Recently, we hired them for a major project: removing 3 trees, pruning 17+ trees, trimming a hedge, and some other tasks. Diana was very helpful and professional - she explained the work clearly and offered us multiple options at a reasonable price. I really appreciate how she took the time to help us understand the trees' conditions and the needed work. Once we decided on a plan, she coordinated quickly with her crew, led by Manfredy. I expected this to take several days, but the entire team finished the job in one day. Our trees look revived, and we are very happy with their work. I highly recommend them!

He did an estimate on the same day in the afternoon. I was very pleased with his pricing and went ahead with Jose. There were two estimates as I am not sure if I can afford the landscaping work; one was to clean up then after it was clean up I shared with him the style I like which is low maintenance by adding small rocks as shown in the insert. I am pleased with his work and his team.

She's especially skilled at her aesthetic pruning of Japanese Maples. Mine look beautiful, and are very happy. Judy brings the design and horticultural knowledge--that true care of gardens--that are far beyond typical mow and blow. Organic products and green solutions, which I value, are part of the service. Her foreman, Jesus, is great to work with... helpful, positive and very accommodating of the additional pruning, irrigation work and adjustments that a small garden like mine needs. Just give her a call. I'm glad I did!

I am a huge and enthusiastic fan of Judy's Gardens & Design…read more Landscape designer Judy Maier generated and executed for me an aesthetically pleasing, thoughtfully imaginative, and economically practical re-design plan for front, side and rear yard spaces of my Old Palo Alto home. Judy's landscape design--faithful to but not confined by my 80-year-old home's Cape Cod architectural style--delivered an enormous breath of fresh air to the property as well as reducing water consumption needs. Two impressive examples of Judy's magic were her (1) locating and reserving for me a raft of huge hard-to-find camellias and (2) artfully pruning and trimming two sizable flowering trees, contributing to the transformation of the front yard. Her capable crew expertly and expeditiously implemented Judy's designs. I'm using Judy for landscape projects on rental units I own.

I got 3 bids and Roy's bid was the only one that was a fair and honest price -- based on the job itself, not on our zipcode. Roy and his crew did an excellent job. They even relocated our Mexican sage bush that had grown too close to the fence. It was a pleasure working with Roy and his positive "can do" attitude. Even our neighbors have commented that our front yard looks great. I will definitely use Roy's services again and refer him to friends.

If you own property in the Bay Area, you already know tree bids can get... aspirational…read more I've used EC Tree Service three times over five years -- everything from removing multiple 50-year flowering pear trees to taking out three tall birches to regular roofline trims so my insurance doesn't panic. Edwin's estimates are straightforward and fair. No "we'll reassess once we're up there." The number stays the number. I've also priced the larger companies (including The Davey Tree Expert Company), and the difference wasn't subtle. EC came in literally 3-4x less. Same clean cuts. Same haul-away. Same spotless yard. They show up. They move fast. They clean everything. In a region where contractor pricing sometimes feels venture-backed, Edwin is refreshingly old-school.

Even though it was Christmas Day, Elmer showed up within 30 minutes and provided an extremely fair and honest estimate. His crew arrived about 30 minutes later and completed the job promptly and professionally. They were very careful with our clay tile roof while removing the large branch and also took the time to prune all the weak branches from the tree to prevent future issues. Everything was done safely, efficiently, and with great attention to detail. It was a pleasure working with them during a stressful situation, and I truly appreciated their responsiveness and professionalism--especially on a holiday. I would highly recommend EC Tree Service to anyone in need of tree work.

Updated review: I wouldn't recommend this company for biweekly maintenance…read more We worked with Fortino and his team for about eight months, starting from the initial clean-up. Although they consistently showed up for scheduled visits, the attention to detail was lacking. Each visit lasted max ten minutes, and the work performed was minimal--primarily leaf cleanup, mowing, and basic shrub trimming. Weed control is listed as an included service, but this was not done consistently. In several instances, I was informed that weed control had been completed when it hadn't, which I confirmed through my exterior security cameras. Communication was also slow and often unresponsive; I frequently had to send follow-up texts just to get a reply. Ultimately, we have decided to discontinue the service.

Now his team comes twice a month and helps us keep our yards clean and tidy. Definitely recommend.
