11 years agoThis past February I was looking for firewood. Found Delmarva Tree Service on Craigslist, $180 oak delivered. Ordered a cord, Hank delivered on 10 Feb. When he dumped the wood and I questioned the amount, Hank assured me they'd make it right if it was short. He was emphatic that they wanted repeat customers, not just one-time customers. After he left I stacked the wood in a 2DX16WX4H (128 cubic feet) spot, but it only filled 2x10.75X4 spot (86 cubic feet or 67% of a cord). I immediately sent Sherry a picture of the stacked wood with a marker of how wide it needed to be to fill the 16W and she quickly responded (six minutes later) 'I will contact hank an have you down another load to justify'. My response was 'That's fine'. I texted 'and???.' No response. 24 Mar 15 -- left another message 15 Apr 15: sent msg on their FB page: Sherry. Contacted you several times about when you can deliver the last third of the cord of firewood I paid for Feb 10th. I questioned Hank about the amount of wood and he was very emphatic during the delivery that you wanted my continued business, not just the one delivery and if there was a problem with the amount to just let you know. After stacking the wood that day, I sent a picture of the stack clearly showing a shortage of 1/3 of the cord. You texted back that you would have Hank deliver another load to finish up. Shortly after that we had a month of snow, so I didn't bother y'all. On March 16th I texted you about a call the previous week again asking about scheduling a delivery. You responded only 'yes'. I've called a few times since and gotten no answer -- left a couple of messages and had no response. My question is 'are y'all planning to complete the delivery of the full cord of wood that I paid $180 for, refund a third of the money for the missing third-cord of wood, or simply stiff me?'. She responded on FB about how much she appreciated my patience. Nothing about a delivery. 10 Apr 15; 1539; called left msg. No response. 29 Apr 15; Texted that I would appreciate her getting in touch about the delivery of the rest of the firewood. No response 1 May 15 I texted that I was going to put a review of Delmarva Tree Service on Angi's List. No response Bottom line: I paid $180 for a cord of wood but rec'd 2/3 a cord. This customer's satisfaction is obviously not very high. Their communication is mostly non-existent. In my case, getting only 2/3 of what I paid for only cost me $60. If you pay a few thousand dollars for tree service and only get 2/3 of what you pay for, how much would you be out?? I have a friend who has several trees he wants down, but there's no way I would recommend Delmarva Tree Service. In my opinion, they do NOT want long-time customers. I would not recommend Delmarva Tree Service of Smyrna, DE to a friend. -

12 years agoIncredible job! After a slightly late start due to a miscommunication, they had the tree down in 90 minutes. Branches were put into the chipper, stump was ground, and yard was cleaned up. All the employees were very professional and friendly. If you need yard or tree work done, I would recommend them highly. Work was done as promised at what was an extremely competitive rate to other tree services in the area.

FAQ
How does Delmarva Tree LLC determine pricing for tree removal and other services?
We provide custom quotes based on the specific details of your job, including tree size, location, accessibility, and the scope of work needed. We offer free estimates so you can understand costs before committing to any work. During the estimate, we assess factors like whether the tree is healthy or diseased, its proximity to structures, and what cleanup you'd like included, all of which affect the final price.
Are you licensed and insured?
Delmarva Tree LLC carries the proper insurance coverage to protect both your property and our crew in case of injury or damage during the job. Insurance is essential when working with trees and heavy equipment, and we include proof of our coverage in our contract so you have complete peace of mind.
What specific services does Delmarva Tree LLC offer beyond tree removal?
We handle tree pruning and trimming to remove overgrown branches, stump grinding to eliminate roots below ground, emergency storm cleanup for fallen or damaged trees, tree health assessments, and new tree planting. Our crew works year-round to keep your landscape clear and safe, adapting to Delaware's seasonal conditions.
How quickly can you schedule my tree work, and what's the typical timeline?
Delmarva Tree LLC works to accommodate your schedule and can often complete jobs efficiently. For example, a standard tree removal with stump grinding and cleanup can take 90 minutes or less depending on the tree's size and complexity. We'll provide a realistic timeline during your estimate and confirm scheduling details before the crew arrives.
What does Delmarva Tree LLC do with branches, logs, and other debris after the job?
We chip branches into manageable debris and grind stumps completely, leaving your yard clean and ready to use. The wood chips can often be left for mulch or removed based on your preference. Our crew cleans up the job site thoroughly so your property is left in excellent condition, with all equipment and debris removed.
Why should I hire a professional tree service instead of handling it myself?
Tree work requires specialized equipment like bucket trucks, chippers, and stump grinders that most homeowners don't own, plus trained operators to use them safely. Professional arborists understand tree biology and can identify whether a tree is salvageable or needs removal, preventing costly mistakes. Most importantly, tree work involves serious injury and property damage risks that insurance and experience help prevent.
