We moved into our house a few years ago and decided it was time to clean up the yard and trees which were a bit overgrown. We called Fine Tree Care and the owner Jeff came out to walk the yard with us. He had a deep knowledge not only of the trees we had but also in the yard design which showcases our house best and the sense that the work he envisioned would encourage growth throughout the day and each season. You could tell he was sensing how added light and breezes would make each tree feel. He reviewed the yard as an ensemble and not a set of individual plants. He also noticed a critical issue with our centerpiece 150-year old oak tree we needed to address ASAP. He got his team right on it as we wanted to transform the yard in just three days while my wife was on a business trip. I counted 2 stump grinders, three booms and 8 chainsaws working diligently and before my wife came home, the yard was cleaned up, all debris removed and the house view transformed. The light inside is so bright and the views spectacular. The best part was Jeff and his team were all so friendly, worked hard with a smile and always ready to answer any questions I had. I can't recommend them any higher. You will learn so much on your yard stroll with Jeff, believe me. read more

Fine Tree Care was absolutely wonderful to work with! Jimmy, the supervisor, was thoughtful, patient, considerate, and a delight to work with. Jimmy offered a very fair estimate, organized his team exceptionally well, and stayed at the job site to insure things were done correctly. Jimmy and his team exceeded our exceptions, taking down additional diseased trees at no additional costs while always checking in to make sure my husband and I agreed with the service. I think this is the BEST SERVICE I have ever gotten regarding a home project. I am forever grateful!!! read more

Jeff actually saved me money .. because he's honest about what needs to be done or, in this case, not done. I wanted to remove a tree because I thought it was dead. While we were on the phone, Jeff swung by to check out the tree. Luckily it's still healthy but just needs some trimming/shaping. He gave me his minimum quote but said if I could save money if I contacted a landscaper. Very professional. If I ever need a really big job on our redwoods I will definitely call on Fine Tree Care. read more

Jeff is very competent and experienced. He was out sick with pneumonia but still contacted me to schedule time for an hour + walk thru of our property and to present various ways to achieve our goals. His knowledge of trees and their relationship to the landscape is helpful and educational. read more

Jeff (owner) called back immediately and scheduled a site visit. Met with Daniel (site inspector - smart, clear, and thoughtful person) at the scheduled time. Waiting on a proposal... will update the review wants we've moved forward. But I must say - this is a quality business: responsible. read more

My first time using them was truly a five-star experience. I worked with Jimmy and I thought he was very knowledgeable and had great insight into ideas on things I hadn't noticed but I was very glad he did. I have giant oak tree in front of my house, Jimmy suggested sculpting it and it truly looks like a piece of art. Great team of professionals who were courteous polite knowledgeable and hard working. All of the trees and shrubs they worked on look beautiful! I will definitely use them again. They were not the cheapest, they were not the most expensive, but I think they were very fair with their price . I did not meet the owner but I would congratulate him on setting a high standard for his staff. read more

Working with Jimmy was a real pleasure. We needed three trees trimmed and shaped. I cut the branches off an old olive tree with my sawzall but but the base was too big. The gentleman cut the base down to size. Did a great job at a reasonable price. Cleaned up and our backyard looks great! Thanks Fine Tree Care! read more

Jeff and the Fine Tree crew did an exemplary job for us this year. We needed a medium sized fir tree removed and the stump ground, a large towering fir pruned of its dead branches, and a huge 100+ year-old olive tree pruned and shaped. We called several companies and received many bids but it wasn't until Jeff spent some time reviewing our needs and walking our property that we knew we had found the right company. Jeff listened to us, advised us and helped us clarify our priorities. His bid wasn't the lowest but it was the most carefully considered and it was clear that he knew what he was talking about. Jeff's knowledge and expertise is impressive and he matches it by having the right equipment and the right crew on the job. His crew was very courteous, respectful, and knowledgeable. They shared that they loved working for Jeff and that he made sure they received continuing education to move up in the company. Everyone on the team was careful of the landscaping around and under our trees. None of our landscaping was harmed and this included recent plantings under our olive tree. The crew did a great job of grinding the branches and cleaning up the site. You could tell that they took pride in their work and in their company. While the job was in progress, we had Jeff remove 4 smaller oaks that we thought we could cut ourselves. He had his crew take care of them, grind the stumps, and remove all of the wood at no extra charge. Jeff came by after the job was done to make sure we were happy with the job and to advise us how to keep our olive in tip top shape. We are totally satisfied with Fine Tree Care's work and will call them back to care for our olive tree as advised. Jeff's Fine Tree Care is a gem - they are a professional expert team with great integrity. We can't recommend them more highly! read more

This is one class act company. From bid to completion took about 5 days and at a very fair cost. These are the tree guys you want!! Thank you so much for restoring my faith in your trade. read more

I cannot recommend Fine Tree Care highly enough. Their skill, professionalism, and courtesy is above and beyond. The first time I met Jeff, he spent a great deal of time walking me through the scope of our vegetation management project, and I learned so much about fire prevention even beyond the work that they did. Their team was extremely efficient, and got our work done on time and within budget. I was so impressed with the results I re-hired them several weeks later to work on a different part of the property. Our yard and view have never looked better, and I'm grateful for the good work they did. Thanks Jeff and team! read more

We used Fine Tree Care for a relatively large project involving redwood trimmings, stump removals, and taking down some old trees. Very good attention to detail, customer service, communication and efficiency. They're probably not the cheapest but quality of service was superb. read more

I worked with Jimmy from the beginning through to the end of our project. The job was to sculpt and remove several heavy branches of a majestic old live oak that hung over our guest house. Every single member of the crew was knowledgeable and courteous and extremely professional. Every detail of the job was done to my expectation, and then some. I was very impressed with the entire team and the excellent results exceeded my expectations. If you care about the results and longevity of your tree health and beauty, I highly recommend Fine Tree Care. read more

Great customer service! Jimmy Responded on weekend and scheduled right away! Removed two pines and several sick myoporum. Very professional! Brought whole crew and were very efficient! Definitely recommend! read more

I am very happy with the work done by Fine Tree Care. Brian and Kodiak arrived today in a cherry picker, and they did a great job! Both men were professional, knowledgeable and friendly, and I love how my tree looks! I am completely satisfied and highly recommend them to anyone looking to have tree work done. Thank you Fine Tree Care for an excellent job! read more

We recently used the services of Fine Tree Care for a property in the Sebastopol Hills. The entire experience has far exceeded our expectations. The initial consultation highlighted owner Jeff Rebischung's artistic vision and exceptional knowledge, from both his practical experience of dealing with Sonoma County vegetation and training in Japan. His crew was professional and exceedingly attentive to our needs, utilizing highly advanced equipment and techniques. And now we cannot get enough of the gorgeous view that was recaptured and framed in by Fine Tree Care and its expert craftsmen. If you desire the absolute best, look no further. read more

I had a fair amount of large pines and oaks that needed to be cut, hauled, and or trimmed in Timber Cove. Daniel came out, inspected the property, gave a fair price and said the job could be done in 1-3 days depending on the size of the crew. They got the job done in one day with a crew of 10+ men. Very impressive. Highly recommend Fine Tree Care. read more

We have been customers of Jeff Rebischung and Fine Tree Care since we moved to West County about five years ago. The property hadn't had tree maintenance in a long time and needed a major sprucing up. Jeff's crew were phenomenal - two bucket trucks and a huge crew came on the work day and they got an amazing amount of work done and left the property neat and tidy when it was finished. We felt so good about the service that we've hired them ever since for all our tree care. They just finished another major work day at our property this past month, and the results were nothing less than what we've come to expect - timely service, amazing communication, a thorough job with every detail attended to, and our property looking better than ever. These folks are as good as it gets. read more

I got bids from 5 different compaines before I hired Jeff and Justin from Fine Tree Care. These guys are very professional, highly trained and performed high quality work. They are worth the price! We had 3 large liquidambar trees removed from the front of our building and over 30 trees of varying sizes around the property pruned. They did the work quickly with attention to detail and were communicative every step of the way. The pruning job is gorgeous and they left the site cleaner than it was when they arrived. Highly recommended! read more

I would highly recommend Fine Tree care. They were professional, courteous, and well priced. They removed a very large tree in a difficult location and saved an existing fence that I thought would need to be removed to take out the tree. read more

I needed several trees pruned, old tree stumps ground down and a diseased pine tree removed. Josh & team came when I wasn't home and completed the job exactly as discussed. They also trimmed some hedges that was not part of the SOW. Great experience. I will definitely use Fine Tree Care again. read more

From the initial contact with their office, to the actual work being done, Fine Tree Care was absolutely fantastic to work with. Jeff came out to look at the work that needed to be done and give us an estimate. He was extremely knowledgeable and gave us different ways that the work could be done. Jeff covered all the basis and the bid was very good. His crew came out that same week and accomplished the job in record time. I have to say that his crew is fabulous! In my opinion we could not have had a better experience and we would recommend this company to anyone. Thank you to Jeff and all the crew. read more

We first met Jeff Rebischung, owner of Fine Tree Care, at the Sonoma county Home Fair. After checking online and researching his company's reputation, we decided to call him for an estimate. We had two large redwood trees that were rubbing against our Guerneville home with large branches dropping frequently and we knew it was time to remove them to prevent more damage. Our job was complicated by the location of a power pole in our front yard and the close proximity to our neighbor's home. We needed someone we could trust to do the job safely and we felt very comfortable with Jeff's attention to detail and his ability to coordinate all aspects of the job. Jeff took the time to meet with several neighbors, as we needed to access other properties in order to remove the trees. Everyone he met with felt reassured by his confidence in his crew and their ability to handle the delicate operation. During the removal process, it was discovered that the top of our tallest tree was split and decayed. It was just a matter of time before the tree would have caused serious damage to our home. Thankfully, the crew was able to safely remove the rotted section and I am happy to report that the entire job was uneventful. I was impressed with the entire crew. Everyone was very professional and took great care to leave our yard looking better than before. We will use Fine Tree Care again in the future and recommend them unconditionally. read more

Not even one star. This guy came out when I requested a bid for a downed oak tree. He had apparently been here years before to bid something and did not get the job...this was evident by his remarks and then his poor attitude. He proceeded to tell me for 2 hours that another tree was leaning, would fall on an immediate basis and that I should hire him to take it out NOW, like tonight. He went to my neighbors (for 45 minutes) to ask for permission to use their driveway to pull his equipment into before he ever gave a bid. I had originally asked for a bid to remove downed tree, and now added removal of the leaning one. NO bid for either of this, only a bid to 'top' the leaning tree, not remove it. Guess he did not see the downed 47' tree in the front of the house, next to the leaning one, or hear my requests for bids for removal of both. I have had three tree people out, no one said boo about the other tree, nor did my arborist of 22 years. Just now had another tree contractor come out who said there was plenty of room to use equipment as I asked him to bid removing both trees. Now I have gotten 2 icky e-mails from "Jeff" and realize his visit to the neighbors was to alarm them only and push me into a job. Wish I had the great experience as everyone else did, but sadly not the case. I have hired another tree company with not only good communication, they are ethical and honest. read more

Fine Tree Care went above and beyond my expectations! We had a huge Douglas fir fall on our inlaw unit during the terrible storms. Jeff and his crew came in with an enormous crane and lifted the tree off the house, disposed of all the wood, branches and debris and ground up the stump. When I came back the next day, I couldn't believe how great the place looked! If it wasn't for the tarp on the roof and the damage done to the house, you wouldn't have known a tree fell. They secured a tarp to the roof, put all of the landscaping back in it's place (once they removed the gigantic stump) and completely cleaned up everything. I was SO impressed and am recommending them to everyone I talk to. read more

I feel I really ripped off by this company. I have four large oak trees. Jimmy, the supervisor, charged me almost $4,000 to trim them - aside from cutting out some small dead wood, they removed one large branch and did cut two small trees down for me but that was it. He arrived with three lift trucks and four crews - way overkill and estimated 7 hours. They did a lot of chatting and hanging around and Jimmy was on the phone every time I went out to check on things. When they finished, there was still a lot of dead wood in the trees. After three calls, Jimmy said he would come back to check on that but never set a time with me and one day showed up unannounced while I wasn't home and left a card. He then didn't return my call. I gave up on getting my money's worth. I've had to hire another company just 2 1/2 years later who is charging me half as much and doing way more work - including removing some large branches that are weighing two of my oaks in one direction. He has also found Sudden Oak Disease in one oak. Don't get ripped off by this company, shop around. read more

These folks are fast, nice, reasonable and generous. With little lead time, they worked in the rain to make a fallen tree safe and then finished the job, cleaning out some neighboring trouble spots. The company has a great attitude around pricing, efficiency, quality, and customer satisfaction. Transparent, honest, just plain nice people who want stuff to come out right for a fair price. read more

Jeff, the owner of Fine Tree Care is the best! After recently buying a home in the Russian River area that is surrounded by redwood trees, we decided that we should have an expert come out to assess what, if any, work needed to be done for fire prevention and to detect any other issues. Jeff came out to do the assessment and was right on time, very personable and extremely knowledgeable. He happily answered all of our questions, assessed the entire property and detailed all that could be done. We learned so much and were happy to know that there wasn't anything that urgently needed to be done. We look forward to working with Jeff in the future. read more

We've had Fine Tree Care work at our home twice in the last two weeks. Jimmy gave us good estimates and guided us in what we should do to take care of our trees. He brought a professional team to do the work and he remained present to be sure the job was done well and complete. We couldn't be more pleased. We will use for future work and recommend Fine Tree Care to are friends. read more

I want to commend Jeff, owner of Fine Tree Care, for his excellent client care. Two members of his company had come to my home to trim two trees. They were here for about half an hour and used only a hand saw to do the job. I paid the tree service minimum of $375, although I felt a bit uncomfortable about it. Jeff came by to check on the job a few days later. After reviewing the crew's notes, Jeff came by again to make things right. He returned my check for $375 and I gave him a new one for $100, a fair price for the work that was done. I think most businesses would have taken the money and run. Jeff has a kind heart and a real desire to make his clients happy. read more

Once again, the crew of Fine Tree Care exceeded our expectations. From the actual work done on our 30 year old tree to the meticulous cleanup, we are extremely satisfied. Jeff and the crew have been professional, considerate, and listened/responded to any concerns. An anomaly in this day and age....highly recommended. read more

I had the opportunity of working again with Jeff at Fine Tree Care. What I love about this company is they do not butcher your yard. They sculpt it. I live in a redwood forest and taking care of tall trees is not an easy task. Fine Tree Care goes out of their way with a vision on how to keep the forest safely back from your house yet let you enjoy all the beauty that a forest offers. Jeff has a artistic eye and can look at a dense thicketed forest and see how to maximize the beauty that is there. They made my property look like a beautiful park by carefully sculpting my trees into different heights and giving me some depth so I can look into the trees. They also fixed my driveway that had redwoods coming up in it. They used a stump grinder on the root and got it out. They patched it properly with asphalt. How many tree companies will do that for you? I now have worked with Jeff for 9 years and i know when I call Jeff, I am getting the best. Love this company. All the employees take pride in what they do- and that is why, they are the best in Sonoma. read more

Jeff at Fine Tree Care is a gem. He analyzed our issues and had his crew out to do the work in the same day. They are real professionals and care about safety and aesthetics and tree health. What more could a homeowner ask for. read more

My Yelp login shows I live in Illinois, but I moved to Sebastopol from there a few years ago. Anyway, we had a tree care specialist down the street where we used to live, and we got spoiled -- or so we thought. When we moved to Sebastopol to an acre property with 60+ trees, we worried a lot about how we'd handle it. Finally (yes, after two years), we called four different local vendors to see what they could do for the budget we had. The only vendor that came close was Fine Tree Care. But they weren't just the cheapest estimate to remove 10 trees and trim dead wood off of about 20, making our home much more fire safe and attractive. They were by far the most knowledgeable. Shockingly so. Plus super nice folks...and they use good ear protection, which we worry about because we know about hearing loss...so it feels good to employ their company when they treat their employees clearly so well. No downsides, all upsides, and a beautiful experience to boot. Oh...also...they finished this impossible job in 2 days. Yup. Crazy good. read more

Terrible work, sloppy, another company will do repair. After the recent fires we wanted dead limbs removed from a tall liquid amber tree and our overgrown shrubs thinned and trimmed. The first estimate did not include the tree work, but Jimmy verbally agreed to do it.Big mistake! Later he denied that was part of the job. A few days later on Feb 21, he arrived at 4:30 with some very tired-looking workers, assuring us another crew was on the way. More people did arrive, but it was dark! Some had headlamps. We could hear chainsaws. It was so dark that we refused to pay the bill. In the morning it looked like a windstorm went through the yard. Branches, twigs, leaves everywhere with some shrubs not touched, the tree work not done. It took me an hour to clean up and rake up the yard. Our ground cover plants were trampled. Then he denied the tree was part of the job, but we insisted. A few days later someone came with along pole trimmer and did another sloppy job of hacking off the dead branches. A few days later, the owner came by and agreed that the job did not meet his standards. He brought in a crew and they shaped the shrubs as they should have the first time. The yard looks fine now. read more

From my call to Fine Tree Care to the completion of the job was a short 5 days! Great customer service! The crew of 6 worked 9 hours to complete and clean up our job. They were polite and efficient. Owner, Jeff, was very quick to respond to my initial call. The day after I called, he was here to see the job site. Everything went smoothly. I switched to Fine Tree Care after waiting for two months for Western Tree to schedule the job...all the while with dismal customer NO service. So glad I switched to Fine Tree Care!! read more

Jeff, the owner of Fine Tree Care, is wonderful! I highly recommend Jeff and his company. Jeff is an expert on everything related to trees and tree removal. He asks questions to ensure he clearly understands of your needs and then makes recommendations based on his experience. Jeff is honest and takes the time to provide all the information you need to manage your trees and property. I highly recommend him! read more
