Following wicked storms, Eric's team did a great job in clearing my fallen pine and several other damaged trees, as well as grinding several stumps. Professional, efficient, great job all around. Number one on my list of tree guys from now on.

Eric came out as soon as I called A Cut Above Tree Service. He cut down some some big branches that were hanging above our garage and trimmed up the trees above the roof of our house. He was very professional and was fast with his service. I will highly recommend A Cut Above tree service to anyone. He went above and beyond to make sure that we had no more issues with our trees falling on our house and Garage. Thank You Eric for coming to the rescue. You definitely made us (customers) very happy ?.

They did a fantastic job. Worked constantly to get the job done even while raining. Left no marks in the yard. Cleaned up very well. Fair price as well. If you hire them for your tree service you will not be disappointed

They used the back of our property to remove a tree from neighbors yard. Told they could use property if none of our trees were damaged. They took out 6 large trees and additional branches of trees to clear a path to the neighbors property. This destroyed our back tree cover and we can now see into our neighbors windows. I have been trying to reach the owner for 3 months to get the damage fixed and have received no contact following my calls, email or better business bureau contact. They also drove their truck through our burn ring. Strongly recommend against using this company.

"I think you might want to communicate with your neighbor. When assessing the removal it was known that there would be some collateral damage and assured it was there property that was affected."

It's unbelievable the quality of work Eric and his team does. Eric recognized the urgency to have 3 trees taken down and one trimmed and came immediately to do the work. I had flower beds and perennial gardens right smack in the middle of all of this work and Eric and his team were so careful not to damage a thing! Not one plant or flower was touched. Honestly, these guys are miracle workers and the cleanup was absolute perfection. Five lousy stars are not enough for this team, they deserve 10!

We had the owner Eric come out to our house to give us a quote on 4/20 to cut down a tree and grind stump, grind down 4 other tree stumps in the yard, remove some brush on the side of the house and to mow our grass once a week. He gave us a quote and decided to use this company. His team came out on 5/10 at 4:30pm to take care of the tree stumps and cut down a small tree. They left wood pieces in the lawn and sawdust everywhere from the grinding. In the time from the quote on 4/20 to now 5/18 no one from the company has come out to cut our grass. My grass got so high and unsightly that I had to hire a 17yr old with his dads riding mower to cut my grass. My husband has called the office 5 times now and left two voicemails to no avail. We had to hire a totally different company to take care of our grass. On a side note, the tree team that they send out does not do the job properly. There is a female on the team who had tattoos all over and wears her paints low so you can see her ***!! Have some respect for yourself and pull your pants up, you are a lady for crying out loud!!! I wish I could upload pictures to show what they did to my yard. We have cut tree logs just laying in the yard. The stump grinding has left a mess everywhere!!! They obviously don’t hold up to the jobs!! We made a huge mistake hiring them!! Do yourself a favor and look at other tree companies!
Response from A Cut Above Tree Service
"I believe that we have a lack of communication between you and the office. We came out and removed the stumps and brush piles and took out the tree for you. While trying to get the material out of the yard we needed to bring in a machine for the removal of the larger wood and the yard was to wet and soft. My team talked to you and that we would be back to pickup balance of wood when yard dried up some. Since that time we talked with your husband and discussed the concerns on why we were not done yet with the weather conditions and the yard condition. I will contact you or your husband on Monday to go over how you would like to finish up with the yard issue. Thank you."

Initially, they did a good job. We paid them for the work and they were supposed to come back to grind the stumps. They left the lesser quality wood and took the good stuff. We have called them twice to have them come back out to finish the job and remove the rest of the wood and we are not getting a response at this point.

"Thank you for the work and sorry about confusion in the end."

Very good small business. They took down a tree (and ground its stump) and trimmed another. Eric the owner was on site to help and supervise his staff. One of his workers injured himself along the way but Eric handled the situation promptly and without any fuss. I would use them again.

The workers were prompt, efficient, and very professional. It was amazing watching the progress which took about 1.5 days. They cleaned up everything and even stacked the wood from the trees that I wanted to keep. There was no yard cleanup I had to do when they were done except rake the pine needles up from a now missing tree and plant grass seed. We're really happy.
Response from A Cut Above Tree Service
"[Member Name Removed] it was a pleasure working with you to clean up the trees and yard. Thank you. Eric"
