Earlier this week we suffered a great deal of tree damage from Hurricane Isaias. Huge branches fell off trees and landed in our driveway as well as on our roof. While I had never hired Felix Tree Service before, I was very impressed when he came to give me an estimate of possible tree trimming in the Spring and felt that I should wait until the late fall since we had beautiful tulips and flowering bushes that would probably be destroyed by the branches that would be falling on our yard. I couldn’t believe that someone would say that! How many tree guys do you know who would say call me when your flowers stop blooming?
While the hurricane was still active, I called Felix and asked if he might be able to come over the following day. I reminded him of his visit to our home a few months before. Felix was very kind but he told me that many of his long time customers had already called him to report their damages but he’d make every effort to drop by.
The following morning while I was working remotely, I noticed a man removing the huge branches that had been blocking our driveway. There were no trucks, just a car parked across the street. I went outside and it was Felix, working alone. He explained that his tree crews were all busy on much bigger jobs but he had promised to “ try to drop by” and he was keeping his word.. I asked if he could remove the branches on our roof. Felix laughed and said he had only brought his chain saw and didn’t have a ladder. Fortunately, we had one and he climbed up on the roof and began throwing more huge branches off and onto the ground. Then he yelled to me, “ call your insurance guy”! He pulled a huge branch out of the roof that had cut a hole through our shingles and the plywood. He photographed the damages and then went to his car to get a tarp. He apologized that while he had to get to another job, I needed to get someone to cover the hole to protect our interior from potential rain damage. He told me that his crew would return the following day to remove all the branches that he had carefully placed on our lawn. I could write another page on the amazing job his guys did when they returned ! If you ever need tree work and want an ethical guy who has a great team of dedicated workers, call Felix’s Tree Service!
I am sure we will need additional pruning as a result of the damages caused to the trees as a result of this storm. I told Felix that once he has some free time, I’d like him to once again look over our property. I feel confident that we are in the hands of a very rare and dedicated professional.
