Yardstick Tree & Site Preservation, Inc says it has been in business for 38 years and offers free estimates. A 2012 customer said the company removed two fifty-foot spruce trees and trimmed walnut trees, and described Mr. Montgomery as the licensed arborist for Yardstick. Another 2012 customer said the owner came out the day after Christmas with a written estimate, and that a tree over the house, one close to the house and one over power lines were removed with no damage to the house or power lines. A 2011 customer said the lead crew member climbed the tree because of the tight fit in the yard and brought it down in pieces. A 2012 customer said they ground two tree stumps and pulled out some bushes. A 2014 customer said a tree removal left half of the front yard damaged and pulled the cable line and power line out of the outside wall of the house. A 2012 customer paid $670 for pruning and said a large limb broke off about three months later, with no follow-up after three calls to the company. A 2014 customer said the company set dates for the work, then did not do it and did not call. A 2026 reviewer who said they had worked for Bob Montgomery alleged unpaid wages and checks that were no good.
BEWARE STAY AWAY FROM DOING BUSINESS WITH THESE THIEVES. IF I could give 0 stars I would I've worked for Bob Montgomery for many years and in that time he has ripped off his customers with taking pay and not completing jobs and selling pine as hardwood which is hazardous inside your homes!He's been stealing from his employees including me he owes me over 2000$ and has given me 4 fraudulent checks one after another. Getting further and further behind in pay and caused my bank to be closed on me and a 725$ bill to fall into collections because his checks are no good. This man is a thief he will rip you off and half ass the job do half of it take your deposit and leave and not answer the phone. you'll get unseasoned pine for firewood. BEWARE OF THIS COMPANY I HAVE TO TAKE BOB MONTGOMERY TO COURT FOR UNPAID WAGES, TAX EVASION AND CRIMINAL FRAUD! he's lost all his employees due to not paying their wages and they too should join me in this lawsuit
