We have lots of huge trees on our property and have had many companies trim our trees over the years but I have to say, hands down, Jerry's Tree Service was the best experience yet. After getting several estimates my neighbor told me how they had used Jerry's through the years and have always been happy. I called them and they gave me an estimate which came in lower than the other companies. They came on time and took thorough steps to protect our property from any falling branches etc (measures that went beyond what other companies have done). The owners are three brothers Jerry, Miguel and Lalo and all of whom are very cheerful and know their stuff. One or two of them stayed to oversee everything and make sure it was done to our liking (and they brought an ample crew to get the job done in one day). At one point a branch fell and broke a floodlight that was up in one of the trees and at the end of the day I asked my husband to make sure he gave them a new lamp to screw in before they took down their ladders. He found out Jerry had already gone out and bought a new lamp and replaced it! (before we even asked about it!) Now that's service. Afterward they completely cleaned up, put all the patio furniture back to our specifications and left everything super clean. Plus the trees look spectacular! The crew was delightful, English was no problem and they are fully insured. I will be using them from now on! read more

I have an eighty year old magnificent pine tree in my back yard, giving shade to my back deck, and part of my roof and shelter to birds and animals. It was full, healthy and thick throughout. Our work proposal stated that Jerry's would comply with ANSI A300, which sets forth professional standards for pruning. ANSI A300 specifically provides that lion's tailing - the removal of an excessive number of inner, lateral branches from parent branches - is not an acceptable pruning practice. I told him to cut 30% of the tree maximum. He ignored that agreement. Before the work started, I also emailed Jerry's to advise him that he should "avoid, completely, 'lion's-tailing,'" and other over-cutting practices. Jerry's failure to comply with ANSI A300 damaged the function and aesthetics of the tree. He stripped it out. He used "lions tailing" extensively, and this was confirmed by the arborist that I consulted. He cut limbs that I told him not to. My shade is gone and may never return. Jerry's damaged the appearance, function and aesthetics of the tree. read more

Jerry's tree service didn't perform their job safely on Ocean Park. They didn't block the sidewalk so people were walking through the discarded palm fronds. Hope they have great insurance, I see a public injury lawsuit in their future. I called & left a message and never heard back. read more

They slaughtered healthy mature OAK trees that were over 100 years old to enhance the views for a developer. They completely removed the upper canopy which no doubt will lead to the death of the oaks and animals that lived there. Their workers are NOT tree professionals and completely lack tree knowledge. They are a hack job company that lacks morals. They should brand themselves the oak tree killers because that's what they look like and are really good at. It's all about the dollar for them. read more

Can't say much for his crews tree trimming expertise, but I can say his crew today hadno problem with reckless driving. At 430 pm today their truck/trailer mounted grinder entered the freeway, 405 south off Culver Blvd. The driver not only cut off cars with right of way at the on ramp but drove within 3 feet of their bumpers. After traffic merged, he drove on the right hand shoulder and after 300+ feet of travel, physically forced cars to make way for him.... emergency collision avoidance required by vehicles... In short, he placed people's lives and property at risk.... Just before the 90/405 interchange. Retired trucker here..... Guy shouldn't have a license. read more

I'm surprised to read the negative reviews - i don't doubt them and cringe when i read them, but they are not our experience have used them at least 6 or 7 times. They have been prompt, professional, clean up well, and are well supervised. Pricing for any tree service has gone up a lot lately and they are no exception. I would say the are not arborists - hence 4 stars, not 5 - but if you know what you want them to do, they do it with great care. I've already got them on my calendar again for this spring. read more

These guys climbed onto our property and cut down bamboo tips since the breeze was blowing them over the fence. Destroyed 30 foot tall bamboo trees which will never look or grow natural again. These guys are hacks and from the reviews I see I'm not the only one's to notice. They do not care about trees, they care only about a paycheck. read more

Jerry's missed a confirmed appointment and never called to reschedule and then ignored multiple text messages trying to reschedule. Glad I learned how unreliable they are before I actually hired them! read more

Wow what a bunch of jerks, cut off my neighbor in his car while they were driving out by me to give me an estimate Super high estimates dont use read more

As for too many people in Southern California, our property took a substantial hit with the recent Woolsey fires and we found ourselves in a situation where at least a dozen trees had to come down including a row of mature eucalyptuses. Jerry showed up on a Saturday morning with 23 workers, 7 trucks, two trailers and a chipper shredder and attacked the property with such gusto and such professionalism, I was blown away. No task was too much, no tree too tall, no damage too daunting. After putting in a 10 hour day they cleaned up the property impeccably and told me they needed to put another five hours in the next day to clear the last stumps and do a final cleaning. It's rare to see such a professional who brings first class inventory to a project, an army of loyal men and tremendous knowhow. Jerry's got a client for life in us. read more

The Driver that serviced around Granada Hills on Oct 14 around noon was so Aggressive. Kept honking and was giving an aggressive look. Would not recommend. You need a friendly tree service? Look elsewhere. read more

They have a lot of new nice shiny trucks which is clearly why their costs are higher than anybody else. It is a question of style too -- if you want a fast hack these guys though overpriced are fine. If you want tree service and care, look elsewhere For tree trimming -- they hack the trees more than needs and rush through the job with no care. They dont use cranes or ladders and essentially hack the trees instead of protecting them. The same week our trees which are mature glorious trees were being cut (essentially hacked the branches at random never getting to the top down approach) the property across the way was having their mature trees trimmed. Style wise the other property still looks like their trees are still resembling nice trees. read more

They service/cut/trim the trees at the complex where I live. They also used do the landscaping here. The guys know what they're doing and are very efficient. However, I'm demoting a star for the Peeping Tom employee they hired who's name starts with a "V" who did the landscaping every week. "V" was always climbing trees, sitting on the ledges and getting on the roof looking through the windows and skylights of my house and a few other women. Pervert ! Perhaps the company didn't know-guess it wasnt' their fault. I give the company props because when I complained to the HOA here about him, Jerry''s Tree Service fired "V". Good riddance "V"... You messed with the wrong chick this time !!! Have never had a problem with any of the other gentlemen-totally professional. read more

They did an outstanding job on our sycamores. The trees were thinned out and look so much better. The team was very professional and careful. Highly recommended. read more

You know that driver on the freeway who weaves in and out of lanes, accelerates to cut you off, then jumps back out of the lane because the lane next to it is one car faster? Yeah, that guy might just be Jerry's Tree Service. Don't care if he's a great arborist - he's a real d!ck on the road. He might be nice to your face, but know he gives zero F's about anyone else on the road. Real nice guy, that Jerry. read more

These people are a bunch of crooks. They are come into my yard twice without permission to cut the neighbor's trees. They have destroyed my garden. They stomped on my plants, left leaves all over my yard. They are horrible. read more

Outstanding tree trimmers. They were able to trim my trees correctly without upsetting the neighbors. I have a very difficult neighbor so believe me it's a big accomplishment. Very professional crew and charged a fair price. I'll be using them now going forward. read more

I asked my client who is an arborist for a recommendation for a company who can prune our 20 year old Cottonwood. This was the first time we had it pruned so it was long overdue. He recommended Jerry's Tree Service, and he uses them for his business as well. My husband and I were very happy with their work. They showed up earlier than scheduled (which worked out well for us) to make sure they had the right house, etc. Vidal's nephew and another employee came to do the job. They shaped the tree very nicely considering how much had to be removed. We also asked them to remove a Yucca plant. They promptly did both jobs and left leaving the grounds looking tidy. I would use them again in a heartbeat. Their fee was very reasonable as well. read more

Jerry and his crew are the best. We've had several companies out to trim our trees and high hedges over the years but were never completely satisfied. I saw Jerry's truck down the street in front of a prominent neighbors house and thought if he used this company maybe I should give them a try. Jerry came out as scheduled to find out what we wanted done and gave an estimate which was quite reasonable compared to some others. He and his crew arrived at the appointed day and time and Jerry explained to his crew what needed to be done before he left. The supervisor who stayed and the rest of the crew know how to trim trees properly. Not too little, not too much. We've never had such a good job done. Extremely pleased. We will stick with Jerry's Tree Service. I just noticed that I am writing a review very similar to Martha C.'s. Just goes to show you that these guys are that good. read more

recommended by friends, called them repeatedly, left detailed messages, never heard back.....NEXT!

Well, I don't actually know how good the tree trimming is, because Jerry flaked on both appointments that I made to come and give me an estimate- The first missed appointment I was willing to give the benefit of the doubt and try again, the second appointment we had made by text, so I have it all confirmed on my phone- I texted him the day of, after he hadn't shown up by the appointment time to ask if he was still coming, and he never even bothered to respond! So rude, and a total waste of my time. read more

We have used multiple tree services over the years for brush clearance. We keep coming back to Jerry's. He is a licensed arborist, which is really important when dealing with oaks. He is a professional - he is well-insured. And he has a real eye for aesthetics - not just for the tree as it is cut today, but how the tree will grow in over the next 12-24 months so that it looks nice all the way until the next trimming. Jerry is like a great barber - he knows how to give the trees a cut so they look good all the way until the next cut - not just looking good when he is driving away. read more

I called this company for an estimate. I called at the scheduled appointment time to confirm. They said their estimator was in the area and should be there shortly or would call me (they took my number...again). They never called and never showed up. I spent the afternoon waiting and wondering. I called back several times but never got a live voice,. Is this town so big that services like this can just no-show, not call and STILL stay In business? I hope not. I'd like to think there are negative consequences for treatment as inconsiderate as this, read more
