My wife and I are VERY impressed with the job they did cutting down a redwood tree and two very large trees. We watched them cut all three trees because we were amazed at the skill and speed shown doing their job. One 50 ft tree was very close to a fence and I expected it to be damaged--was not. The man cutting the branches and trunk did a great job cutting and swinging them away from the fences. All were very hard workers and very friendly. Stumps were ground and clean-up could not have been better. I would have given 10 stars if i were able. We had planned on getting several estimates (they were the second) glad we were sold on Richards during the estimate and decided we did not need more. read more

I used to trust this company. A few years ago, I would have recommended them without hesitation, they were professional, efficient, and did quality work. That's why I called them again when my trees needed trimming. Unfortunately, this is no longer the same business. I had two mature, fruitless mulberry trees in my front yard and a large camphor tree on the side of my home. They were beautiful, well-established, and provided incredible shade, so much so that I barely needed to run my AC in the summer. They simply needed a proper trim. What I got instead was complete butchery. Scheduling was the first red flag. I was told someone would come out within a week or two, it took over a month, and only after multiple follow-up calls. When they finally showed up, it was with little notice: "We're on our way." No real communication, no planning. At first, the crew seemed fine, until I stepped outside and actually looked at what they had done. I was shocked. My trees were hacked down to stubs. Completely disfigured. It was so upsetting I literally cried. To make matters worse, they broke one of my handmade stepping stones. When I mentioned it to the owner, there was no apology, just a casual "a limb must've fallen on it." That alone tells you everything about their level of care and accountability. When I raised concerns about the trees, I was assured they would "look beautiful by spring." I waited before writing this review to give them the benefit of the doubt. It's now spring. The trees still look terrible. Instead of healthy regrowth, they're covered in aggressive suckers shooting up from everywhere--even down toward the base. They look worse than they did immediately after the trimming. I've never seen anything like it. This wasn't just poor workmanship, it was careless, unprofessional, and dismissive. And for this, I was charged thousands of dollars. If you care about your trees, do not hire this company. read more

Third time I hired them. Had two large trees removed and several trimmed. They responded quickly and did a good job.

One day after Mark M and his crew trimmed and clean up my seven trees (four redwoods & three mock orange), I called Mark to tell him that one of my sprinklers was hit and damaged. He was very professional, prompt, and helpful. The next day, during a torrential rain he & John came over and worked to fix the damage. I was very happy and pleased with his professionalism and his knowledge as he & John fixed the problem. Thank you for the great job, well done Mark & John! I highly recommend Richard's Tree Services. read more

We are very happy with our tree trimming work performed by Richard's Tree Service today! David and crew did the work well and quickly, very reasonably priced too. David remembered all the specifics from the last time a couple years ago, power lines in the way and how to navigate around them. They were all patient while we got all the vehicles moved. We will always call them 1st and have recommend them to friends & family! read more

Richard's Tree Service was recommended by a local nursery to remove a dead tree stump in preparation for a new tree I was going to have planted. The tree stump I needed to have removed was a 2-3 year old Japanese Maple that died and that I previously cut down. The stump was about 7" high and about the size of my fist. Unfortunately, having just undergone spine surgery, I couldn't remove this myself. Considering Richard's came highly and personally recommended by the nursery staff, and because their website indicates they do "expert tree removal regardless of size and location" I figured I'd give them a call. I called them on Tuesday at 8:15am and spoke to "Ron." Ron told me it sounded like a simple job. I explained my spine situation to him. Regarding the job, Ron said, "Sounds like you need to just get a shovel and dig it out." Ron said he'd check and get back to me. I didn't hear back from him at all the rest of the day. I called them back the next day, Wednesday, at 9:25am after waiting over 24-hours. Ron answered again. I told Ron I had spoken with him the day prior but never heard back from him. He responded, "Oh ya, I talked to the owner and he said it wouldn't be cost effective to send out a crew for such a small job. We'd recommend just hiring a gardener or landscaper to do the job." Frustrated by the inconsistency in what I was being told compared to the recommendation I received and their assertion on their own website that they handle jobs "regardless of size," I asked Ron exactly how much we were talking cost wise to send out a crew. Ron couldn't provide me a price. I asked Ron if I could speak to Rich and he told me he was not available. I asked Ron if Rich could please call me to discuss and Ron said he'd have him call me back. Today is Friday afternoon. I have not received a call back from Rich, Ron, or anyone else at Richard's Tree Service. Apparently they are not interested in serving community members with jobs they deem too small. My advice? Don't waste your time trying to get a quote from them. I reached out to another local tree service in our area yesterday morning. This morning a representative from the company came out and bid the job. This afternoon their crew came out and removed the tree stump and roots. The price was insanely reasonable and I didn't risk re-injuring my back. Avoid Richard's Tree Service and explore other options. They only are interested in large jobs. read more

We had Richard's Tree Service over today (Folsom) to remove a tree that had fallen during the past storms and a couple of stumps. They are incredibly professional. They craned the tree out in pieces so they would not disturb any landscaping. So impressive! They also brought a small stump grinder and put it on plywood so our lawn would not be damaged. When finished with the job, the cleanup was impeccable. It looked so natural like there was never a tree or stumps there in the first place. They are fully licensed and insured which you need to be sure of unless you wish to lose everything you have worked so hard for. They have also been in business for over 60 years. I highly recommend Richard's Tree Service for any and all your tree care. read more

Had Richard's skin and trim my two 15 year old palm trees and couldn't be happier. The crew was very professional, courteous and hard working. My trees look happy now as well. Thanks to Richard's I have the best palm trees in the neighborhood. Reasonable pricing and good prompt work is what I received. Thank you, I'll be calling back when more trimming is needed. read more

The best tree service company I have found -they are reliable professional and courteous to do business with. I have used their services several times and have been very satisfied each time. I have never had a problem with any of their services rather it is to trim a tree or remove it. I don't currently live in Yuba City so it only takes one phone call to them and I know the situation is complete and professionally taken care of with my rentals read more

Hands down one the best experiences I have ever had with a company. I reached out to Richards Tree Service and obtained a quote from them to remove a tree. They were more than accommodating and even performed the bid when I was at work. Months passed and I emailed them asking if it would now be ok to move forward with the tree removal for the quoted price. They responded immediately with a yes and scheduled me for that coming up Friday. When the crew arrived they fun, friendly and professional. I can't say enough great things about them! I was so impressed how well they all worked together and completed the job in an hour! Cleanup and all. It was amazing! I highly recommend contacting Richards Tree Service if you're in need of this type of service. Thank you again! We can't wait to have a wider driveway! read more

Richard's Tree Service - Tree Services Near Me - Yuba City, California

We had an emergency after our septic system failed. A large tree in our front yard needed to be removed quickly to allow the new septic tank to be installed. Richards was responsive, a good value, and squeezed us in to their schedule so that we didn't need to further delay our plumbing emergency. Highly recommend. read more

Called Richard's Tree service to trim my avacodo tree on October 4th 2021. They gave me a bid and I accepted with no timetable because they were backed up. Richard's called mid December with a scheduled work date for the 29th of December. Two days prior to the scheduled work date they called stating they would need to move our appointment back an additional day to (December 30th) at 8 am. They morning of the 30th the company called 2hrs after their scheduled arrival time only to state they were behind and would be able to come out the next day!!! I would recommend a different company and I surely will not use them at my work anymore either. read more

I hired Richards tree service to remove two ash trees from in front of my rental. They were fast, professional, and came prepared. They left my place looking way better than when they showed up. Juan used his bobcat to load up the logs into the back of the dump truck while his crew chipped up the brush. Thank you for the great job well done!! read more

This is a great service! It took them a while to find an opening for taking down 4 GIANT oleanders and a Bradford Pear Tree. But they did so very efficiently and removed the oleander waste down to the smallest branch! The pear tree was cut into pieces for us (good for firewood) and the guys were friendly and fast. Mark was a fantastic supervisor and he gave us a good, honest quote. He was also knowledgeable about the trees and issues we had going on with our old property. A great bunch of guys who are hard-working, nice, and to-the-point. Love it! I've just called them for a quote for another job. I'd be happy to hire them again. read more

We had a great experience working with this business. They gave us a great quote, took down 3 trees, and completed the job in a day. They stuck to their quote. Great service and reasonable prices. A couple of years later they delivered a load of wood chips for our yard. They called and dropped off 15 yards of chips right where I asked them to. read more

Most important - this was VERY AFFORDABLE. We were so worried that it would be costly to remove 3 very large trees, including stumps. Get a quote! I think you will be shocked. It's very important that a company do what they say they will do! Richard's Tree Service absolutely did what they promised! Because the cost was so reasonable, we were able to include stump removal in a "shared area" in our front yard, where our neighbor had a tree removed! Customer service was fantastic and I am SUPER picky! My husband was home during the removal. He was happy with the friendly and professional team that performed the removal. It went very fast, and they cleaned up perfectly. We have a pool and pool equipment that was likely to be impacted and they took extra care with both. This is the only company we will consider if we need additional help with our trees. The bonus? Working with a local, family owned, company that has been in business for over 60 years! Sincerest thanks to Mark and team!! read more

They did a great job cutting down a 60 foot palm and trimming about a 30 foot date palm.The price was fair and will be calling them back in the near future for some more tree work. read more

We bought a property with 7 very old, overgrown, never-been-trimmed trees. I figured tree trimming would cost in the thousands and put off getting quotes. Im so happy i found these guys on Yelp. Not only did they give us a totally fair and do-able quote, but when there was a miscommunication about the appointment date, they gave me a big discount. Furthermore, i was nervous about a tree trimming service doing a total hack job and nervously asked them not to "go to far". I needn't have worried. They did a beautiful job on all 7 trees. And finally, they cleaned up after themselves. Total pros. Would highly recommend. read more

I called this company at the beginning of September, Mark came out to give me an estimate, which I signed and told him I'd like to proceed with having two large trees pruned. He told me they were about 6 weeks out with scheduling and I said fine. 8 weeks go by with no word so I call the company to find out what was happening. They said they did have a record of my signing the estimate and he'd look into it more and call me back. (No callback) I called again a couple days later and spoke with the same man, he promised he'd look into it and call me back that day. (No callback) About a week later I got a voicemail message from Ron saying I was scheduled for the following Friday at 8:00am. (Yay!) When no one came Friday morning I called the company again, only to be told by Ron that he had no idea who had called me (it was him) but they didn't have me on the schedule that day. At this point I don't even know what to say, except that I will be calling another tree service. read more

I could not be happier! They were 10 minutes early (which, to a veteran means "being On Time" ), communicated and worked in a safe and professional, they finished the job sooner than expected and the completed job exceeded my expectations! I would call them again and recommend them highly! read more

These guys were great. I had an 85 foot redwood in my front yard that had to be trimmed down to a reasonable height and thinned out. Nacho and his crew arrived promptly this morning and did a TERRIFIC JOB!! Very polite and professional. His team did everything I asked and more. They left the front yard spotless. Great price too compared to others in this area. Definitely will use these guys again. read more

The arborist who came out to our home was a good guy and very knowledgeable. It turned out that we didn't need to have any work done, but we would not hesitate to use them in the future. Highly recommended read more

Richard's Tree Service saved our home! They removed and trimmed back some trees that were threatening our home during a recent storm. Mark and his crew were very professional, courteous and wet due to the storm. They saved our day. After they left, there was no evidence that they were here except for the missing tree and tree limbs from another tree. We highly recommend Richard's Tree Service. Service was excellent and price was exceptional. They also removed a neighbors tall redwood tree next to his driveway at half the price of other tree services and our neighbor did not have to replace the driveway as "promised" by the other tree companies. Thank you Mark and kudos to his crew. Exceptionally professional, courteous and service above my high expectations. read more

A really old maple tree in my backyard is slowly biting the dust. Every year we lose several branches and this year the top started to die back at the top. We used Richard's Tree Service after a neighbor's tree crashed during a big windstorm years ago and I called them again for an estimate. I want to save the shade this tree provides (and the beauty, of course). The estimator came out, gave me an awesome price for removal of all dead wood plus what it would cost to "shape" the remaining branches for looks. The crew arrived early this a.m., went to work immediately, prepped my yard for the demo, and did a wonderful job. They cleaned up perfectly and replaced all my yard furniture when they were done. The tree lost a lot because it's been neglected for more years than I have lived here but, it now looks as if it might last another 20 years for us. I highly recommend Richard's . read more

Fantastic experience with Richard's Tree Service. Would highly recommend working with them. Reasonable pricing and exceptional service by all that we came in contact with. We had 3 large liquid Amber trees fully trimmed and will be calling them back for scheduling our other trees. Many on the crew we worked with had been with the company over 15 years which shows loyalty to a company that treats them well. Grateful we found them! read more

These guys are amazing. We had three huge, horrible china berry trees in our backyard. They were ruining our patio and causing a never ending mess. It had long been on our wishlist to have them removed, but we didn't think we could afford it. Richard's Tree Service came out, gave us a fair quote and soon we were scheduled. I can't say enough about what an amazing job they did. They finished the entire job in less than 4 hours. We live in a cul-de-sac and they expertly accessed our backyard trees from the front. When they were done they cleaned up the whole area, as if they had never been there. Including all those awful china berries. The whole time they were there, the guys had smiles a mile wide. It was almost as if they were just as happy as I was to get these trees gone. It truly felt like they cared. Once they left, even our neighbors were commenting on what an amazing job these guys did in such a short amount of time. Really, so truly impressed and pleased with them. From the customer service all the way to a job superbly done. Highly recommended, thank you so much. read more

They came out from Yuba City to Lincoln on a referral do help my 100+ year old Oak tree. They surveyed the tree and it's needs (since my house is only 10 years old it was on the 'trees land') to keep it healthy. They then went to work climbing into the tree to take away the limbs that were too close to the house and those that could weaken the tree over time. I was very satisfied with the results, the time it took and the price! I would recommend them. read more

Richard's Tree Service was a pleasure to do business with. We had 3 Raywood ash trees in the front and along the side of the house. Also had a huge dead willow in the backyard that was dropping truck sized branches into the street and backyard. The employees were so skilled and professional taking down the trees. They cleaned up all traces of the trees. Stump and root grinding was well done. They treated our elderly father, who wanted to watch the trees come down, very kindly. From estimate, trees coming down, and dealing with the office was such a friendly courteous experience. We highly recommend Richard's Tree Service to anyone. You will get top notch, professional, experienced employees from start to finish. read more
