Quick and easy communication great team. Trimmed our palms and cleaned up after. Highly reccommed

I have waited well over a year to post this review, 15 months, in hopes my giant bird of paradise would "grow back in a year" as Brandon half-heartedly promised after his guys left barren what was once a wall of mature and lush giant bird of paradise. This provided a much needed layer of privacy form my neighbors above, which is now gone. Unfortunately this bird of paradise wall were so thinned with so many actually removed that this remains barren and will for many years to come. The 20 years these plants have developed into such a nice landscape barrier was eliminated in one afternoon by these tree trimmers. Nick at this company texted with me to communicate about the work and no one stopped by to meet me in person as every other tree trimmers always have in the past, to understand the needs and goals of the project. Instead, communications felt rushed. I explained my home is a short term rental with intermittent vacancies and rather than rushing the job, there were several longer 2-3 day vacancies in the coming weeks where the work could be scheduled so I could be present. I think they wanted the immediate work the following day and therefore rushed it. I did ask for the bird of paradise to be "thinned out" and "trimmed" quite a bit but this work practically obliterated them, removing far too many to the point where there is no privacy remaining. I was devastated to see the outcome and further frustrated that the workers did not clean up after themselves, knowing I had guests checking in to the home that evening. Instead, the backyard was left in disarray for my guests to deal with and for me to put back. The BBQ grill was left out in the middle of the patio, pool lounge chairs and a heavy umbrella stand left across the deck leaning up against a fence, broken lantern lights on my patio. Rather than taking accountability for the rushed nature of the work I was blamed for asking for the bird of paradise to "thinned" and "trimmed." There was a complete lack of empathy and accountability from Nick which was clear in his tone. There was no diligence in prepping for this job as other companies do, such as meeting me in person to understand my goal's of maintaining privacy with neighbors, or sending pictures mid job to gauge progress and if more removal should be done. Asking for things to be "trimmed" and "thinned" is really what anyone person hiring tree trimmers would request, but going overboard was never what I asked for or expected. Never in 13 years of owning this home have I encountered a lack of communication, empathy and accountability with clean up such as this. All tree trimmers I've hired have always done due diligence and met in person to discuss expectations, and have cleaned up after themselves. The underlying theme that this was my fault, with no accountability, continued when the owner, Brandon, contacted me to collect payment. It became more uncomfortable when he came to my place of residence the following day so I could pay him the balance in cash. This was such an upsetting experience. I graciously held off on writing this review in hopes things would grow back. Still, 15 months later I am just as upset by the outcome and backyard with no resolution. My landscaper says they removed way too much and the barren areas will never fill in. read more

Brandon is my go-to for any kind of tree service. This is the fifth time that Brandon's been out to my house to take care of trees in my yard. He always responds quickly, his prices are better than other tree services and he and his guys are always professional. in last night's wind storm I had a tree fall in my front yard. I got in touch with Brandon first thing and by 10:30 the tree had been cut up, loaded in his truck and all the mess cleaned up. I'm so grateful he got here so fast and took care of everything. read more

You can stop your search for a tree trimming company! We reached out to Three Men and a Tree via their online query and promptly received a call back to support us with our massive tree trimming and clearing project. They came out within a day to provide us with an estimate and evaluation, and within 2 days their team came out and completed the project. I have to highlight their day rate quote and incredible amount of work that was able to be completed, far far exceeding our expectations! We have a large wild open space in our backyard with fallen and overgrown trees, and was in much need of some TLC. These photos hardly do it justice. They are also masters at cleanup, as if they were never there. These are our people from now on, any and all tree needs we have! Thanks so much, Three Men and a Tree crew!! read more

Brandon and his team were great to work with. They were quick to respond and communicate well. We were a little worried with the weather but they were not phased. Showed up when they said they would and go right to work. They came in with a massive team for our two trees to be removed. When the trees were down they spent some time cleaning up and left the street with no mess. The HOA will be happy. I would recommend this company for tree removal and will have them back for regular maintenance. read more

I was worried about the weight of palm frond potentially damaging the power cable to my house as well as the palm trees leaving fruit everywhere, with a 1 day turnaround, Brandon's crew took care of all 3 of my 2 story palm trees without me needing to be present, the price was fair, the results are plain to see and I have no worries for some time. I will definitely use his services again when the time comes. I can say for quick jobs and good prices, he can't be beat. Thanks again Brandon! read more

I was looking for a service to trim my sky high palm trees and wasn't having much luck (one business never called me back and the other said they were insured but (spoiler alert) they weren't) until I noticed this crew doing some work at a neighbors house. They gave me an estimate on the spot and were easy to schedule. Showed up on time, did a great job, and left my side yard sparkling clean. I'll definitely use them again next time. read more

Brandon was great! He made himself immediately available for me, gave great advice, and did an outstanding job. After he finished trimming the giant trees in my backyard, he cleaned everything not leaving even a little tiny leaf on my yard. The price he offered me was the lowest among several estimates I requested. Very competitive! Totally highly recommended read more

Brandon and his crew were efficient professional and left the surroundings cleaner than when they arrived. My large Chinese Elm trees got a great trim and look wonderful. They even cleaned the house gutters while they were at it. read more

Another great job from Brandon and Nick. They laced my eucalyptus tree beautifully. They are so easy to work with, and they know just what to do. And I love to hire local companies! read more

Good service and good price Brandon was very easy to work with and did everything he said he would do. Punctuality was a challenge but I was not in a hurry and the work got done within a reasonable time frame. There was also an unexpected request for additional money without a change in scope (a cost he didn't factor into his bid). All in, the price was still reasonable so not a big deal but somewhat unprofessional. Thanks for the help Brandon. Good job. read more

Five stars for Three Men and a Tree!! You will not be disappointed because they really know what they are doing and at a fair price. They did a crown reduction on a huge Ficus and a Brazilian Pepper Tree that were battling for space and removed a 20 ft tall Pencil tree at the bottom of my canyon lot. They were prompt, professional and very efficient. The place was immaculate when they left. The whole team worked with precision and they did an awesome job! I highly recommend this company. read more

Brandon was the absolute best! He was able to fit me in quite quickly. I sent out several requests to cut down my tree. He responded faster than anyone else, and with the cheapest price. Very nice guy. And great on the eye! (Wink) read more

Really phenomenal service! Brandon and his team did an amazing job. They were all incredibly friendly and they worked so fast! Brandon was flexible with my availability and very communicative the day of. They arrived exactly when they stated, got to work and cleared off all the debris before they headed out. My yard may actually be more clean than it was before and my palm tree looks amazing again. They definitely have my business from now on!! read more

Brandon and the guys just finished our big project. Far more work than they anticipated and took much longer, but they never complained or veered from their original quote, which was by far the lowest we got. They were very careful of our plants and decks and cleaned really well afterwards, even as it began to rain. We will always use them from now on and would highly recommend them. Our trees look great and compliment the property beautifully. Very nice fella's, easy to work with as well. Thank you!! read more

Quick and easy communication great team. Trimmed our palms and cleaned up after. Highly recommend

These guys were awesome. We hired them to thin out our overgrown Birds of Paradise and trim back our pepper tree...but we were very concerned about losing any privacy. Brandon came out for a bid same day and listened to all our concerns. The crew did an incredible job, creating a natural look while bringing in a lot more natural light (and blue skies!) all while maintaining our privacy. We will definitely use them again and highly recommend! read more

Brian gave me a quote that was substantially lower than anyone else in Yelp. He showed up in time and did a great job. Highly recommended. read more

Brandon was great. Asked if he could give me a quote for a pine tree to be removed on my property and he came out the same day. Literally within an hour from me writing my first message to him, he quickly responded to me within minutes and was physically at my house with a quote on my tree to be removed all in a hour time frame. This is during heavy rain to remind you. Absolutely amazing! Brandon has incredibly excellent communication skills. Which is very hard to find these days. Would recommend his service to anyone with tree service needs. read more

We were in need of a good tree trimming in front of our house and Brandon replied quickly to our Yelp inquiry, and followed up with an in-person visit and estimate. He had a good price, was friendly and low-pressure, and so we decided to go with him. Very glad we did! He did an excellent job trimming our trees and cleaning up afterwards. Brandon knows his stuff - he's not just a dude hacking away with a chainsaw. I saw him thoughtfully assess what needed to go, and what needed to stay. He used a chainsaw for certain segments, a manual cutter for other branches, a trimmer for other areas, etc. I can see why he has a 5-star rating here, and have no hesitations whatsoever in recommending him. Thanks Brandon! read more

Great service! Brandon and his team did an outstanding job. They went above and beyond cleaning up everything. Highly recommend!

These dudes absolutely killed. We have about 7 large queen palms that they trimmed in a day. Good honest price, good honest work. They will be getting my business again. read more

After speaking to Brandon about the issues I had, he offered to have the workers come back and clean up but I had already done most of the work. So, he offered me some money back. I received a check in the mail the next day! I'm so glad he made the effort to make things right. So often businesses won't. That tells me he's worth another try. read more

Excellent service..had very tall tree that I needed to have crowned and thinned. Brandon and his crew, Joey and Demetria, came promptly, did a great job and left my place neat and tidy. Price was very fair. Wouldn't hesitate to use them again! read more

Brandon is the man!!! I put in a request for quotes to another company on yelp, but luckily for me it went to a few companies. Three Men and a Tree was one of them and Brandon got back to me quickly. He came out the next day and was super friendly and knowledgeable. He gave me a quote which I thought was pretty reasonable. I wanted to just tell him to do the work already based on his personality and quote. But I had other people coming the next few days and really was not familiar with the cost. After getting quotes from 2 other companies Brandon's was way less. I immediately called Brandon and he came out shortly after and trimmed all my palms and removed a tree as well. He did all the work by himself, I have no idea how he did it. I will definitely use Three Men and a Tree for all my Tree servicing needs. read more

Great work! Reliable! Clean and tidy. The price was very reasonable too. Thank you Brandon!

Brandon and his team at Three Men and a Tree did a phenomenal job. I would give them more stars if I could. We had a pretty large project that included trimming three 70' palms, removing one 70' palm, trimming a smaller palm, removing a pine tree, removing brush and grinding down two stumps. These guys were affordable, professional and quick. The best part - they were very concerned about clean up as our project impacted our neighbors property as well. We received a number of quotes and Three Men and a Tree were one of the most affordable. If you have a project in the yard, big or small, contact Brandon and his team - we will definitely be using them going forward. read more

I found these guys on Yelp and I am really glad I did. Brandon contacted me right away and I was able to get a quote fairly quickly. His pricing was good and his team did a really good job in trimming my 7 large palm trees. Their work was efficient and very clean. They hauled away what they cut and left the area clean. I would highly recommend that you check these guys out! read more

Wow! Brandon will definitely be my go to tree guy from here on out! $200 less than anyone else's quote and probably the best customer service I have ever seen even. My request was last minute and for half of what others were asking and he still fit me into his schedule to make sure I had it done that day. Thanks again for everything Brandon! read more

Brandon did a great job, was very knowledgeable, and super friendly. Will absolutely use again and recommend to anyone looking for a good price for a job well done read more

Brandon was prompt, courteous, super-responsive, very reasonably priced (we had five quotes). He arrived on time, talked us through the process of thinning out and trimming a wild pine tree in our yard, and left everything impeccable. Nice dude too. Couldn't recommend more, we already shared his contact with two neighbors. read more

Awesome crew , did an excellent job! I have a lot of specimen trees and they took great care - the result exceeded expectation and Brandon took care to make sure our neighbors side was cleaned up. Fantastic! read more

I declined Brandon's quote because my usual tree service showed up after many delays. I was sorry I couldn't use his ThreeMenAndATree service but I'm a loyal customer and my usual service showed up today, ahead of a High Wind Advisory. Brandon was very prompt in responding to my request for proposal. His review of the project was informed and comprehensive. The proposal he submitted was extraordinarily well presented and complete, with a very fair price. In spite of not actually using ThreeMenAndATree, I am confident that they would have done a highly professional job and a very reasonable cost for a project that included height reduction with heavy limbs and radical root pruning and barriers in tight quarters. read more

This was the best company that I've ever had help me with my trees!! They were on time, professional and very thorough and I am so excited to have my party for 100 people this weekend!! I've referred them to several people so far and I would prefer them over anyone, you so much Brandon and your crew you guys are the best!! read more

Great experience and came back to fix tree when we still had some Issues within the hour! Good customer service and my palm tree looks great. read more

Fair price for well done work. They leave your trees looking their best! They also did a great job removing some Pygmy date palms. Can't even see where the trees used to be! read more

I have used Three Men And A Tree for the past couple of years. Brandon the owner is very thorough with his detailed estimate and the entire crew - Alfredo, Demetrio & Robert did a FANTASTIC job with trimming our numerous trees. They made sure we were happy with the job and also made sure our neighbors were pleased before they left. I would highly recommend them and I will continue to use them next year. Thank you for being such a great company and focused on the customer. read more

Brandon and his team provided immaculate service. They are highly professional, courteous, and efficient. They also offer very competitive pricing. read more
