His insight was clear and easy for me to understand; his experience was evident in knowing what he was looking for. He even took the time to educate me.

I manage two schools in Altadena and have been working with Lopez Tree Service for several years…read more They have consistently provided excellent service, fair pricing, and reliable support. I would highly recommend this contractor to anyone looking for dependable tree services, tree assessments, or removal work for their home or business. I have worked closely with Arturo and his team, and they have delivered above-and-beyond service for both schools. Arturo is knowledgeable, responsible, and truly understands his trade. Whether the job is small or large, his team approaches it with professionalism and care. No matter the scope of the project, Arturo and his team show up and stand behind their work. Their consistent reliability makes them a contractor we are comfortable returning to for future tree service needs.

Once again, Arturo Lopez came to our home soon after I contacted him to get an appraisal. The price was reasonable and we set a date. When his team arrived, they were professional and thorough and did the yard work in a timely manner. As always they did excellent work and the follow through in cleanup was great. I would definitely recommend their services.

Alex is awesome - friendly, knowledgeable, patient and kind. Takes the time to walk through everything, explain how things will be done and projected timelines, as well as very transparent, competitive and upfront pricing. I used Phil & Sons to remove a HUGE Cedar tree (I'm talking 13ft base circumference and over 50ft tall AFTER over half of it had already been cut down by the Army Corps of Engineers) that remained on our burned-down property after the Eaton Canyon Fires. We needed to clear the site in preparation for new construction. The process was smooth, and Alex even sent me photos after the job had been completed as I was out-of-town. Superb company that initially came at very high recommendation to me (from my Altadena community as well as the local company Angel City Lumber), and now I highly recommend them to you.

I asked for severe trimming of an olive (they are quite resilient) and moderate trimming and thinning of our Live Oak in Altadena so as not to overhang on the neighbors and backing them away from the main house for fire mitigation. We are also planning on a new roof and solar installation. Ivo Navarro came on time to meet with me. Very courteous, professional, informative and answered all of my questions. He was very particular about the live oak and ensuring to not harm it in anyway (this is an exceptionally old and large Coastal Live Oak). It is very evident that he cares about trees and wants to ensure the trimming leaves the trees healthy and with a natural look. The crew arrived on time. They all had their safety equipment on. They were very careful to ensure your property is protected by removing (and later replacing) things on the walls, potted plants, patio furniture as well as protecting the chicken coop! Then they placed boards against the nearby windows to protect them. The crew used manly manual tools (which I like - so did the dog and the neighbors) and did use a chainsaw a few times for bigger limbs. There were a total of five men (including Ivo) and ALL were professional, courteous and seemed like happy employees. The end result WAS AMAZING! Natural looking oak and a trimmed up reduced olive. EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED! Oh! And the crew was amazing cleaning up the neighbors yards as well - like REALLY AMAZING job. No casualties in any of the yards!!! Gotta appreciate that!

I highly recommend Family Tree Service. Victor and his crew are amazing - they are highly skilled,…read moreprofessional, and the most efficient group I've ever worked with. From the outset, Victor impressed me with his knowledge and professionalism. They cut down about 10 very tall cypress trees and 5 huge overgrown trees that hadn't been touched in 15+ years. They also demolished an old shed anchored in concrete, graded the area, put in grass and planted 7 new cypress trees along the border. In addition, they removed an old non-functioning BBQ structure and cut down about 5 palo verde trees in the front yard. All of this was done in just 2.5 days, and the results exceeded my expectations. These guys know what they're doing and have a lot of experience. Victor and I first verbally agreed on the scope of work and price, and he followed up with a contract that reflected exactly what we discussed. The workmanship is superb and the price was very reasonable. I can't say enough good things about Victor and his crew and I absolutely love my backyard now. Below are some photos of the finished work.

Javier was awesome to work with and it's nice to see the owner picking up a tool and getting in there too. All the guys were knowledgeable and were very nice too, which makes it easy. Cannot say enough nice things about Javier and his crew. I would hope my contracting crew comes off this good. We had a very overgrown house, many years/decades. The bushes, hedges, and mainly the 100+ foot trees needed some serious work. They handled it great and took care of the neighbors properties too. I didn't have to walk through it all each day, it just got done and done to what I think is the right way. They put plywood where it's necessary to protect things and are careful when limbs drop. You can't even tell that they were here besides the yard, trees, and the property, looking great. It was a multiple day job, each day they all were nice, worked hard, and got it done efficiently. Everything they cut looks natural and not just trimmed without care like our other guys, it seemed very selective and not willy nilly. They all went above and beyond what we expected. They were not the cheapest option, but Javier seemed knowledgable, trustworthy, and like he could handle the job from the get go and estimate. They weren't that far out from the cheap guys either, definitely more, but I am so glad I chose this company vs just the cheapest. Other crews have "botched" it before and I don't think we will do that anymore. We will absolutely use them again and highly recommend them.

I was concerned grinding the stumps down wouldn't get deep enough to remove all the material, and I would have caving in problems in the future when the organic material decomposed. Of all the companies I reached out to, they were the only ones who could grind down deeper than 12-14". They gave me a very competitive quote for all stumps at a maximum depth of 3ft from the base. They came in fully ready, with a sizeable crew and got the job done in less than an hour. They removed absolutely everything and exceeded my expectations. They also made sure to clean after themselves with no traces of dirt left on my driveway. I had the chance to talk to Beto for a bit, a very honest and knowledgeable guy. I picked his brain about a couple future projects, and he gave me very good insights. I will most definitely be reaching out to them again when the time comes.
