James Mackman & his team (Chris & Nate) were incredible. I initially called James (I found him after hearing about his volunteer work to help our community with cats stuck in trees) regarding a tree that had roots lifting up my neighbor's concrete that needed to be removed asap. After submitting my information on his website for a free quote, he called me the same day and scheduled an inspection for 2 days later. His quote was half of the others and he could do the work 2 days later. I was so impressed with his knowledge, attention to detail and helpfulness that after taking my tree down I immediately asked for a quote to do a complete yard cleanup of my property front and back. Again, his quote for the all day job was fantastic and the work and final result were absolutely perfect! I plan to get a quote for exterior painting of my home next. I highly recommend Mackman's Tree Care and look forward to doing business with James in the future. read more

James Mackman is an arborist, not a guy who comes in with a chainsaw and hacks up your trees. He knows his stuff, and it's clear he loves trees and loves his work. He came out for a free estimate, and the work was done the next day. He pruned our Japanese maples and they look beautiful! His services are reasonable in price, and with his expertise, we are surprised he doesn't charge more. They did an excellent job cleaning up after the work was done, which we always appreciate. We have used him a few times now and have been more than satisfied with the work. He is professional, prompt, and personable. He has taught us a lot as he always explains what he recommends and why. If you choose Mackmans Tree Care, we feel safe to say you will be very pleased. read more

I can't say enough good about these guys! Great work!!! My yard has trees covering over it like a canopy snd preventing any sunlight. They showed up and started working. About 3 hours or so they were done and my yard had sun and looked great! Trees looked great and healthy. They even helped me figure out why my lawn wasn't growing and how I could fix it. The price was more than reasonable! Very happy with these folks and love their work! Highly recommend them!!! read more

Very professional and did a great job. Cleaned area after they wee done. Would recommend them.

These guy's are awesome! About 2 years ago our kitten was stuck in a tree all night during a rain storm, we called Mackmans Tree Care for their Cat Rescue service. They came out and saved the kitten, and they didn't even charge for their wonderful service. Businesses like this deserve our support, so this week when I decided to have our Palm Tree removed, Mackmans Tree Care was my first and only call. Just as I thought these guys are just as good with their Tree Care skills as they are with Cat Rescue. If you want honest, caring, skilled, reliable service, you will be extremely satisfied with choosing them. read more

This tree service is the best! We found our selfs in a situation after our family cat was stuck in the pine tree for 3 days as of today! When someone recommended Mackmans Tree Care I was worried about the cost but when I called them, they came out completely free of charge and they were able to save the day, climbing over 25 ft and bringing our kitty down safely!! Thankyou so much Mackmans !! Highly recommend, I'm sure they do great work on trees as they seem very experienced. read more

Great service and fair pricing. They got the job done quickly too. I would highly recommend them.

Dauki, is the worst tree service guy I've ever had to deal with. I looked at his reviews and he has 5 stars, which i can't believe. If he keeps doing business like he did for me, he's going to hurt this company. He gave me an estimate and he never did what he said he was going to do. He gave me a price to sell the job... and never finished what he told me... I asked him to trim the mulberry tree and take down the branches down so I can manage the tree myself. When he and his girlfriend said, "I'm done" I told him I what happened to cutting the bigger limbs so i can manage it myself" ? He said, "I had a long day and was tired... if i said that, im sorry... He said, I can cut those bigger branches, but it's going to cost another $200.00 more and you have to haul the bigger branches away. This is what we agreed the first time w/o the extra $200.00. Lastly, he said, "If you don't want to listen to me I'm done w/you". When he finished half of the tree he said, "I'm not leaving here until I get paid and I only accept cash because im tired of getting SCREWED". In the beginning I told him I would give him a ck and he said, "Thats fine". I gave him half of what he told me in cash and he told me, "I'll be here tomorrow to finsh". He never showed up, so i called him. He said, "I had a long week and was tire. I'l be back on Monday to finish shredding". I guess he subbed out the shredding out to Emanuel's tree service, so i paid him the other half of the invoice. I hv been texting him and Emanuel for my invoices and i have not received anything from anyone. The last call i had w/Dauki i asked him for my invoice and when was he going to finish. He said, "I saved your life from climbing the ladder... your wife was shaking at the door when I was talking to her because she thought you were going to fall". My wife called and left him a message telling him, "I never was shaking, we only talked about giving us an estimate". I told him I'll give him a ck after he was done, then he said he only accepts cash. (He only accepts cash to pay his employees He told me and my wife he would give a receipt to who ever paid him. (I'm still waiting for my receipt) I GAVE HIM A MINUS STAR... DO NOT USE MACKMANS TREE CARE read more

Today the guys at Mackmans tree care saved the life of my sweet cat. He was stuck for an entire week (I didn't know where he was). I called them and they were here quickly (on the weekend! Who else would do that?) If you need tree service please consider Mackmans. It's hard to find an honest business these days who want to do the more than just minimum. We thank you so much, Mackman's read more

We have a few olive trees (among others) in our yard that had been poorly shaped and lackadaisically trimmed over the years. After we called Mackmans to assess and begin taking care of them, they have been healthy, well shaped, and thriving. Bottom line is they KNOW trees and we can trust they will always do their best when it comes to ensuring our trees are cared for. Most Highly recommended!! read more

I was surprised to see them show up without masks during Covid. I stayed inside while they did their work. It was ok, I don't think it was worth $800 it looks messy with branches just half cut here and there. I also had a rope swing attached to the tree which they just cut down without asking us. I feel like they were in a rush to get out of here. They seemed knowledgeable about trees but the work did not reflect the same knowledge. I would not recommend them. read more

We are very happy with the work done in our yard. We needed several medium sized trees trimmed and shaped throughout our large yard. They did a great job adhering to what we discussed and cleared and cleaned up as they went. They are very knowledgeable and professional for such a young company. We plan to use them again next year. read more

James and his crew came out and pruned 2 citrus trees for me. I like the fact that before they start pruning he lets me know how and why he needs to prune a certain way. My Orange tree was very thick and full of dead and dried up branches and the oranges this year were not as sweet. After the pruning it looks wonderful! Looking forward to next years oranges. His knowledge is exceptional. He and his crew a very professional and his prices are very reasonable. read more

These guys came out in 2019 and I'm just getting around to giving a review. They were very helpful in explaining how the city will take away the 65+ foot king palm tree they cut down for us. I know it was a hard job just due to location it was in. Two feet from a pool and 50 yards out to the curb and weather was getting toasty. read more

Mackmans Tree Care remove two huge redwood trees and three Cypress ! They did a great job very reliable, reasonable and professional! Highly recommend these guys! read more

We were beyond satisfied with Mackman's tree service. James, his partner and their entire crew are very hard workers and left our backyard very clean. Our backyard is close to 1/4 acre and we had multiple stumps and bushes that needed to be grinded out as well as tree removals and pruning. They were able to knock everything out in about a 1/2 day and their price was almost impossible to beat. We will have Mackman's tree care out again in a heartbeat to continue regular tree care for our remaining trees. Highly, highly recommend! read more

James, the owner of Mackmans Tree Care, is one of the most conscientious persons you will ever hope to find. He and his crew took out two nuisance trees that were in a very bad place, between my house and the neighbors' fence, trimmed two huge palm trees, and took out two large sagos. I cannot say enough good about his work. He and his crew had everything removed safely and trimmed in about four hours. The cleanup was incredible! I am a very fussy person, and my vision usually does not match up with the average finished job. They removed ALL debris, and my yard never looked better. They price James charged was very fair. If you want the BEST, hire this company. You will not be sorry! I cannot say enough good things about them. They really go the extra mile! read more

I had 2 large overgrown amber trees. I had concerns about the limbs hanging over my roof, plus the season fall mess created by the spikey balls and excessive leaves. I hired mackman's three service to trim down my trees down to 1 story level to remove limbs over my house and future better tree management and fall clean up..they did an excellent job trimming down the tree, cutting away the limbs over my roof and keeping the tree shape appearance when done..additionally they remove all tree debris and cleaned up the surrounding area... thank you mackman's tree service for a job well done!! read more

I can't say enough positive things about this company. Arrived on time, very professional but friendly. Clean what was top notch. Would highly recommend this Co.I can't pick out one person individually to praise because they were all great. ++++++++ read more

Today SUCKED on so many levels! sounded like the roof caved in on my house when my tree fell! Thank God it didn't damage the roof, or break any windows. I desperately started calling tree removal companies trying to find someone to help. I called Charles Schwab's Tree Service Inc. They were booked solid and couldn't help me. Not even 20 mins later, I received a call from Mackman's Tree Care. He said that the lady from Charles Schwab referred him to me. She went out of her way to help a stranger that was having a bad day. I was so touched, I called and thanked her. They were there shortly and removed the tree. Both of these companies were amazing. I had to give them a shout out ! If your in need of tree services in the Central Valley I highly recommend them both. They are professional and good people read more

We had a wonderful experience with these young men today! They showed up promptly, worked hard, and finished trimming 5 trees and had 1 removal of a large sycamore done by 1pm! They had great prices, too! They even cleaned up after themselves, and hauled away all the mess! 10/10 would recommend! read more

James Mackman and his crew are great. James came out to discuss the job with me, and he clearly communicated what would happen and what I could expect. His crew came out with him, he had expert climbers and a great stump grinding guy. They were all just good guys. When they finished the job, the area was left attractive and clean. I would 100% use them again and highly recommend them. read more

Call for the free estimate and he came out that day. Was very knowledgeable about what he was doing. They came out on new years and did both my tree and cleaned up the cities tree in front of my house. Very nice young men that worked very hard and did a great job. I plan on calling them every year to prune my tree. If they had a sign I would have put it up in my yard. read more

James and his team did a fantastic job trimming some olive trees in our back yard. He is knowledgeable and professional and we would highly recommend him! read more

I hired Mackmans Tree Care to pull out a few smaller trees, trim trees, shrubs, and tall oleanders. Then later I hired them again to pull up the oleanders and stump their roots (along with other roots of trees and shrubs). James and Dauki (& their crew) initially did a great job for a very good price. And later, when they stumped the various roots--again, they did an excellent job. Also, when two of those oleanders (I had 7-9 oleander tall bushes) started to sprout again--Mackman Tree Care kept their word and "nipped them in the bud" and retreated the area to avoid further growth. BTW, they are very careful to use non-poisonous ways to kill roots to safeguard pets and humans/kids (only using stronger chemicals when proven necessary). I highly recommend this company. read more

These guys are awesome! Very reasonable pricing. Super friendly and great customer service. Would highly recommend to anyone. They removed 2 redwoods from my front yard. Did an amazing job. Very professional. Would use again in a heartbeat read more

These guys are a "class act". Quick to respond and very professional. Delivered a competitive bid and scheduled and completed the job on short notice. They also took the time to educate me a little on tree care and maintenance. The team cleared out several trees in my front yard (including a palm) and left the yard nicer than they found it. I would highly recommend Mackman's tree care and will use them for all my future needs. DID YOU KNOW that Mackman's also offers a free cat rescue service. Yes, true story. When the Fire department is too busy and your beloved cat is stuck in the tree, this team will come out and rescue at no charge. They do this out of kindness and a service to the community (back to a "class act). read more

We had huge cypress trees in our backyard as well as other trees that needed to come out. These guys did a phenomenal job!

I would highly recommend them! read more

James Mackman and his crew just finished pruning my Japanese Maples and two overgrown Chinese Pistachio trees and I can absolutely rave about their professionalism, knowledge and skill. They left my yard and lawn so clean I could scarcely tell they had been there, but for the condition they left my trees....clean and free of deadwood and so healthy-looking and no longer threatening my tile roof. These folks really know their business. They were so pleasant all the while they were working. I can't thank them enough for all their hard work and would gladly recommend them to anyone requiring tree services. There is none better in the Central Valley. Satisfaction Rating: from 5 stars I give them 1000! read more

The doorhanger said arborist, the estimate was the best we received, he could start tomorrow - and I'm glad we chose to go with Mackman's Tree Care! I was impressed with the expert ropework in the trees & the secure tie-down as the branches were lowered onto our driveway, rather than the "chop & drop" I've seen with other services. I appreciated the written estimate detailing exactly what the job would include as well as the promptness & professionalism while on the job. When The Hubs expressed concern over potential root regrowth, James returned the next day with the big stump remover just to ensure that wouldn't happen! Overall, I was quite satisfied with the level of care & customer service provided by James & Mackman's Tree Care. When it's time for the next tree needing care I'll definitely be using them again! read more

Excellent tree care service! James and his team are professional, honest, reliable and real experts in the art of tree care and trimming. I have used them several times from a huge Redwood tree removal project to a small Japanese Maple trim. His prices are beyond fair and reasonable. So glad he was recommended by a friend! read more
