we a cut above tree service were hired by steve h to remove material, debris, brush, branches, logs from a tree job another tree company did. the other tree company cut down two large willow trees in a wet marshy area and left all the material. all material was left including two 5feet x 8 feet tree stump bases still in the ground. we removed all material except for two 5feet x 8 feet stump bases. we explained to the homeowner we were unable to remove the two 5feet x 8 feet stump bases in the wet marshy area as it was too wet and our bobcat would get stuck. we explained to the homeowner that if the wet marshy area were to dry up we would come back and remove the stump bases. we did not charge the homeowner for that portion of the job. we checked back 4 times and every time the marshy area was to wet for our bobcat to go into. we explained to the homeowner once again we could not go into wet marshy area with our bobcat that the weight of the bobcat and the weight of the stumps would get our equipment stuck. during the removal of the debris, brush, branches, logs the bobcat got stuck twice and had to be towed out by f350 super duty truck and that was on the perimeter of wet marshy area. the homeowner was upset and asked us if he were to get the stumps out of the wet marshy area if we would come back and remove the stump bases and we told him we would have no problem and would gladly do that read more

July 12, 2024 Mike (owner) of A CUT ABOVE Tree Service and his crew arrived this morning right on time. We had a front row seat, to a fascinating and dangerous process, with Mike and his crew working like a well-oiled machine They removed 4 trees; started at 7:30 am and gone at 12:30 pm, with the yard and cal-de-sac completely cleaned. They even picked up all the black walnuts that had fallen from the black walnut tree that Mike shaped. (We hate the black walnuts.) We were absolutely thrilled with the care they took to protect the ground where the equipment went and protected the house from scratches. Mike dropped a huge Maple in the back yard, perfectly placed, missing the other trees, the fence, the deck. This was a job-well-done if we ever saw one. On a scale of 1 to 5, we would give a 10. If you are in need of a tree-service, this should be your only call. No one better than Mike and his crew. Dan and Pam Sundsmo White Bear Lake, MN read more

Cut Above just ground out 16 stumps on our hobby farm over the weekend. Very professional and very reasonably priced. Mike and Anna responded in a very timely manner to my request for a bid and worked diligently to get our project on the schedule. Anna handled all of the details and challenges that arose with the "call before you dig" services. Communication overall was prompt, clear and efficient. We used Cut Above a few years ago to remove several trees that were well beyond my abilities. The experience back then was much the same as this weekend. That's why we went back to them for this project why we'll got right back to them for any future needs. Appreciate Mike, Anna and their crew! read more

Mike and his crew do tree removal and pruning every couple of years for us and they always to a fabulous job. My yard is not wrecked from the equipment (some ruts that always go away within months, to be expected) and they always clean up my yard better than when they arrived. They were very careful to not have a very large oak tree next to my very high wood fence, not damaged it at all. Anna and Mike are always a pleasure to work with from the estimate to the job completion. They are already set to come back next spring and do more work. (we have a lot of trees). read more

We were extremely happy with A Cut Above Tree Service. They were prompt and efficient. They worked with our existing fence so we didn't have to dig out our fence post. They impressively got the tree to fall between two fence posts without a scratch! The clean up was pristine. They also let us know a few ways to save money on the job. We received a discount to hire them for our stump grinding. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable tree service company. read more

What a team! We had 2 dead ash trees in our front yard and they made taking them down look EASY (it's not, we considered it and hired professionals instead). Excellent communication, very professional team and great clean up. Taking down and cleaning up the debris from 2 trees took them hardly an hour! Will definitely be using them again when we need any future tree services. Thanks Mike & the team! read more

Mike and his team did a great job. They came out a few times at our request to make sure we had the details of the job worked out. Communication was good. We had three large trees (two maples and a ash) removed from our suburban back yard. They got it all done in one day and cleaned up. Mike is great to work with and very personable. Well worth the money. read more

Mike and his team from A Cut Above did a great job taking down our 2 dead Ash trees. They were easy to communicate with, reasonably priced, very skilled, and cleaned up our yard well after they were done. They even moved a tree sapling for us so it wouldn't get trampled in the process. I would definitely recommend them to my friends. read more

They were very concerned about lawn damage with all the rain we had, they did their best to keep it at a minimum even though I hurried them to do the job. Had three trees fully come down and another trimmed all completed by noon. Their prices were also better than another quote I received. Couldn't be happier. read more
