Summit Tree Service

I have read some of the comments fro Summit Tree Service. I have no idea who Felipe is and I don’t care. The real man behind Summit is Barney Wagner. I have used Barney for over 20 years and he has always been excellent. Safe, good crew, reliable, and knows what he is doing

Barney Wagner is the best and orignal Tree Surgeon from the Santa Cruz Mountains. He can do just about anything in a tree. He does excellent tree service, with the power to do the big jobs. Go with the expierienced and skilled, Summit Tree Service all the way!!!

I had a sizable job with multiple large trees that needed to be removed. I called Felipe — an estimator showed up same afternoon and they started the work the next morning. Their price was very competitive, they managed to handle some tricky trees (hanging over power lines and house) very proficiently. The whole thing took 8 days and they did an excellent cleanup job every day so the neighbors did not complain.
I would highly recommend them.

Felipe Mecina from Summit Tree Service was recommended to us by our realtor, but he turned out to be unreliable and a complete rip-​off. We needed some junipers removed from the backyard, and he quoted me $ 1000. As if doing us a favor, he said it will be $ 900 if we pay in cash. Not only did he not show up the day of duty, he was unreachable by phone. I left messages and never got a response back. Fortunately, I obtained another estimate and ended up getting the junipers removed for $ 300. So I guess it was a blessing that Felipe did not show up, or else we would have overpaid by a lot. If you still want to use them after reading this review, please get someone cheaper and let me pocket the difference! (I need a new flower bed where the junipers were… or a new SUV).
