⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


Carolina Elite did an excellent job at my home and my store. Very professional and knowledgeable. Every detail of both jobs were top notch. I highly recommend them for any tree service you may need. Six 75 ft plus trees removed and the stumps ground in two days. Everything was cleaned up and no mess left behind. They came highly recommended to me and I will highly recommend them to others.

Needed a tree limbed that was close to multiple obstacles. Matthew came out very quickly. He was fast a professional. Managed to get the fairly large tree down without any damage to surrounding structures and the price was fair. Would recommend.

Matthew was highly professional and skilled. He handled every aspect of the job and worked efficiently to get it done just as planned. Matthew communicated well and his price “estimate” didn’t waiver. I would highly recommend this company. We will use them for other projects in a few months.

We had a massive oak tree that needed to be taken down. It was close to power lines and directly over our driveway. We hired them to take it down.

Blake arrived on time, worked very quickly and efficiently and took it out without any issue. He is very dependable and we would definitely use him again for any of our construction and landscape needs. Thank you for an excellent job!

I scheduled a Quote with Matthew and he showed up on time the next day and cut our tree down for us immediately! We will be using Carolina Elite in the future and will definitely refer to our friends and family!
