Arbor Age Tree Services - Tree Services Near Me

Chris was aware of the work I had and the location and he specifically told me he could do a virtual consultation and continuously asked me to call him multiple times acting very interested in the work. He was borderline harassing me to call for a quote and when I had my husband call he said that he couldn't take on the work because he didn't have time. He stole my number off of his caller ID and wrote it down and passed it along to another company without my permission after my husband hung up on him when he recommended another contractor and when my husband asked if they had a yelp page and if they had reviews he said they had bad reviews because of the algorithm. Then this other company started texting and calling me. I can find my own contractors with good reviews thank you very much. If you don't want the work then please stop harassing me. Edit: attached photo of business owner asking me to call three times when there was no response from me for business he did not even want or have time for! read more

Well, after having my Liquid Amber trees trimmed, it turns out I am allergic to them! So no choice but to trash them. Called Christopher and he and his guys came out and cut down the ones in the back yard. The pollen was blowing right in my bedroom window. They were on time, and it took the three of them only 1 hour to cut down 2 medium sized and 1 small tree. $400. Seemed reasonable. Christopher is a real arborist and knows everything about trees, very knowledgeable and inspires confidence. read more

Arbor Age Tree Services - 11-9-11 The truck that eats trees. - Tree Services Near Me

Just updating my review three years after I went with Chris and Arbor Age for a previous tree removal servicing. Having had a great experience with them in the past, I decided to contact Chris for another job in my backyard. Chris responded quickly and was very honest about being too busy to take on new jobs. He referred me to another trusted company, who was able to take me in quickly. Though I wasn't able to work with Arbor Age again, this type of customer service will be the reason I call them first for future work. read more

Christopher was too busy to take our business, but was incredibly helpful and professional. He referred us to another service that he highly recommends. Thank you for the quick and courteous service Christopher! read more

Contacted for tree in my driveway He responded quickly and was honest in saying he was busy the next day but referred me to another person. As soon as qe hung up that other person texted me and set for next day THAT is great customer service and help THANK YOU! read more

Chris called me from his family vacation in Italy! I read his excellent reviews on Yelp and messaged him last night (a Friday night). At noon today, he calls me from Italy where he's on vacation with his family to let me know he's too busy right now and provided me a referral. Talk about being blown away by his caring for a complete stranger and someone he obviously did not view as a potential customer! I would love to sit down and have some gelato with him when he returns :-) What a kind, caring man. Let's all follow his example and be kind to one another. read more

Reached out to Chris recently to discuss possible options in curing a tree on the property of my project I was doing for a client and he was very responsive immediately , actually the only one to response out of all businesses in area . He gave me proper information what to do and what not to do , he even informed me to not spend money on fake solutions which would not help me and stay away from scams . Chris was a pleasure to talk to and take the time out of his day to help me free of charge will defiantly use him for any other projects I have regarding landscaping or tree services .

I had a large cypress tree that was dying. Christopher was recommended by the University of California tree advice service. Unfortunately, his schedule was full, but he was able to recommend a colleague who came the next day and saved my tree. It is so refreshing to deal with someone who really is willing to help, even at the expense of his own business. Thank you, Chris! read more

Highly recommend Thier services. They completed the job in very good timing with satisfying results

Let's be real - there's a way to get your trees trimmed less expensively. But - if you care about your trees it's important to have them evaluated professionally and trimmed by a certified arborist, at least periodically. I selected Christopher because if his professionalism and his knowledge of the trees. He was very communicative and gave me a bid price on each individual tree so I could pick and choose which trees I wanted to tackle first. The crew arrived on time, they were very fast and professional. One of them even helped me gather fruit from my trimmed loquat tree. They've done a fantastic job, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. For the long term viability of your trees, it's good to consider this professional option. read more

Had a large hedge that I needed removed and got a few different quotes. After speaking with Christopher I decided to go with Arbor Age Tree Service and was very pleased with the results. They arrived as scheduled and took care of the removal and stump grinding. Cleaned up and hauled away everything. Would definitely recommend Christopher and Arboar Age Tree Service to others. read more

My HOA has been using Arbor Age Tree Service for several years now with stellar results. His pricing is always fair and his workers do a great job. They're very concerned with our satisfaction and many of the homeowners also have them trim their individual yards. Being in real estate and having worked with many other gardeners in the past, I appreciate the fact that this company produces proof that they are licensed and insured, and they have great experience with many types of trees. Christopher has always been very patient with my HOA, even though it takes us some time to get the approvals to do the work. So whether you're a homeowner, property manager, or HOA, I urge you to give them a try. Bet you too will be be quite pleased with the results. read more

We've been using Arbor Age Tree for about 8 years now. Years ago a neighbor decided to go the cheap route and trim his ornamental pear tree, which almost killed it. Arbor Age Tree Service rescued the tree and now it's beautiful. Since then we've taken over the neighbors tree and won't allow the neighbor to trim it anymore. Arbor Age Tree Service now trims the neighbors tree. On Friday March 13, 2015, I had tree's trimmed in the front and back. Before the trim date, Chris came out evaluate and estimate the project. He's always been prompt, professional and he and his staff have great customer rapport. The paperwork was complete with price and there were no hidden costs the day of the work and the price did not deviate at all from the original quote. The entire work crew is professional, hard working and neat. They clean everything and make sure everything is to your liking. Im biased when I say our trees are the best looking trees in the neighborhood. Two of our neighbors also use Arbor Age Tree Service to trim their trees and they also look great and help with the curb appeal in the neighborhood. I only wish everyone in the neighborhood and the land owners association used Arbor Age Tree to trim their trees. Thanks Arbor Age Tree Service for making our trees look picture perfect. read more

Ok so normally I try to make my reviews funny, but there just really isn't anything funny about chopping down a tree that's threatening my foundation. After checking reviews on Yelp, it seemed to me a no brainer to go with Arbor Age. Christopher came out quickly to do an assessment for me. He's very professional and delivers a copy of all of his paperwork and proof of insurance and license. That's actually the first time I've ever received that from a company. A refreshing change. I had a couple of trees that needed to be knocked down but not all right now. He gave me a quote good for six months on my other iterations of tree massacre which will help me with my financial planning. The first tree was super important to me and he scheduled me for the next day which was nice since he had a small bit of time available and he was booked out 3 weeks. His guys showed up early. WAY early. Like 8am early, which is totally my fault since I did tell him I wanted it done ASAP. Can't fault the guy for listening to my request. Mental note for next time though. :) The thing I especially liked is that his guys set up a shield so that no chips flew at my neighbors yard. This was especially helpful so as not to upset her over something completely avoidable. They were in and out and cleaned up their mess. I have zero complaints and will absolutely use their services again here shortly. read more

Wow...I can't say enough about these guys! Talk about a well oiled machine. Everything was professional from start to finish. Chris gave us an incredibly fair price for removal of a very, large star pine that previous owners had placed in a very tight, totally wrong spot. It was encroaching on our patio, deck supports and worst of all the pool. Everything went smoothly on the day of removal.David, Derrick and Omar did an amazing, well planned out job. They managed to keep most of the debris out of the pool.They got all the work done in less than 3 hours!!!! They were mindful of the neighbors and did a fabulous job of removing and cleaning up everything. They even moved our patio furniture and other items without being asked. I would use their services again in a heartbeat. I can see why they get such wonderful reviews!!! Thank you for a job well done!!!!! read more

There's a good reason these guys have five stars from virtually every person who took the time to post a review. I had made the mistake of hiring a lower-priced tree service several years ago and regretted it, so I went to three pros for quotes this time. Arbor Age was not the lowest -- in the middle -- but Chris was clearly the most straightforward and knowledgeable. But his crew was even better. They were a highly experienced, very skilled, professional, polite and grateful band of brothers. They fixed the errors of past tree hacks, briefed me on their plans, showed flexibility when I asked for modifications, cleaned up completely and even left me with some beautifully chopped firewood and very specific advice on watering and pest control. I cannot recommend them more highly. Thank you gentlemen. read more

Arbor Age Tree Services - BEFORE - Tree Services Near Me

From start to finish, I can't say enough good things about this company. When I called Christopher for a quote, he came to my home and provided a detailed list of the work to be done. He called the day before to remind me of the appointment. His crew came on time. These guys were professional all the way. They introduced themselves to me, assured me the plants around my trees would not be damaged, and that they would do a thorough clean up. They did all they promised. Arbor Age treats trees live the living creatures they are....no spikes to get up the trees! Christopher is a licensed professional arborist. It was worth the slightly extra charge to have Arbor Age trim my trees because I know they will not harm them. This is the third time I've had Arbor Age on my property. They are the only tree service I will use. Absolute quality all the way. read more

Another 10 stars for Christopher After seeing a neighbor tree that was terrible trimmed, more like chopped I was again thankful for excellent job! read more

When we bought our house, the back yard was completely overgrown and it was all we could do to keep up with the leaves! Chris and his crew were the solution. They were so professional from the beginning with the free estimate through the 6+ hours that the crew of six spent at our home. They arrived promptly at 7:00AM and were very considerate (putting up "tree work" signs on our street, collecting stray branches on large drop cloths, etc.). We liked their services so much that we are going to recommend them to my mom. read more

Noe was very nice and willing to come do an on-site viewing of our property in order to give us an exact quote. We ended up going with another company because his pricing was very high and way outside our range. We did have to keep touching base to get our bid. We were asking him to repair a retaining wall, add on to an existing wall, fence in the front yard, trim trees and cleanup yard, then trim out by the street and area with brick and bark. So a lot of different things requested but price still seemed high based on other companies we interviewed as well. read more

We used Arbor Age to remove two trees in our backyard, a loquat tree that was dying and a Siberian gooseberry tree. Christopher came out to assess our trees and proposed a solution- to grind them to the stump. They came out and did great work. Our trees were grounded down and it opened up our backyard. Couldn't be happier with the service and we will definitely use them again. read more

Arbor Age Tree Services - Tree Services Near Me

My husband was concerned about our 3 large pine trees in the backyard and we found Christopher through yelp - Arbor Age seemed to be the best and didn't disappoint. He came out to my house earlier than expected and took a look at the yard and diagnosed the situation quickly, I was worried that the trees were dead and would need to be removed which would be very $$$. He told me exactly what was going on and that they would need to be trimmed back in 3 months- they were not dead YAY! We will be calling Arbor Age back in the fall/winter for our trimming. Oh, Christopher also made a call to my husband to explain everything in detail since he wasn't here and left a detailed report. Thanks so much! A+! read more

I have a very old tree in my backyard that is in need of removal, and reached out to Chris for help. Unfortunately for me it's the busy season and Chris couldn't take on my job at this time, but he was able to refer me to another great contractor as an alternative. Thank you for taking the time to discuss my issue and making sure that I was able to resolve it! read more

I'm very confused about these reviews. This company has extremely strange customer service. I've never experienced anything like it! They asked how long I could wait to have my trees trimmed and I said it didn't really matter but I mostly cared about the health of the trees since they are so old. Well this apparently was not the right answer as this guy kept cutting me off and insisting I choose a number of weeks I could wait. So off the top of my head i said six weeks or so, and he said he couldn't help me. So then I said well I can wait longer and it is not a matter of urgency but still he cut me off again and again saying that I said 6 weeks. It was frankly the most frustrating conversation. He truly did not want my business and when I asked him why he couldn't just trim the trees one day later then the 6 weeks I threw out there he hung up on me. Again I am extremely confused by these reviews when based on the reviews I was hoping and prepared to call just one company and they could have the job which is probably a~$3000 job based on the size of the trees. And to top it off if he had said that his next available wasn't until mid-January I may have excepted that based on these reviews. What a bummer! I'm sure they do good work but he was such a jerk to me. Note- make sure you have an exact date for when you want the job completed if you call this company or they will force you into saying a date and then tell you that they can do it one day later and you said a specific date so therefore they can't do it and will hang up. Horrible customer service!! read more

Arbor Age Tree Service is terrific. Over the years I have used many others to trim my trees, and was never happy with the results. Christopher, the owner, is actually an arborist, so not only does he know what he is doing, but he is also a wealth of knowledge about trees. My trees were finally trimmed right and have never looked better. Great prices too. I highly recommend this company! read more

We had Chris out to assess our tree and provide a quote. He was quick to return my yelp message and to schedule the onsite. He provided all his credentials in our first visit and walked me through what he thought should be done to the tree. We decided to hire him for the job. The tree came out exactly as he explained and it looks great. It really opened up the front yard and lets more light into the house. I would highly recommend Chris. (I was surprised at the cost but thought Chris was well worth it given the help the tree needed). read more

7/17/2015 Christopher and his guys were great. The quote was exactly what I was expecting, Christopher is very professional, he presented me with all of his insurance information up front and was very detailed about what would happen with each of my trees. His crew showed up on time and made very quick work out of my three large trees. Now the trees look great and my backyard has a whole new look. Thanks Arbor Age. read more

We had a huge tree in very close quarters near the beach that had outgrown its space. I searched yelp and found many positive reviews about Arbor Age. Chris gave us a very fair bid, and sent a crew to take down the monster. I was amazed with the work this crew did. It was physics, geometry, and art all wrapped into a 4 hour job. They had to map out a strategy to get those branches to fall on exact spots, and on safe ground. I have new respect for the work these men do. They ground the stump, and left the area cleaner than when they arrived. Thank you Chris and crew. True professionals. read more

Just moved into a house that had 6 giant Birds of paradise and palm trees planted every foot or two in the yard. We met with Christopher to have him remove the giant birds because they were pushing the rear fence down and taking over the yard as well as some palms that were planted to close to the house. Christopher's team cut down and stump ground all the trees in very quick order. Christopher was the only person who said we could stump grind Birds of paradise below the surface next to our fence instead of removing the root ball. This saved us from having to replace the fence right away which is great. Chris's team also trimmed the palms we did not take out and the place looks great now. Fair price easy to work with. Highly recommend. read more

Arbor Age was great from start to finish. They were efficient, clean and the price was fair. Would highly recommend them. :)

We've been using Arbor Age Tree Service since 2012 and they've always provided excellent service. They are always punctual and very professional. We just had three trees cut and of course, great service as usual. Once I find a company that provides consistently great service, I'm loyal to it, and this is one of them. Many thanks to Chris and his crew. read more

We had a huge job - and Arbor Age did a fabulous job. I can't be more happy with the job they did. The crew was courteous, kind and very professional. They were on time every day (our job lasted 5 days). They cleaned up the area every night. My trees and yard look awesome, no one has ever done such a great job before. They may not be the cheapest - but so well worth the money and to know the workers are bonded and insured and the job they do - can't be beat read more

It's often hard to find a tree service company that does good work for a fair price, but Arbor Age fills the bill. Christopher quickly returned calls, came the next day for an estimate, and offered services that other companies could not or would not do. The crews (2 trucks) arrived when scheduled, did their work quickly, cleaned up and were off. The guy doing the stump grinding spent the rest of the day and half of another to nearly eliminate any traces of our seven infernal Brazilian pepper trees. Nice! read more

We found this company because they were doing work in our neighborhood and asked them for a quote to trim the 15 plus trees in our backyard. They where very knowledgeable about all the different type of trees we had in the backyard and made great recommendations. On the day of trimming the crew that showed up was very friendly and knew just what to do. Our backyard looks great now thanks to Arborage Tree Service and we will definitely use them again. read more

I had a very big job for tree removal at my home in Olivenhain - 7 trees needed to be removed. I called the top 2 rated companies on Yelp - Arbor being one of them. Christopher could come over the next evening (at my request) while the other said I'd have to meet them at my home during the morning or middle of the day sometime later that week. Christopher demonstrated a lot of knowledge regarding the nature of my issues right away -- particularly 3 tall dead alders on the slope near my home that would be very challenging to remove safely. He wrote up his bid and said he could do the work while my family and I were away on vacation (perfect). He also said his business is all about quality and his reputation. After he left, my wife and I talked it over -- and we never got the second bid. Given the other reviews I had read, I figured his had to be reasonable. His team did an excellent job. Cleaned up very well after themselves and even brought down our trash cans because they knew we were on vacation. We plan on using them again. read more

Arbor Age Tree Service was professional from the very first meeting. They went over their safety policies, showed us credentials and proof of their workman comp insurance on all of their workers. We hired them to remove 4 trees, camphor, peach, Two 65 foot Leland cypress. We also had them trim & shape our jacaranda, magnolia, mimosa and 2 twisted junipers. The crew was on time each day, they all worked very hard, communication was effective, they cleaned up after finishing each of the 3 days. (They even cleaned up my neighbors yard since some of the branches fell on her lawn). I would highly recommend this company to anyone needing tree removal or tree trimming. read more
