Reviews With Photos - La Costa Tree Service & Maintenance

Pedro is a gem!! And so is Andrea!! The people in La Costa Tree Service were really good. I got quotes from 3 different companies but their price was the best. They came in the following day; did the job fast and we were very happy with the service. They are very efficient and cleaned up really good after the tree was cut!

I had Pedro over to give us some advice on which root removal, for which he gave no charge. He was very prompt, and didn't try for any hard sell. I went ahead and had his crew remove a small tree and prune 2 more trees. They are extremely prompt and efficient, showing up the next day! Few weeks later I liked the job the did so much I had them back to remove 2 more trees, and trim the rest of my 6 trees! They did an excellent job of trimming my overgrown yard!

About 6-8 months ago, Pedro installed some grass in my front yard. It's a small area, about 200 sq ft. They also had to relocate a few sprinkler heads. The next day one of the heads broke. They did come out later that week to fix. The grass looked good for about 1 month. I water regularly and used the recommended fertilizer. The real problem is my grass is now dying. After various calls/text over the last month, Pedro advised he would come out and look......nothing to date, now he will not return my calls. I decided to hire True Green to see what they can do. The tech came out today and advised that they installed the wrong grass in my front yard!! rye grass and it looks horrible. its a cold weather grass....we live in San Diego!! WTH.....Fun times!!

La Costa Tree Service removed some larger trees and pruned and trimmed others. They were everything one could wish for from a contractor: punctual, responsive, reliable, proactive, clean, safe. Climbers wore the required PPE to keep the job safe for them (and us). The pricing was very reasonable and fair given the quality and package we got. I'm adding some before-after pictures. I would recommend this company for every tree work, small or big. We are a happy customer.

Palm tree stump in the back yard

Pedro and his crew did great work removing a couple stumps on a Saturday morning for me. Clean work and highly recommended. When he quoted me, he said the process will take about two hours but they actually knocked out both stumps in about an hour! Out of four quotes and he came in the lowest and he was even able to book me for the next day, which was a Saturday They wore mask and socially distanced when we spoke. Amazing job!

Our view is gone
Walter T.

My neighbor and I missed the view we use to have, however the owner of the home below us is a rental home, was not interested in paying for topping the trees (don't blame him, what does it matter) on his property (which we are ok with). We decided to just split the cost of getting the view back. We got 4 bids, with La Costa Tree Service & Maintenance being right in the middle. Andrea, who "like" runs the show at La Costa Tree, came over to review the scope of work we wanted done. She was the only Tree company (4) who asked to visit the neighbors home below, as all 4 shared they will need access to the home below, yet Andrea wanted to take a closer look at what we wanted done ... to truly evaluate what this project was going to take. Her estimate was very detailed and we discussed various trees present, some to not top off for esthetics. The project turned out so great. I'm so glad Andrea took the time to look at what we had and to share what we might want to achieve.

They were able to give me a free quote same day and their workers arrived on time and were able to cut down our tree in quick time. The prices were fair, they quoted me 400$ when others were quoting me $650+. They were professional and cleaned up the entire area when they were done.

Cleared area
Valerie S.

Highly recommend this tree service! The team was very impressive with how fast and hard each member worked. Pedro the owner came out to give a proposal and it was a very fair price, they got to work right away. They cleared a massive slope in our backyard in just a day roots and all. The owners daughter is very sweet and brought lunch for the crew (which is an extra bonus that i love seeing). The clean up was spectacular they hauled away all the debris and even cleaned my pool with the fallen leaves. They also do pavers and concrete, which I want to use them for my next project. Can't say enough good things about them, my experience was great.

Removal of ash tree.
Mel S.

Pedro's Team was amazing! They removed a huge ash tree from our backyard with stump grind and haul. They were super quick with the job! We are happy with their work and rates!

Vivian T.

Pedro and his team trimmed 3 large eucalyptus and a pine tree for me and did a great job. They were professional and communicative throughout. Competitive pricing and A+ work. I would definitely call them again.

BoP.  Removed 3 stalks and cleaned expertly with little space and protected the pool.

It's always hard to find a good contractor that is really good with communication and updates. They did an amazing job bringing our backyard ideas come to life!

They helped to transform a so-so tract home front yard into something attractive and our pile of dirt back yard into something beautiful. Along the way, Roy was good at communicating with us and his team. His team are masters at their craft and take pride in their work. Their attention to detail with things we didn't even think of was appreciated - such as adding a small grade to the patio so water all flows into the drains they installed. When we miscommunicated or if something wasn't up to our extremely high standards (like we wanted one side of the firepit to be moved over 3/4"), Roy simply had his team fix it. The other big plus was Roy's willingness and ability to communicate with our pool contractor. I barely was involved. Both of them discussed plans and Roy listened to what our pool contractor needed for drainage around the pool and how tile should be placed around the pool cover well. I didn't have to worry about gas lines, drainage etc.. they figured out what needed to be done between them. Roy typically focuses on 1-2 jobs at a time, so there was momentum on our job. We saw many of our neighbors abandoned by their contractors half way, disappearing for a month or more, but Roy's team kept showing up, and got our job done quite quickly. When we had issues with our polymeric sand setting (something to do with our tile - Roy used the same polymeric sand and base at other sites and it worked), Roy and his team persisted in finding a solution. Even though everything was pretty much done, they tried several times to make things right. Finally, we found an Irish product on Amazon that did the trick. It's not a product typically sold in the US and is applied differently from regular polymeric sand. Roy made sure his team watched the videos and went over the instructions with them so the product was applied correctly. We are so happy he helped us find a solution (and we learned a lesson - sometimes it's better to stay away from super cheap, need to clear the store room, product)! In summary, working with Roy Murillo and his crew was a great experience. His pricing is reasonable (I compared several landscapers), and he and his crew truly know what they are doing. I have recommended them to family and neighbors and would work with them again in a heartbeat.

DO NOT USE Chris Bargain Lawn Care! During the week of 7/7, he mismanaged all aspects of our…read morelandscaping project, leading us to lose over $5,000 due to improper application of synthetic turf, failure to remove old turf and decomposed granite from our yard, putting a nail through our sprinkler line, and placing sticky sand all over our pavers requiring additional cleanup. Chris was informed about the removal of turf, roots, and DG four days prior to completion, but did not respond. I had over 100 text and phone calls with his subcontractor - Boots Construction, who was rarely present and did not address the issues. One time, he left to give a quote for another job instead of staying at our house. Chris guaranteed Boots would always be on site. I spent over 25 hours supervising and fixing problems with the entire project. Chris assured me of Boots' expertise, which proved false. Despite receiving payments, Boots has not paid his crew. Chris was sent numerous pictures and text, but did not resolve any of these problems. In fact, he stated he would be unable to provide any assistance or reimbursement of any kind.... Not even a penny. * Paver problems: Boots didn't take the right samples or measurements, so the pavers were mismatched and cut poorly. The sand was applied badly, and they didn't install root barriers as promised. * Fire pit and walkway issues: The fire pit area was uneven and needed to be redone. * Mulch mess: The crew piled mulch against the plants, even though they were told not to. We had to redo all the mulch installations around 150 plants. * Crew's behavior: The crew left trash all over our yard, including pizza boxes and water bottles we purchased for lunch. Chris stated on the 6th day our yard would be left in a pristine state and the opposite happened. They even left loose razor blades that were a hazard to our dogs! * Turf troubles: Turf and DG were removed with no disposal plan, leaving our gate unusable and driveway blocked until we paid 1-800-Got-Junk for removal. Chris did not respond when contacted. The turf showed visible nail spots, uneven seams, improper cuts, and house flashing and two sprinkler lines were damaged requiring another contractor for repairs. Boots used only a third of the specified infill amount. * Root removal problems: The roots weren't removed to the agreed depth, which could cause future issues. We had to buy materials to finish the root barrier installation. * Contract and payment concerns: Chris required a 25% upfront payment on 7/2, exceeding California's legal 10% downpayment limit, citing the need for pre-July 4th material purchases. However, receipts show no materials were bought until 7/11. Chris mismanaged the job and failed to respond to calls on Thursday and Friday. Despite our contract with him, he took no direct responsibility and communicated only about payments from Monday to Saturday. The subcontractor did not handle the turf professionally, contrary to Chris's assurances. Both Chris and Boots Construction are not licensed contractors according to the California State License Board. I would give a negative star rating if possible.

After a thorough search and reading the 300 plus 5* reviews, we reached out to Active Landscape And Tree Service. Jose responded to my call via text on a Saturday in just a few moments. After discussing the work that needed to be done and stressing the urgency we had, Jose was able to accommodate us on Monday morning. Jose is a true professional, with great communication and gave us a message when he was enroute to our home. Jose and his helper were hard workers, very thorough, attention to detail, efficient, and went the extra mile to ensure the cleanup of our yard was better than he found it. when I started to head down our long private drive with a green bin to the culdesac for trash pickup, Jose and his helper jumped right in and offered to take them for me. if You are in need of tree service, look no further. Jose at Active Landscape And Tree Service know how to treat you like a valued customer, going up and above to do excellent work and ensure the job is done to your satisfaction at an affordable cost. I will be calling Jose the next tree service we need and happy to recommend him to all my friends. Thank you Jose you are amazing!

I needed a new lawn and got my standard five bids for the job. Michael stood out for all of his…read moreinitial input on the options and then for the details of his bid. He was the only one who detailed every item involved in the bid, including update of irrigation. I've had issues in the past with bids for other projects that I assumed included the little details but didn't and then I had to pay extra. Michael's bid included every detail in writing that you would assume would be a part of a new lawn job and it was very reasonable. He also showed up on time for the initial appointment! His crew was great! Their work was very detailed and clean. The job was done within three days and all of the work area, including the driveway, was cleaned up. They even noted my falling-apart fence gate so Michael gave me a very reasonable quote and they did a great job fixing it for me. There were a lot of details for after-care and I've texted Michael multiple times to confirm. He texts back quickly and I never get the impression he's annoyed (I've sent a lot of texts!). I almost wish I had more yard renovations so that I could hire him again! I did discuss a whole-yard mulch job and will absolutely hire Michael when I'm ready for that. No more getting multiple bids for future yard renovations. I'll just call Michael.

We had our design done through Armstrong Garden Center and I liked their design but the bids we were getting with their landscapers were a lot higher than Michael's bid. Also, he was very knowledgeable. He came to do our estimate and we were impressed with his explanation about how he was going to run our water and electrical. No one else who came to give a bid gave a good solution or just didn't know how to do that. So the combination of a good bid and confidence in his knowledge of landscaping made this an easy choice. But best of all, he and his crew delivered on everything that was in the design plus things we decided to add. Now we actually enjoy being in our garden. Thank you!
