Fausto came with his crew and did a fantastic job! They came to take down a palm tree and grind the stump. I was surprised on how quick they completed the job. Their experience and professionalism definitely showed with their work. The pricing is also competitive and reasonable. One of the main reasons I hired them was because they did have insurance in the case there's any possible damage to a structure and worker's comp, which is something other companies that quoted me didn't have. It's better safe than sorry in my perspective. I would definitely hire them again! read more

I contacted Holla Oak to schedule a consultation for a quote to trim/remove 3 big elm trees in my backyard. Communication was amazing from the start. When Fausto came over, we discussed what can be done and he gave suggestion to save me money in a long term instead of trying to sell his services. The cost of removing the trees and stump grinding were reasonable so we agreed to it. It took Fausto and his assitant 2 days from 8am-3pm to finish the job. Overall, I was extremely happy with the service and glad I came across Holly Oak. Highly recommend! Thanks Fausto for your honesty and above and beyond services!! read more

Excellent work by Fausto and his team. Thank you for trimming down the big tree. Tree was huge and his team took it to a more manageable size. See you in a year or two to cut it again. Highly recommend Holly Oak Arbor read more

Fausto and Vanessa made this task a dream to be completed. Project took 5 days to complete within the first estimate. Their team was professional and quick. I was amazed as to how quick the work was completed. The attention to detail and communication was as above standard. Local in the South Bay area and with over 30 years experience, well priced beyond competitive. I will use them again should I be planting trees in the future. read more

Fausto removed two giant pine trees (60ft+) that were at risk of falling on my house. He did a fantastic job. I will definitely use him again for tree trimming and removal. read more

I contacted Holly Oak through Yelp messaging and they scheduled an arborist to come out that same day. The arborist, Fausto, was great. He looked at the tree and explained the issues for a tree that wasn't growing at all. He suggested planting a different tree (they don't offer planting so he wasn't trying to sell me on a service), and we discussed several trees that would work well in my yard. He said they could help prune and take care of the tree once the new tree had a chance to start growing and get established, which could be 1-2 years. Fausto was really great and obviously didn't pressure me into paying for services that I didn't need. They didn't charge for the initial consultation. This company is now on my list of professionals to call when needed. They are so clearly trustworthy. read more

After calling and Fausto met us in 30 min to give us an estimate which was reasonable and the next day he and his crew came and cut down a 30ft mexican palm and a large pine tree. We had been clearly alot of branches and leaves and scrubs which they took for us saving a big fee for a rollaway. Then they also cut down another tree that was block our solar roof. I would recommend to anyone needing this service read more

Made an appointment for Fausto to show up on a Thursday between 4 and 6pm; he was also supposed to call or text when he was on his way. No call or text, never showed up. At 6pm I called the office, nobody there so I left a message. Waste of my afternoon- a friend had asked if I could help her host an event at 5pm and I told her no, that I needed to wait at home for Holly Oak. Very frustrating. I gave them 2 starts instead of 1 just because the girl who originally made the appointment seemed nice and professional. I guess I'm glad to know they're flakey before I considered hiring them and giving them money, but it was annoying to waste my afternoon. UPDATE: Just missed a call from Holly Oak after they saw this review. She left a very nice message apologizing, saying she sent a text message on Thursday to the wrong phone number (no idea what the text message said but if they were cancelling wouldn't a phone call make more sense?) Also she clearly had the right phone number to just call and leave me a voicemail... AND she only called at all after seeing my yelp review many days after I called to say they never showed up. So who knows what actually happened but what I do know is that they seem nice but not reliable enough to hire. read more

Hey Yelp Fellow Yelp Followers. So this was my first time using Holly Oak and they did a great job. They started a little later then agreed upon but it all worked out in the end. They cut down my entire California Pepper and trimmed my Ficus. They took protective measures at the start covering up fencing and my wall partition. Upon completion they did a fantastic job cleaning up my slope and my back yard. I jump in there as well just to get those extra nook and cranny's. They were also very affordable and beat out 3 other quotes. Would definitely use them again. read more

Holly Oak Arbor Care was great from the start. Fausto evaluated our needs and gave professional advice which helped us make informed choices for our service. His estimate was given on the spot and came in as the best we received out of three. The crew was here on time, and finished in a timely manner. They also left the grounds cleaner than when they arrived! Can't say enough of how pleased we are with their service. We highly recommend Holly Oak for your landscape needs - you won't be disappointed! read more

Very responsive. Good communication, easy scheduling. Showed up as scheduled and was done quickly. Clean up was great and trees look wonderful. Friendly staff. read more

Project: We had small 3 palm trees in the front yard that needed to be removed completely. Fausto and his team were such a pleasure to deal with. He came at the agreed upon date and time and removed all palm trees without damaging the retaining wall. I greatly appreciated that he and his team cleaned up well. His rate was reasonable compared to other people I contacted. He was also communicative and let me know when the job was complete. If I could highlight anything about doing business with Fausto, it was probably how he treated the property when removing the trees. It was refreshing to see someone take great care in the job they do. I respect that whole heartedly. I will definitely use them again or recommend them to friends. read more

They are a licensed tree company and cut my trees down for a fair price and hauled it all away. I will definitely use them again when needed. read more

THE BEST IN THE WEST!! During the Hillary storm this past Sunday, Aug 20, a big tree in my front yard came crashing down. I started contacting over 9 tree companies to give me a bid on cleaning it up. I received some responses, some no responses, a couple no show/no call, and FAUSTO. He was the last one I had scheduled for Monday, Aug 21. He gave me his bid w/o a lot of hemming and hawing, it was very reasonable and was in the middle the other bids I had received. He is a Certified Arborist, Fully Licensed, and Bonded. Right away I was impressed by his knowledge and professionalism, so I chose him. FAUSTO and his team came today (Friday), they were right on time, did a fabulous job cleaning up everything quickly, everyone was responsive and a pleasure to deal with. I am soooo pleased I found Holly Oak Arbor Care. FAUSTO is a prince and I will have him and his crew continue to do more work at my place b/c I have a LOT of trees that always need trimming. Do yourself a favor, if you need tree care ... don't stress. FAUSTO is a gentleman and the real deal. You will not be disappointed. :-)))) read more

Fausto and his team are the best. When trimming our date palms they even picked up every date seed from the ground below the tree. Also when they trim olives they actually shape and maintain the character of the tree rather than the cheap chainsaw method. I cannot recommend holly oak arbor care enough! Hire them!! read more

Fausto and his team were great! I got an immediate estimate and was able to schedule my appointment right away. I haven't had my trees trimmed in 6 years because I was afraid of someone damaging my trees or surrounding garden. The team did a wonderful job at lacing all the trees and cleaned up everything nicely and didn't damage any of the surrounding succulents or shrubs. Would definitely hire him again! read more

This is my 3rd time using this company. Every time I have used their services I am left beyond satisfied. They do great work in getting rid of trees and shrubbery you don't want and also are awesome with the clean up. Thank you so much. read more

Excellent, professional service at a very reasonable rate. I would recommend Fausto and his team to anyone. Fausto is very knowledgeable and was willing to discuss any questions I had, and to offer suggestions to me. He and his team provided a very careful, thorough trimming of a large tree and of additional smaller trees in my yard. They also left the yard and patio very very well cleaned and attended to before they left, and all were friendly and courteous with me. Fausto and Holly Oak Arbor more than exceeded my expectations! You are fortunate if you can arrange to receive his services! read more

EXCEPTIONAL SERVICE! Fausto came out to give us an estimate within 24 hrs of contacting their office. We were looking for the most budget friendly options and his knowledge/input on how we can keep the cost down but still get rid of the jungle of a mess we had growing in the backyard of our new home was one of the top reasons why we went with Holly Oak Arbor Care. Even after receiving numerous competitive bids, his attention to detail and overall compassion for our needs is what sold us. Fausto & his crew worked so hard and efficiently throughout the 2 days even through the heatwave! Clearing out our entire hillside in our backyard that was filled with HUGE trees, bushes, dried weeds, etc. They were respectful of our property, cleaned up thoroughly each day and afterwards we could not believe our eyes! We almost didn't recognize our yard and could not believe how much space we now have!! We have already recommended Fausto and his crew to our friends and family whom are also in need of tree services. Holly Oak Arbor Care will now be our go-to for trimming and tree maintenance when it is that time again. Thank you all so much again! read more

Family-owned & operated tree service with over 20 yrs of experience. Fausto Meza is the owner & he arrived the same day I telephoned the company for an estimate. He was prompt, professional, offered guidance & provided a written estimate so there'd be no surprises. Compared with several competing estimates for the project, Fausto's price was very fair. I'd seen his work throughout the community, and I was happy to hire him to work on my mother's home. We got an appointment the same week. The Holly Oak crew arrived promptly at noon & worked efficiently to reduce trees, shape hedges, and cut back overgrown brush & thickets in both the front & back yards. The results were so impressive, the neighbors hired Holly Oak on the spot to continue work over their property line! Mom's panoramic ocean view opened up again for the first time in 20 years. The crew was thorough, fast, used their own chipper & hauled away all the brush & debris. Couldn't be happier with the results!!! read more

I posted my project and went through at least 8-9 prospective contractors. Holly Oak Arbor Care stood out because they responded to me quickly and over a federal holiday weekend!!! They are also a family owned and operated business with over 20 years of experience and it shows!! The job was huge. The tree encroached into my rear neighbor's yard and partially in my neighbor next to me. The tree was leaning and had become a hazard. Fausto came out on a Monday and gave me an amazing estimate. We agreed on removal with poisoning of the stump. He was able to get me in within 4 days of the estimate. When Fausto and the team arrived for removal he was exactly on time of the designated time stated. There was no waiting and they immediately got to work. They finished the job in one day ....actually 6 hours when one contractor told me it would take 2 days **eyeroll**. Holly Oak Arbor will definitely have my business for all if my future Arbor needs. Best company hands down. Extremely professional and the knowledge of their craft it boundless. Use only this company!!!! read more

Holly Oak Arbor Care - Canary Date Palm removal - Tree Services Near Me

I wish I didn't have to give 3 stars to this company as I thought they provided a great service before and I had no problem giving them a 5 star at the time. I have a large tree that is getting rotted and needs to be cut down in my front yard. I called Holly Oak first since I thought they would do a good job again. I left them a message to call me but didn't hear back for two days. I called again and asked to let me know even if they were not interested since they were my top choice but I'd contact others if they couldn't provide the service. I still didn't hear back. When I requested a quote through Yelp, they were automatically added for multiple bids request. Holly Oak was the only one who didn't respond again. So I am not sure what is going on with this business. It looks like either they are not in business anymore or they are just too busy to take a new job. In addition, after they trimmed my lemon tree a few years ago, it completely stopped producing lemons. At the time, there were lots of flowers that would turn into lemons, so I asked them if it was a right time to trim it. They said it would be just fine and chopped large branches. Since then, it has not produced lemons at all. One of the tree service companies that came over to give me a quote this time said the large branches were not supposed to be chopped like they did. They were supposed to reduce the volume by trimming smaller branches so the tree gets more sun and air inside. So I won't use this company if you are dealing with fruit trees. They did a great job cutting down my large palm tree, however. read more

What can I add that has not been already said. Gave us a good estimate came on time, protected everything with tarps and plywood and did a beautiful job on a hard and nasty piece of tree trimming. Cleaned up and left the place looking great. read more
