I received excellent service for a landscaping update & mulch to my yard. They were professional, on time and kept to the scope we agreed. I was pleased with the quote & experience. I will use them again. read more

Absolutely love them! They've helped us out of a bind a few times. They are our new tree and lawn go-to guys!

With some recent high wind storms in the area, I woke up one morning to several really large tree limbs that had fallen on my driveway. I managed to move the limbs to one side of the driveway so that at least one vehicle could move out. I then began looking for a service to help me get rid of the those large tree limbs. Gilbert's Tree Service was nearby and had excellent Yelp reviews. I called their number via Yelp and within no time I was talking with someone who would be coming by my property to inspect the downed limbs. That person arrived 5 minutes later and after giving me an quote they had a crew at my house 5 minutes after that! They disposed of all the limbs and even cleaned up the debris! They did all of this for a fair price, too. I won't hesitate to utilize Gilbert's Tree Service again one day whenever needed. read more

After receiving outrageous bids to remove vines from the side of my house and other landscaping projects, I called Gilbert's Tree Service. Within 5 hours of making the call, they came by to provide a free estimate and provided their next availability to do the job. The crew was punctual and professional- they ensured each task was completed to my satisfaction. read more

Professional and honest, Gilbert's Tree Service will do what is right without you having to ask or tell them beforehand. They really do take pride in their work and the results show. I had a rather large limb hanging precariously over the house and this team of experts never gave me pause as they climbed, secured, cut and lowered, and hauled off the remnants. Great clean work. read more

Unfortunately the tree was cut with chain saws which ultimately caused it to become sick read more

Great service! I called them desparate to get someone out soon to do my lawn as it had grown so high. Sandra was wonderful and set me up for the very next day! She came out and got the lawn done and it looked great! It was a bit pricey but I was willing to pay for the excellent service and wonderful job that was done. They have been her once more and will come again tomorrow. Another great things is they are very attentive in contacting me to let me know when and what time they will be coming. Highly recommend them for anyone that needs great lawn care service! read more

Second year in a row to call them out. Great price. Very happy with service. Trimmed 4 neighborhood trees. Cleaned up after complete and left it cleaner than when they started. Suggest you oversee their efforts to guide them on which limbs to remove ... they take direction well and will offer suggestions. read more

They communicated well with us and gave us competitive pricing. We priced out three companies. This group was professional and trimmed our very tall Palm trees, cut down our large Citrus tree and another dead Palm tree to the stump as we requested because of it's location to the fence and brick we have in front patio. High Recommend. read more

Great service and team. Very responsive. Professional and easy to work with. Reasonably priced as well. Called on a Sunday and got a personal estimate same day. Work scheduled for the following day. Team was prepared, arrived on time, cut down and removed tree and cleaned up properly before leaving. Requested copy of invoice for insurance and received it promptly with follow up call from both the office staff and Pablo, the foreman. Highly recommended and will call these guys back for more work in the future. Bravo! read more

Their crew just left, trimmed large trees in both front and back of my house. Goal was to lighten its load and ensure no limbs would fall on our, or neighboring, houses. Guys did a great job, left the trees light but neat, took away all limbs and debris, cleared off my roof, and swept the concrete clean. They even took out a large pile of leaves and twigs that I had raked next to the tree and planned on bagging after they were done. Great service, fair price, highly recommend. Another service actually quoted a lower price but they were 3 hours late to our estimate appointment. Gilbert's crew was on time and got done early. We all work hard and have busy lives, respecting your customer's time is hugely valuable. read more

I called for an estimate​ and Junior came out and gave a fair bid on trimming two trees. Great thank you, let's do this thing. He said someone would call me Monday to set up a day. Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday went by. I called and the young lady was very helpful. She said she would get Junior's notes, send me an email bid that night,​ and call to schedule a day. Super I thought, we're back on track. No. I received no email or call. I'm not going to beg you to take my $650. I called another tree service got a bid for a little less and my trees are being trimmed tomorrow. It must be awesome to be so successful that you don't even need customers. read more

Super pro and clean!!!! 100% recommended they have cut 4 trees down for me and their work is fast.

While I didn't end up using their services, these guys came out and gave me a quote the same day and were very professional. I'll keep them in mind for future tree needs! Thank you. read more

My girlfriend had used these guys for other landscape work and they had seems very reasonable. She hired them for a major drainage and re-landscaping of her back yard. They did the shoddiest job ever. He was a no-show most days and dragged the projects out for weeks and not finished... draining everything onto her sidewalk. We had a really heavy rain two weeks ago and the drains didn't even work backing water into her yard. Everything he did was done poorly and everything was left half done. Finally rather than fix things to make it right his solution was to rip everything out and he left her yard a total wreck. I would not recommend this company for drainage read more

Extremely happy with Pedro and his crew. I had a roughly 20' seven year old oak tree, roughly 2' in diameter, that needed to be removed because it was going to soon create problems with the driveway. Being a member of NextDoor.com, I requested recommendations from my neighbourhood and Pedro was mentioned several times. On September 15th I sent him a text, including photographs of the tree and the area from which it needed to be removed. Within 10 minutes I received a reply, which included the price to cut down the tree, remove the debris, grind the stump/roots, and clean up. Of the three companies from whom I had requested a quote, he was the first to reply - and with the cheapest price. Scheduling was a breeze. I asked him on September 17th about his availability and was told he could do it the upcoming Tuesday. He arrived promptly at 8 am on September 22nd, as he said he would, with his crew. The job was completed within 40 minutes to my total satisfaction. Without hesitation, I would recommend him to any individual homeowner or HOA who uses a landscaping service for common areas. read more

We used Gilbert's Tree Service in fall 2012 to remove a couple of pine trees and crepe myrtles from our property and grind a bunch of stumps. We had two tricky situations where young oak trees were basically swallowed up by crepe myrtles. I wasn't sure anyone could get rid of the crepe myrtles without hurting the oaks, but these guys did so perfectly. We worked with Pedro, who was reasonably quick to respond with a quote, easy to communicate with regarding scheduling, and quite fastidious about the work. Pedro even helped my husband fix his chain saw while he was on site, which was very kind. Their bids were definitely lower than some folks who provided an estimate. When I calculate the number of guys that came out and the number of hours they worked, I think Gilbert's pricing was more than fair. Gilbert's has all the necessary licenses and insurance, so you don't have to worry about being on the hook if a tree falls on your neighbor's car or something. Thankfully, Gilbert's is also good at what they do, so all our trees went exactly where they were supposed to. read more

They did a great job, and Pedro, my main contact, was very kind and helpful. I wanted to have some branches trimmed from my fan palm tree and it was only $35 - very cheap! There were some minor problems that I don't care about, but others might. First, when setting an appointment for the estimate. We agreed on a date and general time, and they said they would call me 1 hour before they showed up, but they did not, and called me when they were already at my house. I was still at work at the time because I was expecting a call. Luckily, my gate was unlocked anyway for another project and they went in and looked and gave me an estimate over the phone. Second, after the estimate, they said they would call me the next day to schedule the trimming, but did not call me until 4 days later. I was not in a rush so no big deal, but may be a problem for someone that wanted it done ASAP. Third, we agreed that Pedro would come out around 5 or 6 to collect payment, but he never came or called. Despite these minor problems, the service was nice, showed up to trimmed my tree as agreed upon, and cheap. I would recommend their services to anyone. read more

Great work, fast, honest, & reasonable pricing. Jorge and his crew were on time and finished cutting down the trees around my house in one day. They also fixed the fence in the backyard. Gilbert's Tree Service offer many other services & I will definitely use them again in the future. read more

Pedro and his crew did a great job, was fast, communicative, and very reasonably priced relative to the other vendors I talked to in Houston. He removed a tree which was putting a crack in my patio and trimmed the less problematic trees in my yard. He also did a small amount of landscaping which including disposing of leftover lawn ornaments from the house's prior owner, and trimming back some of the brush. The biggest job was pulled out the rusted metal patio trim which lined my garden, and replaced it with fresh bent metal trim. The speed of which he was able to get in and finish the work was important since I was on a timeline to put my house up for sale. He supported the dates I asked for, and was very careful to clean up the space so it was ready to show. Overall, I was very happy with his service. read more

Gilbert's Tree Service performed outstanding work at a very reasonable price. I called five tree services for estimates on the removal of three enormous fifty-foot trees; two dying sycamores, with huge, dead branches hanging over my house and my neighbors house, and an oak leaning over my garage. Two services never called me back. Two could not come out for several weeks. Pedro at Gilbert's Tree Service came to my home within a couple of days. He was pleasant and knowledgeable and gave me an estimate that was so reasonable that I called the other two services and cancelled their appointments. Gilbert's has all the professional equipment and crew needed to get the job done safely and efficiently. They arrived when they said they would and completed the work in one day. They neatly cleaned the yard and driveway of tree debris. Even the curb and street looked like they had been swept. As they were packing-up their equipment my neighbors were coming out to get their contact information. I would use Gilbert's Tree Service again and absolutely recommend them. read more

Pedro and his team have worked for us for many years. They trim our trees and shrubs, clean out our flower beds seasonally, and install landscaping and mulch. We have found them to be honest, dependable, timely, and hard working. They do a great job, and we would highly recommend them. Also, they are a Heights owned and operated business. read more

I wish I'd been one of the people Pedro didn't follow up with, like so many other reviewers, and that we'd gone with another company. Unfortunately, after standing us up twice, we decided to be understanding and do business with Gilbert's Tree Service. We figured, it's tough times for everyone right now. They. Were. Terrible. The day after they did the job, a branch from the tree they'd serviced crashed onto my wooden fence, forcing us to replace the fence prematurely. To make matters worse, the cost of wood is about 30% higher than pre-Covid right now. Don't hire these guys. ZERO STARS. read more

Had this business considerably trim a tall tree and they did so at a VERY competitive price - which was a no brainer for me since what they did was definitely not something i could have done with even a couple buddies helping me all day. Great crew - friendly, safety conscience, with the right equipment. They even removed a small dead tree along the road by my home at no cost. read more

We have contracted with Gilbert Tree Service for lawn care/maintenance and they've done a great job for several months. Based on that we asked them to put in a gravel/paver pathway, a small patio, pad for our trash cans and replace sod in our yard. The Gilbert crew did a fantastic job! The work was superb and crew did the work quickly, efficiently and cleaned up carefully after. The estimate was reasonable and everything was installed exactly as we agreed. I would gladly recommend Gilbert Tree Service to anyone seeking expert lawn care and landscaping services. read more

I am disappointed that I am among the reviewers where Pedro was a no-show for an appointment. I texted him but no response. A text or a courtesy call would have been appreciated. read more

Pete and his crew have been doing work for me for around 20 years. I recently moved and sadly I will NEVER LET HIM TOUCH MY YARD AGAIN. I had recently gotten a divorce and had brought a house in Oak Forest. The backyard was not level, pot holes and drainage issues. The house came with a sprinkler system and drains but the yard was holding water when it rain and when it didn't the sprinkler system didn't work. We focus on the back half where I originally saw the standing water. I told Pete I didn't have a lot of money to spare but I have dogs and was having a doggie door put in and didn't want mud in the house. I also asked him to trim the trees. He gave me a price and I went with it. It took them several trips out to do what he said he would do. And his nephew came and worked on the sprinkle system which was not working. It rained in-between all of this and I noticed I had at least two inches of water standing on the front half of my backyard, not where the drains were or where we had focused. I called him to let him know. He came out I pointed out the oak tree in the front yard still had lots of dead wood on it. As we talked about the backyard I said "We both focused on the back instead of the whole yard. I needed your input about everything that needed to be done." To be fair I did point out the pot holes in the front part but told him to just filled them but soon so that the grass would be strong by the time I moved in. I did not know and was trusting his judgement to say it very unleveled and needs to be raised. He did say he would fit it and make it right and would handle the tree. He never did. The sprinkler stopped working so I called him and told him the grass was going to die because the sprinkler wasn't working. If the grass died then when it rains mud. Pete never returned my calls nor did he handle the pot holes or the oak tree. I called several times and no response. Finally what I didn't want to happen happened my dogs somehow got the cover on the couch halfway off and got mud on all my new furniture. Pete today responded to a text I wrote about my upset with his lack of work. He blames me for focusing on the back of the yard and believes I was happy because I paid him. I paid him because my history with him was that if there was a problem he would fix it and make it right. He is a small business owner and it had been several weeks so I thought he could use the cash and we could resolve any problem. BOY WAS I EVER WRONG. And as a side note the back area still holds some water just not as much as it did before. This is very hard for me to write this review since Pete has always been so good to me and my family with his work and price. NO MORE!!! Now he wants to raise his voice at me and tell me he did his job when in fact he didn't. Even if you don't consider the front half of the yard he NEVER CAME BACK AND FILLED THE HOLES IN NOR REMOVE ALL THE DEAD WOOD FROM THE OAK TREE, HE SIMPLY DIDN'T DO WANT HE SAID WHICH WAS HE WOULD MAKE IT RIGHT. read more

These guys did an excellent job trimming 3 trees that hang over our property. They had the best price and did a great job. They were able to trim parts of trees that I would not think that they could reach but they did it anyway. We are very happy with the service and we highly recommend them. read more

Great customer service! From setting an appointment for a quote estimate to finishing the job. These guys work safe and fast! I am a customer for life! Feels good to find a trustworthy company who is fair with service rates and honest with the customer. Thank you so much! read more

These guys were great. I got 3 different quotes, and these guys were competitive, and I felt most comfortable with them. They did a REALLY good job - arrived on time, knew what they were doing, and even went beyond what we agreed on (ex. cut branches from other tress that were hanging on our property). read more

I was very impressed with the work that Pedro and his team did at my house. They trimmed our sad looking palm tree as well as took down a branch that was on our roof from a neighbor's tree. The service Pedro provided was not only professional, but efficient. They were done within a couple hours and didn't leave a spec of palm tree debris in our backyard with our tree looking like new again. In fact they left the yard nicer then it was before they started the work. Pedro also provided clear communication throughout the process from the initial phone call to the estimate of work and completion. I will be sure to contact Pedro again for all my landscaping needs. read more

I called for a quote on weekly lawn service. I was told that I would get a call to set up a quote. Pedro called back and said he'd be out late that afternoon and would text when he arrived. No call and no text. I texted his number at 7pm, to see if he was still coming. No answer. I called the office back the next day. They said that Pedro would call me. No call a week+ later. They must be too busy for customer service. read more

This company is great. Pedro and the group are superstars. They always showed up fast and on time, did the job right, cleaned up thoroughly, and are all extremely nice...all around pleasant and friendly group of people. Our job was a small one but that did not slow things down at all. They passed on a lot of knowledge about the impact their work would have on the look of the trees as they grow, offering advice when asked. I'll be using them from now on for sure. read more

After getting several bids to trim my large magnolias and elms, it became quickly apparent that Pedro and his team were up for the job. Pedro arrived the morning after my call to give an estimate and it became very clear that he has been doing this for awhile. His quote was on the lower side of proposals I received but what impressed me most was his ability to listen during the quote process. Once I awarded the job, he arrived with his crew, trucks, grinder, and chainsaws and they made quick work (3 hrs) out of what some of his competitors thought would be a full day job. What is also useful is that Pedro was there to oversee the job and if his team wasn't sure about a particular limb, they would stop and ask. They even found a spot high on my roof that had been worn by a limb and helped me patch it with tar. Oh, and my yard looked as if it had been manicured before they left. Pedro has a great team, the equipment to get any job done, and puts the customer first. We will be using Gilbert again for our yard full of trees. read more

These guys are great. Ask for Pedro. I like that he'll communicate via text message. We needed improperly planted oak trees removed and new appropriate trees planted as a replacements. He sent me pictures of holly trees from the nursery via MMS. Saves me time. Time savings makes me happy. His team was professional, on time, in uniform, and did all the removal and plantings perfectly. All items moved out of the way were re-planted and seem to be well rooted again. Overall, happy with the service and the price. read more

Pedro and his team did a remarkable job trimming our giant green ash tree! Professional, quick, insured, and fairly priced - couldn't have asked for more! read more
