    Quality of work was fine and job was done quickly. However, the city cleaned up 1 of the 3 downed trees before they arrived. I contacted them and had a verbal agreement that they would reduce the bill accordingly, but could not get a firm number before they started, due to short notice. After job was done, they stated that the price was the same, even though the effort decreased by nearly a third. Very disappointed with their business practices. They promised something and did not follow through.

    Very kind. Wanted to be sure I was happy prior to paying. Helped with a huge tree out front and two trees ensnared with DTE lines. Will definitely use again. Thanks Chris!

    They did an outstanding job. They showed up on time and answered all questions courteously and cleaned up all debris. Will definitely us again when the need arises.

    Had a large Maple taken down and they did so with little damage to landscape. Great customer service and worked with me on timing due to weather conditions. Had to find the right window to prevent as much damage to landscape due to a odd winter with lots of rain. Thanks Chris!

    Came out right away for the estimate. Had to wait for the work to be performed because of the weather but when conditions were good, the work was done quickly

    LaFountain removed old Blue Spruce which was overgrown and diseased. They did all work quickly and professionally. Also recommended a different variety for our new tree which is more disease resistant. Everything looks great and highly recommend LaFountain!!

    Friendly , but professional. Did the work immediately. Went above and beyond what I expected. Because of the height of the trees, I had a difficult time getting someone to do the work. They are amazing and I would recommend them to anyone.

    LaFountain Tree Specialists called me almost immediately after I contacted HomeAdvisor and arranged to see me at 10 o'clock the following day. The LaFountains (father and son) arrived right on time and we agreed on a price to have a large tree taken down. They promised to have the job done that same week and, in fact, they actually came back the same day with their crew and equipment. The job was done very professionally and they cleaned up nicely by 5 o'clock, leaving the large pieces cut to lengths suitable for my son's wood-burning furnace, as I requested (no extra charge for that). They returned several days later and ground the stump, leaving me a nice, neat pile of mulch. In short, these guys were so pleasant and professional that I have made arrangements for them to do additional work. I highly recommend them.

    Seal of Approval

    What is the screening process that Service Professionals go through in order to become members of the HomeAdvisor network?

    1. Verify Trade License
      HomeAdvisor checks to see if the business carries the appropriate state-level license.
    2. Verify Insurance
      As a part of our screening process, we encourage professionals to carry general liability insurance. We require coverage for hundreds of services.
    3. Verification of State Business Filings
      For business types that require a Secretary of State filing, we confirm that the business is in good standing in the state in which it is located.
    4. Criminal Records Search
      HomeAdvisor uses 3rd party data sources to conduct a criminal search for any relevant criminal activity associated with the owner/principal of the business.
    5. Sex Offender Search
      We confirm that the owner/principal is not listed on the official state Sex Offender web site in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located.
    6. Bankruptcy Search
      We use 3rd party data sources to check the history of the principal/owner of the business for bankruptcy filings by or against them.
    7. Legal Search for Civil Judgments
      We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for state level civil legal judgments entered against them.
    8. Liens Search
      We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for liens placed against them.
    9. Identity Verification (SSN)
      HomeAdvisor verifies the social security number(s) of the owner/principal for identity check purposes. This check applies primarily to smaller business entities.
    10. Identity Verification (Reverse Phone Lookup)
      We conduct a reverse business phone lookup to identify records matching the phone number information provided by the business.
