I contacted Greater Bay Area Tree Service online on Sunday. Monday they called me about the palm…read moretree I needed to be trimmed or removed. They explained this tree would grow 1 foot year so probably best to remove. (this palm is too close to my home so I am not attached to it) They came today with a huge team & efficiently cut it down and carried away the parts. The area was left cleared out so I am very happy with their service.

They did a great job removing a massive pine tree that required a crane. It was done in very quick,…read moreand they cleaned up well. Hauled everything away as well. The only issue we experienced was they initially drove the crane onto our lawn, which tore it up and cracked the sidewalk. When I called to let them know, there was no apology for the damage. Instead, I was told the city should handle the sidewalk. Then given the excuse of it was "thin and washed out underneath," was why it cracked easily. While we know our lawn isn't perfect, it was still frustrating to see it torn up. Also, the truck partially drove over our sewer line. Fortunately, there was no damage. It would've been appreciated if they had at least consulted us beforehand. We would've gladly let them use the driveway from the start, where they eventually moved the crane anyway. We weren't even aware the sidewalk was cracked until we noticed it ourselves later that day. Someone could've easily gotten hurt. Instead of the company reporting it, we had to reach out to the city ourselves to start the repair process. In the end, great work on the tree, but we were disappointed with lack of accountability for the damage caused.

This company is LITERALLY THE most HONEST tree service that I've EVER had to use! Great customer…read moreservice! They handled everything I needed and more! They're EXTREMELY fair with their pricing & they definitely could've charge WAY more than they did! Wonderful attitudes & great energy! They didn't try to get me to get any more work done if I didn't need it. Very honest with me regarding how long I would have to get certain stuff handled, OR if it needed to be done sooner, rather than later. The owner was a very nice, honest, & dependable guy & didn't try to take advantage of the situation because I didn't know anything about trees! I SINCERELY & TRULY RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY OVER ANY OTHER COMPANY!!! Blessed to have been a customer of this company!!! I will DEFINITELY be using them when needed in the future!!!

They arrived on time and carefully evaluated how to safely do the job. They were extremely knowledgeable, efficient and professional throughout the entire day. Mark, Jay and John were also very nice! They have all the right tools and equipment, to do the job. They took down and fully removed a very large tree which was leaning over and towards our house. The three man crew never stopped working til the job was complete and very quickly. They also coordinated the grinding of the humongous stump and completed that the same day too, and they remained on site to ensure everything was all cleaned up. Thank you essential tree service.
