I had a great experience with Alex and his crew. They tackled just about every tree on our .5 acres and brought all of our trees back to life. Every type of tree from giant oaks, citrus, to palms; and removal of a couple trees and grinding out a few stumps. They worked so hard for two days straight and cleaned everything, including all of the debris that fell in our pool. (We didn't have a sweep so he went to Ace to buy one for us) Talk about service! I was very impressed with alex's extensive knowledge about trees and how to properly care for them. He clearly loves his job and I look forward to working with him again. His pricing was also very fair. You could of course find someone cheaper but they might not know how to properly trim a tree (for looks and for the health). Oh, and he even hung a swing for our kids from a very large oak! Can't wait! read more

Would give + 5 stars if I could. We have used them to trim our sycamore, oaks and redwoods. And even gotten estimates for other trees in yard. Their arborist is knowledgeable, very environmental minded and honest. He not only gave us advice regarding care but great referrals. Great team! I am definitely using them for all our tree needs and highly recommend! read more

Alex is amazing. He followed up with me many times and was very flexible about coming to clear my fallen tree. He immediately responded in less than two hours to come out the same day. When we finally connected he was very knowledgeable about the type of trees we have and gave an extremely reasonable and competitive quote. I will call him again and definite recommend. Although my Gardner ended up clearing the tree before Alex came without me asking! read more

This review is for Alex who is amazing and extremely helpful. I really appreciate your kindness today with the tree issue and taking your time in evaluating the situation. If you ever need a referral, please let me know! Thank you again for going above and beyond!! This is the person you want to trim your trees! read more

Efficient. CAREFUL. Attention to detail. Cleaned up perfectly and put all outside furniture back in place. The best.

Alex and his crew are fantastic. We used them to trim a very large Zelkova and three huge redwood trees, remove a few small problematic oaks, and grind down several stumps in advance of a fence installation. Alex was very knowledgeable, advising us on the proper care and maintenance for redwoods (he's a certified arborist). His team showed up on time, finished on time, and were professional, experienced, and friendly. They have top-notch equipment and know how to use it. We've worked with several trimming firms and our experience with them was completely opposite to what we enjoyed with SexyTrees. If you care about your trees, don't bother with anyone else - go with Alex and his team. read more

Awesome service? Showed up on time and finished as promised. Very knowledgeable and helpful.

Work was completed professionally, on time and on budget. We have utilized their services a number of times and it is always done correctly by courteous workers, for the amount quoted and with no mess left behind. read more

We had Alex come by to provide an estimate on 2 large Oak Trees that were located at our new home. These Oak trees were in such bad shape we originally called Alex to see if it was best to cut the oak trees down. Alex showed up to our meeting on time and gave professional analysis of the trees and their health. After taking the time to understand our family and our backyard vision he recommended a good pruning of the trees instead of taking them out. We are very glad that we took his recommendation. His crew showed up as promised, took care of the job to perfection, and left the place as clean as he arrived. Our trees look awesome as he stated they would and we found his pricing to be very reasonable. We are very happy with sexytrees.com and would only use them in the future. read more

They were amazing. First it started with a great price. Then the entire crew showed up on time. Then they cleared out about 15% of this 100 year old pine tree that had never really been properly trimmed and was so over grown. Finally, the best part was they cleaned up so well that you almost couldn't tell they were there in the first place. Highly recommend. read more

We have been using Sexy Trees for about 5 years now. Alex is extremely knowledgeable about trees and is a certified arborist. He is also very honest and very reasonable in what he charges. We hire him once a year to trim and assess the trees on our property. We had some Crete Myrtle trees that were not doing well. He assessed them and determined they were planted too close together and were not planted with wood chips which I guess helps them to prosper. The trees went from near death to looking fabulous. He recently detected tent caterpillar disease in one of our trees which he does not treat but referred us to someone. His tree trimming is about as artistic as you can get.... there is no tree topping when he trims your trees. These are just a few of the many reasons why you should hire Sexy Trees for your tree care needs! Cindy from Alamo read more

A+ customer service - Alex showed up on time and was extremely courteous and professional. Alex was very honest and upfront and stated that due to the size, proximity, and and other items he would not be able to provide a competitive bid, and recommended another vendor on site. He took it one step further to take multiple pictures of my tree and text it to the other vendor - I don't know many proprietors that go to that length to help someone that they are not going to be able to service - a true professional! read more

Sexy Trees was servicing my neighbor's property so I asked the crew if it was possible to get an estimate for trimming a large unruly tree that had been topped by the previous house owner. I was greeted immediately by the company owner Alex. He assessed my tree, discussed the options, and provided an estimate by email within 1 hour. The estimate was extremely fair and reasonable based on estimates I had obtained previous years from other companies. A service date was provided within a 2 week turn around and I could not be any happier with the results! The crew arrived as scheduled, were polite, professional and very efficient. They left my property tidy and the tree looks amazing. I highly recommend this company. read more

I contacted Alex Llamas from Sexy Trees to do some tree and brush work in my small Berkeley yard. We had a medium height magnolia tree which needed thinning, an unruly bottlebrush bush that required shaping, an aging Santa Rosa plum tree who needed some dead branches removed and an out of control bougainvillea that was, well, out of control. Alex quoted a very reasonable price and sent his team over. I could not be happier with their work. His crew arrived on time, they were friendly, efficient, and cleaned up all of the scattered leaves, twigs and branches. And did I mention their work was outstanding? The magnolia hasn't looked this good/healthy in years and my backyard once again has sunlight for our raised garden beds. If you are looking for excellent arbor work, please do yourself a favor and contact Sexy Trees. Thanks Alex and crew! read more

Sexy Trees came out on the scheduled time and did an amazing job removing palm trees that were too close to my house. They cleaned up the area and you would not have known there were trees there. I will use them again whenever I need tree pruning or removal. read more

These guys know what they are doing. I had two pine trees cabled and next year they came to inspect them. One tree needed to be removed due to potential danger of splitting (and falling on my house or a neighbor's house). They took out this huge tree in just a few hours and left the property clean, like they had never been there. I will definitely use them again. read more

Sexy Trees once again did an amazing job on making my trees as sexy as they can be. They are always on time, considerate, get the job done all with safety as their top priority and the trees love them. I wouldn't go anywhere else they are truly the best read more

We have multiple trees on our property that have a lot of sentimental value, so when selecting our arborist we did our research. Alex has a lot of knowledge about trees and is always continuing his education on Arboriculture. Before trimming we walked around the property with Alex as he examined each tree. We talked about the best situation for the trees health along with what would be ascetically pleasing to the eye. When on site and in action he and his crew exuded extreme professionalism and safety. I would recommend alex, and am very pleased in the way the trees are growing in. Thanks Alex and crew! read more

Great work for a very good price. Friendly and dependable. You won't be disappointed!! read more

We had 3 bids on a tree project. Alex was the cheapest and most knowledgeable. He noted several things the others did not mention including an infestation in part of the tree!! We have an appointment and I look forward to getting the work completed! read more

We had Alex trim three large trees in our yard, two oak trees and a Chinese Elm. He also removed a very large tree. From the first appointment I realized that Alex really understands his business and has a passion for trees. He had excellent advice, and shared his knowledge about care with me. In the past, I have had trouble achieving a pruning job that left the trees airy and beautiful. Alex and his crew did the best job pruning our trees that has ever been done, and we have had our trees pruned many times over the years. I would highly recommend his team of professionals. read more

This review is long over due! I met Alex about a year ago and heard him talk to a group regarding tree maintenance, health, and removal. I was very impressed by his knowledge not only of how different trees need to be taken care of and his ability to identify different types of trees, but also his ability to explain how certain trees effect one another. A few months following meeting Alex, my mom was looking for someone to remove a couple of trees. I referred her to a friend of my boss, because I had known him far longer. After we called 2-3 times, he never responded. I asked my mom to trust me once more and to give Alex a call. She called him early one morning and not only did he answer immediately, he offered to be at the house within half an hour. He showed up to the house quickly, listened to our concerns, made suggestions and within a few days the trees were removed. Alex and his team did a great job, kept the site clean and at my moms request left the chips from the tree and large logs for use in the garden. I highly recommend Alex - He really knows what he is doing when it comes to trees! A true Arborist! read more

Excellent service and quality of work. We have used Sexy Trees for both our home and my mother in laws over the past few years and they never disappoint. Alex is personable and knows what he is doing. He is reliable and had competitive quotes. Well worth and will use again next time we need. read more

I have used Alex and his team for quite a few years. First off the owner Alex is a tree lover. He know what a tree needs and he knows how to trim them. I would never hire anybody but him to trim my trees. The last time Alex came out I had him remove 8 Italian Cypress trees. These were no small trees. Each one was about 55 ft tall and at least 5ft around. Amazed at how they were going to do it I sat in my lawn chair and watched them. They were impressive. They disposed of everything and completely cleaned up when they were finished. Great job to Alex and his crew, thank you !!! read more

Very pleased with such efficient and thorough service and such a well-outfitted crew. Watching Alex's crew working made me realize that even though this was not what you would call a major job (trimming, pruning, clearing out a slope of ivy, clean-up) it was a job I could not do even half as well as them. After the final "detailing" (cleanup) I was even more impressed! Thank-you for such a good job...money well-spent. read more

When it comes to tree trimming and pruning, Alex and his crew at Sexy Trees are tops in the area. I have always been very satisfied with them arriving as scheduled and performing the work as previously agreed upon. They are always extra careful in not damaging any plants or structures on the ground. Their cleanup of fallen branches is superb !!! I just sit back and relax sipping my mint julep watching them work. read more

They did an amazing job on our cedar, pine & citrus trees! They were honest, professional, worked efficiently and cleaned up after themselves. We will definitely be using this company again in the near future. read more

Had Llamas Tree Service return to do a stump removal of the tree I had hired them to cut down over a month ago. Same exact service as expected! On time, Courteous, Quick and Efficient work. Alex is very polite, and very professional. The perfect mix of skill and customer service. A+++ read more

Fast. Punctual. Professional. And at a price that can't be beat. They could not have impressed me more! Great job guys! read more

Good quality work, good attitude and communication, good crew and fair price - I would definitely recommend Alex to friends and family! read more

Knowledgable, honest, efficient, easy going, and fantastic! Alex provides the best service in the Bay Area! He removed several trees from my property a couple of weeks ago. He provided a fair estimate right away and he finished the work right on time! Usually, I do not recommend people,but I gave his phone number to a couple of friends and they were very happy as well :) If all my service providers were as good as Llamas Tree Service, my life will be so much easier! If you need help with any tree related issue, he is your man! read more

We have 5 palm trees in our backyard that my husband has wanted to have trimmed and skinned for several years because they drop debris into our pool. So, I decided to have it done for him as a birthday gift. I set-up bids from three tree companies in our area. Two of them were about the same amount, but I chose Llamas Tree Service because they were the only ones who said that they would cover our pool. Alex and his crew arrived on time and took the time to put a big tarp over our pool. The first day, they trimmed all of the dead palm branches off the trees. These palm trees are about 30 feet tall, so their work is not easy! They cleaned everything up when they were finished. The trees looked great! Since my husband also wanted the palms skinned, too, Alex and crew came back a second day. The skinning is a much more labor-intensive job and it took almost the entire day. His guys were hanging from ropes and on ladders very high up working with very sharp knives to get the outer layer of palm branch ends that cover the trees off. It seems very dangerous, but his guys handled the task like the professionals they are! They also put a tarp over the pool for this part of the job and even skimmed the pool for some straggling debris when they cleaned up! (His guys also saved a neighbor's dog who was being attacked by a coyote when they arrived!) I would highly recommend Llamas Tree Service to anyone who needs work done on their trees. They were friendly, prompt, clean, reliable and reasonably-priced. Thank you, Llamas Tree Service! read more

Sexy Trees! When we purchased our home last summer I was taken by the eclectic collection of trees that inhabited the property. The Siberian Elms, Valley Oaks, Ash, Pine and a massive Mulberry tree that had been providing shade were beautiful, but they had been relatively untouched for years. After the battery of El Niño storms that blew through this winter started to take down dead branches in droves, it was time to get a professional in to assess the trees and thin them out. I called three outfits for quotes and I went with the final bid - Llamas Tree Service. It was obvious to me right from the start that Alex Llamas truly loves what he does. I was impressed with his knowledge of the many types of trees and the characteristics of each. I was even more impressed with his concern for their well being. While the other quotes I received reflected the "cut and dried" trimming I was requesting, Alex's approach differed in that his goal was to enhance the natural beauty and overall health of each tree. He assured me that I would see the results I wanted, and that I would have "Sexy Trees!" Alex and his crew showed up on time and got to work. The team was very conscientious and were efficient in their tasks. Ceasar, Vicente, Alfredo and Manuel tackled the project as if it were their own. The chipper was used only when needed and cleanup was done prior to departure each day. The trees turned out better than I had expected, and I can now see Alex's vision. Overall, I am extremely happy with Llamas Tree Service! The 5-Star rating is much deserved and Alex and his crew will come highly recommended. Not only do I have an arborist I can count on, I truly do have "Sexy Trees!" read more

We had SexyTrees trim the trees in our backyard, which are in close proximity to our house. They were professional, careful, and did a wonderful job of making everything look great. They care about the trees and the customer and gave great guidance on what needed to be done. We would highly recommend SexyTrees without reservation. David B. read more

Excellent at remove trees and stumps. They are on my call list when I need to remove more trees in the future.

I thought I needed my Japanese Maple tree pruned. The owner of Sexy trees came out to my house and spent quite some time educating me on how to water and fertilize the tree. Said I didn't need to prune it yet. He charged me nothing but spent a lot of time educating me about the tree. I will call him in the Fall when the tree is ready to be pruned. read more

Great, reliable, quick work! Definitely will use them again!

We highly recommend Sexy Tree. We have used them for 2 years to evaluate, prune and remove trees. The owner, Alex, is licensed, insured, and well equipped. His crew is polite, all are climbers, and climb without cleats for pruning. Jane and Jon read more

Great company. Great prices. Great experience. Very professional and knowledgeable. Alex impressed me as an arborist who totally loves trees and remembers what he has seen from previous visits. read more
