Consultation and Reports

On a case by case basis, we prepare and write reports for individuals to address various concerns. A few examples include the following:

Hazardous tree reports for homeowner. Letter to Cities recommending removal of hazardous trees (depending upon the circumstances).

Tree removal or pruning requests. Report recommendations re: root removal vs tree survivability. Report recommendations for proper tree care and preservation on construction sites or other properties.

Report on diseased trees.

David and his crew are the best. They trimmed our huge tree with skill, protected our other bushes and plants, and left our yard clean.

Trimmed Trees
He arrived on schedule with a crew that seemed very professional. I did not get bids from anyone else because a neighbor had recently used them and was very happy.
Description of work:
Cut back dead wood from Several trees (One had 12 broken branches)

TIM J. Los Angeles, CA

Cut back dead wood from several trees
Trimmed a very overgrown, large cedar tree. The crew was on time, extremely tidy and did a great job of assessing the needs of the tree and following through. They were in touch every step of the way and even sent photos, in real time, so I could clearly understand the scope of the job as it was developing! I would definitely use this company again for any tree or landscaping needs we have.

Extensive tree trimming, pruning, shaping of very tall, old trees – sycamore, magnolia, ficus, flowering pear. David and his crew were highly professional and did a great job. The price took us aback but considering the scope of the work involved, I’m sure it was fair. We highly recommend this company.

I had a little trouble connecting with Tree Preservation at first… David was on vacation… but he came out in July or August and gave me a bid, charging less because of the difficulty connecting. Later we scheduled the work for the first week in December. We confirmed again as the time drew near… and his crew came out as expected and did the work. It was a good crew… I was happy with the way they pruned trees and it was easy to talk to the crew leader (spoke good English and was a good communicator). David came out at the beginning and end of the job and we went over details. It’s clear the company knows trees and also knows the aesthetics of good pruning. I will be happy to have them return in future years.

Pruned Trees and Removed Dying Elm Tree
The team was clean, quick, professional, and very respectful of my garden, which they worked in and around without damaging at all. David and I planned job beforehand, and his team used a cherry picker to remove cuttings directly to street area, so that nothing fell to crush the garden. We plan to call them soon to work on our very tall grevallias.
Description of work:

David Sims and his team pruned a huge, overgrown yucca that most tree professionals do not want to work on, and a tall princess palm, and also pruned a dying old olive tree that we hope to resurrect.

Kimberly W. Los Angeles, CA

Pruned a Yucca Tree
I really liked David; he seems very honest and like he really cared about trees. I wanted him to prune another orange tree and, rather than taking my money, he said he didn’t like to prune trees in flower and that he could do it in the fall if I wanted. I appreciated his care for my trees. His estimations were a little spotty: $180 to trim an entire palm and then $270 to remove 20 fronds from another, which didn’t make a whole lot of sense. But he was willing to work with us when I told him another estimate I had received. The best was that he left us tons of free mulch from a job he had done the previous day. I have used that mulch all over my garden and yard and everything is growing great with it. Anyway, I’d definitely recommend Tree Preservation and will definitely use them in the future.

Cut Down a Dead Cypress Tree
David was really nice explaining how the crew would preserve the shape of the trees and cut the overgrowth. The crew was wonderful. They did such a great job shaping my overgrown trees to become healthy beautiful trees that no longer needed to be supported by 2×4’s to hold up the branches. My trees now look like the trees in garden books. BEAUTIFUL!
