"Kevin arrived promptly and performed the services we agreed on to my satisfaction. He's friendly, easy to talk to, and knows how to deal with trees since he's a licensed arborist. There was no indiscriminate or unnecessary cutting. I'd use Johnson's Tree Care again and have already recommended him to my neighbors."

"P&J does fantastic work. I am more than pleased. Joe is an arborist and has keen knowledge of trees, when and how they should be pruned and groomed or even removed. P&J removed three trees and many shrubs, pruning and shaping many other trees. Stump grinding was done to the removed trees. His crew of seven and himself showed up on time at 8am and they were done at 1130am. Amazing! They are licensed, bonded and insured."

"The job went like clockwork. Aly was prompt in coming out when contacted to provide an estimate. While the cost for cutting and hauling this very large pine was not inexpensive, it was reasonable given the size of the job and was within the parameters of other quotes I received. I was impressed with the many positive client reviews I read about Aly's Tree Trimming and the fact that the company was bonded, a certified Arborist, and licensed. Aly was able to get his crew over immediately after PG&E had finished their job of cutting near the high voltage lines. Aly has a large crew and they worked quickly and efficiently. Alex the foreman, did a wonderful job working with our difficult neighbor in handling the issues of working on the neighbors property. They cleaned up every day and when a small tree on the neighbor's property was damaged, they replaced the tree with a similar specimen. The crew were very professional and courteous. They avoided any damage to the two properties (other than the tree mentioned above). I would definitely use Aly's Tree Trimming again and would highly recommend it to other clients who are seeking the highest professionalism, and courtesy."

"I was contacted by Eli just after I put a request for prices to do the above work. He made an appointment for the next morning. After I made the decision to hire him, he started the work on the following Monday. He removed two 60 ft. trees. He and his crew were extremely organized and efficient with their time. Trees were removed along with all debris. The cleanup of the both front and backyards were great. I would highly recommend him for work and plan on having him back to prune fruit trees at the proper time."

"Oscar and his crew did an amazing job cleaning up my front and back yards, removing two problem trees which were planted too close to the house many years ago, out of control oleander bushes, an overgrown aloe patch and other assorted weeds and plants which had taken over the front and back yards. They worked quickly and efficiently, and left everything as nest as a pin. I could not ask for more and I would definitely hire them again in the future should the need arise. They even fixed a stump which was inadequately removed by a previous tree service company, and informed me of another incomplete stump removal, which I will have the other company come back and address. I would not believe what they were able to accomplish in 5 hours if I did not see it myself!"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Tree trimming can count as landscaping, depending on how a landscaping business describes its services. Professional tree trimmers are more specialized than landscapers and offer trimming services separately from general landscaping.

When general landscaping companies offer tree trimming, look up the details. They usually mean shaping or seasonal trimming of ornamental trees, which is different from trimming larger trees for health or safety reasons. When possible, look for a licensed expert that specializes in trees and tree health.

The cost of professional tree trimming averages $460, with a typical range between $200 and $760. However, prices can be as low as $75 or as high as $1,800 depending on several factors. The size and type of the tree are major cost drivers; for example, trimming Crepe Myrtle trees costs an average of $80 to $400, while trimming giant pine trees can range from $200 to $1,800. Other factors that influence the price include the time of year, as services are often more costly in the spring. The tree's accessibility and your location also play a role, as a remote or hard-to-reach tree may increase the cost. Some professionals may offer a discount if you have multiple trees to trim.

If an arborist is certified by the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA), the highest level of certification available is ISA Board Certified Master Arborist. According to the ISA, this credential is reserved for arborists “who have reached the pinnacle of their profession.” Check your arborist’s credentials before hiring to confirm their level of training and expertise.

The safest way to cut down a tree is to make sure you’re completely prepared and have done all the necessary safety checks, including double-checking your equipment is in good working order, you have plenty of clearance to fell the tree, you’re wearing all the safety gear, and you have a partner to help you (who should also be wearing safety gear). 

There are two types of arborists: certified and consulting. A certified arborist is licensed and equipped to provide tree pruning, planting, fertilizing, monitoring, transplanting, treatment, and removal services. A consulting arborist specializes in tree appraisals, diagnosing problems and recommending treatments for illnesses. However, they will not provide these services themselves. Most consulting arborists are certified arborists who can refer you to a tree service that can administer the correct treatments.
