    Very responsive leading up to the job and superb work day of. I had four fox tail palms that needed to be removed. The tricky part, I'm in a townhouse complex and the outdoor areas of three other units are very close by. Not only did they have the trees removed quickly, they paid close attention to to try to minimize saw debris from getting into the neighbors' spaces. The entry way to my yard wasn't able to accommodate the stump grinder they had with them but they'll be able to do that with a different grinder another time. I'm thankful to have found them

    Clean area and no stump visible

    Thank you Ruben and crew for your excellent service. Amazing customer service and communication. I contacted Island Trees for a very large tree with massive roots. I had a flyer from him from a while ago. Ruben responded almost immediately and provided me with quotes shortly after and the appointment was within the week. I went for the trimming, hauling and grinding of this massive tree. A very reasonable price. He arrived on time and everyone was so professional and friendly. He even removed 2 monkey tree stumps. I have a few more small trees and I will contact him again. I appreciate your expertise Ruben.

    Let's say 4.5 Stars! Ruben and his crew are excellent. We literally have a forest of trees and have no doubt we will be using their services for years to come. We had four very large, eucalyptus and ironwood trees either trimmed or removed recently and the most important thing to me was that they did the job safely and handled themselves professionally. The terrain on our property is not easy, it is mostly slope, but they were able to handle the job well and asked a fair price for the work. They even worked in nasty, rainy conditions for two days in a row and did so with good attitude. We loved that they had a chipper and could spray the chips where we wanted them onto our property. Our neighbor was a little less thrilled about this since some of the dust traveled to his freshly washed car, but for us this was a great benefit. We did have a fair amount of damage to the surrounding vegetation, mailbox, patio stones, and rock wall afterwards and this was really unfortunate (thus hard to give 5 stars). Some of the monstera plants are only now coming back after several months. Some of my beautiful plants are just gone. Perhaps it was a case of miscommunication or maybe it was unavoidable, either way, we worked out a solution for us to replace some of the damaged palms by subtracting reasonable amounts from the final invoice total. I think some damage is to be expected considering the terrain and the amount of material that is being removed. Ruben provided a quick estimate of the cost, showed up and got to work on time every day, and invoiced promptly. They left no garbage around, which seems to happen a lot with other workers. Very professional crew. I can wholeheartedly recommend Island Trees for jobs large and small.

    Hau tree after they trimmed it.

    Paid $1200 to cut down and remove a traveler palm tree and to trim a Hau tree and song of India hedge. On the positive side they showed up on time (15 minutes early), the work was done quickly, and most of the branches and leaves were removed. On the negative side they did not let us know when they arrived and when they were done and leaving. I was shocked to see people moving around in our back yard and jumping over our concrete wall. Also we did not have an opportunity to look over with them what was done before they left. They decided to gain access to our property by climbing over our back yard concrete wall and the workers trampled on our plants. We would have moved the plants if we were told that they were going to jump over the wall. Here are a few photos of our Hau tree after they trimmed it.

    Ruben was very responsive and came out for an estimate the very same day that the work was requested. Price was best of 4 contractors, and job was scheduled only a few days later. Ruben and his crew showed up on time and completed the job (trim back a Tecoma tree and remove an overgrown Papaya tree) estimated for 3 hours in only 1! Great work done quickly and exactly as requested. Only drawback was some damage to plants under the tree and lots of debris left when crew was done. I guess to be expected when they completed job so quickly! Will definitely be calling back again for any future tree trimming needs.

    Amazing tree removal experience…read more We had to take out a couple of Italian Cyprus trees which were close to affecting the power-lines. One tree was dead, the others were showing signs of age and a large root was growing towards the house. That, coupled with overgrown grass/weeds from recent rains was creating a nightmare scenario. Afraid the trees might topple onto our house we decided the time had come to remove the trees and give the yard a haircut. Out of a couple of estimates we received, Espitia's Tree Service answered my quote request in a timely manner, was able to promptly come by to make an assessment and proposal. The yard service was included as well as stump/removal. Alejandro explained the process, the options and time table. He kept us in the loop and I was quickly informed when timing had shifted a bit because a prior project was taking longer than expected. Work was done in a timely manner, the fear of trees toppling over no longer an issue. They removed the stumps and a large root that was growing in the direction of the house. Again to reiterate, Communication was great, proposal was clear, the cost reasonable, and the work was done in a timely manner. If tree removal or pruning is in your future, Espitia's Tree Service should be contacted for a proposal.

    I had my tangerine and marungay tree trimmed by them and they did an outstanding job, listened…read morecarefully to what I wanted done and were able to trim branches on both trees without them littering my neighbors side of the fence. They trimmed several feet off the top of my tangerine tree so I can reach the fruit easier now. They did not massacre my tangerine tree like a previous tree trimmer did years ago and it is already putting out new happy leaves and looks healthy. They also hauled away all the leaves and branches and gave me the marungay leaves as I requested so I could give them to friends and neighbors and their price was reasonable, they came on time and finished in the estimated time they gave me. What stood out to me about them is they care about the health of your tree.
