Treemasters Capability Reviews

    "About a month ago we had several mature pistache, maple and apricot trees shaped and trimmed. These trees had never been properly pruned before, and I was afraid they wouldn't be able to do much with them, but they turned out beautifully. They showed up with a crew of 5 men, and quickly reduced the size and cleaned up the form on all the trees. They cleaned up the mess in my and my neighbors' yards, put all the trimmings through the shredder and left my garden looking better than it did before they came. I will definitely call Treemasters back to take care my trees on a regular basis in the future."

    —Lane Y., Novato CA

     



    "Today Treemasters removed a 75' Italian Poplar that was growing into my garage. It was on my behind-the-house neighbor's property, and she hired them to do the work. There must have been 7 workers; I watched it off and on all day and it was like watching a precision orchestra. The soundtrack was chain saws and voices of confidence. They took great care and did the entire job using men in the tree and pulleys. A bit of tree debris got on my yard and garage roof and they cleaned it up perfectly. In addition, they did not damage my neighbor's beautiful garden that went up practically to the tree. I would highly recommend them!"

    "We have used Treemasters twice now to trim trees in our yard. Dave, the estimator, is very professional in his approach and gives excellent advice. They keep in touch via email and schedule work to be done to suit the customer and then they show up at the appointed time. The crew is very efficient and clean up after themselves. I would highly recommend this service."

    —Esther J., Novato CA


    "More than anyone expects these days. Prompt - 8am they were here. 4 gentlemen with 'out of the laundry' clean shirts and jeans, a truck that was very clean and painted, pleasant greeting. Carlos, the job boss introduces himself to me, very pleasant, crew is pleasant. Good start. I'm impressed. Shortly a very large truck comes backing up on my more than difficult It is one lane, curvy, deer trail street. Not easy. Holding my breath for my neighbors cars and fences, but feeling confident because these guys know what they are doing and work as a team. OBVIOUSLY they've done this many times before. YEAH!!!! Making the final turn to my home, the end of the street, a tough 90 turn with my neighbors cars parked at the corner (it was too late to tell them last night, when I finally remembered I should give them a 'heads up'). No problem. Soon the opns boss that quoted me the job showed up, assured me, picked up the contract, pay me when the job is done, walked through the job with his crew chief, and left. Once again, I'm totally reassured by the professional operations. I should mention they gave me copies of all of their insurance and works. comp with my contract. NICE. REASSURING.

    They talk to me, give me an outline and setup. Move my car down the road please so they can haul up branches from the 70* hill easier with the assist of the truck wench. No problem. Move my car, they go to work, I have coffee. Now we have 5 men working quietly, smartly, efficiently and i can chill. Every hour or more, i would walk my dog and check to make sure that we are all on the same page.

    They checked with me on each phase of the job; down the hill, the view, right side of the house, left side of the house,down the hill in the front of the house. Happily adjust as I related what I wanted or expected. All good. All done. I forgot to mention, the price was a true value as well. Not cheap, but fair. You get what you pay for. I would highly recommend this company, Carlos and his crew, to anyone. They do it right!"

    —Ken V., San Rafael CA


    "I wish I had more trees to remove!!! These people were terrific from the estimate all the way to the removal of the trees. They came a little early and I was gone. They cut, removed and cleaned up the mess in less than one hour. Our HOA has used other tree services and none compare!!"

    —Rogue P., San Rafael CA


    "I like to think I'm pretty handy. I don't easily shy away from household projects and I'm definitely a do it yourselfer. There's one thing, no way no how, that I'll do myself, and that's cut down or trim trees. I don't A) have the know how, or B) have the right equipment to do it safely. Too bad, because we have tons of trees on our property. Luckily, I found out about Treemasters early on and have been using them each and every time a tree-related emergency presents itself or just to do some regular upkeep. They are very professional and I've always been happy with the work they've done at our place. I've never had to clean up branches or bits of wood after they've been here and they leave the trees looking healthy and happy."

    —Daniel S., San Rafael CA


    "I just had two large trees removed from my property by Treemasters. Unlike other companies that I have used before, they did an efficient, SAFE and thorough job, leaving not a trace of sawdust or other debris behind for me and my neighbors to clean up. Very professional. I recommend them highly."

    —Maxine L., San Francisco CA


    "Treemasters does great work, from start to finish. The arborist who gave me the initial consultation was very knowledgeable. We had a variety of issues and he walked me through each of his recommendations. After our conversation, using his "mobile office" he provided a detailed quote (tree by tree) with photos to show exactly what would be done, just as we had discussed. The team that did the work did an excellet job, and they left my yard cleaner than it started! I am very pleased with the results. My trees look great and the cost was very reasonable. Highly recommended!"
