These guys know trees. Our trees are gorgeous now after their trimming. Trees were very tall, overgrown, and in a difficult place to climb and work in between two houses to get the branches out. They are great on the business side of the equation too: fast, courteous and professional.

Gregg, Kyle, and crew were fantastic! Their cost was very reasonable. They were able to schedule us quickly, and did the job efficiently in a few hours. Would rehire them and have recommended them to neighbors with no hesitation.

Rent-a-monkey tree service was very easy to do business with. Very fair pricing and negotiation. They were on time and did exactly what they promised. Very knowledgeable on different trees and how to handle them. I’ll use them again.

Super happy about the whole experience with Rent A Monkey Tree Service. We needed tree removal and a hillside area cleared in a timely manner. The crew worked hard to get huge trees down with very little to no damage to surrounding trees. It was absolutely incredible. They were always polite and kept us informed of progress. There were a couple unforeseen things that couldn’t be taken out completely, it was completely understandable, but what impressed me the most was they took the time to walk through the area and explain why rather than leaving it. It spoke volumes for me. I would highly recommend this company. Very quick to respond and will work hard to get you scheduled as soon as possible. Turnaround time was great. Would definitely use this company again.

I have used Rent A Monkey several times and each time has been a very positive experience. They are knowledgeable, professional and extremely efficient! Every member of the crew has a job to do and they do it well.I scheduled my appointments with Greg and he showed up when promised and was able to give me reasonable pricing on every service I requested. Rent A Monkey has worked at my home and at several commercial properties I own or manage and I have been completely satisfied each and every time. I have used other tree services in the past but I will give all my business to Rent A Monkey from now on.

We had a large limb fall from a 60+ yr old tree and several additional limbs were left dangling after a recent storm. Gregg was informative while assessing the work - letting me know what work he recommended without pushing work that wasnt necessary right away. He was able to get his crew out same day due to a cancellation and his price was very reasonable. The guys on the crew were great - friendly and professional. I plan to use Rent a Monkey again when the need arises.

I have dealt with many tree companies over the years. Rent A Monkey provided the most competent, reliable, timely and professional service I have ever received . We were dealing with an enormous, unstable tree, with huge limbs overhanging our, and the neighbors property and power lines. Over the course of several hours they safely, incredibly, brought the tree down and completely cleaned up the stump and debris. They are not the cheapest alternative out there, but I have no doubt they are the best.

I requested an estimate for removing a 60ft tall pine tree at my home in Cottonwood Heights. Greg came out to look at the project. He gave a clear explanation of how they would remove the tree, including the option of only removing several branches, and the cost involved (which was very reasonable). I decided to wait until next spring to remove the tree but wanted to offer a review based on the quality of the visit. I would highly recommend this company and would also like to say thank you to Greg for a really positive experience.R.White

We had a total of 6 trees/shrubs removed and the stumps ground out. Their bid was great, they were prompt for the bid and the removals. The team worked hard and after all they did the yard was actually cleaner than when they arrived. I will be telling all my neighbors about the great experience we had with Rent-a-Monkey.

Excellent experience, Andrew gave us a fair and affordable quote. Greg and his crew arrived right on time and did an awesome job. First they asked to verify which trees we wanted removed then they got to work. They were quick, efficient and cleaned up the areas perfectly. The guys were polite and great to work with. I would recommend them anytime and will call them when we have tree needs in the future!

Wow! We needed a large honey locust tree removed from a backyard seated bench planter box. Adding to the job difficulty, the crew had to navigate a narrow uphill flagstone path. We were so impressed with safety measures, attention to not damaging the bench or the pathway, thorough job clean up, and their great teamwork. And Rent A Monkey crew graciously put up with us taking pictures, for the grandkids, because they had to be in school. We will certainly recommend Rent A Monkey to our family and friends!

Rent-a-Monkey are professionals that will give you competitive prices, efficient work, and excellent customer service.These guys don’t waste time… I received a quick response for an estimate and a convenient time to get on the schedule.Once at the house they immediately got to work, and it was like watching a well-oiled machine. They set-up, cut down a tree, and cleaned up in no time at all! Kyle and his crew did an outstanding job!

I contacted Rent A Monkey on 8/16 and Gregg came out on 8/17. Gregg explained the process very well and left us with zero questions about what would happen if we decided to go with Rent A Monkey. We decided to go with them and I have to say that I am extremely pleased with the service that we received. They also cut some dead branches off one of our other trees and it looks great. I dont know the names of who came to our home but please let them know that we are very grateful for the work that they did in our home.We will most likely have other trees that will need to be removed next year and we 100% plan to use to Rent A Monkey for those as well.

Last week I hired Rent a Monkey to do tree trimming on a commercial building in South Salt Lake. From my first call to their office to set up an appointment for a bid, to the finishes job, the company was amazing. Greg who does the bids and I think is an owner met and gave me advice on what was needed to make for a safe area and keep the trees growing and in good condition, then gave a very competitive bid. Within 5 days the Rent a Monkey crew arrived with top of the line trucks, chippers trailers and a professional crew that were very organized and went to it. They are one of the most professional and together companies that I have had dealings with in the Salt Lake area and would definitely use their company again and referrer their services to all my clients and friends.No Monkey Business with this group

They return your calls! They show up and on time! They will review everything with you before they start and check in with you before moving onto the next step to ensure you are satisfied with the work. They dont hesitate when you tell them its not quite right. They just get in there and do it or give you honest and professional feedback without condescension! Each crew member I had contact with was professional, respectful, and friendly. I got a followup call from them afterwards as well. This company works like they are thankful for your business.

They showed up on time and we’re very professional. They trimmed the trees exactly how I asked. When they were finished they asked me to inspect their work to be sure I was satisfied. They also cleaned up everything. I would definitely recommend Rent-A-Monkey and I will use them again.

Greg came out and gave me a price to remove two pine trees in my yard that were a huge problem. Pricing was great so we wen ahead and scheduled the service. Kyle and the crew showed up early and ready to work. Kyle fell the largest of the two trees in no time without any damage to my property or the neighbors. They cleaned up both my yard as well as my neighbors and it looks better than when they got here! Great group of extremely safe and professional guys! I would recommend Rentamonkey to anyone needing tree service!

Posted on behalf of my mother who needed to call on Rent a Monkey to look at the trees in her yard. She lives in Sugar House and was referred by me to call on these guys. Greg responded right away and and was very professional with my mom. This is what she had to say. Today, June 18, 2021, Greg from Rent a Monkey Tree Service came to my home. There are some very tall trees in my back yard that had me worried, and I wanted them taken down. I felt they presented a hazard. Greg was very polite and professional. He explained to me that the trees did not present any danger to our home and that, unless I wanted them taken down, it wasnt necessary to take down the trees. He was very honest and did not charge me for the visit. I recommend Rent a Monkey Tree Service to anyone that needs their service. Thank you for being an honest contractor and not taking advantage of my 80 year old mother. I have been in the contracting business for over 30 years and at times it is very hard to find a honest contractor. I will be sure to refer your company again.

Rent a Monkey was great to work with. They were right on time, and the price was very competitive. They quickly took down a huge tree, ground the stump immediately and cleaned everything up and hauled away the tree. We were really pleased with the company and recommend it without reservation!

Gregg, Andrew and the team have been very timely responding to all my inquires, making appointments and keeping them, even when I didnt respond quickly waiting on other estimates. They were very flexible, willing to work with my schedule. I wasnt able to be home at the time of my appointment. Gregg told me that, Id be happy to come back if you need anything else done. I surveyed the work done and found the very large and smaller limbs damaged from the September 8, 2020 catastrophic wind storm in Northern Utah and those overhanging the roof branches neatly trimmed. The driveway and roof were clean and my giant potted aloe, back driveway furniture as well as the dead sculpture artifacts gently moved aside, which had been under where they were working. Altogether, Id say a fine job was done. Thank you! The first two photos are the before shots and the second two are the after shots.

They did such an amazing job trimming our two trees that we have along our front yard parking strip. They were overgrown and cars couldn’t park In front of them but they did a great job and made them look natural and was very reasonably priced.

Thunderstorm with strong winds blew down three trees on Saturday night. I called Rent-A-Monkey Sunday morning for an estimate and Gregg gave an on-site estimate the same day. Job was completed on Monday. Other companies wouldn’t even be able to give me an estimate for a week. Clean-up was outstanding.

Awesome service. We had a very large elm tree taken down that was damaged / dying and precariously hanging over two houses. I was at home during the entire removal, Gregg and his crew were extremely professional and hardworking. The tree was on the property line in our backyard, they brought a crane out to careful remove the tree with no damages to either house.Rent A Monkey was less expensive than other quotes we received but much higher quality service. We had a few smaller trees in our yard we went with another company with and declined to have them do this large tree because they were overpriced and unprofessional. That was a great decision, Rent A Monkey was miles better.

We woke up this morning at 8am to find the owner of this horrible company in our backyard. He had jumped the gate which was paddle locked so he could cut down everything in the back yard. No notice and not even a knock on the door. He had 3 punks with him to do the job. They smart mouthed me when I tried to take a pic of them and their trucks. Totally unprofessional business

Greg and Co. finished a job next door at my parents’ house and was willing to quote a bid and do a trim job on my smoke tree while he was there. His quote was fair. He offered several options and costs which was much appreciated and he completed the trim the same day. I would highly recommend this great company!! They’re the best!!!!!!!

Review №39

We have a moderate tree that needed “ 4 branches “…..only 4 ……..to be cut back. He came out and when asked what the price would be, he said $250. That’s outrageous. Just outrageous. I’d never spend that. The minute you say Draper the price goes up…..It’s highway robbery . So, if you’re looking for a reasonable company don’t pick them.

I reached out to Rent-A-Monkey after reading the asinine 1 star review on Yelp of Carla H being offended by a name. Gregg came to my house and looked over what I was wanting done. He came with his crew a few days later and got the job done. I was impressed with the professionalism and equipment. Pricing I feel was very reasonable. They removed two large maple trees, a hornbeam and trimmed up my spruce trees. The yard was cleaned up afterward and looked as if they were never there. I highly recommend RENT-A-MONKEY. Thank you Gregg and crew. Carla H too!!

I had several relatively large trees in the little alley between my house and our fence, so we needed them gone to access the area. Kyle came out and looked at most of the trees on my property and was able to answer all my questions. I ended up scheduling the actual removal the following week. The team got here right at 8am and were very communicative through the whole process, and I was appreciative for the extra info on how long to keep my pets away from the poisoned stumps. They even poisoned a few extra ailanthus stumps that were still trying to grow back. Everything about the process was easy and fast. Ill be going back to them when Im ready to have some more nuisance trees by my garage removed.

I had a few trees in my yard that were touching the power line, so I decided to hire professionals rather than do it myself. I didnt want to drop a large branch on top of the power line. Rent-A-Monkey did almost everything wrong when I hired them: tore up the lawn with their skid-steer, left behind a ton of small branches in the lawn (two full garbage cans full), piled up the large branches on top of my blueberry bushes, and dropped a large branch on top of the power line. The branch dropped on the power line was large enough to shake the whole house. Luckily, no damage was done to the power line. The stump grinder also forgot about me for a few weeks, I had to call and remind them to do it. I should have just done the work myself.

They came in confirmed what trees I wanted removed. They were professional, respectful. My trees were in tight areas behind multiple sheds and against my vinyl fence, not one mark on my fence with the trees removed. They came and asked to talk to me about a light on one of my sheds and stated that when they were felling and branch or tree they hit the light and broke it. I stated to them, no you didn`t that light has been broken for years. He stated I see you have a quit a bit of over growth on your shed that is affecting your roof shingles and asked if he could just do that because they thought they damaged the shed light. I said sure, but you didnt break the light. He stated just let me to it for you...Which help me tremendously because I didn`t have the money to pay for that to be taken care of. They are honest, great quality of work. They left making sure I was taken care of... Awesome service, will have them back for future work. A company you would be proud to send a reference for. Rent - A -Monkey tree service, THANK YOU AGAIN !!!

Professional crew with outstanding communication and follow up! They made a couple visits to our place and gave excellent consultation on our mature tree that was very damaged in the windstorm.

Review №68

During the recent destructive windstorm in Salt Lake City, an enormous ash tree in our backyard uprooted and fell on our roof. I turned to Home Advisor and Gregg Nelson at Rent-a-Monkey responded quickly and viewed the catastrophe the next day. Because of the position of the tree on the house he felt removal by crane would be safest and within a few days he met with me and an agent of a company with heavy equipment, who put me on that company’s schedule. Within two weeks the tree was removed and hauled away. Though his company was not responsible for the removal, Gregg has been extremely helpful in seeing the project through, and made every effort to keep the removal and restoration of the yard as economical as he could. He kept in contact with the crane arrangements for final removal from the curb. After that he made arrangements with a stump grinder to pulverize the stump, roots, and uplifted turf. Gregg answered my many phone calls in a timely manner. I recommend this extraordinary business highly.
