MOKI SMITH - Morgan Hill Tree Service

It all wents as planned.  Trees trimmed well and all trimmings were cleaned up and removed.

Started okay with reservation made. At the last minute, Moki called and said they needed to reschedule. Discussed the service needed compared to service offered in the BIG DEAL. Not a good match with what I needed. Will have them or someone take a look and give me an estimate.

I had a fabulous experience. He had a crew of five guys and Moki and they had all of the equipment that they needed, they are bonded, they are licensed, they have workers clump and he provides that for you. Moki is a true artist in trimming trees including his crew. The compliment that I received from my neighbor was the ultimate. She said 'Arla your trees are a work of art' and the cost was $ 1800. There have been two other neighbors and I have been working with them. So, they hired him to do some pruning of their trees 45 years old. They were very patient including the whole crew. I had kind of a vision of what I wanted and they were so patient with me and also guided me saying it will be better if we did this, so they educated me and they still did of what I had a vision. I have been looking for a year for an arborist and I was going to high end nursery, they recommended and I picked out five arborist. I called them but it didn't seem like it was a good match. Then I called another high end nursery and they gave me the name of this arborist, who works for them. I called him out this other arborist but he was not licensed, he did not have workers clump and he did not have liability insurance; he was not as knowledgeable as Moki. We really take pride in these trees.

Moki trimmed two large monterey pine trees in the front yard and brought them to life. He removed six other tress which were in different stages of dying and really brightened up the yard. He also trimmed five Japanese maples and a crepe myrtle which now look like they will grow properly in the next coming years. We are preparing the house for sale and his advice and work should pay off handsomely.
It is so important to have an arborist take care of your trees if you care at all about the health of your trees and your home value. So much of the difference between a nice neighborhood and a poor looking one can be the trees and how they were trimmed.
Moki was worth the little extra we paid. We also realize that it was a good investment because now we won't have to have the trees trimmed every year like one of our neighbors does. They hire some guy with a truck and he comes back every year and tops the trees which looks terrible for several months and then he does it again.

Moki spent lots of time describing how he was going to trim the trees and why. He was very clean. He didn't accept check or credit card so we had to go to the teller for cash. He did a good job.
