    Kelly's crew setting in our new trees.

    Kelly and his team did a great job *really* grinding out an existing stump that another vendor had done half-way, and then planted two new trees for us. They did a spectacular job, and the new trees are doing great! Couldn't be happier.

    End result of a 5ft stump grind, before dirt removal.

    Kelly personally came out and did the quote and as well as on job day, and was the only one out of the 3 providers I shopped for that mentioned how the stumps may be over water and gas lines. They got PG&E to come out and mark the gas line and Kelly did a pre-grind dig to get a feel of the gas line depth and exact location. They also patiently heard my various concerns and laid down plywood and used a smaller machine for the stump by the AstroTurf so the fake grass would not be too pressured by the machine weight. Quick in and out, got the job done well! If there is anything to nitpick, it would be scheduling took about 3 days to get back to me, but other than that color me impressed! It was not even a large job, just 2 stumps.

    The shrubs that he talked me into saving (THANK YOU!!)

    Kelly responded and worked quickly. I told him it would be ok if he backed his large machinery onto my lawn which would certainly destroy some shrubs and lawn area. However, he talked me out of this course of action and he unloaded a smaller piece of equipment and knocked out the stump in less than 30 minutes. In all honesty, it may have been quicker but I was too fascinated by the skill in which he worked the machinery and eliminated an eyesore that had been there for a few years. I had concerns about the window nearby but he put up those boards and voilà! On a scale of 1 (Poor) - 10 (Excellent) Professional: 10 Polite: 10 Informative: 10 Courteous: 10 Responsive: 10 I seriously can't talk up my experience with Kelly enough. He was a Godsend.

    This is what a bad stump job looks like in case you have never seen one by Kelly's stump removal.

    Updates on June 26. After my negative review on Yelp, Kelly reached out to us immediately and worked with us to resolve this. He charged us a minimal fee to correct the bad stump and I gave him two more stumps to grind on the same day since I know running a business during this pandemic is very challenging and I appreciate he came back to resolve the issue. --- We used Kelly's Stump Removal to remove three stumps and had really bad experience. First they broke the pipe and hided it with the mulch that they thought we would never discovered. I took a photo of the guy trying to repair the pipe, and when I asked, is some wrong, he said "nothing" and hided it with the stump grindings. So, when my water sprinkler was on the next morning, the water pipe was bursting. Luckily it was a simple repair with some glue from Home Depot. Second, we discovered last week that not only the broken pipe issue but they left a quarter of the stumps under the wood chips. Since that discovery, I have contacted their office and called/texted Kelly's Stump Removal to show them the photo but got no response. Full of regrets to use this company and they don't stand behind their work. The only one positive feedback is the lady who picked up the phone has a nice voice and she booked you right away to get the ball rolling. Don't get tricks.

    Kelly came out himself to bid the job, walked me through what was needed gave me an estimate on the spot. The office followed up and scheduled the crew earlier than planned due to a cancellation. Kelly's crew came out and worked in the rain to tackle a difficult job with multiple stumps in a planter against our deck. All had to be done with the handheld grinder. They worked carefully to not damage the deck or planter and even kept debris out of our pool. Everything was done in a professional manner and the site was left neat and tidy. Would highly recommend Kelly's Stump Removal.

    Pine tree and plumb tree I had Kelly remove.

    Javier from JC Tree Experts came to give us a quote on pruning two citrus tress. We were impressed…read moreby his professionalism and clear knowledge of the task at hand. Of all the companies that provided quotes, JC Tree Experts was the most detailed. Some simply scribbled a price on their business card, but JC Tree Experts emailed a detailed quote explaining exactly what work was included, debris hauled away, etc., photos of the trees to be worked on, arborist certification, and even their insurance certificate as evidence that the company and their employees were covered in the event of accident or injury on our property. This was by far more than any other company provided, and it was a clear indication of their level of professionalism. Theirs was not the lowest quote, but was much more reasonable than some. They arrived as scheduled to do the work - in fact, a little early. It was a large crew with two large trucks and a wood chipper. The crew confirmed the expectations with us and set to work. They were all cheerful and friendly, but worked quite efficiently, completing the work in less than an hour. They did a great job on the trees, cleaned up all the debris completely, and even used a blower to make sure they didn't miss anything. I wholeheartedly recommend JC Tree Experts. They simply could not have done a better job!

    Update: and this is exactly why I wait to post reviews where I feel customer service is lacking…read more The owner tracked down my personal number from a 2024 service record to text me and challenge this review. This is exactly why I waited to post--I find this level of monitoring and personal contact highly invasive and unprofessional. Hired this company to remove a tree. First of all, I know it's a very demanding business and risky at that. And things come up all the time, but what is unacceptable is accountability. I had an appointment and the day of the person was nowhere to be seen. I could not get a hold of Xavier. He finally responded after numerous calls. I have several friends in this business and they said that they at least apologize when they over schedule and things come up. Again, I understand this. But at least apologize for the lack of communication. An apology goes a long way!

Gary first visited and gave a thoughtful explanation of recommended work. He also connected us with an arborist to consult on some of our struggling trees, which was very helpful. We had many trees that needed significant trimming and/or shaping (in part due to poor work done by a previous company) as well as stumps to be removed. Sergio and his team did a great job, clearly had attention to detail, and communicated well as we discussed the plan - expressing their ideas clearly but also listening to feedback. One of the challenges I've seen with some other companies is the owner talks a good game but the crew isn't at the same level.
