They contacted me before they arrived, and were on time. When there was a question, they called me to check. When they finished trimming the tree, they did an excellent job cleaning up the yard. I was called the following day to see if I had any questions. Excellent customer service.

Tom Baal initially came to my residence and drew up a detailed description of the work I wanted done and gave me a tentative price estimate. Within five days he sent me an email with a contract detailing the work to be done and the cost. The contract covered all that we had discussed on his visit to my residence, which made me feel good in proceeding with the work. Soon thereafter I approved the contract on line and a date and time was set up to commence the work. The whole process of setting up an initial estimate and contract went efficiently. The work crews showed up on time and reviewed with

The crew arrived early to set up and were able to begin on time. They were very thorough and trimmed my California Pepper tree beautifully. Helped remedy a couple of toot issues as well. Clean up was spectacular, cleaned up yard and the area where their chipper was parked. Would definitely hire Tip Top Arborist again.

Tip Top Arborists was a great company to work With. Chris, the Certified Arborist/Estimator, came out to my home to give me a price for having trees trimmed, four of which are Chilean Pepper Trees in the front of the house. Chris answered all of my questions, gave me a verbal quote, and the next day the office called to set up an appointment for the work to be done. A few weeks later the crew of four showed up on time, and Jose was the foreman with the bucket truck. Another thing that impressed me was that Chris, the original estimator, showed up at the same time to brief Jose so that my trees

I was referred to Tip Top Arborists by a friend who used their services. They did not disappoint either. The process was quick and easy from estimation to taking my tree down. Their employees from estimator, to office staff to the tree removal crew were nice, professional and very easy to work with. I recommend them, 100%, for any service they can provide.

This is the most reliable, efficient, and professional tree service I have worked with in the last 30 years. These people truly know trees and they are the masters of their craft. I have hired them for two different properties and have never been less than very satisfied. Good counsel, great work, and ever exceptional clean-up! Thank you Tom Baal and Tip Top!

We hired Tip Top for 4 trees in our yard. One was to be taken out entirely, two oak trees needed trimmed and de-misteltoed, and the mulberry tree needed a hair cut badly. Tom Baal was so professional and friendly and it was clear he really knows his stuff. His crew were great and very fast. They took down our cottonwood tree in less than 15 minutes and there wasn't a sign it had ever been there. It was a lot of work and they finished it in half a day. They also cleaned up beautifully. Our trees look gorgeous and I feel so much better about having our daughter play safely under the trees. I would

I had a huge 50 ft. Pine tree removed today I can now sleep without worry that that monster would fall on my house. I held my breath and prayed on windy and snow days.
This company is the best. I would not hesitate to call them again. They had a crew of 4 very knowledgeable arborists . I highly recommended this company. It was not cheap but they were able to cut down this huge tree and leave the property clean. No damage. I'm a happy customer.

We had one very large tree removed and another trimmed. The trees were in a tight space with neighbors homes & yards close by. The crew arrived on time with everything necessary. They did a fantastic job. They were polite, professional, courteous, and above all very good. They did a great job of taking the tree down and making sure everything was cleaned up. The price was fair. Knowing how different tree companies can be, I did my research & got several quotes. I would highly recommend Tip Top.

Tip Top Arborists was awesome and exceeded expectations! Jim, the owner, showed up the day I called for an estimate. He emailed the estimate by the end of the business day. They were able to come out to do the work within a week. Jim showed up on the first day with his crew to review the job list and they quickly and efficiently removed four large trees and several stumps. They were on time, courteous, and cleaned up the yard immaculately. They came back a second day to finish up. They repaired sprinklers that got damaged in the process and replaced an exterior light on the patio that broke from

I've been using Tip Top for a few years now and am very pleased with their work. Chris comes out timely and gives an honest quote and communicates in a way I can understand as a layman. Izzy and his team go above and beyond and leave the job site in good clean condition. You won't be disappointed with this company, just the opposite.

These guys are the most legit arborists in the AV. All professional crew and the work is unparalleled. I got a quote to remove a huge sycamore looming over my driveway/house/street and they threw in the dead trunk that was right next to it for no extra cost! Very satisfied.

Meeting my new neighbors I was horrified to see that the roots from my Australian willow tree had undermined my neighbors driveway and side walk causing major damage. My new neighbor stated that he would cut the roots from the tree and I thought it would be best to have the tree removed. I started my search with my gardener and other non-licensed arborist. My gardener explain that he would have to rent all of the equipment and he would not be able to make any money on the project.

The price range was over $1000 to have the tree removed. I decided to give tiptop a chance and was surprised that
