This is the second time I've used this company mainly because they do a really beautiful job of shaping the trees, arborist has a good eye! I am always very happy with the way the trimmed trees look, the shaping really brings out the beauty of the trees. They take the time needed to get the job done, they are thorough with the trees they trim. The clean up is also efficient and thorough. One thing though, and maybe this can't be avoided, but its worth mentioning, both times they trimmed my trees some of my other plants in the yard were damaged from falling limbs etc. I take a lot of care of my individual cactus and succulents and it's a bummer to come out after they've left to see pieces broken off and damaged. I would also suggest hanging out while the work is being done so you can make sure all of the work is completed. In the quote was included some minor trimming of my yucca which was either not done or not done well. Also, I found 2 cactus in my green bin that I had set out to dry to replant later, they threw them away as though they were trash. All said and done, they do beautiful work, they're just a tiny bit ferocious in the process.
Description of Work: Trimmed our large Oak tree, trimmed our Ca Pepper tree

They showed up on time and the guy seemed very fair. The guy who came to give me the estimate was actually here onsite the whole time. They cleaned up after themselves, took everything away and it was just real easy.

They provided a very good price because I had gotten 4 other quotes; some of them were twice as expensive. This company has an arborist on hand; he was good. They did a fabulous job and were here all day. Forestree cleaned up and did what I needed; they were wonderful.
Description of Work: I used The Forestree Company to trim and thin out 8 liquid amber trees and 6 oak trees.

They cut the limbs down. They put the debre in a grinders and cleaned up after themselves very well. They worked very well together and it was pleasure to see them work. I had really good experience with them over the phone dealing with scheduling and them actually coming out on time. They had the happy medium where they were a pleasure to work with and talk to. They did a great job. This was all done in the rain. There is no question we would use them again.
Description of Work: They took down problem limbs on two trees.

Got an estimate for a relatively small job cutting back a 30 foot tree overhanging the fence. The neighbor was complaining it was making a mess on her side. I emailed Forestree and they called me back promptly, then came out about 3 days later for an estimate. The arborist was prompt and very nice. Said the job was less than the company minimum ($250), and it would be at least several weeks till they could do it. I said I'd be happy just to pay the minimum to save me the time and hassle of having to start over with another company. He said he'd call me to schedule the appointment. Well he never called to schedule the service, even though he knew I was waiting and not planning to get any other estimates. He wasted a couple weeks off my time, meanwhile my neighbor was still upset. I won't use this company again, and don't bother calling them for 'small' jobs. I used Aand M Tree Service instead who charged me less and didn't stand me up - see my AngiesList review of them.

Only got an estimate. By the time we were ready to act, he was booked solid, so i'm in the process of findng someone else. However, provided a VERY reasonable price for pruning our lemon and apple trees (both overgrown) and pulling out tree from our backyard. In total, the quote was about $275, and that includes removal, etc. All that said, Mark was very professional, personable and really seemed to know what he was talking about. When i called back and found out he couldn't help me, he was able to give me some additional names to check out. And he was very adamant I get someone who knows what s/he is doing, which leads me to believe he really cares what happens.

The whole process was handled expertly by this company. They did the job the day before Thanksgiving using 5 men and completed it in less than an hour. They left the yard cleaner then it was when they came. The did the work without demanding payment immediately. The owner said he would mail me the bill and was only charging the $250 and said have a Happy Thanksgiving. They are definitely on my short list for all tree work in the future. I had emailed about 20 companies on Angie's List that were A rated to give me estimates. The minimum charges ran from $250 to $400. The estimates for pruning back the whole tree ranged from $400 to $800. This was one of the easiest arrangements that I have been able to make for a service in quite a few years.
Description of Work: I had a large branch that had broken on a 70ft tree. The branch tip had landed on a gazebo and was still attached at top to the tree. This 40 or so foot limb had to be removed and the branch above it needed to be trimmed to prevent being broken in another wind storm. The owner of the service contacted me immediately, went out immediately (as did many others) and gave me his minimum estimate for removing the troublesome tree branch as well as an estimate for pruning the whole tree. I just wanted the branch that was broken removed and the other one above thinned out. He agreed to do the branch for the minimum cost of $250 and we agreed that he could charge me a little more for trimming the one other branch.

They did the work with much consideration and care for our surrounding landscaping and left the area very clean! The workers were also very professional and considerate of our neighbors.
Description of Work: The Forestree Company removed a rather large, (25 foot tall?), and full, Grapefruit tree for me. They cleaned up all the debris, and took away all the wood and excess fallen fruit from the tree. They ground down the stump so it would not re-sprout. They also pruned and shaped our large Rose hedges and bushes.
