High Tech Tree Care

He just pulled the same scam in Danville off of El Cerro a couple weeks ago.
He also goes by:
*NEW VIEW TREE CARE
*NEW VIEW TREE SERVICE
*ONE WAY TREE SERVICE
*VIEW MAINTENANCE & LANDSCAPING.
and he is operating with an invalid license.
Apparently he’s a scam artist. Hopefully he gets caught.

They pull off same thing on me

Jaime,
They didn’t return to you because they were in our Moraga neighborhood pulling the same scam. I came across Adam and his crew as they were doing a major project in the cul de sac just around the corner from my home. It appeared that every home was having some work done, and they even had a full on construction dumpster situated in the cul de sac for the debris. Looked like a very legit operation to me. Adam told me that all of the homes he was working on were regular customers. I am planning on knocking on at least one of the doors to see what their experience was. Anyway, they came and removed some trees and trimmed some others. Nice work actually. The day ended with Adam telling me that someone would return later to plant 4 trees that I paid for, as well as pressure washing and clean up that was part of our agreement. That was on ⁹⁄₂₀. Have not heard a peep since then, and have experienced the same full voicemail as you. I have even texted twice. One nicely asking when they would return, and a follow up threatening legal action. I noticed a huge pile of tree debris and wood stacked in the road just around the corner. No doubt more of Adam and crew’s handy work. Have you taken legal action, or figured out a way to get to them. Please let me know.

Let me preface this review with the fact that I cringe even giving this business one star! It is THAT bad!
I am writing this review after 5 weeks of time and $ 7,500 of money WASTED on High Tech Tree Service. Adam is the «owner» of this business; however, you can hardly call him a business owner, as he is, hands down, the most unreliable, irresponsible and now most dishonest person I have ever worked with. Adam came and bid a tree trimming job, which, after convincing my husband (and myself) of the complete backyard renovation he could do within a few weeks, we decided to pull the trigger and create the backyard we had been wanting. He gave us a great price and assured us that he and his crew would be onsite every day to get the work done. We paid the first ¹⁄₃ of the payment right away, so he could get started. He removed the trees in a timely manner but then left huge pieces of wood on the side of our house, telling us day after day that he would chip it and haul it away. He then came to us and stated that he needed another payment so that he could go buy the remainder of the material for the job. We hesitated but had him sign an agreement that he would finish the work by Sept. 19 or we would dock $ 100 per day. In the meantime, he received approximately 5 other jobs in our neighborhood because our neighbors trusted that we had hired a reputable guy and company. He also collected full payment for at least one of those jobs. Fast forward 5 weeks and we are left with over 30 pieces of dangerous rebar sticking out of our ground (keep in mind we have small children and dogs), nails spewed around in our dirt, and 2×4’s laying around. And we, along with our neighbor, have not been able to get a hold of Adam for 5 days. He will not answer his phone, has not returned ANY of our calls, and now has a full voicemail.
I am in the process of filing a formal complaint with the city, as this crook has taken probably over $ 10k from our neighborhood alone!
