Tomas Arborist Tree Care

DO NOT USE THOMAS! HE IS DISHONEST AND DID A HALF-​ASS JOB!
I saw Thomas’ great reviews on Unilocal and decided to use him. I got an estimate from him to trim my Palm trees and we scheduled a time for him to do the job. He passes by unannounced a couple of days later and wants to trim the palms right then. I tried to be accommodating, so let him do it.
After he trimmed the first Palm, he tells me the price we had agreed to is now higher. I thought maybe we had a misunderstanding because he doesn’t speak the best English, so I took his word for it.
Then he tells me he will not trim the other Palm tree because my roommate’s car is under it and says he will be back to trim it… That was over a month ago. He has never returned to finish the job.
I have called him several times and gotten two different answers of why he won’t cut the other Palm tree. First, his daughter claimed he doesn’t trim trees anymore because business is slow. Later his son says it was because it’s too expensive to dispose of the Palm branches.
Either way, he should be an honest business man and finish the job.

They did a great job. They trimmed and shaped a large Jacaranda tree and another large tree. The level of shaping/​lacing was much better than was done previously by two bigger-​name companies. The entire job was done without chainsaws, making for a much quieter experience. Then they took to clippings off in a large bucket truck to be ground up elsewhere. I highly recommend them.

These guys were great. I had some wildly overgrown bushes and trees, a queen palm that needed trimming and a giant stump that needed grinding.
Tomas and his crew showed up exactly on time (a little early even), were very pleasant and did an amazing job. Really amazing. I even added a few extra jobs while they were here, and they graciously took them on.
The price seemed really reasonable and they cleaned everything up perfectly. In fact, the yard looked way better when they left then when they got there.
Also, the stump that needed grinding was dangerously close to the main water line to the house. Tomas and his crew took special care not to do anything to damage it, which meant digging a trench so they could see exactly where the pipe was, then filling it back in when they were done.
Will definitely use them again.

Tomas and his crew were terrific. They came out promptly and worked quickly, he was reasonably priced, and did excellent work. We originally called him to remove one stump, but ended up having him remove three trees, replanting one of them, in addition to the huge stump. He is incredibly polite as was his crew, and he seemed very knowledgeable. We will use him again.

Tomas and his family came around to our house today to take care of our trees.
They arrived early with a 60 foot bucket truck and started promptly. They thinned, pruned and shaped a young olive tree, a large ornamental plum tree and two carrot woods. The also removed a wild tree and stump at the side of our house, which had been a very tricky customer over the years, and it took a lot of hard work and effort to remove this one. At one stage all 4 guys were working on it, and I like to point out, that they didn’t just remove the stump, but then also took out the large, heavy roots that were on both sides of the tree. In order to get close enough they had to cut out part of the wooden fence and remove sprinkler pipes. Tomas’ crew worked methodically and patiently on removing the tree, and then beautifully cleaned up the site. They brushed and removed all debris, and left my yard in perfect condition after they had left.
Whilst working at our house, they also removed a couple more stumps in the backyard, and a large stump of a king palm in one of my neighbor’s front yard.
We both felt very happy about Tomas’ service. What a great family they are. He is passionate about his work, careful and polite, and you often hear him cross checking with his sons «es bonito? es bonito?». They had answered my call promptly, came around for a quote immediately and gave me a reasonable price for the work. Their flyer says that they are fully insured, they are licensed and A+ BBB accredited. They offer tree trimming, complete stump grinding, artistic pruning, stump removal, fruit tree pruning, fertilizing, tree lacing, and specialize in palms.
I will recommend Tomas to any of my neighbors, and will gladly have him work for us again.
