Real Reviews From Susquehanna County Homeowners
Five-star reputation built one safe tree removal & pruning job at a time.
"Extremely responsive. Answered my emergency call on a Friday afternoon at 5pm and came out within the hour and secured a very dangerous huge maple tree that fell on my home, and returned at 6am Saturday morning with a great crew with awesome equipment and took the dangerous tree down."
"Joe removed our very old, large locust tree. Lucky for us we had it done when we did. Upon cutting we found it was rotten in the middle. Joe and his crew were professional and very pleasant. A pleasure to work with. Yes, we could definitely use them again and recommend."
"Joe explains everything and gives expert advice. We had many serious problems with dying and dead trees that we didn't know how to deal with. Then, Joe and crew to the rescue. They are amazing. Hire these guys!"

The Only Grapple Saw Crane in Susquehanna County.
Most tree removal companies still take trees down piece by piece with climbers and rope. That works, but it is slower, riskier, and harder on your property.
Top Notch Tree Care operates a robotic grapple saw crane, the only one in the county. The crane grips a limb, cuts it, and lifts it clear in one controlled motion. No climber in the tree. No sections dropping onto your lawn. No ruts across your yard.
FASTER REMOVALS
Jobs that take a full day with traditional methods are often completed in hours.
SAFER FOR YOUR PROPERTY
Limbs are lifted clear rather than dropped, protecting roofs, fences, and landscaping.
MINIMAL GROUND IMPACT
Less equipment on your lawn means fewer ruts and less restoration afterward.
BUILT FOR TIGHT SPACES
Ideal for confined yards, steep terrain, and removals close to structures.
