Joseph, Rachel and their entire team were great!! After Hurricane Helene came through Columbia, we needed their help to prevent our GIANT Red Oak from falling and crushing our house! They were exceptional in every facet of their work. Extremely knowledgeable, efficient, professional, etc...I could go on and on. I truly believe they saved our house! I highly recommend Tip Top Tree Service for your needs. Thanks again Joseph and Rachel!! I hope you and your team have had a chance to get a little break!!

I could not be more pleased with the service I received from Tip Top Tree Sevice when a large hickory tree fell on our house. They responded quickly after my initial contact and removed the tree. The professionalism and efficiency with which Joseph, Rachel, and their entire team approached the task was nothing short of amazing. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone who has a need for emergency or nonemergency tree removal services.

Highly recommend Tip Top for any tree service you need. What started out as a small trimming project turned into needing to take down a large hickory tree and I couldn’t be happier with the results. They put in long hours to make sure the site was cleaned up as if nothing had even happened. The pricing was very reasonable and I am thankful for their hard work!

Like last year, Joseph and his crew did an A+ job. This time, they did extensive tree trimming. Wow! Very Nice! And like last year, the raking and overall cleanup was exceptional. You can't go wrong with Tip Top!

Joseph, Rachel and the team were great to deal with. Very competitive pricing. They came out in a timely manner and when they left they cleaned up so well you couldn’t even tell they had been there. I will definitely use them again for future tree services.

I highly recommend Tip Top Tree Service. I had a lot of large trees in very tight spots between houses. I was incredibly impressed at the care and precision. They are extremely skilled at what they do and extremely professional.

Very responsive and quick to give you an honest estimate. Extremely competitive pricing (and we got numerous quotes). They got the job done in a day, and were very careful making sure no branches or large pieces fell where they shouldn’t. Would definitely recommend for future services.

Joseph and his crew are amazing! I contacted him for a quote based on feedback I’ve seen on our neighborhood Facebook group. I was already fairly confident I wanted to use them based on their reputation, but they also were the quickest to respond AND the lowest price. They squeezed us in and came out earlier than expected to cut down two bradford pears. I had said I was trying to get them down before Saturday in order to get new trees through the bradford bounty program, so he made sure that happened. I have been wanting to get rid of those trees for a long time, but I thought it was by twice as much to do so. To be honest, it probably would’ve been twice as much if I went somewhere else. So not only was the price beyond fair, but they also did great work all around. They got both trees down and cleaned up the yard way more than I expected. I honestly expected to be left with at least some sort of mess, but no. Thank you guys so much! Another happy customer. (Don’t mind how bad the yard looks now. Now we can landscape!)

We've used Tip Top twice to take down nuisance trees on our property. Very pleasant and professional people to work with. Will use again in the future.

We had a tree leaning over our roof and power line that we feared could go at any moment. They were able to give us an assessment same day and returned the following morning to cull the tree after the power company made it safe to do so. Worked very efficiently and were very professional. Super glad we used them and wouldn’t hesitate to do so again!
