I rarely leave reviews, but the service I received from Top Notch Tree Care deserves every single star. They provided the most amazing service I could have asked for. Their team's expert knowledge—not just in removal, but in overall tree health and care—was immediately apparent and incredibly reassuring. The level of follow up and follow through was wonderful, ensuring every detail was covered. What truly set them apart was the care they showed my property. They treated my yard with respect, and the onsite crew managed the entire project seamlessly from start to finish. If you want professional, knowledgeable, and caring service, look no further.

Fast, hard workers and great communication.Posted on Tiffany TurckTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a tree fall on my house and called at about 9am to see if they could come out and take a look and help. Originally they said it wouldn't be until the afternoon. Rod called me back about 5 minutes later and said he rearranged his schedule and put me as a priority. (Not sure if it was due to the devastation in my voice) but they came out and did an amazing job. Were very kind and patient with me and his team were just as amazing. They even cleaned up and left thing better then expected, I had absolutely no extra clean up. Thank you guys so much!Posted on Kristen GeigerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had them trim 4 trees in our yard. Great to work with and did excellent work! Quick to give an estimate that was very fair. Under promised and over delivered on timing of completion and cleaned up when they were done. Nice and friendly family owned company that I will definitely use again when needed and recommend to others.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
