They made contact and I sent pictures of a tree I needed trimmed. I received a quote and accepted. The workers arrived in the morning a couple of days later. Work was completed satisfactory.

I don't have any photos of the work, but I have a photo of what they had to accomplish. I had an appointment, but within a half of a day they were done. Everything was great.

Tree Trimming
$2,600
Gil Tree Service responded promptly when I reached out for advice regarding trimming three large trees in my yard. I have a large pepper tree in my backyard. In front, I have an olive tree and a huge Podocarpus. Each tree required different treatments and skills to properly maintain them. Gil Tree Service responded promptly and scheduled the work within days. I appreciated their prompt response, and the representative gave clear recommendations for each tree. The trimming work was conducted efficiently and with a high level of professionalism. The crew completed the job quickly, ensuring that all necessary steps were taken to address my concerns. Additionally, after the trimming was finished, all debris was thoroughly removed, leaving the yard clean and tidy. Based on this positive experience, I would not hesitate to recommend Gil Tree Service to others. Should I require further tree work in the future, I will certainly call on their services again.

Joel & his team are honest, brave , & hard working. They arrived on time everyday & cleaned up & left my home neat & well cared for every night. I have dozens of large live oaks & Monterey pines on my property some 60 feet tall. Joel helped me maintain a fire safe cleared area all around my home removing huge branches & limbs from trees that had to be climbed & cabled for safety. These are tree professionals. Actual experts not just tree trimmers. My property is a steep hillside. No problem. Most of my trees are 50 to 100 years old. Some I planted as a boy. I am 63. Everything was done safely & neatly with every tree cared for so each will thrive & live another 50 or 100 years. Joel even found a dove’s nest full of baby birds on a limb 40 feet up set to be cut & came down to ask me how to proceed. We saved the limb to save the nest while the mother & father flew around nervously. Hire Gil Tree Service. This guy is the real deal. They are the best decision you can make.

Gil's Tree Service cut back a huge redwood tree which was rubbing the roof in two places of a three story house. Gil limbed this tree, expertly and gently lowered the limbs through a narrow opening between a fence and a carport. The limbs weighed several hundred each, so navigating the small opening and being conscientious about the work is a credit to Gil and his team. Get your job done safely, quickly, efficiently at a decent price with expert help from Gil's Tree Service.

I can't say enough good things about Gils Tree service! From start to finish, they exceeded all expectations. The team was incredibly hard working and meticulous, transforming my backyard into a paradise in just 3 days. Their knowledge and expertise were evident in every detail. Not only were they professional, but they were also kind and polite throughout the entire process. They listened to my ideas and offered valuable suggestions that truly enhanced the final result. The quality of their work is outstanding—my backyard has never looked better! I highly recommend Gil’s Tree Service to anyone looking for top-notch service and exceptional results. Thank you for making my outdoor space beautiful!

Gil and his crew did an amazing job of trimming and shaping trees at our newly purchased home. They were timely, tidy and professional. In addition to removing some perilously hanging branches from above our house, they carefully manicured the property that immensely expanded our views of the Carmel Valley. Throughout the process, Gil took the time to educate me about our foliage and what we might expect in terms of future growth and maintenance needs. I look forward to working with Gil and his team as the seasons change and our garden flourishes.

These guys were VERY good! They were fast, clean and professional. All the work was performed as expected for a competitive price. Additionally, Joel and his helper were very careful not to damage any adjacent vegetation or hardscape. Everything was cleaned up to perfection. We would certainly have Gil Tree Service return to perform more tree service.

I was so lucky to come across Gil. His friendly crew made quick work if my magnolia tree. He thinned it beautifully and I don't have to worry about it falling down on my roof anymore. He is amazing and knowledgeable and I would highly recommend!!

Joel was excellent to work with. I had, what I thought, was a tough job removing many large agave plants. He was prompt with responses as we scheduled the time and agreed upon cost which was more than fair. He was there within two days and on time. When the job was completed, clean up was impeccable. I would definitely use his services in the future. And highly recommend for any outdoor project you may have.

Gil Tree Service did an excellent job removing 3 Palm Trees in one day. He showed up on time and everything was handled professionally and at a reasonable cost. Joel and crew left the site cleaned up perfectly on a windy day. I recommend his services and will hire him again in the future.

This business deserves my highest recommendation. Joel is very knowledgeable about tree care, professional, punctual, conscientious, and his team leaves the worksite nicely cleaned after the work is done. I needed extensive tree work done twice by the company, at my property in Pacific Grove. Each time I have been very pleased with their excellent work and very reasonable prices.

Joel and his team did an amazing job on my front lawn, bushes and tree. I wish I had taken before pictures as it was an overgrown mess before they arrived. The cost was reasonable for the extra effort they went to. I will be using them again.

My first time with Joel and team. Worked great for me! The level of communication, commitment, execution and courtesy was unexpected. The "pre-work" to meet me needs, +++. I needed a unique match to my trees, Joel went over-the -top to be sure all was correct. The team was really connected and worked efficiently together. I say that to call out that they seemed to all have their jobs and to all do them well. Very conscientious! Very happy with the extra effort! I've already let them know they will be back for my annual tree needs. *****

Gil Tree Service did an excellent job pruning our ornamental cherry tree, which was in need of a major facelift. I would highly recommend Gil to anyone in need of an excellent, knowledgeable, and responsive tree service.

I highly recommend Joel Gil and his team to anyone who needs to have trees or tree stumps removed. He is highly responsive and does superb work. 831-710-0915. We had the misfortune to have a 40' pine tree fall in our backyard, onto a fence (luckily missing the house by inches!), on New Years Eve. He was at our site the next day to look at the work required. We aligned on a body of work (which included removing 6 other tree stumps from the property) for a highly competitive price. His team got to work same day to remove the body of the fallen tree. Today they returned to clear and remove all of the stumps. Couldn't be more pleased with the outcome. If you run into similar tree-related misfortunes or have existing trees to take down and/or clear from your property, I highly recommend Gil Tree Service.
