Exceptional Tree Services in the Twin Cities

"We are a Homeowner’s Association (HOA) located in the City of St. Paul positioned across the street from a park with many TREES in the area. A1 came in and did their thing which was to cut, beautify and groom our trees which they did with precise perfection. Our property looks superb and the staff was great to work with 👌 AWESOME JOB !!!!"

"They scheduled my tree removal only a few days after I contacted them and it was quick and great work. The staff was friendly and I was very happy with the result"

"I was very pleased to be offered a spot within a week of my call. The team did a fantastic job of removing a very large tree with no damage to my yard (just a few minor divots). The lawn was beautiful. The tree debris was removed the same day and again the crew was raking and checking my lawn for debris. I was told I would be billed after the removal as sometimes the stump removal would take an extra day. The email arrived 6 days later. I was not told it was due within 12-24 hours. I did not open it that day due to work hours and an evening event. The next morning I had a voice mail from the office team demanding to know when I was going to pay my bill (less than 24 hours after receiving the email). I checked the email that night and found that the bill was supposed to paid the same day as it arrived. The email was now stamped "overdue". I paid the bill that day. The perfect 10 earned by the tree team dropped to an overall 9 due to this follow up."

The tree was growing between 3 power lines. We had some delays due to XCel not coming on the day originally scheduled but A1 handled it all with professionalism. The crew was friendly, professional and fast. They did a great job from start to finish and cleaned everything up when done. I would use them again if needed a highly recommend them."

"I highly recommend A1 Tree & Stump. I had a very large 50+ feet tall white maple in my backyard that needed to come down. Not an easy location to get to and close to my home and power lines. Alex gave me a very reasonable quote that included the stump removal. The crew was out less than a week later. The crew that came out was so nice and professional. Did a great job keeping my house safe during the removal and the stump grinding (covering windows). They cleaned everything up. Now that area is ready for the next process. A1 for professionalism, A1 for cleanup, and A1 for great people to work with!!! I did check them out with BBB and Alex provided a copy of his insurance certificate without me having to ask twice."

"I had a very large silver maple that was ready to go. I received quotes from several different companies, and A1 impressed me with their speed and communication. Their price was also among the most competitive, and they completed the job (removal and stump grinding) very quickly after I accepted the quote. The crew was very professional, and the quality of work was excellent. I'd recommend them to anyone."

"The service rendered by the team was amazing. They were quick, careful and nice. I will use them again for other yard services."

"I had a great experience with A1 Tree and Stump Removal. The owner was very patient with all of my questions and took the time to explain the process so I felt comfortable with the work being done. They made sure the job was completed to my expectations and addressed any concerns right away. On top of that, the pricing was very reasonable. I really appreciated the professionalism and attention to detail, and I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable tree trimming services."

"I used the website to get a quote to trim my tree. I didn't expect to get a response for a while, but they were at my house in only a couple hours to look at my tree and create a quote. The quote was emailed and texted to me within minutes. It was totally a totally reasonable price. I actually expected it to be more. I was told that a crew could come out in a week. The appointment was surprisingly scheduled THAT AFTERNOON! The crew that showed up were really respectful and worked really fast. The debris was cleaned up within minutes of the job being done. I highly recommend A1 Tree & Stump Removal! Absolutely no complaints!"

"Great customer service and follow through with doing what we discussed. I appreciate Alex coming out personally and going over options for my tree removal that worked in my budget. I appreciated the à la carte approach to the quote given which gave me the flexibility to ge the job done. I’d recommend getting a free quote and experiencing the peace of mind for yourself!"

"Great service! Timing, cost and communication was outstanding. I would recommend hiring this contractor for your projects. They will do amazing job."

"A1 Tree And Stump Did An Awesome Job. Alex And His Crew Were Very Knowledgeable And Courteous!!!!!!"

"I highly recommend A1 Tree and Stump Removal. They recently removed a large tree and ground down the stump for us. The crew was professional, arrived on time, and was clearly very experienced. They took great care not to damage our lawn or the surrounding fence. When they were done, they cleaned up so well you couldn’t even tell they had been there. Fast, reliable, and very fair pricing!""

"Arrived on time and removed everything we needed! Price was right compared to other tree removal services. Alex was great at communicating what needed to happen, got the job done, and we are very happy with the results!"

"A1 was super professional and reasonable! They came out right away to give me a quote and even suggested that I take time to get additional quotes before I committed to anything. They were honest, fair, efficient, and went above and beyond to accommodate my schedule. They offered to work directly with the fence company to ensure that they removed only the trees and shrubs necessary for the project so that I could keep costs low. On site crew was also very professional, kind, and respectful of the property (as well as neighboring properties). They did an outstanding job and I’m using them again for another project this spring. I would highly recommend to anyone needing tree or stump removal!"

"A1 Tree team that came to remove 2 of our trees was extremely professional, on time, and efficient. Sadly since COVID you don't always get good customer service and I was extremely impressed by the quality of service we got, especially since you beat 2 other bids! Not only did they clean up after themselves, and communicate well >when my husband came home with a box in his arms they asked him if he needed any help. They went above and beyond. I would highly recommend them."

"Great staff, very courteous. Competitive quote. Tree trimming service and execution was timely and comprehensive. All debris removed, event the small stuff."

"Great service, easy online booking & online payment system and price was affordable. I highly recommend! Getting a quote was fast and easy to schedule. I filled out the request for a free quote online and received a phone call shortly after to provide a date. They came out earlier than expected which was nice. The quote came pretty quickly and I really liked how detailed the photos he took for the client profile. The crew was great got to work right away and hauled what they cut down. They educated me on the tree and making sure I didn’t stress the tree out too bad but cutting too much in one side. My goal was to cut it away from the roof so the squirrels don’t have easy access to our roof. And the second tree grew to the electrical and internet wires so it felt like a Hazard . Trimmed two trees one in the front and one on the side! Very happy with the service. See my before and after photos"

I highly recommend A1 Tree and Stump Removal to anyone needing reliable and high quality tree removal services."

"A1 Tree & Stump Removal did an outstanding job removing a MASSIVE silver maple that I needed to have taken down. The tree was right next to my house with branches overhanging my garage, powerlines on two sides, and a neighboring restaurant close by. Very technical job. Alex was super professional and came out the day after I called. I had it quoted by 6 different companies and A1 had the most reasonable quote. I called on Monday and the tree was gone by the end of the week. They ground out the stump, removed the woodchips & debris, and even helped me cut up some of the wood I wanted to keep. Thor and the rest of the climbers worked their tails off to get it done safely and efficiently. Truly incredible work. Thanks guys!"

"A1 did a great job cutting down a tree close to my house. They also cleared away brush and top seeded. Made the area look very nice"

"Professional, precise, careful & quick. Removed unwanted trees from my parents backyard with no problems in a timely manner. Quotes are free which is super awesome. I would definitely recommend A1 if you are looking for any kind of tree or stump removal."

"By far the cheapest quote. Quality work, good communication. Definitely recommend"

"Alex and his team do great work! Quick, professional response to my call, and took good care of our tree."

"Our silver maple was gigantic! The roots were taking over the whole yard, cut out the electric to the garage, housed 1000’s of squirrels that ate all the soffits around our house. Alex from A1 T&S came the day I called for a quote, and followed up a few days later. ( the other 2 companies I called, I had to ask them if they saw our tree) Alex took care of everything and his crew removed the tree and stump in a day. The price was good and the service was terrific!! As a business owner who values good customer service, I highly highly recommend A1 Tree and Stump removal."

"Alex and team removed 9 trees from our backyard and front yard. They were super fast and really good. After everything was done, they cleaned up everything. This was the best service ever. They are so skilled! Highly recommend them to anyone that needs trees cut!"

"We had some minor storm damage to a tree in our backyard, and had A1 come out and deal with that and with some tree trimming as well. The price was fair, the team was great. Couldn't have gone smoother."

"Seriously, from start to finish the process was utterly seamless!! Booked appt on a Wednesday, paid deposit on Thursday, job completed on Friday! 10/10!! Great customer experience!!"

"Professionalism at its best! These guys get in, get it done, and clean it up as if there never was a tree in existence! If you're wanting tree services done, these are your guys! Went above and beyond what I expected!"

"My neighbor and I share a large elm tree on our lot line. We received 4 bids for trimming the tree to get rid of dead branches and raise the canopy off of both of our roofs. All were companies that were licensed and insured to serve our area in South Minneapolis. All of them scheduled an estimate for the trimming and gave us bids promptly via text message. We chose A1 Tree Services because they employ an arborist and because they arranged to have Excel drop our power lines during the work and return to connect again upon completion. The workers were pleasant, listened to what we wanted done and gave a thorough explanation of what they would do. Our yards were cleared of all debris when the job was completed. We couldn't have asked for more. Job well done and I recommend A1 Tree and Stump removal."

"Fantastic work. Alex and his entire crew did an amazing job!"

"Great customer service came out next day after i emailed! Very affordable 👌 definitely recommend for all your tree removal needs!!! A1!"

"I am very happy with the services provided by A1 in removing a dying tree from my front yard at short notice prior to real estate listing pictures. Alex came by on short notice on his way home, to give me an estimate and was willing to work with my budget and timeline. The tree was taken down the next day, and the stump was gone and the area seeded by the end of the week. I highly recommend A1 and will call them again if I need tree help!"

"I would recommend A1 to anyone. They were amazing! I was actually out of town when the power company could take down the power line for the job. A1 handled everything, including talking to my neighbors when their power had to unexpectedly go down for a bit too. Polite, fast and I came home to a clean and completely finished area. My tree was a HUGE silver maple that they handled with ease. I’m so impressed with them, and my neighbors said the same thing. Definitely hire them!"
