DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY AND SPECIFICALLY DOUG SHORTT UNLESS YOU WANT TO BE RIPPED OFF! I hired Doug Short to do top a tree for me in North Vancouver in January 2022. We agreed on a price and I told him to go ahead and top the cedar tree. He said it was a one day job although he came three times over one month with continuous excuses. Only a few hours a day. On the last day he had broken our glass patio cover. Cost $500 + to repair. He asked for payment for the job and he said he would come back the next morning to finish. I should not have paid him but I trust him. That was the last time I saw him. HE IS A LIAR AND YOU CANNOT TRUST HIM. I have at least 10 text messages where he promises to come and finish but never does. If you google reviews this is his pattern. DO NOT HIRE HIM UNLESS YOU WANT TO RUN INTO THE SAME PROBLEM. HE CANNOT BE TRUSTED.

Check out Google Reviews many of the same experience. I will be filing a civil action against D & S Tree Service.
