After
Raffi S.

I needed a professional, licensed, and bonded tree trimmer to remove two codominant sycamore trees down to the stumps, grind out the stumps, and trim two other sycamore trees on my property. So I did what you're supposed to do and got three bids. Tino (Celestino) came in slightly higher than the highest bid--but I hired him anyway. Here's why. I wanted someone who would take the time to analyze my unique situation. The codominant trees had become dangerous. Thank God there was no damage and no one was hurt, but they were dropping branches and had something seeping from them. One was leaning over my garage; the other was leaning over my driveway. I wanted someone to explain how they would approach the climbing and cutting, what their process would be, and how they would ensure nothing got damaged. Tino did all of that and more. He even warned me that some plants in the area might get damaged, and if anything else was affected--like a drip line or water pipe--they would fix it. He also told me he would have his insurance company send me a Certificate of Insurance with my property address on it for peace of mind. I value promptness and cleanliness. I don't want people on my property who won't respect it. Tino and his crew went above and beyond my expectations. When the job required access to my neighbor's driveway, Tino approached my neighbor and politely requested permission. My awesome neighbor immediately agreed. But this meant a mess would be left behind on both driveways. Without me saying a word, Tino's crew jumped on it--they cleaned up my neighbor's driveway, and when they noticed dust and wood chips on my neighbor's roof, one of the crew members climbed up with blowers and left it spotless. Then he did the same for my roof and cleaned my driveway as well. This was a two-day job. The trees were massive and complicated to cut, requiring them to work piece by piece, saw everything into smaller sections, and carry it all down a long driveway to the dump bin. They covered the driveway with a tarp just in case. They came with eight guys to do the job. When the climber finished, the rest of the crew immediately got to work putting everything back the way it was. During grinding, they broke a pipe coupling--which was expected given how tight the space was--and they went and got the part to fix it. They also replaced a drip line they had to cut before grinding. Both repairs were done perfectly. The place was spotless when they were done. They came back a few days later to trim the other two sycamore trees, which took only a couple of hours. Once again, the property was left immaculate. Here's my advice after this whole experience: hire someone who, when they come out to give you a bid, is professional, personable, and explains the details of what they're going to do. You may encounter people who show up only to see if you'll accept their number. Before fully understanding your needs, they just want to talk broad strokes, throw out a bid, and gauge your reaction. If the owner of the company doesn't show care in the work, imagine the culture among the employees--they'll care even less. I want clear communication, detailed explanations, and a seamless process. You certainly don't want someone to give you a low bid and then stop mid-job to say, "I didn't foresee this issue--that's going to cost another $XXXX." If the bid is done right, it requires the vendor to spend time on your property, talk to you, uncover your needs, and discuss the details. That's exactly what Tino did--with respect and professionalism. Yes, his bid was higher, but it was worth every penny. I got exactly what I wanted, and nothing we discussed was deviated from. So if you have a tree trimming or tree and stump removal need, definitely get bids--but make sure Tino is your last bid. See what he has to say before you decide. See some before and after pictures. Hope this helps. God bless!

Oak Tree

I had an old oak tree in my backyard that needed to come down it was huge close to the house and starting to lean. I called a few places for quotes, and A Cut Above Tree Service stood out right away. Not only was his pricing the best, but he was also honest, professional and responsive. Tino came out personally to give the estimate. He explained the process clearly and made sure I understood every step. My guy clearly knew what he was doing. His crew arrived on time, worked efficiently, and cleaned up everything when they were done no mess left behind. The whole oak tree was down and removed in just a few hours, and they even ground the stump. If you're looking for reliable, fair priced tree work with excellent customer service, I highly recommend Tino and his team. Keep it up Tino you're killing it!

The crew was fast, professional, careful, and left everything very clean when they were finished. They also went above and beyond and took care of a couple of extra things we asked about at no additional charge, including trimming some bamboo that was interfering with our gate and removing a tree branch that was hanging over the roof. Very happy with the results and the service. We would definitely use them again and highly recommend them!

But that's exactly what I got with Pineda's Tree Care. I had a tree leaning into my driveway that was making parking in the back of my house feel like an obstacle course. After reaching out, I got a quick response, a fantastic price, and great communication throughout the entire process. What impressed me most, though, was the attention to detail. While assessing the tree, they noticed a few other areas around the property that could become dangerous and took the time to bring them to my attention. No pressure, no unnecessary sales pitch, just someone who clearly knows their business and cares about doing right by their customers. The whole experience was smooth, professional, and genuinely pleasant. My driveway is accessible again, my car is grateful, and I've officially found my go-to tree service. If you're anywhere in the Valley and need tree work done, give Pinedas Tree Care a call. Good service at a fair price deserves to be recognized, and these guys earned every star!

Yamill came on time, spent time assessing the tree all around, not just from afar like the others. He gave me honest recommendations on his lack of evidence for disease process or pest invasion and made recommendations while saying the tree may not ultimately survive this period of high stress. He advised not to trim the tree mid summer while in this condition and gave me his card to call him in the winter when the tree is dormant to see what course of trimming action, if any, we can take once the tree is properly fed and watered over this period. He didn't try to sell me unnecessary treatment, or pruning...he could have. I really appreciated the level of professionalism.

Certified arborist Juan Bautista came to look at the tree. He was completely honest and said that there was not indication of termite infestation.

When I need an arborist I will definite be contacting Natural Wonders Trees Inc. Highly highly recommend.

5 Stars+++! Outstanding Service and Exceptional Work!…read more I cannot say enough wonderful things about All About Trees! I have had my trees and hedges maintained for over 20 years, and this was by far the best work I have ever had done. From the beginning, Jim and Valerie, the owners, were incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, and professional. The estimate was very reasonable, and the quality of the work was absolutely exceptional. Their crew trimmed the enormous hedges surrounding my property as well as all of my trees, and the results were outstanding. The workers were punctual, skilled, meticulous, and clearly took great pride in their work. They went above and beyond my expectations, and the cleanup was impeccable. It is rare to find a company that delivers such exceptional quality, professionalism, and customer service from start to finish. All About Trees exceeded my expectations in every way. I would recommend them without hesitation and I will definitley use them again! Truly a 5-star+++ experience!

Mike at All About Trees has been our arborist for over 25 years. He and his crew are reliable,…read morehardworking, knowledgeable and very professional. Today we had 3 very large pine trees trimmed and our greatest concern is always the furry friends that call these trees home. Other tree companies may scoff, but Mike understands and his crew always look before they cut. We greatly appreciate this. We also wanted to save branches to use in landscape around our yard. We've seen this at various So Cal parks and arboretums and like the way it adds to the "woodsy" feeling to the flora. The guys not only were courteous about this, they also regularly checked to see if we wanted any of the saved branches trimmed. Some yes, but some long ones will get a special arrangement and the guys helped haul those to a separate staging area. Aside from the 3 very large pines, we had cypress, juniper and a "smaller", juvenile pine we needed trimmed and "tipped." The juniper has a draping privacy aspect to a side patio Hubs was thinking of clearing out, but after walking through and cutting as Hubs pointed, we had a nicely sculpted, shorter drape w/dead branches cleaned out and perfect clearance from the house. The additional pine needed to be clear of a property line, but we also are working towards a particular shape with that tree, since it's young. The crew understood everything, communication was great and Hubs is happy with the results. If you are in need of an excellent, licensed, bonded, professional crew - that has been working together for over 20 years! - call All about trees. Valerie will answer and get you on Mike's calendar for an estimate. Tell them "CC" sent you. Cheers! "CC"

I first of all got in touch with another company that a lot of people raved about - however they were useless and their quote was astronomical! So someone else suggested Viking Tree Service. Jacob, the owner, came out when I asked him to come (in fact he was early!), walked the property with me, when I asked about a couple of other trees, he told me NOT to do them right now as I would kill them, to wait till December, and then gave me an incredibly fair quote for the job. They came back three days later and did a beautiful job. Took them about 6 hours, but they cleaned everything away, and did exactly what I asked and a little more. My palms look great, but he cleared the trees away from my roof as I am tired of the animals playing tag on my roof whilst I try to sleep! Jacob is a really nice guy, and his guys did a really great job, and I was happy to pay that price. I will definitely have them come back in December to take care of everything else for me. Oh, and he asked the neighbours for their permission to go on to their roofs and garden areas, and they cleaned up all the debris from their properties too.
