These guys were cutting a neighbors tree and we asked them to chip a pile of limbs for us. They were fast, efficient and left everything clean. Would definitely use the again. read more

Tropical Tree Care did a wonderful job cutting several trees on my property that posed a safety hazard. They gave a fair quote for the work, took careful care not to hit the waterline on my property, and did the work in a prompt manner. read more

Beware...the owner has a very bad attitude. Extremely poor business person. He had his crew trespass into my yard without my permission and climb my tree to trim some branches. His customer doesn't like my tree and is doing everything possible to kill it. Customer has been told multiple times they are free to trim any branches that go over the property line as that is the law, but they MUST do it from their side of the fence. That request has been totally ignored. Caught employee of Tropical Tree in my tree one day without the proper safety gear (no helmet, no gloves, and no eye or ear protection--and he was about 20' off the ground). He continued to cut branches as I hollered at him to get out of my tree and out of my yard. Called the police and filed a trespass complaint. When I called the owner Zack, his snotty comment was that I should be happy that the work got done. No apology for the trespass, as well as leaving some cuttings in my yard. That was the wrong response as it has now earned him a bad review. I generally don't write stuff on Yelp, but the owner's response was such that I don't believe he deserves any recommendations...he doesn't respect the rule of law or the residents of the community where he does his business. read more

This is the second time we have used Tropical Tree Care and I would have to say this second time around the lack of information from Zack was more apparent. First time we used Tropical Tree we had some trees removed along with some stump grinding. The guys who do the removal are quick and very professional and are excellent at their jobs. The problem with information from Zack is he's great a providing a quote, but that's the extent you are going to hear from him. On our first job we waited a couple months to have the stumps removed due to their stump grinder was down. Totally understand that these things happened, but we never heard about when we were going to expect them to show. The second time, once again Zack is great at coming over and giving a quote and is very positive about what they can do. Guys came over removed the trees they were supposed to remove, but once again Zack is gone and the job isn't done to what was told us. We had a banyan tree that was to be removed and taken as low as possible. We were very aware that they weren't going to be able to remove the stump, but we didn't expect a 3 foot stump. We also had to have the crew remove some palms that were in the quote (palms obstructing our view), but not removed fully. We had the stump removal guy come to our house today and removed the only stump he was able to remove and were informed at that time that the banyan tree was as low as it could go. My biggest complaint and one that Tropical Tree needs to fix is to have the guy who provided the quote do a follow up when the work is done to go over any issues incurred or go over the finished project. I had to call Zack about the job and he told me at that time they wouldn't be able to lower the tree any more and that they are not in the business of poisoning the tree once they cut it back. All information which would have been nice to know when they finished that day. I am now going to have to find another company to finish what Tropical Tree started. I will not be using Tropical Tree Care again and for the much higher prices you pay with them the service doesn't match it. On a positive note: Professional crew, Arlene was great. read more

Yesterday 10/29, Tropical Tree Care was out trimmed a HOA tree behind our unit. The foreman and especially the gentleman who trimmed the tree did a fantastic job. Wish the tree could always look like it does now. My 'thank you' for doing a wonderful job. read more

Aloha Yelp Community - I had Tropical Tree Care (TTC) provide an estimate two weeks ago to remove five large trees and perform some minor trimming on another tree. Zack (TTC) came out and promptly provided an estimate. Zack was very professional, knowledgeable and personable. I also requested two additional professional tree service companies to provide estimates for the same scope of work. Upon reviewing all three estimates, TTC was the clear winner with the best price! Zack quickly scheduled a start date to begin the work. On the morning crews started Zack reviewed the removal plan and safety measures with the crew (crew leader was awesome). The job took all day and the crew worked very efficiently with outstanding clean up ! ! ! Having a horticulture and arboriculture background and seeing the work they performed, I would highly recommend TTC for any work you may have related to trees. Great Job! PS: Arleen was also amazing and very communicative in the process of customer service and emailing and getting the estimate to us in a timely manner. read more

Needed a few clumps of palm trees and one big palm tree cut down. Zack came out for the estimate, after waiting 3 weeks for the estimate and having to email them 2 times because they never provided a quote, here was my answer. "Aloha Robbie, Unfortunately we need to decline providing an estimate for your project. Our schedule has been and continues to be full; so we cannot take on any new projects at this time Arlene" :( read more

We have been using Tropical at least twice a year for The last three years. Their crews have been reliable, courteous and thorough. Our palms look great and They leave a tidy yard! read more

Zack was very professional; he showed up and evaluated the trees in question and provided bid in writing within 24 hours. His crew showed up; 6 guys to cut trees, trim hedges, remove debris and remove stumps within a 3 to 4 hour period, guys were very professional. I have literally called local companies owned and operated out of Waimea and they fail to follow through with either a written bid or just to do the job. And, they are AS expensive and prefer cash!!!! Tropical Tree Care is our annual yard care business because they-will be in business for a long time. Good luck to the other guys, Jack! read more

We were AWED by the quality of service from Tropical Tree Care. Zack and the guys had to cut down massive "dead' O'hea and Guava Trees close to our new rock walls and driveway without damaging them. Their "State of the art" equipment did the trick. When they were done, the only thing they left behind were empty spaces where trees used to be. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED read more

We researched various tree trimming companies & invited bids to cut back our heirloom, 100+ year-old lychee tree. Zack, Tropical Tree Care owner, and certified arborist, won our trust, after his in-person site visit, his detailed written job plan & fair/reasonable cost. His crew arrived promptly on the agreed date & precisely adhered to the contracted plan. We couldn't be happier with the end result. Zack's 7-8 men crew impressed us with their teamwork, professionalism & quiet, efficient job performance. They cleaned up all the trimmings & green waste. After they left, there was no observable debris on our property. We highly recommend Zack & his team not merely for their integrity & work ethic but because we witnessed their conscientious job safety protocol as they worked to deliver us a more than satisfactory job product. read more

If Yelp had a sixth star option, I'd give it to Tropical Tree Care! Zack showed up ON TIME and provided a timely estimate which presented an EXCEPTIONAL value compared to bids I received from other tree services. On the day of service, the crew showed up on time (actually a bit early, thankfully), did a marvelous job, and stayed on budget. Cleanup was great. The crew left no trace behind...except for a nicely pruned avocado tree. Definitely using them again! read more

Had a huge tree that needed to be lowered or removed, TTC sent someone out right away, knowledgeable, agreeable, and could do the work soon.. all good, but the price was over the moon, so I had someone else come, right away, give a knowledgeable plan of action, very well thought out, came within days, and was 1/3rd the price... good for me... read more

These guys do great work! I just purchased a home in Kailua and noticed that many of the trees that bordered the property were in need of some maintenance - especially high up where they were top heavy. I schedule an appointment and Tropical Tree Care was on-time as promised and they quickly delivered exactly what was needed with the right equipment and a very active group of workers. I am very satisfied. I also had them prune back some Mango trees on the property so that we can get better harvests in the future. These guys will be my tree guys in the future and I recommend them to you. read more

These guys were awesome! In Kona its hard to find a company that comes out when they say they will and does everything in a timely manner at a good price. If this is what you are looking for then these are your guys. read more

Zac and his team were very professional, worked quickly and safely in our yard which had some large, challenging trees and really pesky ants. I liked how he called a pre shift meeting before starting work to review the challenges of the job. Great service and competitive prices. Hired him for a second big job afterwards. read more

I am so happy my wife found these guys on the internet. We just moved here in November, had so many things that needed to be done, and didn't know who to call, I was very apprehensive about what to do. But then Zach came out to the house and I knew we were in good hands. He took the time to walk our property with us, patiently explaining different solutions and options. We had an estimate the next day, couldn't do everything at once, and still had questions, so Zach came out again to help us choose our priorities and fine tune the plan. When the day came, Zach came out and got the guys started, reviewing each job with them in advance. These young men knew what they were doing, worked hard, and most importantly, really cared about doing a good job and making sure we were happy. They worked their butts off for two days, and everything looks so much better. In an unexpected bonus, they doubled our ocean view! Wish I could remember all their names, but kudos and alohas to David, Boo, Bryce and all the guys. Bottom line: Why would you use anyone else? read more

These guys are great. I have used them three times and will be using them again. Organized, responsive and responsible, great price. I had major work done all three times and they came through with flying colors. read more
