The is the second time in 2 years that I had Lopez Tree Service trim a few large fruit trees on my property. I am very appreciative of the great job they have done both times. Their prices are very competitive and my trees look great. It is a family business, I was pretty specific about how about I wanted the trees shaped and they did it! They also cleaned everything thing up really well. Two of my trees had a ton of oranges and they picked them, as I requested so I had tons of fruit to give to my neighbors and family. Thank you Lopez Tree Service! read more

No question, Lopez Tree Service is now my go-to for all things tree. I hired Arturo and his team to cut down two trees and trim some very large branches from a pine that were growing close to our house. We were very concerned about how the team would ensure that no branches damaged our roof. However, after only a few minutes, I realized we had nothing to worry about. The guys are truly professional, highly skilled, and very efficient. Arturo was so on top of things from the first call to the completion of the job. He even found a way to fit me into the schedule within a few days. The price was very reasonable, but the service was even better. I would recommend Lopez Tree Service without reservation! read more

We have been using Arturo of Lopez Tree Service for several years and are very happy with him and his team. We have many very large pine trees at our house and he keeps them beautiful and healthy.

Lopez Tree Service cut and oak tree that they weren't supposed to cut in my neighbors backyard and dropped large branches in my garden, ruining it. I contacted them and they told me to talk to my neighbor. I had a beautiful garden that I spent a lot of time in and now I had to salvage what I could and pull a lot of greens up read more

I would like to give a shout out to my neighbors about Lopez Tree Service. I have a lot of trees and they are both large and complicated. They are certified arborists as well. They run an amazing crew. They work hard and fast. They clean up better than they find it AND they do excellent work. Family business and ethical people. I cannot recommend them enough. Arturo does the quotes and his dad runs the crews. Arturo is at 626-217-8035 read more

Wife and I finally decided to get decomposed granite in our backyard so we called a few places and compared prices. Lopez Tree service asked for photos and measurements and was quick to come back with a reasonable price, so we asked them when we could start. Over a week goes by without a response so we contact them again and they ask for the same photos and measurements. Uhhhh... this should have been a red flag, but we March on. Wife resends the same info and again, no response. Another week goes by and I decide to message them directly. I politely ask them when we can expect to start the project and they finally tell me that it'll be on the week of the 23rd, or 3 additional weeks later. Great! So we wait. Three weeks go by and no response. So at the end of the 3rd week (5 weeks since the quote), I message him. No response. I then leave a voicemail, to which he starts messaging me about having delays, short staffed, coming across "many circumstances beyond their control,"etc etc etc. But here's the kicker he says "Honestly I don't have a contract with you I provided a cost over a text message I try and review my paperwork frequently to make sure I can keep contact with my customers I should have wrote a proposal and emailed and had you sign for approval so I can have it on my calendar and can follow up more frequent" Are you serious? You told us you were going to start on the week of the 23rd and the fact that you didn't write a contract for us, you didn't put us on your calendar and you failed to keep us posted is our fault??? Wow! So here's my takeaway from our experience with Lopez Tree Service, either bother them to write a contact for you at the start or go with another company that's more reliable and professional. You'll save the hassle of dealing with people that take no responsibility and you'll save yourself 5 weeks of waiting. read more

Great job by Arturo Sr. And his team. Good communication as to when the crew would show up at our house. Big crew hit the ground running and did a fantastic job. Price was half the quote of a competitor. Attached are some before and after shots of our oak tree. read more

If you value your relationship with your neighbors, stay away from them. They were trimming trees at our neighbor's that reached over to our yard. They did not announce themselves or take any precautions. We only noticed when large limbs came crashing down on our freshly planted flower beds. I talked to the guy about it and he said that this just happend when you trim trees because they don't work with helicopters. (apparently never heard to things like ropes and tarps) not even an apology When I asked for his name and license number he just ran away. (I got the info of his truck later) He refused to accept any responsibility and told me that I could sue him. read more

Did a great job to prune 4 large eucalyptus and 4 large toyon bushes (both in heavy need of pruning) in about 4 h total with a crew of 8 guys. read more

We had several other companies come out to give us a quote but Arturo was the only one that gave us an estimate that I felt was knowledgeable, informative and fair. He made us feel like truly valued customers even before work had even been scheduled. The work they did was excellent and very thoughtful. They took great care to protect our rose bushes from the falling limbs and branches and courteously addressed any concerns or questions I had throughout the entire process. I will definitely call on Lopez Tree Service again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for fair and expert tree service. read more

Lopez Tree Service just completed the trimming of the oaks in our backyard. There are six oaks that are huge and had grown over our home as well as neighbors. Arturo and his large crew showed up right on time and completed all the work in one day. They were very careful and even put tarps over our pond to keep branches out. They cleaned up completely. This is the second time we have used Lopez Tree Service and could not be happier. I would highly recommend. read more

Very happy with the trimming of our olive tree. After tree quotes, he was the most affordable. He cut our tree three weeks after estimate. We will call him again for our yearly trimming. read more

These guys are GREAT! Took special care to protect the plants in the yard before starting to trim our HUGE Italian Stone Pine. I was concerned about dripping sap and they placed tarps in our neighbors driveway. (I asked them to replace their tarps with mine before they left, as we know that sap happens) The crew cleaned up all the branches twigs and needles. I have used Lopez tree service every other year for the past 15 years. Arturo is an arborist; he knows what he's doing. read more

Wow what an easy experience. I reached out to 4-5 different tree service companies and Arturo got back to me first. I received several quotes and his was right along what other tree service companies quoted. I went with Arturo because he was, by far, the most high energy and professional of all the companies. His crew was efficient and thoughtful (they even put aside my sons' nerf darts as they found them in the trees). They did a great clean up of the site afterwards and my property looks great now! Thanks Arturo! read more

I called Lopez Tree Service and they were very fast to respond. Very good a communicating and answered all my questions. It was fast and reliable, I will use them again. Thank you Lopez Tree Service! read more

I've worked with Arturo for 3 seasons. The first two times, I was impressed with him and his crew. Quotes and jobs were easy to schedule, they did a great job on the tree trimmings. I've seen companies clean up palm trees, just letting the fonds fall on the ground. His team rappelled the fronds securely to the ground. They cleaned the place nicely upon leaving, were nice. Arturo showed up both times, I think, before leaving. Arturo is very nice and seems knowledgeable. This time was very different. I've put some thought into posting this review because it may have been an unfortunate occurence or we got the B team but I was encouraged to do so by friends as people should be aware of pros and cons before making the call. First of all, the process of getting Arturo to visit for a quote was long and frustrating. My husband and I both work and can't take time off at the last minute. We finally scheduled a visit and he didn't show up - glad I didn't take on my vacation time for that. When I contacted him the next day, he had lost my text and info. I tried to plan ahead, even asking to schedule something 2 weeks ahead of time if that could help everyone but he said to schedule that after the Thanksgiving week. Then he would call me, some day, asking if I was home so they could come. No, I was working. When we met, we talked about removing a palm tree. I asked if there would be damages to the wall of the house which is close, we had just finished repainting the house (it should have been done the other way around but again, it took a long time to schedule this work and we couldn't postpone the paint job). His answer was no, no damage. In the meantime, we decide to remove an old stump in the front yard as well, also close to the house. Several weeks later, we finally scheduled the work. It was trash day. The team arrived and put the bins in the parkway crushing small plants so they could park. I was not happy but didn't say a word. They looked at me dragging the bins out of the parkway, up to the driveway. We've had several workers at the house, painters and landscapers, the guys would drive the bins up the driveway without my asking, even when they didn't need the room to park. If you're not going to be that courteous, at least, ask the client to take care of the bins. Then one of the crew members started refilling the gasoline into the stump grinder tank, spilling all over the wall and driveway. Thankfully, the brick chimney took most of it. No wiping down, no cleaning, no sorry; I was right by him. Three hours later, they were done. The crew member who was giving directions to the team, and spoke the most English (although I try to speak Spanish too), asked me to quickly check the places where the palm tree was and then the stump in the front, adding to not worry, that they would blow the front porch since it was quite dusty. Plants were damaged, mind you, not where the guy told me it would happen, by the palm tree, they either lost limbs or were covered in new mulch. Sprinkler heads were buried under mulch too. I didn't say a thing, they had to maneuver their big machine in a tight area, with several plants (not your usual lawn), it was to be expected. Nevertheless, they could have said that they were sorry but there was no other way. They just couldn't care less. Then, part of the crew left with the small pick up truck, two guys waited here for about 30 minutes. They sat looking at their phones. I get it, it's a very tough job, rest is good, as long as there's nothing else to do while you're on the job. When all of them left, I got the electric leaf blower, a brush and dusted the walls and windows by the stump, as well as the porch which were covered in a thick layer of fine dust. Every single nook and cranny was. Now, call me picky, but the two guys on their phones could have reached out and offer to clean a bit better while they were waiting. Also, I picked up stuff left on the patio from their lunch. Painters, tile installer, hardwood floor people, plumber, and landscapers never left the job without a somewhat good cleaning, even if they were here for weeks. A few days later, we realized we weren't done. Part of the wall by the palm tree and the driveway were covered in oily spots. I sent pictures to Arturo and told him about a few other things mentioned above. To his defense, he offered right away to clean up and was very apologetic, but we couldn't wait longer to clean the wall (we still have visible oily spots) so I declined his offer. And finally, we realized the crew had damaged a beam of the carport. Okay, so it's one time out of three. I don't know if it's an unfortunate event (or rather, series of small events) because the boss wasn't on site or if the company is going downhill. In any case, it was painful enough to make us reconsider hiring them next time we need a tree service company. That's sad. read more

I hired Arturo and his team to trim my trees, shrubs and clean up my yards. They were professional and quick. I'm very happy with the results. Arturo is a pleasure to work with. He responds to our communication quickly and very punctual for the appointments he commits to show up. I will definitely hire them again and recommend Arturo's service to my friends. read more

I had Lopez out to maintain some trees that had overgrown. They did a great job and I feel deserve their Yelp rating. They came out initially to give me a quote. I thought they were prompt and professional. Their quote while not the lowest was in range of the lowest quote I received and I had confidence they would do a professional job. Day of, they sent almost a dozen guys out and they quickly performed the job of cleaning multiple types of trees including palms, coral, jacaranda, and focus trees. They were quick and tidied everything up afterwards and they thanked me for my business more than once. I would recommend their service and am planning on using them again the next time. read more

After a big windstorm, a tree fell in our yard and onto our cars. I called the number, which ended up being the direct line for Arturo Lopez (the owner) and left a message on New Year's Day. He returned the call within 5 mins and was at our house to provide an estimate within an hour. I expected to get a call back the next business day! He said he always keeps his phone on him after a wind storm. He knew the situation was urgent and moved an annual maintenance service with another customer (with an explanation of what happened at our home) to the following day so he could bring a crew out the next morning to our house. The crew was professional and quick for such a big job. Arturo was awesome and communicative. He turned a stressful situation into a manageable one. We'll definitely be using their services again! read more

I called last month to get a quote to cut our massive avocado tree. I was able to send him pictures and he gave me a quote via text. Price was great but unfortunately they were super busy so I had to wait a month to get the tree cut. Tony and another guy showed up at noon to get started on the tree. I was a little skeptical at first because I didn't see any trucks or anything. Tony climbed up and went to town on our tree. He did an amazing job. Two other guys showed up later to get rid of all the debris. I am really happy with the job and will use them again. read more

Somehow without our realizing it, several of the trees in our back yard had managed to grow out of control. Not willing to risk my life or any of my own limbs in trying to remedy the situation, I began to search for a reliable and reasonable tree service. Luckily, my co-worker was able to recommend Arturo, whom she'd worked with on several occasions. And the rest is tree maintenance history. Arturo was prompt to respond to my call; scheduled an appointment for which he was a few minutes early; gave me what I believe to be a fair estimate; and followed through on exactly what we agreed to. His crew showed up on time, worked quickly and carefully, and left the area cleaned up nicely. And this was all while dealing with an emergency call earlier in the day, and a dead battery. They literally didn't let anything slow them down. Very professional. I would highly recommend Lopez Tree Service. read more

We used them for free mulch service. They were quick to respond and fine to interact with. We knew we couldn't predict how much we'd get, but ended up with at least 3x what we needed and had to pay someone to remove much of it (which cost more than what we would have paid to buy nicer mulch at the quantity we needed). But my one star review is mainly for the fact that we explicitly said we didn't want eucalyptus bc we'd been advised it's bad for the soil. They told us the batch we'd get had some but very little eucalyptus in it. I don't know what percentage was in there, but what I do know is the entire batch was mixed with a lot of eucalyptus leaves and appeared to have much more than a small amount that would work for someone asking for none. Thus, I can't help, but think they made it seem like there wasn't much in there so they could dump the huge load on us. read more

Yes, hire Lopez Tree Svc. This team did a wonderful job trimming our fragile Chinaberry tree as well as our beloved but well overgrown Plumeria twin set. The plumeria had become so top-heavy, we had real concerns about it uprooting itself. Arturo's father came out to do the job himself with his team and they went above and beyond expectations. From retrieving a shiny aluminum balloon from the top of the tree that had been stuck for months and becoming an eyesore, to making sure nothing was damaged on our property during the process, even their clean up was top notch. We have fragile glass bulb patio lights weaved into the tree and they handled them with care and we didn't lose a single bulb. They communicated effectively through the process and everyone was incredibly professional. Highly recommend Arturo and his team. He called to check in when the job was done to make sure everything met our expectations. What a wonderful company to work with. Oh, and pricing was competitive but very fair. read more

Lopez tree service always does an excellent job trimming my trees. I will use them again.

Lopez Tree Service is highly rated here and on Angie's List so it was the first call I made and I'm glad I did. Arturo was fast to respond, provided the best estimate and even showed up early. He and his crew are pros, fast, efficient and and not a fallen branch or leaf left behind. Arturo is a real arborist and my trees look great. Do yourself a favor and make Lopez Tree Service your first call - you won't regret it. read more

I have to add to the already stellar comments about Arturo, his father and their crew. They just left our home after removing 5 dead trees. They made such hard labor look easy and they were efficient and professional. I highly recommend them to you for any landscaping needs you may have. What a pleasure to work with such honest people. We will definitely call them again if we need more work done. read more

I contacted Arturo back on November 15th with a job regarding some tree trimming, due to insurance requirements. We communicated back and forth to figure out a day and time for him to come out and work. I sent him pictures and specifically told him all of the requirements the insurance company had sent me, and what needed to be done. It wasn't until December 11th that he made time to come out and work on the house, a seemingly easy job to complete. The work was completed in less than 2 hours on Dec 11th, and that night, when I got home, I checked on the completed work. It didn't look like the tree was trimmed back 10' from the house (which is what the insurance company required) so I reached out to Arturo to make sure that is what he did. He reassured me that he trimmed it back 10' and that it was "more than enough for insurance". I asked him to then send me the invoice for the work so I could submit it, along with pictures, to the insurance company. I got said invoice 3 days later. Come January 6th, I receive a letter from the insurance company stating that the tree is still within the 10' mark form the house, and that more work needed to be done. I climbed onto the roof to measure the distance myself, just to double check, and behold.... the distance was in fact less than 10'. In fact it was only 8' away from the house. I immediately contacted Arturo for him to come back to "finish" the job, since it was clear he in fact did NOT do what I had asked of him to do. He then proceeded to dodge my phone calls, my voicemails, and my text messages. Since then, he has barely responded, making it very clear he has no interest in completing the unfinished work he had done. If you want a terrible job for a competitive price, use this service. But if you want the work to be completely correctly, then AVOIDE THEM AT ALL COSTS! They don't listen to your needs properly, and when the work isn't completed properly, they take no responsibility for fixing it. read more

I called inquiring about mulch delivery. Issue was Arturo was not clear. If you want a HUGE amount, great; BUT beware - what I got was nearly no wood chips all mixed with bamboo, trash.... When driver arrived, he refused to leave partial load and talked me into dumping it in the alleyway. It was a big burden with only a fraction of clean wood chips. read more

Arturo had been trimming our palm and oak trees for years and had a good experience. When we had to remove both of the trees Arturo and his crew took on this huge job with speed, safety, and professionalism. We received many comments from our neighbors about how impressed they were with the job. I would wholeheartedly recommend them. read more

I got quotes from three different companies for a tree removal and they were about the same plus or minus $20. I chose Lopez tree service because we were really happy with them in the past and compared to the other two businesses, Lopez tree service is the most organized and easy to work with. Arturo is a nice and energetic guy who responds really quickly by text or phone. He explains things thoroughly. He took notes on a phone app while he was looking at the trees and emailed me a quote immediately after. His crew is efficient and they cleared out the debris completely before after they finished read more

A tree fell in the wind--Arturo came by right away and provided a quote. His team was professional and cleaned up everything nicely.

I needed my palm trees trimmed, and soon. Mr. Lopez fit me in quickly ( he's a fellow member of our community ) His crew were polite, professional and thorough. Cleaning up after the job and even skimmed debris in the pool. Bonus Would easily recommend. read more

Arturo removed a small holly tree. It was out and cleaned up in half an hour. He scheduled it within a week of accepting the job.

I give this place 5 stars. I've hired them twice (two years ago and again recently) to cut back the trees on our HOA's property and they do a great job. Arturo is quick return calls, come to the property to give an estimate, and have the work scheduled. The team that comes to the property does superb work with a friendly attitude. I love that our overgrown property always looks so clean and well groomed after their visit. I look forward to hiring them again in the future for our tree cutting needs. Thank you Lopez Tree Service! read more

Pro: Knowledgeable, professional and friendly staff. Arturo and his crew were amazing at doing their job. I had 6 trees trimmed around the property and they did a great job. I'm mostly impressed with the impeccable clean up effort, they even went into my neighbor's backyard to clean up the branches that fell over the property line. Con: It was difficult scheduling a date for the work. I was given a time frame and that was pushed back twice. I had to follow up with Arturo couple times to get them to come out to do the work. All and all, I am satisfied with the work and would recommend Lopez Tree Service. read more

Would give zero stars if I could, but overall would not recommend this company at all! Met with Albert on 5/17/19 on a tree trimming and removal job I urgently needed. He came out the same day I called him and seemed like a knowledgable and nice guy, but definitely does not know how to run a responsible business or acknowledge customers. --- After receiving the estimate, I immediately emailed him to start the job and stopped my search for a tree contractor. He didn't respond, so I texted him at the cell phone number I had originally reached him at. It took multiple attempts to reach him and he basically said he was out of town and coming back that night. Well...multiple texts later and 3 weeks have passed and I don't know if he is still on vacation! Very irresponsible and rude of him to never even call or text to apologize. There are so many other great companies out there that want our business...choose someone else. I would not recommend. read more

I would like to express my sincere appreciation to Arturo and his team for an excellent job! He accomodated around my work schedule and personally arrived at my property to inspect the trees that I wanted to be removed. He provided a fair estimate which made the decision to chose his company, an easy one. His crew completed the job on 3/26/2020, the trees were cut down to ground level, and the job site was cleaned afterwards. I will definitely use this company again for any future needs and I highly recommend them! read more

I've had two wood chip drops with Lopez Tree Service. They were incredibly quick, professional, and kind. I appreciate that he was so clear each time with letting me know exactly what kind of mulch I would be getting. The first time he let me know it was mostly chipped wood. The second time he let me know that it was mostly chipped leaves. This worked perfectly for me because I'm using it for sheet mulching, but I love that he really explained exactly what we would be getting. I'll be reaching out to him when we're looking for more mulch and for all of our tree trimming. I highly recommend Lopez Tree Service! read more
