## The honest read

A customer said Martin dropped a large red oak with significant rot, close to a shed, and brought it down safely without issue. S&E Tree Service LLC holds a 5-star average across 34 Google ratings.

A customer said Martin came out promptly after a storm damaged a 100-year-old oak and a dogwood underneath it, and made quick work of the job without cutting corners on quality or safety. A customer said Martin and his crew removed several trees in the yard, taking extra care with the ones over the home and dropping them slowly and carefully. A customer described a tangled mess of five very large trees on a shed as the largest job Martin had done at their home. A customer said Martin trimmed a major leader off an oak, cleaned up and logged the wood to firewood length as requested, and was then asked back for two more trees.

A customer said Martin removed storm damage and also took down hazardous branches they had not known about before the next storm hit. A customer said Martin trimmed hedges that were overgrown and stuck out into the customer's mother's driveway, and did it quickly. A customer said Martin provides a lower price and minimum disruption and finishes with a clean worksite. A customer described the business as veteran owned.

A customer said that when Martin and his crew left, you could barely even see the sawdust on the ground.

**Strengths:**
- Careful takedowns — trees over a home were dropped slowly and carefully
- Storm cleanup — a customer said hazardous branches came down before the next storm
- A clean worksite — a customer said they barely saw sawdust afterward
- A lower price — a customer said Martin provides a lower price and minimum disruption
