"Aly came on a Thursday to give an estimate and had 2 workers out the next day. They helped remove the trunk of a citrus tree that I couldn't get out myself along with trimming and orange tree and the neighbors trees that were coming over on our side which was encroaching on wires. Both the communication and work done were excellent."

Customers say: True professional

"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."

"Everything was smooth, impressive and very professional. 
Carlos came when he said he would; the quoting process was clear and easy; he returned when he said he would and he and his partner removed the tree carefully and safely.  All materials were removed and the yard was left clean and beautiful.  Watching the art and science of him carefully and skillfully bring down a very tall, narrow tree safely was reminiscent of watching a controlled 'building implosion' video.  It was very interesting to watch the techniques employed for each of the major branches.

"PMC Tree Service was great.  My  request for a quote was answered promptly and they were able to schedule the work for two days later.  
They verified our permit and trimmed our overgrown street tree.  It is now beautifully shaped and no longer in danger of branches breaking off in a storm.  Another tree that was too close to the house was removed and two additional stumps were ground down.  I highly recommend PMC.  They arrived on time, work was performed with a minimum of disruption and noise and they cleaned up thoroughly afterwards.    Crew was so nice and professional.

"Nato came on a Thursday and did an initial estimate. He was very clear that the garden would look a little bare for a few weeks as he'd have to cut things back pretty far. His estimate was 1/2 that of the other companies we talked to, and he was willing to come on the weekends, which made things much easier for us. He came back just three days later (on a Saturday) and two of his men spent 8 hours here. They left with a truck overflowing with trimmings, and even removed a small tree for us. Nato supervised them at the beginning and end, and the team was great to work with (we were working in the front yard while they were in the back) - extremely helpful and courteous. Total bill was just what he said - $500. We also gave each of the two guys a tip (though we were never asked to do so and I didn't even detect a hint of expecting one). The cleanup looks great though, as he cautioned, things are a little barren while we wait for them to grow back. For large cleanup jobs, this company is excellent. Though I use an all organic company for regular maintenance now (I would use Nato if I was not so into organic gardening), I will certainly call Nato and his team for the next large job. Highly recommend."

"Now that it's done, there's not a day goes by that I'm not thrilled I hired Melvin to update my gardening! We struggled to grow grass, and we wanted a space that would accommodate a a small garden, as well as a dining and sitting area. Urizar Landscaping redid our front and back yards, and was able to help me pull out our grass, too! In its place is a gorgeous colorful garden with a quaint stone path that runs from one end to another. His workers were courteous and hard-working and the work was done well and efficiently, including removing the day lily, roses, dead sections of the bamboo and all the palm, as well as non-bamboo vegetation among the bamboo from the roots so they would not grow back."

"A&Y Performed a tree removal for me. It was approximately an 80-foot tree very close to my house and backyard deck. I was a bit nervous as I had seen "TREE Fails" on YouTube. Their insurance was current and complete so that helped my nervousness:) The crew arrived on time and had the tree removed by noon. I was very impressed and highly recommend A&Y for tree removal. They left the worksite clean and split the rounds and stacked the wood for me (I wanted it for firewood). I felt the price was fair and the customer service was excellent. I would absolutely hire this company again. Thank you Yohana:)"

FAQs for tree service projects in Capitola, CA

Professionals remove shrubs by first cutting back the branches using tools like pruning shears or chainsaws for thicker stems. They then cut the base close to the ground and dig around the root system to remove the roots completely, preventing regrowth. Finally, they’ll ensure proper disposal of branches and debris while complying with local regulations.

A bush stump will regrow if any portion of its root system remains. When even a small section of roots is left behind, new shoots emerge and regenerate the bush with leggy, spreading growth. Working with a professional landscaper ensures the complete removal of the stump and all roots, which is essential to prevent any regrowth, ensuring that the area remains clear and maintenance is minimized.
