Recent Tree Service Reviews in San Lorenzo
- Johnson's Tree Care IncWe had a huge pile of fallen redwood branches in the backyard after the storm the night of Jan 9th and 10th, including a branch so large it split our picnic table. The Johnson's Tree Care crew took only 2 hours to deal with the whole mess, trimming the stubs, removing fallen branches hung up in the trees, shortening remaining branches to keep them well short of our roof, moving the remains of the picnic table out of the way, sweeping the ratio, and even raking the driveway after the branches that had been stacked there were chipped. Very happy
- Johnson's Tree Care IncExcellent work crew. Very good clean up. Expedient. Bob Johnson is easy to deal with experience and excellent knowledge of fauna. Cost is competitive.
- Johnson's Tree Care IncJob done well, friendly and efficient, helped with the permit process, provided detailed arborist report.
- Sola de Vega LandscapingWe needed a super tall crepe myrtle tree trimmed in our yard so we contacted Saul with Sola De Vegas Landscaping. They responded to our text right away, came out, looked at the tree with us, walked through the needs to make sure we were both on the same page with how much to cut off and how the tree would grow, gave us an estimate, and scheduled with us to come back to get the work done. They also hauled all the tree branches to the dump. It was super easy, convenient, and the work they did on the tree looks great! 10/10 recommend and we’ll be using them again
- Gil Tree ServiceMy first time with Joel and team. Worked great for me! The level of communication, commitment, execution and courtesy was unexpected. The "pre-work" to meet me needs, +++. I needed a unique match to my trees, Joel went over-the -top to be sure all was correct. The team was really connected and worked efficiently together. I say that to call out that they seemed to all have their jobs and to all do them well. Very conscientious! Very happy with the extra effort! I've already let them know they will be back for my annual tree needs. ****
- Majestic Tree ServiceThese guys were great. Excellent work. Super teamwork. Estimate was very fair. Jonathan was perfect to deal with. He answered all of our questions. His crew came on time and they did an outstanding job. We would totally recommend Majestic Tree Service 100%.
- Evergreen Tree CareEvergreen Tree Care's people did a great job on my property! This was the first time I hired them and plan to engage them for a regular tree upkeep. In addition to tree trimming, pruning, and removal, they did a lot of underbrush removal. One particularly misshapen oak tree got a new lease on life by one of the ETCs arborists. Each of the two days, they arrived on time and left only after cleaning the site. I could not be more pleased with the company, the people, and their professionalism and knowledge
- The Davey Tree Expert CompanyOur HOA had a 150ft eucalyptus tree that was lifting at the base after weeks of rain 2023…. We were worried about this tree falling on our townhome’s. Jeremy and TJ jumped into action found us a crane to remove this tree within 24 hours. Davies tree service team was very professional, getting the job done in a timely manner. Yes!! We would hire them again! Thank you
- Calistro's Tree ServiceExcellent job. Fair price when others in the area were gouging homeowners with damaged trees. I am so happy I found them.
- Miabella Expert Tree Service Inc.We’re so grateful to the fabulous team at Miabella Expert Tree Service for their outstanding work in removing our 60-foot Italian Stone Pine tree last week. This was an enormous, complicated job, and the work conditions were quite difficult. The project manager, Manuel, not only gave us an extremely reasonable price, but he also provided exceptional service from start to finish. Of all the certified arborists we contacted, he was the only one who followed up on our needs and timetable. When our insurance company threatened to cancel our homeowners’ policy if we didn’t remove the tree immediately, Manuel graciously changed the work dates several times to accommodate this. His team was amazing! They drove from San Jose to San Francisco in the pouring rain and were willing to do the job between Christmas and New Year’s. Miabella got the job done impeccably in less time and with fewer men than other arborists had proposed. The quality of their work was superb! The foreman, Francisco, was excellent. Our tree was massive, with heavy limbs sprawling well beyond our small yard into three neighboring yards. We were amazed to watch the team quickly and accurately dismantle the tree, without damaging a single fence, window, or anything else. The Miabella team expertly choreographed each move with precision, skill, and speed. Perhaps the biggest challenge was getting the large, heavy pieces of tree debris to fit through a very tight easement and doorway, half the size of a normal doorframe. They were able to manage this with a resourceful “can do” attitude and great efficiency. At the end of each day, the Miabella team left the work site immaculate. We would confidently hire them again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Miabella

"Juan and his team were excellent.

Tree Service FAQ
-
How much does it cost to remove a tree?
Answer: Typically, tree removal costs between $200 and $2,000. Tree removal costs vary widely based on the number of trees being removed, the height of each tree, the diameter of each tree trunk, and accessibility to the tree. Smaller trees are usually less expensive to remove than larger ones, as are those that are more easily accessible.
-
Do you need a permit to cut down a tree?
Answer: In many areas, you don’t need a permit to cut down a tree on your own private, residential property. But some municipalities may require tree removal permits for conservation purposes or to comply with local ordinances. When you hire a tree removal pro, they’ll be able to tell you whether you need a permit for your specific tree removal project.
-
When is a good time to trim trees?
Answer: In most regions, the best time to trim your trees is during the winter months. During the active growing season (spring through fall), trimming your trees can leave them more vulnerable to disease and less likely to thrive. During the winter months, when trees are dormant, trimming them will cause less stress and leave them ready to grow again in the spring.
-
What is the average cost to cut a tree down?
Answer: Tree removal costs between $200 and $2,000 per tree. Establishing an average cost can be difficult because each tree will be assessed and priced based on factors like height, trunk diameter, and accessibility. In general, smaller trees cost less to remove than larger trees, as do trees that are more accessible.
-
How much does it cost to service a tree?
Answer: The cost to service a tree is typically between $430 and $1,320. The cost to service a tree depends on several factors, including what exactly you’d like done, the tree’s height, its health, the location of the tree, and local labor costs. The national average cost for tree services is $865. Tree trimming isn’t necessary for all trees but can improve their health and longevity by encouraging new growth.
-
What is the difference between tree trimming and pruning?
Answer: While tree trimming and tree pruning might appear similar to the untrained eye, they serve different purposes. Tree pruning is used to thin a tree by removing unnecessary or burdensome branches. Tree trimming promotes healthy growth by trimming but not removing branches.
