Great work, solid company, very reliable, straight forward communication, and no bad surprises. I would definitely hire them again. The work for our trees isn't easy. We have talk trees on a very steep hill. They did great!
Urban Arborist did a terrific job trimming a mature old San Francisco native Islais Cherry tree. This was the first major trimming of this tree since I had planted it 15 years ago, and I was completely impressed with the work performed.
I highly recommend the Urban Arborist. We had some HUGE trees in SF that needed to be removed and it was a really tricky job in terms of one was across the fenceline with the neighbor, another was supporting a retaining wall so that had to be accounted for and the only access was through the house. The whole team did an amazing job over a couple of days to get these trees taken out. They took a great deal of care to prep the route through the house to ensure nothing was damaged or dirtied. I am in awe of how easily the seemed to make such a complex, big job. I am not sure many other arborists would have been able to handle it plus handle it so efficiently, professionally and cost-effectively. I can't recommend them enough.
We've trusted the staff from Urban Arborist for years and have brought them along to homes as we've moved around the city. They are easy to work with, professional and tidy. They will take the time to explain what's best for each type of job as it pertains to the trees and surrounding landscaping to make sure you're happy and understand what is possible while keeping the trees healthy and thriving. Will be calling them bank out this coming year.
