So I called LaFountain Tree Specialists and told them about my large maple tree. It needed a dead wood trim. They sent Chris the same day, (he is the owner of the company) to give me an estimate, and brief me about some of the equipment they would bring and how they would go about doing the job. So on January 2 , at 10am they showed up and went to work. They brought in a truck with a man lift, which enabled a man with a chainsaw to get to anywhere he needed to go on that tree. They cut off all the dead wood, and topped the tree. There wasn?t a branch on that tree they didn?t look at. They finished up about 12 noon. So it was a two hour job and they were busy the whole time. I would recommend these guys for any tree care you need.

After a severe wind storm and many large trees down in Beverly Hills, Chris (the owner) and his team were out in the community helping homeowners with tree damage. Chris and his team were prompt, professional and very thorough finishing the job (from cutting through clean-up) even during continued rain. I truly appreciated his help. He did not take advantage of the storm destruction and charged a fair market rate (based on my previous tree service experience). The service was excellent from beginning to end. I definitely would recommend his team.

I had few trees to trim some above power line, Chris the owner came himself and looked around suggesting what is best in my case. Once scheduled the team came and worked swiftly. They also cleaned my yard nicely, I would definitely recommend them if you have a tree service need!

They came out promptly to take down 2 Blue Spruces and cleaned up afterward. It took them about 3 week to return to remove the stumps left behind but I didn't have to pay until the job was completed.

LaFountain removed a large tree in the corner of my back yard. Out of 4 quotes I got he was the best value. Other bidders required bucket trucks, tried to up sell me on other services, etc. None of this from these guys though. They came out within a week from quoting and only took about 4 hours and they cleaned up well, just leaving the free mulch from stump grinding. Would recommend, thank you!

It was difficult to get in touch with this company at first. The phone numbers went directly to voice mail and the mailbox was full so I couldn't leave a message. I tried using the email address, but did not receive a reply. I had to use the HomeAdvisor message system to contact this business. Once I was in contact, they were very responsive, even coming out on a Friday evening to finish the clean up.
