Our reputation is built on results. Here is what our customers have to say.
"I researched a lot of tree companies before picking B. Haney and Sons. The legacy of their name and the reviews from longtime customers sealed it. They removed three dying ash trees, planted two replacements, and gave me a written care plan for the new ones. Worth every dollar."
"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."
"Had a huge dead pine that needed to come down between two houses. The crew used ropes and rigged every section down by hand — no damage to either property. Stump grinder cleaned up the area beautifully. Very impressed with the skill level."
