Description of Work: Excellent service. Spoke to Cozette on multiple occasions - to schedule the quote, to schedule the work, and to pay the invoice. Always friendly, courteous, and professional. Tom took it upon himself to drive by and quote the job - I thought he was calling to schedule the quote, but he already had it in hand. When we got home, the tree was gone and no trace that they had been there. I highly recommend this company.

First an arborist came out to give me an estimate 2 days after my call ( it was a very busy time of the year). one week later a crew came out to do the job. The foreman was amazing! I've never seen anyone work so hard and smile the entire time like he loved his work.If I could remember his name I'd say it. He deserves the credit. It took just under 4 hours and though it was the middle of May it was 95 degrees and a brutally sunny afternoon. They brought a huge stump grinder that chewed up the stumps to what seemed like a couple of feet below the ground. They removed all exposed roots and smoothed out the dirt like the trees never existed. For those of you who may not know California peppers get huge fast, the branches spring right back after you trim them and even worse you may have an allergic reaction to them. The sap contains the same oil that is in poison ivy, sumac and poison oak. So they must all be related. This, along with the fact that the trees were getting too huge for the space made me decide to remove them. The arborist told me they do not recommend planting California Peppers nor Brazllian Peppers. I wish I had consulted an arborist before planting. A regular lawn handy man planted them, not an arborist. He had no opinion, just wanted the job. Lesson learned. I would definitely use Tip Top again. This is the only arborist I have used. There may be other good ones in my area but I was very happy with Tip Top. Thought price was very reasonable too. Really hard work. Could never have done it myself.
Description of Work: REMOVED TWO 13" IN DIAMETER CALIFORNIA PEPPER TREE STUMPS AND ROOTS.

I spoke with Tom who was great. He explained everything they would do and I felt the charge was reasonable. The tree was a good 10' taller than my 2 story house and was situated very close to the roof of both my house and my next door neighbors house. They showed up right on time (8am), removed the tree and hauled away all the debris. I would never have known there was a tree there at all. I highly recommend this company.

The two Mulberry trees and One of the Mimosa trees are twenty-two year old trees that provide much needed shade to my home in the summer. The other five Mimosa trees are approximately ten year old trees. Mimosa trees are my favorite because they are beautiful in the spring and summer. I wanted qualified tree trimmers and I found Tip Top Arborists on Angies list. I read the reviews by other customers and made my decision to try Tip Top. I am very pleased with the work, the crew was right on time, the lead crew member listened to my concerns regarding the trimming of the trees, great clean up. I will use Tip Top Arborists again this coming summer.
Description of Work: Removal of five tree stumps from front yard, crown cleaning and thining of two mulberry trees and six mimosa trees.

Tip Top came out and walked the property with me. Went over what needed to be done and why. Extremely fair pricing. They came out as scheduled and did a great job. The trees look great.. Will be having them come again to do more work on other trees on our property.

I have been using them every year for the past fifteen years. I would usually get them here before spring so that I would not direct the few trees that blossom. They would not go out of the yellow valley where they are about 500,000 people and hence, I have not been able to get them to my house in the West Hills. They were highly recommended by the city of Lancaster where I lived as they worked for the city. They were very professional and that was all that they did. They were great. Everything has been good. I would absolutely continue to use their services in the future.

Painless. Tip Top has the best equipment and people. They came in on time and finished within hours. They cleaned up the site and did not drag the procedure out. We were pleased that they were considerate enough to finish quickly. Our access to the business was kept open and noise was held to a minimum because they work fast.
Description of Work: We have a nursery with a massive pine tree located up front as the focal point of the property. Tip Top Arborists came in and diagnosed a die-back problem as well as pruning for health and esthetics. We have referred them to our own landscape clients over the years for a variety of tree services and they always deliver. Knowing the value of a tree in the landscape, we are careful to select professionals who will not ruin the structure or character of a tree, rather they "reveal" these things. I would and do highly reccomend this company.

They were extremely fast at taking the trees out, and they left the area clean. Everything was absolutely fine with them. They stuck to their estimate and gave us no problems. I liked the fact that they are certified arborists.
Description of Work: We had two 30 year old pine trees taken out because they were too tall and started to grow onto the roof. They cut down the tree, ground the stumps and chopped the tree so we could use it as firewood. The work took 3 hours.

I am impressed with Tip Top Arborists, Inc. and I would have hired the company if I had been located in their service area. However, Tip Top Arborists normally service Santa Clarita Valley, Antelope Valley, and Victor Valley. Jim Lewandowski, President, quickly responded to my E-mail. The price quoted to me was reasonable. The company has two California Contractors Licenses which are current and active [821770 and 399287] and the Better Business Bureau has rated the company AAA. Tip Top Arborists, Inc. offer the two services which I need: the ability to write the necessary report and the ability to give preventative maintenance on my damaged trees.
Description of Work: I am searching for a Certified Arborist to write a report which will enable me to obtain a court order to prevent my neighbor from doing further damage to my hedge trees. I did not hire Tip Top Arborists because I am located out of their service area.

WE HAD TO MAKE THE APPOINTMENT THREE WEEKS IN ADVANCE BECAUSE HE WAS SO BOOKED UP. HE IS VERY, VERY BUSY AND DOES A FANTASTIC JOB OR ELSE HE WOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DO IT MUCH MORE QUICKLY. WHEN I CAME HOME THAT DAY, I SAW DAYLIGHT IN AREAS WHERE THERE HASN'T EVER BEEN DAYLIGHT IN MY COURTYARD. IT DID NOT RUIN THE LOOK OF THE TREE AT ALL. THEY DID EXACTLY WHAT WE REQUESTED OF THEM. THEY EARNED THEIR MONEY.
