I had never heard of Court Kelly prior to reading AC2717's posting earlier this year. As indicated earlier, I commincated with Court by email and finally engaged him to remove a stump and several trees from my property for a very reasonable price. Court not only showed up on time, cleaned up the site as promised, but he also cut and stacked wood for my future splitting for firewood.

Court recently suffered a personal tragedy and lost his too-young father to cancer. In the midst of balancing his family crises with his work commitments he actually sent an email to all of his customers explaining the reason for his lack of timely response. That level of client dedication is desparately lacking in our society today. Court is clearly an exception, and a refreshing example of a service oriented personality that is all too scarce in our current culture.

Court showed up today and met my wife for some additional work that we had previously asked him to price. My wife, Jo, was eqally impressed with this young man's sense of what is right from the standpoint of being a service oriented person.

If you are contemplating tree work, I urge you to consider Court. I can't imagine engaging anyone else for that work myself.
I took your advice and sent Court an email a few weeks back. We made arrangements to look at my job and he showed up promptly. He gave me a reasonable price and did the work when he said he would. Somehow he struck up a conversation with one of my neighbors down the road and wound up hauling all of the wood from my property (I wasn't interested in it) over there for free. My neighbor was estatic since he heats his house by wood. That neighbor now is considering him for some tree work!
