Or they have branches that present a fire hazard and are close to your roof, giving animals a perfect highway to your attic? We were dealing with it all!! Armed with the city's municipal code and state case law, I researched property lines, talked to the neighbors, and called seven different tree companies. Zazueta Tree Specialists was already at the top of my list when my neighbor mentioned they had just used them and were 100% happy. That sealed the deal for me!! Carlos Zazueta--the super friendly, highly skilled owner and certified arborist--gave us a very reasonable estimate, and we excitedly scheduled our day of freedom from these invasive trees! The crew arrived at 7:30 AM sharp in a clean, professional logo truck with a serious wood chipper. After reviewing the plan to trim back five encroaching trees with Carlos and my hubby's guidance, they got straight to work. Their performance was meticulous, fast, and exacting. The crew (shoutout to Alex & Juan!) was incredibly friendly, professional and engaging When we asked. They left us with clear airspace, a spotless yard, and TOTAL PIECE OF MIND! We were so impressed with Carlos's expertise, professionalism, and customer service that we've already engaged his family's landscaping division (Zazueta Landscaping) to assess our entire front and backyard for a complete re-do. Save yourself the hours of overkill research I already did and just call them!!! You wibe so glad you did! P.S. In the "after" photo of the massive oak tree, it might look like the top branches weren't cut back entirely. Carlos explained that they always prioritize the long-term health of the tree. We got the safety and clearance we needed without harming the tree!

It was also time to perform some tree care maintenance (trimming, cleaning, reducing, etc). I scheduled with five companies, all with arborists in case we needed permits on any removals. They all offered free estimates on-site. Carlos came from JC's Tree Service, and we did the walk thru. Afterwards, he mentioned that he had a crew nearby that was working on tree removal in coordination with a house demo. He offered to take care of removing the cypress trees TODAY since this was a small job his crew could perform during a period of downtime at the nearby site. WIN-WIN: they got to add a job in during some downtime, and we got the trees cut that SAME DAY at a great price! They also cleaned up after themselves: blew/gathered all the tree debris from our driveway and sidewalk.

Skyview Tree crew of Santa Clara County trespassed through back neighbor yard and shared fence onto…read morefamily yard with healthy old growth ordinance sized Redwood tree on Thursday November 20th, 2025 without an appointment or notification. They had no county-required permit, and no 811 service was pre-marked around the yard before they arrived. The healthy, majestic, sacred and irreplaceable Redwood tree only needed simple pruning/trimming and had been inspected not long before this travesty caused by Skyview crew who removed hundreds of branches from the Redwood. They ignored my demands for them to stop, continued removing all branches, topping the tree, essentially to poach the wood. I contacted to Santa Clara County Arborist Inspectors San Jose Code Enforcement plus tried reaching Skyview Trees before they topped the very top of the tree. There's also a Skyview Trees business in Rohnert Park/Sonoma County with Arborist certifications, accreditations licenses in business much longer than Marisa and Jaime's company - The Skyview Tree Services crewman who trespassed and began poaching away the healthy Redwood used their license number 949233 under false pretenses to botch the Redwood up so badly it could no longer survive... a form of passive tree poaching, with permit and 811 violations to boot. Code Enforcement Director, II David Parker 408-535-7759 david1.parker@sanjoseca.gov verified the otherwise healthy ordinance sized old growth, protected California Redwood Tree was unnecessarily topped by Skyview crew after they purposely over-pruned hundreds and hundreds of virile old growth branches off the entire trunk of the neighborhood ecology and my family's sacred Redwood Tree. We never even received written or verbal notification to expect tree crewmen encroaching our private, personal yard and tree through the neighbor's yard by Skyview, nor the housing community management and community groundskeeper... This was an opportunistic tree poaching by Skyview and who knows what all their cohorts against a senior citizen's family home. Even the common area groundskeeper seemed to be in cahoots with Skyview and two weeks, December 4th after commicating again with Arbortist and Code Enforcement, he physically attacked me, causing multiple serious injuries, a 911 call. Law enforcement did file a report regarding that brutality and also the Redwood tree poaching attempt from November 20th. I had contacted 811 after that incident from November shortly thereafter due to the Skyview tree crew not having permits, and damages they caused as extremely skilled trespassers/poachers/tree-removers with expensive work trucks and heavy equipment. The areas Skyview Tree crewmen encroached were not premarked nor flagged prior to their intrusion on November 20th, 2025 and same thing before they trespassed again to finish poaching all the Redwood trunk full of highly valuable heartwood on Monday February 9th 2026. This time a permit had been issued a by Code Enforcement for "Dead Tree Removal", because Skyview intentionally murdered the Redwood Tree - and no doubt in my mind they had been eyeing the tree for some time while doing palm tree maintenance in the neighborhood common areas. This company has violated my family's deeply religiously held property and rights multiple times in addition to professional standards they purposely and knowingly disregarded to poach the sacred Redwood, all it's branches and timber. Redwood Tree poaching under pretenses of pruning/trimming (intentional over pruning and topping of healthy, ordinance sized old growth California Redwood) without permit in November 2025, and also no 811 premarking of areas is the legacy of Skyview license number 949233 to me - do your research about quality tree professionals not tree poachers with plenty of heavy and expensive equipment... They stole tons of Redwood lumber from our yard, including heartwood and mulch. And many of the yard stepping stones were damaged by their heavy equipment. Unforgettably beyond heartbreaking, Skyview's corruption.. Marisa and Jaime Mendosa 949233 need further investigation currently about their past and alleged "professionalism" guise regarding connections in California and other states, countries to tree poachers.

Marcos assured me that they would be careful and would pull the large truck only to the end of the driveway ramp.
