Testimonials from those in the know:
Elizabeth in Rochester says:
I highly recommend working with Renaissance Tree Care. Eric was prompt and professional with his communication with all parties involved. He was honest about the work that was required, why it was necessary, how it was going to be done, and stuck to his estimate. Eric is easy to work with and always happy to knowledgeably answer questions. Thanks for your work!

Jeanne in N. Minneapolis says:
"Hi Eric, I just wanted to tell you that it's so wonderful to be able to have some light in my backyard! Having that buckthorn tree gone is the best thing that's happened to my landscaping back there.
The big tree also looks really lovely. It actually has a shape to it now. Jeanne"

Dan in St. Paul says:
"I can't thank Eric enough for his willingness to come out this past Saturday, even in the driving rain. Our cat, Tupelo, had been missing for several days before we finally found him trapped in the upper branches of a linden tree, some forty-five feet off the ground. This was Friday night, and the forecast called for rain. We had already called two fire stations and animal control trying to find someone who could help us retrieve our cat, but weren't able to find anyone who was willing to help. Finally, after a sleepless night, we discovered Eric. He came out, assessed the situation, and once the lightning passed, was able to ascend the tree and rescue Tupelo. I was impressed by his professionalism and his consideration, not only for our cat and our situation, but for his and others' safety, and for the tree he was anchoring to. Tupelo is back home, and after a trip to the vet, we're all catching up on the sleep we missed. Thanks so much for your help, Eric. Best regards, Ben, Tiff, Booker and Tupelo".

"Erick was very good at communicating with us and being prompt with call backs and emails. He was on time and friendly and kept to his affordable estimate within our budget for the work he did. He showed up with his co-worker Ben on bikes and trailers as we were the maiden voyage of the new service he is offering of ZERO emissions tree care! Wow that was great with no compromise on the quality of work they could do! Bravo for holding a vision of ultimate aid of the environment! Erick trimmed our gangly fruit trees, a maple and locusts and was generous with his knowledge and suggestions about tree care overall. I whole heartedly recommend him!"

Dan from Burnsville, MN says:
"Eric was very prompt and met his scheduled time. He did the work requested and then went beyond the scope of the job. He piled up brush and cleaned up the area which he did not have to do. He did an excellent job at a reasonable price."

Michelle from Apple Valley, MN says:
"I wish there was a higher rating for him. He was such a blessing to us. He helped us out with a HUGE willow tree that needed to be cut down(12 ft around) and gave us such a good deal, I feel like I owe him so much more! He was VERY professional and safe. Our kids--we have 5--thought he was"the very nice man that wanted us to be safe." Now they call talk about how the "spiderman" came and climbed up in our tree and knocked it down! They thought it was so neat! I will definitely be sending everyone I know or hear of that needs tree work done to Eric! He does EXCELLENT work and is so humble! Thanks,
The Green Family"
