We have two large, mature trees, a white birch in front and a silver maple in back, both of which were weakened as a result of last winter's ice storm. We decided to get quotes from a couple of arborists and Beechwood Tre Co's representative took the time to explain alternative treatments and what would be best for the trees, and their price was competetive so we chose to hire them. Their crew showed up on time on the scheduled date and they completed the job according to our expectations. They worked quickly and safely, and they cleaned up all the debris. The fellow with whom we had arranged the contract stopped in immediately upon completion of the work to ask if we were satisfied with the work. I told him we were satisfied and that I would have no hesitation recommending their company to others.

Product selection offered a good range, and the installation went as scheduled, efficiently and cleanly. Unfortunately the outer storm doors have not held their seal and the closure brackets are faulty. A service technician came upon our request but insisted the weather seal on the storm doors was good and only replaced one bracket. While I still think we made a good choice, the service follow-up was unsatisfactory.

Installation was approximately $1300. and yearly monitoring fee is approximately $250. They took the time to do a thorough assessment of our house and presented options to us without insisting on unnecessary expenses. The alarm was installed as planned, the worker took care to run wires in a tidy fashion and to consult with us on where best to run the wires. Holes drilled into the walls were inconspicuous and the entire process took less than a day. The monitoring service has been excellent. The system has been running for a number of years - no complaints.

Russ Allen is the owner operator of this business which has been getting progressively bigger and busier over the years - and rightfully so. We initially took a chest of drawers and a pair of chairs in for refinishing. Not only did Russ have great ideas about how to refinish the pieces, he also took the time to ensure the refinishing was as close to the original as possible. We were so impressed we took a more elaborate side table with missing pieces in for repair - he did a fabulous job. Russ took the time to shape and carve the wood so that gaps were filled and he matched the gold paint finish to match the original. This is a labour of love for Russ and it shows. He is meticulous and very busy but worth the wait.

They were helpful in identifying the correct furnace for our needs. They helped us understand the warranties. They suggested altering and improving the fuel line from the tank to the furnace which we adopted - very satisfied with this choice. The installation went according to plan and in a timely fashion. Clean-up was mediocore - we had to do a thorough cleaning once the job was done (ex. did not sweep under shelving and other harder to reach places). Very friendly, non-invasive service and the product they sold has held up well.

What could this company do to improve their services?
Yes it can be messy work but they can do a better job with their shop vac.
Any advice to offer fellow homeowners facing a similar project?
If you're from a small town or moving to a small town and need work done on your home, talk to the neighbours - they are your best source of reliable information.
