We highly recommend Essential Tree Service. Owner Greg responded promptly to my request to remove a…read morevery large tree in my front yard with a very fair quote. They arrived on time and carefully evaluated how to safely do the job. They were extremely knowledgeable, efficient and professional throughout the entire day. Mark, Jay and John were also very nice! They have all the right tools and equipment, to do the job. They took down and fully removed a very large tree which was leaning over and towards our house. The three man crew never stopped working til the job was complete and very quickly. They also coordinated the grinding of the humongous stump and completed that the same day too, and they remained on site to ensure everything was all cleaned up. Thank you essential tree service. You're the best!!!! Bruce & Lee Kunkel St. Petersburg

Only downside was lack of English speaking. Hard to communicate.

I contacted Greater Bay Area Tree Service online on Sunday. Monday they called me about the palm…read moretree I needed to be trimmed or removed. They explained this tree would grow 1 foot year so probably best to remove. (this palm is too close to my home so I am not attached to it) They came today with a huge team & efficiently cut it down and carried away the parts. The area was left cleared out so I am very happy with their service.

They did a great job removing a massive pine tree that required a crane. It was done in very quick,…read moreand they cleaned up well. Hauled everything away as well. The only issue we experienced was they initially drove the crane onto our lawn, which tore it up and cracked the sidewalk. When I called to let them know, there was no apology for the damage. Instead, I was told the city should handle the sidewalk. Then given the excuse of it was "thin and washed out underneath," was why it cracked easily. While we know our lawn isn't perfect, it was still frustrating to see it torn up. Also, the truck partially drove over our sewer line. Fortunately, there was no damage. It would've been appreciated if they had at least consulted us beforehand. We would've gladly let them use the driveway from the start, where they eventually moved the crane anyway. We weren't even aware the sidewalk was cracked until we noticed it ourselves later that day. Someone could've easily gotten hurt. Instead of the company reporting it, we had to reach out to the city ourselves to start the repair process. In the end, great work on the tree, but we were disappointed with lack of accountability for the damage caused.

If I can give a zero I would give a zero. I agreed to pay 350.00 for a tree trimming and a removal…read more tyler and his partner showed up 2 hours late and did trim my oak tree. When they were done they left all the trimmings on the front lawn by my property and the neighbors property and said he had a co-worker coming to pick up the trimmings that night. needless to say nobody showed up. After numerous calls in the morning he claimed someone would be there to pick up the trimmings at 4-5 pm. That time came and went then he claimed Someone would pick up the trimmings at 9pm. Someone did come but only took half the pile and left the sidewalk a mess. I will gladly pay someone to cleanup the trimming that are left and I would never use this company again. Unprofessional, un reliable and not trust worth but on top the that he never returned calls. He would send an apology text with I'm sorry for all the delays and yet the job was fully paid for and still not completed. don't waste your money and energy on this company.

I have used Ed's service three times, including a recent disaster where a tree in my back yard…read moresplit and about 3/4 of it fell into my neighbor's pool. I called and left a message for him after 5:00, when we came home from work and found this mess. He was out to my house the next morning to see what had to be done. And by 3:00 that afternoon when my husband got home from work, it was already done. First off, this company is professional, kind, polite, efficient and respectful. I can not express enough how pleasant the whole team was in handling a super stressful situation. I called other tree services in the past, and I can say they are well worth the money and absolutely not the most expensive, but I find them to be the best service. They arrived a few hours after Ed came by to assess everything. And came with a huge crane, several trucks, a crew of several guys, a chipper and a dump truck to haul all the tree parts away. Ed previously handled a Bamboo cluster gone wrong at my house. And he recently came back after my swimming/flying tree disaster, just before the storm hit, to clean up the overgrowth on my front yard trees. The more I think about what happened in the back yard, with a tree that simply got over weighted with wet foliage and split apart, the more I appreciate the service I got before the storms came. I could have had three more trees do the same, but land on my house instead. It was also insanely cool to watch them lift a tree up over our houses and place it in the yard to cut it up.

From Ed's first visit to the team showing up on time and ready to go the service was exceptional…read more Ed worked with the team to ensure they knew exactly what had to happen as this was no small job - executed to perfection with professionalism and a cheerful (almost playful) attitude. Efficient and effective. Without hesitation would recommend this organization.

Only around 3 of them returned a message. 1 of them said he'd check out the house and give me an estimate and didn't. For about five days. But MATHEW, that guy is another level of hustle and hard work. He called me back within seconds. He was polite and friendly. He said "I'll give you an estimate shortly." He drove to my house immediately (not close to where he was.) And called me from there -- yeah this is price: when can I start? And 12 hours later -- a quarter of an acre of yard looked brand new. A year of neglect and rubbish, gone. If everyone of us ran out business like he runs his, this world would be a better place. I hope this guy becomes a millionaire
