"I highly recommend Advanced Tree Care. The team arrived on time and did the most wonderful trimming/thinning of our olive tree. Over the years I've been told ours is the largest olive tree in Kern County and it's easily 100 years old at least. I'm highly impressed with the skill, artistry, and professionalism shown by Advanced Tree Care and will call them again every year from now on. Joe Goings"

"The team at AB Tree Service did an amazing job at my home. They carefully trimmed each tree, removed one that was now considered dangerous, and then proceeded to treat my trees with nutrients and for disease and pests. The trees have never looked better. Oh, they even went into neighbors yards (with permission) to clean up any branches that landed there. My place was spotless when they left."

"All work performed was on our front lawn.We had called around to get a few quotes to compare before we settled on Elliott's Sprinkler. They were by far the most professional of the 3. The first one didn't even measure the yard, and never even called us back with a  quote. The 2nd guy did the foot measuring method. While I understand he may have had lots of experience, it still left me a bit unsure. Elliott's Sprinkler sent out Mike. He was very professional. Listened to what I wanted. Then measured out the yard with a measuring wheel. He said we would have a quote for me within 24 hours and would like to some back out and go over it. I only ended up with 2 quotes to work with. The second of the 3 quotes I received the next day. And then Mike came out the next day to go over his quote. Although Elliott's was a little more I still thought they would be the best choice. And I was right. They started out with a blank canvas. 

We had a weed lawn so we had killed everything and had just dirt left. Unfortunately for them we had not watered in quite a while, so when they started digging for the sprinkler lines and drainage, they might as well have been digging in concrete. But I have to say the 2 guys doing the work didn't complain. And man they worked their butts off. It was hot and they kept at it. The first day they got the whole sprinkler system and drainage line done. Next day they started rototilling the ground to prep and level it for sod. I really felt bad that the ground was so hard. Took them a while to get it done and leveled. But again they worked hard with no complaints. By the end of the second day the ground was leveled and ready for sod. They also planted the 24 gallon Blossoming Pear tree. The 3rd day they showed up. The sod was delivered earlier that morning. They got to work quickly. Before I realized it they had the sod down, and had all the plants set in the ground, and the ground cover in place. It was such a transformation. We had not had grass in over a year, and suddenly we did. They finished up and then cleaned up their mess.

When they left, you wouldn't have even known they were there, except for the wonderful yard they left behind. I would like to say that John and his brother did a fantastic job. I will be requesting them when we are ready to do more work.A few days later the curbing guys came out to do the curbing. The curbing is done by a sub-contractor. They did a great job, but the messed up the sod a bit and had moved a lot of the mulch and buried it while doing the curbing. I called Elliott's to see if they could sell me more of the mulch so I could replace it. The next day Dan the owner himself, showed up. He gave me the mulch at no charge and even fixed the areas of sod they had messed up. They really went above and beyond in my opinion to give a great service. I would highly recommend them for any work your going to need. (FYI: Do the concrete curbing work first. We did it backwards, but in the future will be getting all that work done before we lay the sod.) We are going to have them do our backyard as soon as we are ready.

As side note. Please remember that the people who are doing work for you are just that.. PEOPLE. I have seen some people treat workers like this, like they are beneath them. These guys works hard for what they earn. And the last thing they need is someone treating them like they are something less than human. Respect can go a long way towards making this world a better place. It all starts with you. Thanks for reading this and have a great day."

FAQs for trees & shrubs treat, protect and maintain projects in Bakersfield, CA

A tree doctor or tree surgeon is another term for an arborist. The term is more common in places like the United Kingdom. They are professionals trained to plant, care for, maintain, diagnose, and remove trees of all kinds. Tree doctors have specialized knowledge to ensure the health and safety of trees.

Arborists are tree care specialists who plan, maintain, and enhance the health of trees with expert precision. They prune, diagnose diseases, treat pest infestations, remove hazardous limbs, and manage debris cleanup while developing comprehensive landscaping plans. They also handle tree planting and work with landscape professionals to ensure long-term tree vitality and safety.

Consulting arborists are tree experts who can advise homeowners and business owners on the right trees to plant, how to care for existing trees, and what to do about trees that appear to be sick or pose a safety threat. A consulting arborist may work with local landscape architects, investment property owners, city governments, developers, and other arborists.

An arborist may be able to save a dying tree. If you notice that your tree suddenly appears to be sick or is exhibiting unusual behavior, contact an arborist immediately. They will thoroughly inspect the tree to determine what might be wrong with it—and will let you know if it’s possible to save the tree and how to do it.

Verifying an arborist’s credentials is crucial for reliable tree care. Arborists must be licensed by their state and hold certifications from reputable organizations such as the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA). Request proof of licensing and certification, and review local recommendations to ensure you are hiring a professional who meets high industry standards and adheres to strict safety protocols.
