They went above and beyond to get all the trees cut and hauled, including ones that were not a part of the original quote, on the house. They also shredded the trees and left the wood chips where I wanted them in front of my house. Mitch was a pleasure to deal with.

Mitch and crew did a wonderful job on the tree trimming in my yard. They were quick to respond and showed up on the date set up and were on time. Thanks for the great job.

Mr. Thompson's crew was very good but he dropped by and berated one of his workers in a manner I have never witnessed before, cursing and yelling and just short of manhandling him. What a scene he caused in the middle of the street. Apparently, he does this quite often. His foreman, Mitch, and crew were wonderful. But to wait for over three months and then hear him yell this was a measly $750 job was disconcerting. It wasn't measly to me.

MITCH was extremely knowledgable, proving me great, timely and thorough service. Even though my job was small, he treated me as If I was his only client, allotting a time that was confident for both of us. MANY THANKS!!

These guys are very polite and knowledgeable. They trimmed our Brazilian Pepper tree WAY back, opening it up like never before while removing all the dead and crossing branches. Moreover, their cleanup was close to immaculate. They were higher priced than the previous company, but they did a better overall job. Thus, the money spent was well worth it. We would hire them again.
