Like all the other yelpers, I was really impressed with how honest, knowledgeable, prompt, and professional Paul was. Great follow-up. We got many quotes and Paul's (Ca Tree Solutions) was the lowest. Only suggestion is to try to write a bit more neatly on the estimate. :-) (For full disclosure, we ended up using a different service because of something I was confused about that Paul has since explained when he followed up, but I almost chose them, and would definitely hire them in the future.) read more

California Tree Solutions did an excellent job pruning and thinning our four junipers. I recommend this company highly and would not hesitate to call them for future tree service. Paul was professional and reasonable. (Paul also noticed that my daughter's car's running lights had been left on and let me know. Before he left, he jump started her car enabling her to get to an appointment on time. #AboveandBeyond One of my neighbors was so impressed with the job Paul did that he asked for his contact information. He will be calling him as well. read more

I had a great experience with California Tree Solutions. I called to request a quote for removal of two trees and the call was answered on the first attempt. Paul set up an appointment for the same day and showed up exactly when he said he would. The quote was reasonable and we received a 10% discount for booking on the same day. A few days later, the crew arrived exactly as scheduled and removed both trees in about an hour. They cleaned up and were on their way in under two hours for the whole job. I was very impressed from quote to completion, and will definitely be using them in the future. read more

Have used em twice. Cannot recommend more highly. Excellent work at very good price. On-time performance. No dawdling. Got to work, and got it done. Ask for Paul. read more

I highly recommend California Tree Solutions. Paul and his team are very professional and they do excellent work. They removed a 100-foot Redwood Tree that was damaging our foundation and planted a smaller tree in its place. They will be removing two more large trees for us soon. read more

If you want tree work done without any hassles or complications, and an excellent job, contact Paul. Service as promised without the need for phone calls, emails, or texts. A 60 foot pine right on the property line, grown into the fence. No damage, no mess, just the tree there on Monday and gone on Wednesday. Excellent job. very refreshing to work with Paul and a company as professional as California Tree Solutions. read more

Omar is very polite and a gentleman - I asked for his help to take out these mini trees that were dying in our front yard and this was not part of our contract. And he did not hesitate to do that for me. The tree trimming job we hired them for - very professional and a well done job. We are very pleased with them and will hire them again and refer them to friends and family in a heart beat. They cleaned up afterwards very well as well. Thank you ! read more

I actually feel bad for not writing up this review for more than three months after they did a fantastic job with our huge redwood trees (some removed and others trimmed). Paul was very professional and responsive, the guys did a clean job and their service was overall exemplary. Their quote was the most competitive of all fully licensed arborists. I have been jumping to refer them to anyone who needs help with their tree care. It is no wonder they have all 5-star reviews. read more

Had a neighbors 40 year old avocado tree extending mostly into my yard potentially dropping avocados from 30 feet in the air on our cars or heads. This already happened on one of their cars breaking the windshield. I called Paul out to review how we could do a major trim without killing the tree or making it unbalanced. The neighbor joined us for the conversation. This was a situation where the neighbors had been talking for many months about doing something with the tree but nothing ever happened. I let them know that I was going to have bit done on my side with or without them. Paul discussed some options and wrote a quote. I told him to go ahead with my part and at the last minute the neighbors joined in and the whole job was done including a couple of other trees. The workers showed up on time and got the job done efficiently and cleaned up everything. I didn't get any other quotes and was satisfied with the price quoted and well as reading others reviews. read more

Spoke with Paul on July 2, and made an appointment for July 3. He provided an estimate and proof of insurance on the spot and scheduled the removal of a large half-dead maple tree for July 11. The tree is gone, and there is no cleanup required on my part! This is an excellent and professional organization. Service was prompt and efficient, and the quote was by far the best I received. I highly recommend California Tree Solutions for tree removal. read more

We had to remove four 30' tall trees from our front yard, with all of these trees overhanging a busy street. This was a complex operation, requiring a traffic encroachment permit, sidewalk closure from the town, and several obstacles that the crew had to navigate around. Paul's crew did a very professional job from start to finish. I hired the traffic control company that he recommended. They were expensive, but worth it for safety. Paul brought in heavy equipment (a very large loader truck and chipper as well as a bucket truck) and managed to get everything on site in our front yard without damaging our sidewalks, sprinklers, fence, or street trees. Amazing! The trees were removed and he sent someone the next day to grind the stumps as the job required. All debris was removed and the crew left our yard as clean as it was when they started. This was the lowest bidder of 5 (five!) bids that I got for this project. I wasn't sure because they don't have a large number of reviews. But I gave them a chance because they came recommended by another tree company and Paul gave me the impression I could trust his expertise. I tipped generously for a difficult job well done. read more

I had several large trees pruned in my back yard, I want to say, that I am very happy with the results. Could not believe how quickly they did the work, plus the price was good. Thank you Paul, for having a great crew. read more

I dont know what this Michelle K. Lady is talking about, but California Tree Solutions has done PLENTY of work for me and they do OUTSTANDING work. Paul is one of the most knowledgeable guys I have talked too. I have never had an issue with any of his guys thay are all professional. And I refer him to everyone that asks and they all say the same. California Tree Solutions is GREAT. read more

I agree with the other reviewers: California Tree Solutions offered a better price than other companies and they did an excellent job. Paul, the owner, and Eric, the foreman, were great to work with: both were very knowledgeable and professional in their demeanor. They did major trimming on a large elm, large sycamore, large avocado tree, and large orange tree. I am very happy with the result and highly recommend this company. read more

California Tree Solutions is the best choice I could have made! Paul, the owner, is really young and your first thought might be, "how can this guy be so knowledgeable at his age?". Well, I can tell you for a fact that he knows exactly what needs to be done whether you are removing trees, trimming or grinding stumps, etc. His crew is extremely professional and very nice. Each day that they left, it looked like they had "vacuumed" up my property. They were very careful not to destroy sprinklers and other plants. Paul gave me an extremely reasonable price...over half under other estimates I was given. They used top of the line equipment and were experts at removing trees in very tight situations on my property without hitting anything around the trees like the house, roof or my neighbors house. In the rare event that anything should occur, Paul carries all the necessary insurance to protect you and his crew. I highly recommend California Tree Solutions and will definitely call them again for any future needs! read more

I first saw Paul when he was cleaning up the neighborhood eyesore a few streets down from our house. In just one day, he had totally cleaned up that yard by removing dead bushes and trimming trees. I was so impressed that I stopped by and told him about a palm tree in front of our house that my husband had assured me would be impossible to move because the roots were too big. I'm a tree lover but this one had grown too close to our home and was beginning to cause damage. I was pleased when Paul stopped by that very same day and gave me a quote but was in shock when the tree was gone an hour later. Paul is a Godsend! This young man knows what he is doing and he doesn't waste time - his or yours. After he left, my husband and I talked about him for days - you can definitely feel his passion - he is knowledgeable about trees and plants and gave us expert advice for future landscaping. I highly recommend Paul and will definitely call him for my next project. Thanks Paul. read more

On Feb. 23, 2015, this company helped me to remove three big trees, more than 10 mid-size trees and a lot of bushes. Their price was very reasonable. Jobs were finished professionally. All trees are removed without hurting my house or my neighbor's houses or plants. Stumps are removed nicely. My yards were clean after their job. I would recommend this company without reservation. read more

We talked to Paul on Sunday evening and he came out the next morning and gave us a very good quote. I ended up going with someone else only because of availability. We had a boxelder tree infested with bugs of the same name which were getting in our house so needed it down ASAP meaning within a few days. Paul was very responsive and professional so I definitely recommend him. read more

Five stars is not enough. I'd like to give it ten stars. Paul and his crew did a wonderful job removing huge trees from my backyard. I highly recommend Paul and his wonderful team! read more

California Tree Solutions just removed a 60' tall Monterey pine tree from our backyard. The job was done clean, fast, and worry-free. Their price was also very reasonable. Highly recommend them to anyone who needs tree service. read more

I would highly recommend California Tree Solutions. Paul came out to give us a quote on a Saturday to trim 7 very tall Cypress trees along our driveway. I had several other quotes and Paul was very reasonable and competitive. His crew was back out the following Wednesday to do the job. Eric and the guys were very nice and extremely professional. They completed the job in 2 hours including all clean up. We couldn't be more pleased and will definately use them again for any future work we may need. Thank you!!! read more

I called Paul for an emergency, about mid day today I came home for lunch and noticed my huge ponderosa pine had completely blown over. So I found California Tree Solutions through the yellow pages. Paul said he would be out with a crew within an hour, within 45 mins Paul was there with a Big truck and a bobcat and his crew. They cut the tree up into peices and hauled off a truck full of wood. The reason I knocked off a star was because he couldn't come back today to haul off the rest, he said he will return tomorrow early to pick up the branches he left behind whichI'm sure he will. Overall I am very IMPRESSED with the quality of work, and they cleaned up well even knowing they will come back tomorrow. I will be using them in the future and I recomend him to anyone needing any kind of tree service, His emergency services are great! and the price was fair, Great job CALIFORNIA TREE SOLUTIONS!!! read more

I had a fig tree that fell over (rotten at the base) and an oak tree that needed to have branches cut and/or trimmed (to lighten the weight on top). A team of three guys showed up right on time and did an excellent job cutting up the fig tree, had a wood chipper, and a stump grinder guy showed up to take care of the fig tree stump. The oak tree trimmed out looks great. Paul came by to check on the job midway. I watched the job from start to finish, and was very impressed with the team work and the clean up at the end. I would highly recommend California Tree Solutions. read more

I needed six palm trees trimmed and one removed. The six palms are 75ft tall and were in bad shape with over-growth and old branches. Paul and team were excellent! Very knowledgeable and hard working. These guys know what they are doing. After having to scale up six palms, cut down another, chop up the downed palm, and clean up the epic mess the other six made when trimming them; when they were completely done with the job, they left no trace behind them. Paul and his team are my 'go-to' for all my tree needs. Quality, professional, and customer service. You won't be sorry! read more

We shopped for a tree company that could help us out with a large palm tree in the back. Paul was very professional, knowledgable, and detail oriented. He answered our questions to our satisfaction. Of the multiple tree companies I spoke with, Paul and his company will definitely be one of my go-to guys! read more

This company is great!!! I called many others to get quotes on the removal of an old Pine tree that was well over 75 feet high and the beat out all other prices by a TON! Not only were they cheaper but quick & super professional. I highly recommend giving this company a call, you wont be disappointed. read more

I talked with a quite a few companies about removing some invasive trees and I went with Paul because of his expertise on explaining how he would remove the trees safely from a slope and offered a very fair price on top of that. His crew was also great and they brought in a crane to take down the biggest tree and grinded away the stumps so it looks like the trees were never there. They got it all hauled away and cleaned up within a day too. Amazing work and I'm glad I hired Paul and his company. read more

Just finished my palm tree cutting yesterday. They did a great job for removing, cutting, grinding and cleaning works in my back yard. Tks.

We had 4 trees and 2 stumps in our backyard that needed removing. When I called other tree removal companies, most didn't even bother to call me back. One of them that did straight up told me that he only takes large jobs. Apparently, my business wasn't good enough for some people. Luckily I found California Tree Solutions. Paul came out, was very knowledgeable about the trees we had (the types and condition they were in), and was completely licensed and insured. I even checked BBB to make sure the company history had no complaints and it was clean. His rate was reasonable and his crew did an outstanding job cleaning up the yard. Highly recommend! read more

They are the best. The job was done in a fraction of the time other people would need. They are skillful and happy guys. The whole process impressed many of my neighbors. read more

Our birch trees died because of drought and during a windy day one of those trees fell on our house. No damage to the house (thankfully) but there were 3 others waiting to fall...I phoned California Tree Solutions. Very polite, professional and prompt. Paul was informative and his prices were fair. The crew was awesome and cleaned after tree and stump removal. I would recommend their service anytime. Thank you guys!!! read more

Paul and his crew where at our house today. We have many trees of all sorts and they have all been trimmed and look beautiful. We have used California Tree Solutions on several occasions and always been happy with the results. read more

I used California Tree Solutions a couple of times, for the removal of few trees, including a very large Pine, for tree pruning and the treaming of a palm tree. Paul and his crew were professional and knowledgeable, completed the jobs on time and left my property clean. I am sure I will use their services in the future. read more

We care tree care which is a 5 star tree services ( I used them 2x ) recommended me this company. I called them and on that same day Paul came to my house and gave me a quote which is I think reasonable. He is going to remove 1 big tree in our front yard and trim couple of trees in the backyard. I ask him if it is legal to cut that big tree he says we can get away with it as long as nobody will inform the city. he ask me to sign a contract and went on his way. After discussing the job to my wife we decided to keep the tree . We were afraid that the city will fined us. So i called Paul the very next day after I sign the contract and cancelled the appointment ( the whole job ) I was surprised to hear from him that he wanted to take me to a small court for canceling the job . I know I sign a contract but I read the contract and it doesn't state there that you cannot cancel the contract Paul did not mention to me either that I cannot cancel the contract before I sign them. So after talking back and forth with the issue the suing part ends after I let him cut 1 of our tree ( which is a little expensive to me cuz it's a small tree ) I will not deny that they did a good job , but overall to me it's all about the money. **This review is a late review. ** read more

I have used Paul and his team for two very large projects. Last year, he removed three 20 year old 50 foot ashes that were collapsing on themselves due to improper care by previous owners. Then, last month, I needed to remove a 40 foot tall river birch that I lost due to the drought. The jobs were difficult, and Paul and his team did a simply fantastic job. They were professional, courteous, and cleaned up so well, it was almost impossible to tell that there had been huge trees removed. Stumps were ground sufficiently so that I could replant, and chips were completely cleaned away. Paul also was extremely helpful in advising on what trees would be reasonable replacements, from a drought, height, fast-growing, etc. standpoint. He clearly is an educated expert on California trees. Finally, the first job I bid out to three different tree services: Paul's was by far the cheapest bid by a huge margin. If you need tree work done, I cannot recommend Paul or his team more highly. Hire them. read more
