I have used Lopez Tree Services every couple of years for the last seven years to trim back the over growth of trees, bushes and vines on our property. Once again, Arturo Lopez came to our home soon after I contacted him to get an appraisal. The price was reasonable and we set a date. When his team arrived, they were professional and thorough and did the yard work in a timely manner. As always they did excellent work and the follow through in cleanup was great. I would definitely recommend their services. read more

Arturo's Tree service does a great job at what I think is a reasonable price. His crew thinned out a two Chinese Elms, so they look great now, trimmed & shaped my lemon tree, took out a very large volunteer Camphor tree & some fig plants, removed a dead camphor tree and trimmed all the trees & bushes that hung over from my neighbors yard. His crew did this in just a few hours on a very hot day and cleaned up everything perfectly. This is the third time I've used Arturo's services and I couldn't be happier. read more

Even though I have not yet directly hired Lopez Tree Service, I can already tell they are top-notch. I became acquainted with them by overwhelming recommendation through my fellow Altadenian neighbors on a private FB group thousands of us are part of. Lopez was consistently ranked as the #1 arborist. I dealt with Arturo, who I presume is the owner, and throughout the course of about 2 weeks, he was professional, courteous, reasonable and highly prompt with communications. Even when I informed him that I awarded the job to another contractor (soley as a result of cost), Arturo was gracious and understanding. Truly a gentleman to deal with and somebody I will keep in-mind for any future arborist or tree-related needs. read more

Lopez Tree Service removed limbs from an oak tree on property abutting my driveway. It parked its truck with wood chipper across my driveway apron. When I told the crew to move, they moved the equipment into the middle of the street and proceeded to grind up the tree limbs from there, effectively cutting off not just local traffic, but emergency (ambulance, fire, police) services to a neighborhood in Very High Fire Hazard Zone. Lopez put expediency (time and money) above the safety of people, including its client. read more

Arturo and his entire crew did a fantastic job for a very sad situation in Altadena. Many trees died recently after the Army Corps of Engineers debris removal last year, and in one day the guys were super friendly and professional cleaning up my lot from anything dead or burnt, even adding in weed abatement for my hillsides. It was sad to see more foliage leave, but honestly, the lot looks the best it has since all the buildings burnt down last year. I highly recommend Arturo and his crew. read more

I've had my large eucalyptus tree thinned three times by Lopez Tree Service, done every three years, so almost a decade now. I couldn't be happier with their work. The owner, Arturo Lopez, a certified arborist, does the on site assessment and gives the quote personally. I found this company through their excellent Yelp reviews, and I have not been disappointed. read more

I've worked with Arturo and his team for years now and I wouldn't use anyone else. They and responsive, professional, and do great work.

I have used Lopez Tree Service several times and they have always done excellent work. Arturo is communicative, professional, and dependable. He and his crew really care about our tree's aesthetic appearance and do a thorough clean-up when they have completed the job. read more

Arturo did an amazing job on multiple Chinese elm trees on my property, making sure to keep the beautiful canopy but also significantly lightning the load on the trees and keeping them healthy. Highly recommend Arturo and Lopez tree service. read more

We live in the Eaton burn zone in Altadena. This company just did a terrific job removing burnt trees and shrubs from our steep hillside. They did this quickly and efficiently. As a bonus, Arturo, the owner of the company, was a pleasure to deal with. We definitely would use Lopez Tree Service again, and highly recommend them. read more

Extremely professional from start to finish, very knowledgeable and highly experienced. Did a 100 stars deserving job. Quick, efficienT, complete clean. I would highly recommend them read more

Five star service!!! Met with Arturo from Lopez Tree Service. Had them remove a 30-foot tall pittosporum from my front yard. On Sunday half the tree had fallen down by itself. The tree was rotted at the base. On Monday I got city approval to remove the hazardous tree. On Tuesday the 4-man Lopez crew cut down the tree in parts, carefully roping them off to the ground. A wood chipper was used to cut up the logs. A grinder then moved in to remove the stump. All done in about 2-3 hours! Amazing work. read more

This was my y first time using Lopez Tree Service. Great customer service and very responsive.

Oops, why haven't I left a review for them? They come out and trim up the trees every other year for the last 10 years. They do a wonderful job. Professional and SAFE! I have a corner lot that is lined with ficus. They do a beautiful job trimming and thinning it out. I also have a bunch of palm trees and bougainvillea. They are in high demand because they do such great and trustworthy work. if they don't get back to you right away, give him a couple of days. He will call back and get you a quote. The whole crew wears safety gear! My kids are mesmerized when the guys climb the palm trees and the pine trees without a ladder! I recommend them to anyone who needs tree service! read more

Lopez Tree Service - Very SAFE, neat and clean. They always cover up areas with tarp so nothing gets damaged. - Landscaping Near Me - Altadena , California

My oaks needed an overdue trim and I'm happy to report that my trees look great. The crew came on time and left the driveway clean of leftover branches. Arturo is very reachable through his cellphone and prompt to answer any questions. Without hesitation, I'll hire them again for tree service. Thanks again Arturo, Marcos and the rest of the crew at Lopez Tree Service. :) read more

I've used Lopez Tree Service several times over the last decade+, most recently about a month ago. I had a tree that was growing against the side of the house and over the roof; a rogue tree in the front that was out of control - ruining my fence and hanging over my neighbor's yard, and encroaching on my roof. I decided to have it removed, it's always been a problem, and I will replant that area with succulents. My ancient persimmon tree still produces and has beautiful fall leaves but branch by branch it's getting weak (I can relate, some of my branches are getting a bit wonky as I head toward my 77th birthday). They trimmed it perfectly and followed my request that they make sure one area of the mulberry tree was still close enough to the persimmon tree that the squirrels could jump from one to the other (they have a picnic table on a branch in the persimmon tree where I attach dried corn on the cob and they pick the kernels off while sitting on the picnic table). I also advised them that I was getting the entire outside of the house painted soon so they made sure all the trees next to the house were cut back far enough for the painters. They were meticulous about clean-up (and even removed an extra pile of leaves and branches left by my gardener because there wasn't enough room in my yard waste bin, and he was planning to put the extra in next week's pick-up). Also, they called to let me know that their crew had finished another job early in the day and they could come in the afternoon a day early - perfect! Total of 5 guys over a period of three hours, and done perfectly. Years ago I used to get nervous that other plants might be damaged, I couldn't watch without stressing out but it was always done well, and I realized I can count on their precision and professionalism. The cost was reasonable and I knew I would get detailed, impeccable service. There is one tree that makes me think of them when I look at it - it was a "free" tree, appeared out of nowhere and grew quickly and close to the house. They trimmed/removed the branches that were continually reaching for the house several visits ago, and it has maintained its distance from the corner of the house (now it just reaches for the sky). A great family business with a dedicated crew who work well together . Arturo is attentive, precise, and dependable and always communicative and available immediately by phone if he is off the premises and there is a question. Ha ha, I see an automated comment below my review that says "this review is looking 'pretty epic!' Nice!" - hmmm...is AI trying to tell me I talk too much? read more

I'm going to edit this review tomorrow because I finally found the correct contact info for the horrible arborist (inexpensive tree services; Phone: (323) 833-7002; Email: itreeservice@yahoo.com) who dumped their garbage in my mother's yard but I want to amend this and say that most of the gardeners and nurseries I've chatted with in Altadena about my issue have had nothing but positive things to say about Lopez Tree Services. It would be amazing if the owners of Lopez divest their energy and services away from Chipdrop in solidarity with all the people that the company has screwed over. My mother and I will have lasting health problems due to the negligence and nonchalance of #chipdrop and I hope enough people get fed up to do something other than post about it on Reddit or report it to the BBB who had done nothing to address the problem. -- THIS ISN'T A REVIEW ABOUT LOPEZ TREE SERVICES DIRECTLY BUT RATHER A SERVICE THEY PARTICIPATE IN CALLED ( https://my.getchipdrop.com/home/ ). #Chipdrop (@chipdrop) doesn't have a page here so I'll just write my review here in the hopes that they see this or that Lopez can escalate this to their digital overlord. For Fre 99 you too can also have black mold infest your lungs and all you get is a "refund" and an emailed link to a lazy ass Terms and Expectations page written by an underpaid attorney on LegalZoom. My almost 80-year-old mother and I had to clean almost 30/40 "cubic yards" of mulch, trash, orange vests, soda cans, pizza boxes, wet palm branches woven around unusable mulch powder-blue from mold, mycelium, and other nasty fungus growing in the untreated mound the just unload in your driveway. AVOID THESE SCAMMERS LIKE THE PLAGUE. Sometimes it's better to pay your little money and know you're not cleaning up someone else's unprofessional, unimaginative, mediocre, stupidly executed "business plan". I'm all for regenerative agriculture but the owner needs to hire a business strategist because that is not his strong suit. Put a pause and go back to school. Preferably the University of Pennsylvania if you can hack it. This is a remedial company probably funded by Daddy just like all the other "unicorn" start-ups and their lack of foresight in addressing the HARM their business are actually doing to citizens and the large community they are functioning in. They're like a dollar store version of uber, lyft, turo and airbnb. read more

Arturo and his team are fantastic. We had quite a bit of tree damage from the windstorm that accompanied the Eaton fire. Arturo came out the same day I called him to give us an estimate for the work (3 trees to be removed and 1 to have some broken limbs removed). He then had a team out the day after we approved the quote to do the work. They were incredibly fast - it just took them a few hours - and also very nice and professional. They left the yard looking better than when they arrived, and even cut the trunks into firewood-sized sections for our fireplace. The cost was a great deal, especially given the fast response and high quality of the work. I highly recommend them! read more

I have been using Lopez for 15 years. They are very professional and have always done a quality job. Arturo and his team are also very knowledgeable about not only trees but also the requirements of my city, San Marino. They understand the limits of how much to prune to not only deliver a pleasing shape but also to ensure the health of the tree. read more

The lovely old acacia tree shading the front of my house had reached the end of its lifespan and needed to come down. A local arborist recommended Lopez Tree Service. Arturo gave us a straightforward estimate of the cost of the work, and helped us select a new tree to plant in front of our house for future generations to enjoy. He kindly went out of his way to help us out when the city OKed a temporary No Parking zone but wouldn't provide me with the actual No Parking signs to reserve space for his equipment. On the day of the job, his crew nailed it on all counts: they were on time, professional in all respects, and did a great job at removing the tree, planting the new one in just the right spot, and cleaning up the site. They provided me with watering advice to help the new tree establish itself. I'd call on Lopez Tree Service again without hesitation. Thanks, Arturo! read more

Arturo and his crew were awesome. The recent rains caused one of our ancient oaks to become unstable and endanger our house. Arturo arranged his crew's schedule and showed up the next day to remove the tree. His crew was polite, professional and neat.

We wanted our trees cut down away from power lines and off our house. And a large palm tree cut down in the backyard. All in all they did a good job and the price was fair for the services. My only issue was I recalled the clean up was included and it wasn't. And we still have some branches too close to the power lines. So that was frustrating. It's always hard when the person who you connect with and confirm your expectations with isn't there to do the work and supervise. And then they say we couldn't do that or I didn't say that. So I would definitely recommend this company! But maybe get all the details in writing. read more

I trusted Lopez Tree Service with a huge, beloved tree in my front yard. They trimmed it with expertise and a lot of care. Arturo listened to what I wanted and gave me his professional opinion in a helpful and very knowledgeable way. Arturo's crew wore safety gear and did a great job cleaning up the yard afterward. I am very happy with their work. I highly recommend Lopez Tree Service -- we will use them again. (And if you need mulch -- we got a great chip drop from Lopez Tree Service two years ago.) read more

After giving us a reasonable quote, on 10/28/24, Lopez Tree Service trimmed our Pecan tree. The owner, Arturo, is very professional. They arrived on time, prepped the area including covering our solar panels with plywood and got to work. The were quick and left our roof and yard very clean. They even made sure the gutters were clear where they had worked. Our tree looks fantastic. read more

Fabulous. We reached out to them in the morning and they quickly replied. We sent them a photo of our trees and they were able to give us a quote. They then came with a full crew later that same day to trim. All the guys wore protective gear. A very needed thing during our pandemic. They worked extremely hard and cleaned up the cuttings. We can't say enough how happy we are with Lopez Tree Service. Professional, efficient and reasonable. They are now our forever tree service company. read more

Alturo seemed like a very professional guy so we hired to cut our trees $4000k. They did an ok job but the pine trees permanently stained our concrete driveway as they were piled high before they placed in the truck. Rookie mistake. The big problem came when my neighbors said they suspected them of backing into their gate. Basically Arturo stormed my house frantic, angry in a rage. I tried to close the gate but he pushed his way through. Very scary / I almost had to call the police. Sad to do that to a single women - beyond unprofessional! read more

Lopez Tree Service did a great job trimming our Oak tree. The team came out and in less than 1/2 a day they were able to prune our tree.

I have trusted my mature trees to Arturo Lopez for years. He has trimmed my giant deodar with an expert and restrained touch. He will honestly tell you if it's the wrong time of year or if something doesn't need pruning. Arborists are hard to find--& expensive. Lopez is a great one. read more

I hired Lopez Tree Service on a Tuesday morning. I had been messaging back-and-forth with the company for about 2 weeks as I was gathering estimates. The responses were always prompt. We had a large, overgrown sycamore that was in desperate need of pruning. That morning, I asked again about their availability for the week, and was told that he and another worker could be at my home within 1-2 hours. José and another gentleman arrived exactly on time. They carefully backed their large truck and chipper down our driveway and began unloading equipment and assessing the tree immediately. José was informative, offered suggestions for the pruning, and listened to my concerns before the work began. During the work, both men were meticulous. At no time were branches strewn about our yard, nor was there any debris for more than 5 minutes. As soon as José cut down a branch from up high, the other gentleman would position in into the chipper and rake up the small bits. Sometimes, it even looked as though Jose was cutting the branches so that they would land a certain way to make it easier for his partner below! Another thing they did that I appreciated--they ran the chipper only when it was full. I'm sure this was done to reduce the wear on the machine, but I appreciated that I and my neighbors didn't have to listen to the chipper running for a solid hour. I was very impressed with the cleanliness and efficiency with which these two men worked. Lopez Tree Service was at my home for 2-3 hours. They trimmed and pruned our overgrown sycamore for a total of $525. Both workers were clean, efficient, safe, and thorough. José was especially helpful in discussing the options and concerns. Our yard was left cleaner than when the workers arrived, and our tree (though very bare now) is healthy again. Overall, I am very satisfied with Lopez Tree Service, and I look forward to hiring them next year to prune our sycamore again. read more

We contacted Lopez Tree Service after getting a recommendation from a coworker and are we glad we did! We had a camphor tree that was too close to the house and needed to be removed, a dead trunk that needed to be removed, and a couple of trees that were hanging over the fence and needed to be trimmed (especially a huge ash tree that was looking scary during heavy winds). We met with Arturo who was able to give us an estimate within minutes, which was very competitive. It's clear that safety is a priority, and we liked that they are arborists in addition to being licensed and insured (liability and worker's comp). The ash tree now looks tamed--well-shaped and thinned, without looking hacked--and is inside our yard. The avocado tree looks nice, neat and not bugging the neighbors. The dead tree trunk is gone and the camphor tree looks as if were never there at all. The crew showed up on time, were quick, polite, and left the yard clean and neat. We liked that the crew was large enough to ensure the job was done safely and efficiently (half a day!) and appreciated the extra effort to protect the yard. There was no "collateral damage," as would be expected, things just looked better and we couldn't be happier. We highly recommend them and will use them again! read more
