Golden Tree Company

We had a good experience with Golden Tree Company and Tello and crew. They did an excellent job for us, trimming three Oaks and a Diodar Cedar.
They did an efficient job, working with us to trim the trees as we wished and did a good clean up job. And their prices are VERY competitive.
Tello & Co. can be a little hard to get a hold of as the are not a huge operation and are out on the job everyday but they know their stuff.
We highly recommend them.

We had a huge pine tree that had grown up next to a fence for more than 35 years and was causing damage to our neighbor’s patio. It was in a tight area behind a swimming pool, so there was virtually no access from our side. Golden Tree gave us what I thought was a very reasonable estimate and sent four men with two trucks and a wood chipper to take the tree down. They also trimmed a very tall hedge that extends for about 60 feet on the opposite side of our yard, reducing it to a height of about 10 – 11 feet.
I was truly impressed by the skill of the man who climbed the pine tree with a chainsaw and tied each branch segment to a very tall «sentinel branch» (to coin a phrase) that he had cut in such a way as to project over my neighbor’s side of the fence. Draping a rope over a fork in the sentinel branch, he expertly attached one end of the rope to each heavy segment, cut below the rope, and then swung the heavy segment across the fence before lowering it into my neighbor’s yard. By doing this, he avoided any damage to the pool equipment and to a decorative Japanese-​style fence on our property, and also to the boundary fence.
The men put the small mountain of resulting debris through a chipper and did a great job of cleaning up afterwards. Our driveway and street are much cleaner now, after these guys left, than they were before they arrived. Highly recommended.

Once again, Tello came out, promised to give an estimate and never called or mailed an estimate. This has been an on-​going problem since 2011. Why do I bother? Because I have an awesome landscaper who use to work with Tello’s father and recommends him. The only reason he came out this time is because my landscaper was present.
After four years, I have the same problem. I am beginning to think the company does not want new business or, perhaps, any business at all. I am very disappointed and would never recommend this company.

These guys does great work with reasonable price, Very polite and clean up afterwards. I’ve used them for years. The only problem, as others mentioned, is actually getting them on your site to do the work.

I don’t know how good/​bad their tree-​removal service is but I can second others who say they are near impossible to get a hold of. They kept telling me they’d return my calls but never did. On calling them once they mentioned they’d get the job done within the week but didn’t contact me after that.

Tello and his team were fantastic. They removed a 100ft redwood tree as well as 25 other tree stumps. They made sure that the removal was 100% complete. They were all very professional, they never left construction material all over the place, they always cleaned up at the end of every day. Also, Tello is very responsive, he always picks up his phone and/​or returns my call within a hour or so. Lastly, their prices are ultra competitive. I am definitely impressed and would highly recommend them to everyone needing tree removal.

My neighbors recommended this company since they used it and really liked it. I am really happy with Tello’s work as well. He did a fantastic job. It was like watching an artist at work. My trees all have a nice shape now. I gave him the general idea of what I wanted and he did the rest. I am really happy with the way everything turned out. He and his crew were on time, worked quickly, and cleaned everything up after they were done. The price was very reasonable as well. Thanks!

The Good: they were fast, and got the tree removed and job done in about a day.
The Bad– BEWARE HOMEOWNERS: While happy with the tree removal service, I was unimpressed by conduct of the staff. Hubby and I were in the middle of a kitchen remodel and my backyard was rather full of some of the construction materials. This company was the only outside help at my home this particular day. I think perhaps these tree guys must have thought the aluminum trim pieces we had waiting to be brought in and installed in my kitchen was worth more recycled then it would have been accenting my kitchen and decided to help themselves to it when they packed up to leave.

I really enjoyed working with this company. Gus is prompt and the guys are very easy to work with. The prices are very fair. I am going to have them trim all of my trees annually.

Great service I called the for an estimate got a very reasonable price the young man was very nice and helped beautify my tree by opening it up and cleaning up the inside. Would highly recommend to friends !
