The kind of tree and branch that makes you hold your breath during the winter storms. The second was a giant eucalyptus which had never been trimmed in 50 years. Trees Company listened to our concerns and wishes, proposed a plan and submitted a bid. The team showed up on time, quickly but safely moving up and out among the branches, removing large branches and trimming throughout to open the tree both to light and breezes. Equally important, they were careful of the neighbors' yards and concerns and did a brilliant job of cleaning and removing the considerable debris. We could not be more satisfied. Highly recommended.

Not an easy job…read more Urban Arborist knows their trees and does an excellent job communicating the best course of action. Price was reasonable and his crew hard working. I have read other reviews which were not as supportive as this one, and truth be told most of those poor reviews are the result of the client not understanding the delicate 'dance' between the city and arborist companies and not understanding what is best for the tree, as communicated by the specialist. Don't tell the doctor to remove your liver because you think its the right thing to do.

I met with 12 arborists before finding Urban Arborist, and I'm so glad I did. Mark and his crew are…read moreabsolute pros. Now that our project is complete, I can confidently say they'll be my go-to for any future tree removal or pruning. Our project was tough--a huge, termite-infested tree overhanging two neighbors' properties with only access through the house. While others suggested risky or pricey options (like a crane over the house) or couldn't guarantee our deck would be undamaged, Mark carefully inspected the tree, explained how his team would safely approach the removal, and gave me confidence they could get it done without incident. He also provided the most detailed--and accurate--quote I received, and even offered thoughtful advice on how to work smoothly with neighbors. What really sets Urban Arborist apart: * Clear, detailed planning and communication (worlds apart from the others!) * Equipment that fits tight spaces without damage * Experience with tricky removals where access is only through the home * Professionalism with insurance and paperwork * A fair, competitive price The crew--Cipriano, Pedro, and Robert--worked hard, protected the deck, cleaned up thoroughly, and even set aside a few wood slabs for us to keep. Neighbors were just as impressed as we were. Mark checked in throughout the day and is not only professional and detail-oriented, but also a genuinely kind person who made the whole process stress-free. Beyond his professionalism, Mark is genuinely a kind and thoughtful person, which made the entire experience that much better. Urban Arborist exceeded my expectations on every front: professionalism, skill, communication, and care. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for tree removal or pruning.

I knew him from a local establishment where I am fortunate to be a welcome customer. He swept in immediately and chopped the branch (tree) into usable kindling that I use to this day. He brought in expert craftsmen, with no referral fee or extra money requested to replace a section of fence that to this day looks as though no accident ever happened. He also referred me to a local arborist who confirmed all of the next steps with the tree still standing. There are branches remaining that could take out parts of my home, or my neighbors home, and decisions had to be made. Murph wanted a second opinion, and the arborist mirrored exactly what he thought, The bill was too fair. He would not accept more. I still feel guilty. Pat Murphy is skilled, and has integrity. If you need service on your tree, advice on how to maintain, care for, or treat your tree, there is no one better.

And he cleaned up and hauled off all debris. I would recommend his services with a big YES! You won't be sorry.

The workers were respectful of the gardens surrounding the trees and generally friendly and considerate. I would highly recommend that you consider Humbolt Tree Service when you need a competent tree pruning or removal service.

The cost of this project was much less expensive than other estimates that we were given. A definite plus. The four men who did the job were incredible. The fellow who worked up the trunk of the tree, cutting branches one by one, was precise, fast, and amazing. It was a BIG tree. It's hard to describe how pleasant the workers were. They worked SO hard, and each of them was very strong. I personally know no one who could carry those huge pieces of wood. They were immense! The guys remained cheerful. Another plus. I cannot recommend this company highly enough. I look forward to their continued success.

They removed old bushes and trees, installed beautiful artificial turf, created a clean plant border, and cemented a few patches to give us a perfectly flat, usable space.

I want to sincerely thank Green Valley Landscaping Services for the outstanding work they completed…read moreon my property. From the initial estimate to final completion, the entire experience was smooth, professional, and extremely positive. They completed several major projects for me, including new fencing, new wire fences, new concrete stairs for a retaining wall, a new handrail for the retaining wall, and a new wood entrance staircase. The level of craftsmanship is excellent across every detail. Everything is solid, well-built, properly aligned, and clearly designed to last. The finished work significantly improved both the safety and overall appearance of my property. In addition to the construction work, they handled major tree cutting, including the removal of several large trees in my backyard. What once felt like a dense forest has now been completely transformed into an open, bright space. After the tree cutting and clearing, the backyard opened up to clear skies and natural sunlight, dramatically changing the feel of the entire area. The transformation was impressive and made the space far more usable and enjoyable. The concrete stairs and retaining wall work were especially impressive. The steps are clean, level, and professionally constructed, and the handrail adds both safety and a polished, finished look. The wood entrance staircase looks fantastic and immediately enhances curb appeal. The fencing and wire fences were installed neatly and securely with great attention to detail. I also want to mention that the rain started the day after the work was completed, so the photos don't fully do justice to how good everything looks in person. Please excuse the rainy weather in the pictures--the timing was unfortunate, but the actual workmanship is far better than what the photos show. Another highlight was the estimate and pricing. Their quote was very fair and transparent, and the results are truly worth every penny. Some might even say you're getting top-tier craftsmanship at under-market pricing--in the best way, haha. It's rare to find this level of quality at such a reasonable cost. Green Valley Landscaping Services was professional, reliable, and easy to work with. They communicated clearly, showed up as scheduled, and made sure everything was completed properly before wrapping up. It's clear they take pride in their work and genuinely care about customer satisfaction. I highly recommend Green Valley Landscaping Services to anyone looking for high-quality fencing, concrete stairs, retaining walls, handrails, wood stair construction, or major tree cutting and clearing. I am extremely happy with the results and would absolutely hire them again.
