  • Cartwright took down three trees and trimmed six more at my house and they did a fantastic job! I got three bids and they were the lowest. I usually don’t like taking the lowest bid, but they had the most comprehensive bid, and they were the only company that followed up with me after submitting the bid. They were fast and friendly and cleaned up my entire yard — even taking limbs I had stacked from a previous storm. I definitely recommend Cartwright!

    Donna Sanford Homeowner

  • Highly recommend! They came out and took out 2 large trees in just under 3 hours! They did a wonderful job cutting them down and cleaning up! They also went above and beyond cleaning up fallen limbs that came down before they arrived!

    Manda Wilson Homeowner

  • Cartwright was professional throughout the whole process from the estimate and scheduling to the trimming. They even cut and stacked the dead branches which we requested to keep for our backyard fire pit.

    Cory Puckett Homeowner

  • So thrilled. Great customer service, great job, and right on schedule! Priceless

    Renee Humphries Homeowner

  • too am a return customer. The first time was my house, so I knew how fast crews were. On 7/24/24 it was my HOA. The HOA is roughly 65 acres and involved removing 18 to 20 trees and cleaning numerous others. 10 hours later the work was done. It was a BIG job, and Cartwright did a marvelous job. They had the equipment to handle the work, and the crew and crew leads were skill full. Thank you, Cartwright crews, for cleaning up our HOA. Everyone is very happy!

    Alex Homeowner

  • I was very impressed with Cartwright Tree Care. Brian was amazing & provided a very detailed estimate with pics included that took the stress out of everything. They were very fair on price as well. The clean up crew & cut team also worked super fast!Hilary also did a great job keeping me updated along the way. I appreciate everyone's hard work. I definitely recommend them to anyone needing tree care/work done.

    Miss Carter Homeowner

  • Used this company 4 years ago. Price and service were exceptional so I called last week to have more work done. Matt came out the next day and gave me a quote that was more than reasonable. I accepted at once and he quickly got me on the schedule. Today, (a week later) the crew arrived as scheduled. Alex and the crew did a wonderful job making sure everything was done to my satisfaction. They worked fast and efficient, cleaned up yard, driveway and street. Besides looking up at the trees, no one would have ever known they were here. Refreshing to know there are companies like Cartwright that take pride in their work, the integrity to not over charge and to provide the best customer service anyone could and should expect. Absolutely recommend this company and hope they around for many years to come!!!

    Chris Wilcox Homeowner

  • Do yourselves a favor and just call this company when you need tree work. They had great customer service. They were there on time. They worked very quickly. They cleaned up great afterward. They took care of the stump in a timely manner as well. I had a question on the hole where the stump was previously, and I called the company. Five minutes later Brian called back and said he would be out there this morning. He was looking at the site in two hours. He answered my question to my full satisfaction, and I am very satisfied with his help. Cartwright Tree Company will have all my tree business going forward.

    Lester Richardson Homeowner

  • I'm extremely happy with the job done by the Cartwright team. I have one of the biggest, oldest pin oak trees in town, with very long limbs that needed some serious trimming and lifting of weight and removal of deadwood. Tree rested on the property line of the neighbors and large branches towered over both of our houses. Cartwright's crew focused on safety and made sure to carefully rope and lower large limb pieces so as not to damage anything. The climber was clearly top notch at his job and took care to follow the contract as to which limbs, etc. Cleanup was diligent, no damage, and price was fair. Some of the other three companies had insane bids, probably due to the size and height of my oak, but Cartwright was reasonable and had come highly recommended by someone I know. I'm very happy I went with Cartwright. Thank you!

    Matt Hood Homeowner

  • Cartwright Tree Care has done work at our house and my in laws for several years. They do very good and professional work. Their crews are top notch; they have all the right equipment to get the job done. It’s a real pleasure watching them at work. Thanks to them for the years of service they’ve given to the community.

    Gary Covey Homeowner

  • Remarkable tree service! The Cartwright crew was professional and fast, (super-fast). They removed a very large silver maple with branches leaning dangerously over the house. They took good care of our driveway and yard. Even my neighbor commented on how quickly the crew worked, and how they took the tree down without damaging our yards. Also, the price for tree removal was very good. The estimate included all the necessary paperwork, including they insurance paperwork. Very professional.100% would recommend Cartwright!
