If ethics is not important to you, as it is not for many these days, this is the tree company for you. They will cut anything, after city hours, without permits. And they are rude and arrogant to boot. read more

I needed his service to remove a tree. He was quick. The work was nicely done. However, he broke a fence cap. not a big deal. He replaced it with something similar since he couldn't find an exact match at multiple hardware stores. read more

This company just put a flyer on my door offering to top trees. Tree topping is illegal. It damages trees, makes the new growth dangerously brittle, and more likely to break off in a storm. Tree topping is like amputating the branches instead of properly trimming them. The city of San Jose is requiring people to remove trees that have been topped. That's expensive and causes the unnecessary removal of a tree that should have been trimmed properly. Anyone that knows anything about trees would never be offering this as part of their services. read more

This is the second time we have used Sal and his team on the large live oak in front of our house. And the second time was better than the first ,... which was very good! The tree looks great, and the cleanup was above and beyond anything we were expecting. His prices are reasonable and he communicates well, when and if there are any schedule issues. He is easy to work with and has proven to be an honest and reliable contractor. We highly recommend Torres Tree Service. There are more than one business using this name, so be sure to call 408-593-7744. read more

sal gave me a very competitive quote and cut the tree the same day while he was working on the neighbors! The crew left the area clean. I would recommend them and call them for my next tree needs! read more

Had Sal come out again to get a 10-inch diameter stump from a flowering plum tree. It was 30 inches wide underground. Major grinding. See the new videos below. More videos https://youtu.be/nSHRaopLQms https://youtu.be/Mtt4dGQUmRE https://youtu.be/B2moDBQkIq8 read more

WOW! Torres Tree Service exceeded our expectations! These guys (and brothers), were professional, detail oriented and listened to what our vision for the trees were before cutting, trimming and cleaning up 3 trees (including 2 huge magnolias). I would highly recommend giving this company a call--we will continue to use their service. Thank you again Torres Tree Service! read more

Sal and his crew just completed removal and stump grinding of yucca tree, and trimming of a large crepe myrtle and some overgrown hedges. They completed the work as agreed per the estimate that Sal gave me. They cleaned up the work areas very well and stacked the trimmings neatly on street for this week's city pickup. Sal is personable, polite and professional and communicates accordingly if he or crew are delayed. His prices are fair and reasonable. This is the 2nd job that Torres Tree Service has done in the last 2 years for me. I highly recommend Sal and will continue to use his company's services for future tree needs. Well done, Sal and crew! read more

Great service! Called and they came the next day to give a competitive quote for a huge oak that we needed thinned out. Then scheduled them to come the next day and did an excellent job. Really knew how to shape the tree. Worked fast and chipped all of the branches so we saved a bunch on hauling. I would definitely recommend them for tree services. They'll be back to take out a dying tree in our back yard next year. In response to other reviews... I'm glad they left a card on our doorstep! Gave us a chance to call quickly and compare to other quotes. Almost half as much as other quotes that required 'cranes'. These guys climes the tree. read more

We met with Salvador, he gave us a quote that was reasonable and came to trim our trees within two days, he did what we asked did an excellent job of clearing all of the debris. I highly recommend their service read more

Sal called us right away and set up appt for estimate. A man of few words and an awesome tree surgeon. He took an old Chinese Elm and cut it way back but remains to look like a tree! We were very pleased. His quote was far more competitive than many others who charge a minimum of $350 an hour. His price was reasonable. He cleaned up and you couldn't even see any saw dust from the wood chipper. Good work read more

They were a day late in showing up... They agreed to a price in writing to ground a stump and then when a different gentleman show up he up the price by $50.00 before he unloaded his equipment and would not do the job for what he agreed to... I email back and forth but was told that was the new price and told me to go somewhere else if I did not want to pay the new price... BE careful in doing business and it looks like they are trying to scam be people... Would not recommend them as being honest people.. read more

excellent service, fair rates. they worked efficiently, quickly and cleaned up afterward. I highly recommend them!

Sal and his crew did a FANTASTIC job cutting/removing/trimming trees and foliage in my yard. It was all shredded and stacked properly in the street and this morning the City of San Jose yard waste recycle took it all away. Sal first came for an estimate and set a date. The morning of the work, he again went over every detail. He had the list in his phone. All was done plus a couple small extras. A fair price for an incredible job well done. His crew left the yard impeccably clean. Our side yard walk and driveway were cleaner than I've ever kept them! And Sal is a nice guy! 6 stars at least! read more

Good overall service. They came promptly on time and completed the work efficiently. I am not rating 5 star as there was a huge root (attached to the stump) that was missed as part of stump grinding and I had get my gardener to remove it. read more

I found their business card on my driveway, and extremely happy that I didn't toss it. Sal was quick to respond to my text messages and arranged an on site visit. Their competitive quote and professionalism surpassed other companies I had inquired with, by far. They were on time for the on site quote as well as to complete the job. In less than a few hours, my dead full-size tree had been removed safely. Needless to say I am extremely impressed and pleased with their service and highly recommend them. Thank you Torres tree service! read more

Since so many people I know check YELP ratings before considering hiring or going to a service, I think it is important to rate them. I think that 5 stars are great and often accompany others, but less than 5 is very important to help customers decide. I recently had Torres Tree Service severely trim back one large and one small tree. The trimming was satisfactory and the cutters worked with me to take additional branches off for a better look. Unfortunately, though I asked the supervisor to tell his men to be especially careful of a large jade plant that couldn't be moved from under the tree, he did not and my 30 year old plant is smashed with broken branches that have to cut off to save. "Yes 'miss' they will be careful". The supervisor dragged very large and long branches through my back yard knocking over plants and pots that I had moved to avoid that problem. I have to say that I will not hire them again. I guess this is a case where you get what you pay for. read more

Have used them every other year for the past ten years to prune back my oleander hedge and cut the dead fronds off my 30 foot high palm tree. They are GREAT! read more

Initially spoke to Sal to get a quote and told him what I would like to be done to my tree in front of my house. He came out to my place while I was at work to get a better look at the tree and give me a quote two days later. He gave me a quote that was lower than all the other quotes, and so I went with him. He scheduled me for a Saturday appointment and it was his brother and his crew came to do the job. I wanted to make sure that when was discussed between Salvador was passed on to his brother and he promised it would be. The crew did a great job at thinning out my tree and cutting the dead branches that I want them to cut. They stacked the branches in front of my house on the street nice and neatly, and made sure any mess was cleaned up. I am happy about their service and being able to communicate with them via text before the scheduled appointment. I will gladly recommend them and will use them again. read more

He was great. He was the first to show up for the estimate. Communication was great. Had the best estimate, came when he said, He cut down a large tree near my house safely. And trimmed a huge pine tree, and oak tree in the back. I highly recommend this company. read more

It is my backyard neighbour who hired this company to trim the cedar tree close to the fence between us. They've taken good care working with the branches on my neighbour's side. Unfortunately, I didn't have the same luck. Big branches were cut off and let fall directly into my backyard, and smashed my plants, twice, before I stopped them from more damage. If only they had taken the same care as they had done on the other side, to tie the rope to oversize branches before making a cut, lower the chunks slowly to the ground, this would not have happened. What made me even more upset was the owner just told me "Things happen, Madam". 9 tomato plants, a bean, and a gourd may not look like anything precious, however each one is a different variety of heirloom tomato, all started from April, during this whole coronavirus thing. He made an apology at last though, as my neighbour told him to. Look for someone else more responsible, if you care for your neighbours as much as your own yard. read more

Armando and his family used their skill with trees to climb up and save a 'kitty in danger' who had been stuck way up high for many days. We are all delighted and impressed with Armando's hard work and dedication. He stepped up when many others would not help. read more

Just had a large, all-day tree service job in my backyard in Milpitas with excellent results. Salvador gave me good, competitive estimate for the large job at hand and he and his brother came through with flying colors. This job involved both tree removal and fruit tree pruning along with a backyard trash accumulation haul away. I picked Torres Tree Service because of good positive reviews along with their total contractor approach which include trash disposal as well as tree work. Very pleased with the job. I recommend Torres Tree Service and would definitely use them again. read more

The big branch of the tree in my front yard was falling down on my car in the Saturday morning. So I called them and they came over in just 2 hours to cut the falling branch and help me move my car away, and scheduled the time to do tree trimming the next week. The work is perfectly done, and these guys are nice and professional. Impressed by their work! read more

I would not have found this company unless they had left their card on the door step. I had been thinking our great big tree needed a trim. Called Salvador, he came out for an estimate at my convenience and gave a competitive quote. Again, he crew came on my requested day, arrived in the window given and the crew was very polite. Now all of the dead wood is gone, tree looks healthier, and they took away the mess. They cleaned up the yard like I never knew they had been there. And I like to putter in the yard. Thanks for a job well done. read more

We had a stump to remove in our yard and we were unsure about having someone do it for us. So I called for a quote figuring I could always say no if I didn't like the price. They came within an hour of the call to give the quote and were very reasonably priced so we arranged for them to do the job. They came back the very same day a few hours later and did a fantastic job, even in the rain! At the same time they said they could trim a few other trees that needed it. We will be calling them again in a few months to trim our huge persimmon tree. I would definitely recommend them!! read more

Very professional, and did an amazing job for a very competitive price.

We recently used Torres Tree Services after finding a business card on our driveway. We had a large lemon tree to trim and a stump to remove. Their pricing was competitive and the service was impeccable. They took the time to understand what we needed and delivered. read more

The guys who worked on the trees did ok work, I guess, but they cut the phone line to my house in the process. It cost me $360 to repair it. When I called to talk to them about it, they hung up on me as soon as I said who I was. Subsequent calls went straight to voice mail. Bad business to do damage to property and then refuse to even discuss it with the client. read more

I've used Torres for two trees now. They've been prompt, highly professional and don't just cut all the branches. They know how to properly shape and balance a tree so that it fills in properly. They leave the area better than they found it. I would definitely recommend them to folks looking to have tree work done properly. read more

I made a good deal at first to cut big thick limb and topping off trees. The owner's workers did a good job. To save me money he said he would leave the debris for city pickup which is done free. Well I left to my business and when I returned he left 3 huge piles of large branches, the stumps hidden under debris and leaves of course. Well a week finally came and the city did not pickup but left a notice that only 1 small pile 5feet by 1foot was to be left in order for them to take. So I texted the owner and he never texted back. So another week of eyesore left in front of my house. Finally had my carpenter do it and he did a great job all by himself and a small pick up truck and for a great price. Another tree guy gave me a 600$ estimate. What a racket this has become. read more

We had two palm trees trimmed, several trees trimmed, thee Japanese Maples "rescued" with protective edging, a tough stump removed, and so forth. This work bought more daylight and beauty into our meditation garden--so much so that we are still getting used to the new, wonderful look! If you are looking for reasonable, tree service by truly professional people, you cannot beat Torres Tree Service. Rev. Paul L. Peck read more

I had scheduled tree trimming service 2 weeks out for 7:30 AM on specific date. At 8 AM on that day, I called and called and finally someone called me back. The person told me that an employee had a heart attack that morning and every one was at the hospital and she will call me back to resched. I said I wish your employe only the best and I understand. I followed up with email and call to the owner with no response later in afternoon. I called after 6 pm to see how the employee was and to resched since my city was going to levy fines if my trees were not cut the next day. I received a text from Torres saying because of rain the next day all operations were postponed and that's it. So now the excuse for not re-scheduling to come to my house was rain?! I checked forecast and it said 30% chance of rain at 2 PM for an hour??? They left me high and dry with zero communication. They did not care about me as a customer at all. They made me sign a contract for the exact day and they did not show up or call me as to why. I am a very understanding person, but Torres was unprofessional and did not take care of this customer. I had to hire a different tree service to do the job. Sorry for bad review... read more

We contacted Torres to trim our huge black walnut tree in the backyard. Their quote was very reasonable and the work top notch. We asked them to leave all the wood and I was dreading coming home from work and finding branches all over the backyard. Much to my surprise they had cut up all the branches and stacked them all in one neat pile. Saved us tons of time and effort. I highly recommend and will definitely use them for any future tree trimming. read more

These guys insist on tossing their business cards onto my driveway, and I really don't appreciate having to pick up someone else's trash. I'll use other tree services that have a higher regard for potential customers. read more
