway; also, to first lay down top-of-the-line landscape fabric and remove old existing timbers lining my drive. Following, I was shortchanged 15 tons of gravel until speaking up, my driveway looks like a weed fest, and the old existing timbers remain to date (all verifiable). Around the same time, DK agreed to trim trees and clear property lines before installing wire fence desperately needed for my six dogs. I was presented a verbal quote (DK insists to provide customers an oral agreement only; not a written contract) totaling $1,500.00 for the tree service, to be done in two weeks, and completed in one day; to which I agreed. I patiently waited nine months for the tree service, at which time one day turned into two; the cause being that only one man was assigned to nearly all the high and heavy bucket work while driven to exhaustion, DK spending much of his time on the phone and socializing with drop-in buddies; then, DK upcharged my bill $1,000.00, now totaling $2,500.00, with some overhanging limbs remaining, to be done at time of fence install; this fence desperately needed and repeatedly made known to DK, my dogs suffering much in 99-degree in-house temperatures. Although I remained patient, friendly and complimentary; it didn’t take long, after paying him the $1,000.00 upcharge, for me to realize DK had no intention to return and install the fence or complete the other tasks DK gave verbal commitment to do. In time I hired someone else to install the fence. Then, on September 7, 2023, I telephoned DK to complete the remaining tree trimming. Noticeably irate, DK made clear he had no intention to complete the tree trimming while same-time badmouthing the install of the same fence he committed to do, then failed to do; however, DK stated he would pay me back the $1,000.00 upcharge (all verifiable by same-day texts). I accepted his proposal to return to me the $1,000.00 upcharge. To date DK has not. I have reported this to both the Better Business Bureau and the Illinois Attorney General. To date DK has presented no response.
