 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Richard gave us a very reasonable quote to remove two large trees right next to our house. We had just bought the place and after the winter storms they made me a little uneasy being that close. Communication was great the whole time, he got them down quickly, trimmed up a few other overgrown trees, and the crew did a great job without tearing up our yard. Highly recommend for any tree work!

Thanks Rich and your crew!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Richard's crew did a fantastic job removing 100' dead ash trees from tough areas in my back yard that had the potential to damage my house, my shed, my fence, a neighbors house, and a neighbors pool house. His spider lift and experienced operator were able to safely remove everything without any damage. I would hire Richard again in a heartbeat.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Richard assessed a large fallen tree on Thursday, and came the VERY next day to remove it.  His crew was amazing, and worked in adverse, miserable weather conditions.  If you need tree work done, Zalewski Tree Service is the way to go!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. These guys are great!
They took down 2 large maple trees and had the entire thing cleaned up before I even got home from work!

Not a drop of debris left on property, either.
I will definitely be recommending them!
