Ed Cook Tree Service

"Coming home as usual and noted a tree work in progress sign around Marjorie and O'Malley, sign was not a detour or road closed sign just working progress. Around the bend a crew just laid a tree down. This wasn't fully blocking the road but a Bobcat they were using was. They could easily have moved the Bobcat to allow traffic to clear but instead stood around walking back-and-forth with stoic looks on their faces, Glancing up to see if the now 3 cars lined up were turning around or gone.. No one had the stones to come up and tell us that we would have to turn around, how long they would be or maybe even an alternate route. We finally did turn around. I understand hard work and doing it safely, this is not in question. What is in question it the integrity and obvious attitudes this crew working have. No one likes to be ignored. Particularly by people with an obvious chip, no pun intended, on their shoulder. Won't be using this tree service ever for this reason alone."

"Ed and his crew are the best and most experienced loggerheads! Huge crane, trucks, and equipment to get the job done correctly and safely!"

"My husband and I have lived in So. Lake Tahoe for over 40 years. We have lived in many locations in South Lake Tahoe and have experienced a tree removal by Ed Cook’s Tree Service several times in our neighborhood. Every time his tree removal has impressed us. Though we have never personally used his service, we are amazed by the way his crew works so hard! It’s fascinating watching his crew remove a tree! It’s like the “Greatest Show on Earth!” Expedient and so well organized! I commend them for always doing a great job and leaving everything clean and tidy! I only wish they could also do all the road work around town!!!"

"Having Ed Cook and his crew remove our trees was a lovely experience. Every person in the crew was incredibly friendly, happy and nice. It was super fun watching the tree removal, and, they left things very tidy. They cut more than 50 trees in one day! I wish we had more trees to cut so I could call Ed Cook again."

"Ed and Susan Cook have been so helpful during this Tier 4 storm. I have never missed work due to snow. This year I did. The snow was so heavy that I could not shovel it. My snow blower was unable to throw it. Thank you Susan, for your pleasant phone communications. Thank you Ed for all you have done for me and for all you do for this community. Thank you crew for your prompt and professional service. Sincerely, Zoe H."
