I had the owner coming over for a free estimate and I decided to hire a different company to do the…read moresame work he recommended, for a significantly cheaper price. Red flags: - concerning selling techniques. Lean hard on fear and creating a bloated sense of urgency. I heard expressions like "you are in a big trouble my friend" or "you are going to lose your insurance" and of course "I have a crew here, I'll get them here tomorrow". The whole tone of the conversation was not professional and pushed to act as fast as I could. This accounts for 80% of the reason why I hired someone else. - knowledge: while the person continue to claim he was an expert, I was not able to see any signs of expertise. I actually heard a great deal of "I have no idea" on the few questions I was able to ask. He focused on triggering a fake sense of emergency while folks from other companies explained why the job was recommended by indicating the facts. I want to be clear on this point: I'm not saying this person is not knowledgeable, but he certainly did not show his knowledge during our conversation, so if you are planning to hire this company, I recommend checking this bit. - higher price compared with competitors: I interviewed 3 companies, this was the highest one, with a cost of about $300 more per tree. Also the other company did not need to use the crane. That alone saved a ton. - tricky ways to push you to do the job: while I have been very clear with the owner that I had to think before making a decision, just a few days later, the office called me to schedule the job, stressing that I had given verbal confirmation, so I had to book. I politely declined and explained I was not going to. They call again a few days after to try again... - badmouth the competition: always a bad sign when to build yourself you have to talk down others. Advices for folks looking for arborist: get at least 3 estimates, especially if you need to work on more than a tree. Don't fall for bad selling techniques. When pushed, take a moment to breath and focus on logic not induced fear. If a tree has been there for decades, it will likely give you some time to shop around for the best company to help you with. Finally, expect kindness and curtesy.

Mike was through and answered all our questions. We were scheduled promptly once we made a decision. We were kept well informed at all stages of the process when and how and what to expect. Garett and his team were very professional, friendly, and answered all questions. They did an excellent job removing the two trees and clean up afterwards! We will definitely go back when we need tree services in the future!

Sean gave us an honest assessment of the tree's health (likely fine, just in need of some cleanup) and gave us a very reasonable quote to remove the dead branches and do some light trimming. The work was done a few weeks later. They were quick, cleaned up throughly afterwards, and the tree looks great. Highly recommend Sean and Yolo County Arborist.

Not only is this team extremely knowledgeable about tree types, diseases, pruning timing, etc, but they also are meticulous in all aspects of the job. For example, they are careful when up in the air and use all the safety equipment necessary to make sure no one gets hurt. They also took care around our garden plants and irrigation system and tidied the area of sticks when they left. I definitely recommend these guys!

They cleaned out the branches so well the yards look even nicer than before! The tree now looks actually healthy and happy!

Fast forward to May 2022 when I initally called, and they have yet to remove a very tall dead redwood tree 3 months later - now it is August 4, 2022. I called them in May to have this done before the hot summer would start, now, summer is almost over and the redwood is looking quite dry and looks as if it is going to fall over onto my house or my neighbor's house any moment - see photo. I've called them several times and voiced my concerns and stressed the urgency of removing this tree. Each time I call, the person who answers does not know why it hasn't been done and has no new information to offer since last I spoke with him. I understand that it is challenging times with Covid, inflation, recession...etc. I am just frustrated with not getting a straight answer. If you say you are going to cut the tree June 6, please do so. Or if the company is inundated with too many projects or can't do it for personal reasons, just let the customer know instead of promising it will be done for 2 months. Again, 5 stars for 2018 service, only 2 stars for 2022 service (or lack of service).

I wanted to cancel but my husband is too nice and said to wait. The first Monday they showed up at 10:51 to start. It was only two men. I asked if there was more and the owner Ralph said no. For $8,400 just for labor there should be a crew and showing up early and staying for the day. These guys come and go throughout the day. They didn't level the dirt before sod was put down like I asked during the estimate. I asked Ralph if they could level the ground and haul the dirt off and he said yes. These guys just turned over the dirt with a shovel. Ralph is a salesman and fast talker. In the end we paid $14,110.00 and definitely was overpriced, understaffed, and it's just basic. The yard doesn't pop out. After seeing what our neighbors around here got and the price they paid I just look at my husband and tell him he should have let me cancel when they kept postponing the start date. He now says that he knows we should have canceled with Fuentes Landscaping. They didn't finish on time. Our home builder came to take out four pieces of cement by the side gate on Thursday and Ralph said that's a shame now they can't finish the River Rock by the side of the fence. Well it was supposed to be done by Tuesday like he told me. After all the coming and going and not showing up, calling me late to say they can't make it I thought at least they could come back to finish. They started 5/14 and finished 5/24. I had a previous house that had more sod and sprinklers done that was knocked out with a crew in a couple of days. Ralph kept asking me to refer him, put a sign in my yard advertising for him, write a review. He wasn't worried about the quality of work or giving good customer service. This was definitely a learning experience and money and time wasted.
