Central Minnesota Tree Service LLC

Overall, the experience was very good. I was initially disappointed when Mr. Savre was hesitant to come to Andover. While it was because he initially thought we only had a couple stumps to grind down, we are located only 12 miles from Fridley, and that seems like a fairly short distance to me (others may have different opinions, however). In any case, when we cleared up the misunderstanding about work to be performed, he was happy to come out and provided a very reasonable estimate. The actual work was performed very well, with excellent cleanup and no damage to surrounding plants or lawn. I would not hesitate to use Central MN Tree Service again.

They were proficient, fast and clean. I couldn't recommend them highly enough.

They were very professional and did a thorough clean up job.

This is the fourth time I've had this company do work for us. They've always been very professional, and easy to work with.

THEY WERE REALLY GOOD. THEY GAVE ME A COPY OF THEIR LIABILITY INSURANCE. THE QUOTE WAS A BIT HIGH, BUT I CHOSE THEM BECAUSE ANOTHER NEIGHBOR HAD USED THEM AND THEY DO QUALITY WORK. I WAS REALLY HAPPY WITH THE WORK THEY DID. THEY DIDN'T DAMAGE ANYTHING GETTING THIS HUGE TREE REMOVED.

TERRIFIC. JIM TOOK A LOT OF TIME CHECKING WHAT I WANTED DONE AS WELL AS MAKING RECOMMENDATIONS FOR WHAT HE THOUGHT SHOULD BE DONE IN ADDITION, AND SAID SOMETHING I THOUGHT NEEDED TO BE DONE DID NOT. THEY WERE PROMPT, COURTEOUS, DID MORE THAN EXPECTED AND CLEANED UP BEAUTIFULLY. JIM AND HIS CREW WERE HERE THE FRIDAY BEFORE THE TORNADOS/HIGH WINDS HIT THE NORTH METRO, AND I'M SURE THEIR WORK SAVED US A LOT OF GRIEF.

THEY CAME OUT PROMPTLY AND PROVIDED A FREE QUOTE. SHOWED UP WHEN SCHEDULED TO COMPLETE WORK. I ALSO HAD BRANCHES IN MY YARD FROM SHRUB TRIMMING I WAS DOING AND THEY TOOK THOSE TOO AT NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE.

EXCELLENT SERVICE. FRIENDLY, HELPFUL, PROFESSIONAL. BID FOR THIS WORK WAS $800 LESS THAN RAINBOW TREE SERVICE WHO WE HAD CONTRACTED WITH EARLIER THIS SUMMER TO TREAT A DIFFERENT DISEASED ELM TREE.

JIM'S EASYGOING PERSONALITY MAKES IT A PLEASURE TO WORK WITH HIM. FAIR PRICING. HE IS PUNCTUAL & FOLLOWS THROUGH WITH MY REQUESTS. VERY FRIENDLY, EASYGOING PERSONALITY. THE CREW WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL. THEY WORKED EFFICIENTLY, WERE SAFETY CONSCIOUS, & TOOK CARE NOT TO CAUSE ANY DAMAGE. THEY DID A GOOD CLEAN-UP JOB AFTER THE TREE & TRUNK WERE REMOVED. THEY BROUGHT IN THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT TO DO THE JOB. I CHECKED ALL 30 CITY OF CRYSTAL LICENSED TREE CONTRACTORS WITH THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU & ANGIE'S LIST & CAME UP WITH A FEW TOP COMPANIES. I WOULD DEFINITELY USE CENTRAL MINNESOTA TREE SERVICE AGAIN!

VERY EASY COMPANY TO WORK WITH. RETURNED MY PHONE CALLS PROMPTLY AND CAME OUT TO LOOK AT THE TREE AND GIVE ME SOME ADVICE BEFORE DECIDING TO HAVE IT REMOVED INSTEAD OF TRIMMED. TOTALLY REMOVED STUMP AND DIDN'T LEAVE A MESS IN THE YARD OR RUIN THE GRASS. CALLED THE DAY BEFORE TO LET ME KNOW WHEN WORK WOULD BE DONE.

I CALLED CENTRAL MN TREE SERVICE ON A WEEKDAY NIGHT AND WAS PLEASANTLY SURPRISED TO HAVE MY CALL ANSWERED. THEY CAME OUT AND GAVE ME AN ESTIMATE FOR MY WORK WITHIN A FEW DAYS, AND SAID IT WOULD BE ABOUT 2 WEEKS BUT THEY ACTUALLY GOT HERE IN ABOUT A WEEK TO DO THE WORK. THE TREE (WHICH WAS LARGE) WAS CUT DOWN AND REMOVED WITH NO PROBLEM, AND CLEANUP WAS DONE GOOD. THEY TRIMMED MY MAPLE TREE ALSO, AND DID A GOOD JOB ON THAT TOO. NICE PEOPLE TO DEAL WITH, AND WOULD AND WILL USE THEM AGAIN.

VERY PLEASANT TO DEAL WITH AND REASONABLY PRICED FOR THE AMOUNT OF WORK INVOLVED. THEY DID AN ESPECIALLY GOOD JOB OF CLEANING UP THE STRAY BRANCHES, ETC., AFTERWARDS.

JIM KEPT US UP TO DATE ON WHEN THE WORK WOULD BE COMPLETED. HIS CREW WAS FRIENDLY AND TOOK THE EXTRA TIME TO CLEAN UP THE YARD. EVERYTHING LOOKED GREAT. THEY TOOK OUT A BRUSH PILE, SPRUCE TREE AND DEAD ASH LIMBS. WE ASKED IF HE COULD LEVEL A PORTION OF THE YARD SO HE BROUGHT A BOBCAT IN TO DO THAT FOR US. I DEFINITELY WOULD HIRE THEM AGAIN FOR FUTURE TREE WORK.

VERY BUSINESS-LIKE AND FRIENDLY. NOT THE LOWEST-PRICED OF THE BIDS, BUT NOT EXORBITANT EITHER. VERY PROMPT. WHEN A NEIGHBOR WANTED A BID ON TRIMMING SOME EVERGREENS, JIM GAVE HIM A BID, BUT RECOMMENDED AGAINST SPENDING THE MONEY SINCE THE BRANCHES WERE NOT CAUSING PROBLEMS WITH THE ELECTRIC LINES. AN HONEST BUSINESS MAN.

VERY PROFESSIONAL. VERY KNOWLEGEABLE REGARDING TREES, DISEASES, ETC. CAME TO THE HOME TO DO THE ESTIMATE WHEN THEY STATED THEY WOULD COME. COMPLETED WORK IN A TIMELY MANNER. WORK VERY WELL DONE AND VERY CLEAN. WOULD ABSOLUTELY HIRE AGAIN.

I AM UPSET THAT I NEVER RECEIVED A RETURN PHONE CALL AND THAT WHEN I CALLED I WAS TOLD THEY COULDN'T HELP ME SINCE A STORM WENT THROUGH THAT AFTERNOON, EVEN THOUGH I HAD CALLED RIGHT AWAY IN THE MORNING.

WE RECEIVED THREE BIDS FOR THE WORK. ONE OF THE OTHER COMPANIES OFFERED A DISCOUNT TO ANGIE'S LIST MEMBERS, BUT CENTRAL MN TREE SERVICE WAS STILL COMPETITIVELY PRICED AGAINST THAT OTHER COMPANY'S DISCOUNT. MORE IMPORTANTLY, THE ESTIMATOR FOR CENTRAL MN TREE SERVICE WAS A LOT MORE KNOWLEDGEABLE THAN THE REPS FROM OTHER COMPANIES WE TALKED TO. HE IMPRESSED ENOUGH TO PAY THE COUPLE EXTRA DOLLARS HE WAS CHARGING. HIS CREW WAS PROMPT AND SPEEDY. THEY LEFT OUR PROPERTY IN GOOD SHAPE.

JIM, THE OWNER, WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL AND KNOWLEDGEABLE. HE SHOWED UP ON TIME, SUBMITTED AN ESTIMATE WITHIN 10 MINUTES AND ADVISED US ON SEVERAL COURSES OF ACTION. HE AND HIS ASSISTANT DID A VERY GOOD JOB, AND CLEANED UP ALL DEBRIS.

ESTIMATE WAS 1/3 OF WHAT A COMPETITOR WANTED. THEY DID THE WORK LESS THAN A WEEK AFTER THE ESTIMATE, AND I WAS VERY PLEASED WITH THE JOB THAT THEY DID.

I PICKED THIS SERVICE OVER ANOTHER BECAUSE JIM ADVISED ME NOT TO TRIM AN ELM THIS SEASON. THIS SHOULD ONLY BE DONE IN WINTER. THE OTHER FIRM PLANNED TO TRIM SOME ELM BRANCHES AND SEAL THE WOUNDS, WHICH COULD STILL MAKE IT VULNERABLE TO DUTCH ELM DISEASE. JIM SEEMED KNOWLEDGEABLE AND DID QUALITY WORK AT A FAIR PRICE. HOWEVER, THEY DID LEAVE SOME TIRE INDENTS ON THE LAWN FROM THEIR TRUCK, DESPITE SAYING THEY'D BE CAREFUL AND DRIVE ON BOARDS.

JIM WAS VERY PROMPT UPON ARRIVING FOR THE ESTIMATE. WHEN WE HIRED HIM, I ASKED IF HE COULD LEAVE SOME OF THE WOOD FOR FIREWOOD. HE SAID THAT WOULD BE NO PROBLEM; HOWEVER, HE DID NOT LEAVE ANY ONCE THE JOB WAS COMPLETED. THEY DID SEEM TO DO A GOOD JOB TRIMMING THE TREES AND CLEANING UP THE AREA UPON COMPLETION.

JAMES WAS EXTRAORDINARILY PATIENT AND COURTEOUS WITH US THROUGH A PROCESS THAT INVOLVED OUR EVENTUALLY FINDING OUT THAT A TREE HE WAS GOING TO REMOVE WAS ACTUALLY ON THE CITY'S RIGHT OF WAY. HE ALWAYS RETURNED CALLS PROMPTLY, AND WAS WILLING TO DISCUSS OPTIONS WITH US.

THEY SHOWED UP EXACTLY WHEN THEY SAID THEY WOULD BE HERE AND CAME EXTREMELY WELL EQUIPPED AND READY TO DO THE JOB. THEY WERE ALSO VERY HELPFUL AND KNOWLEDGEABLE.

RETURNED CALLS PROMPTLY, CAME OUT TO DO ESTIMATE WITHIN A COUPLE OF DAYS. WORK WAS PERFORMED WHEN PROMISED, AND DID AN EXCELLENT JOB OF CLEANUP.

THEY WERE ABLE TO REMOVE BRANCHES FROM ANOTHER TREE AND DIDN'T CHARGE ME, WHICH WAS SURPRISING AND APPRECIATED. EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE. I AM VERY PLEASED.
