Tony Gomez Tree Service & Landscape Maintenance

This company is a JOKE! DO NOT HIRE THEM. I did not hire them but they did work on my neighbors yards on the street. They did work on my street and parked in front of my house on my driveway without my permission and left a HUGE mess of oil on my freshly resealed driveway. I spoke to the company no less than 3 times and they promised to come clean it up. As of today, more than 3 weeks later, they have yet to clean it up. SLOPPY, UNPROFESSIONAL, & IRRESPONSIBLE!

HORRIBLE. My neighbor used these guys to cut down a huge tree at the back of our properties. They were loud, talking constantly, didn’t use proper safety techniques or other protections for neighboring properties. But the worst part was they KNEW the tree was protected due to owls nesting there — it’s been protected for nearly 10 years. They were told many times and acknowledged that they couldn’t cut down a tree that was used for nesting and continued to cut it down ANYWAY because the neighbor was paying them and they didn’t want to lose the job. We called it in to the City and they are investigating. I hope they get what’s coming to them.

What can I say… Tony Gomez Tree Service was AMAZING! I had six giant 75 foot plus Palm trees that needed to come down. I had received several bids in having them taken down and Tony’s bid was the most reasonable and not to mention I felt the most comfortable using them. I even had some company’s refuse to take on the job due to the danger and overwhelming job that it entailed. I lived in fear of the Palms falling onto my home or a neighbors home as we had one of the Palms fall and crash already the week before (yes, palms can fall and thank goodness no one was injured and not much damage was done) Tony’s guys fearlessly took on the task. I have never seen men work so hard as his crew did. I was told the job may take four days and they completed in two and a half days. It was very impressive to say the least. I highly recommend Tony’s Tree Service!!! I will continue to refer them as well as use them for my next big Palm tree project in the future!

I don’t understand some of the comments left… we have used Tony for many years… always professional and some of the hardest working men I have seen… his prices are fair and very reasonable.

Should have read previous reviews. Company NEVER returns phone calls. Trimmed palms left a mess and refuse to complete the job.

We hired Tony Gomez Tree Service to remove a 60′+ palm tree from our yard. They showed up on time, listened to what we needed done and were professional, and efficient. They did a great job and cleaned everything up before they left. A great service and the best price in town. We would definitely use them again!

My next-​door neighbor used these guys to remove a large Ficus tree growing on her side of our common fence. After the tree was removed a large part of my patio and yard were covered in sawdust and neither Tony Gomez nor his crew were anywhere to be found. He left me a couple of hours of sweeping and cleanup due to the mess he created in my yard. My neighbor was very embarrassed. Gee Tony, I’ve never met you but I’m going to guess you’re a careless, inconsiderate amateur when it comes to tree service.

We’ve used Tony Gomez for our annual palm tree trimming for over 10 years. Their prices are reasonable, and have been great about not disturbing he tenants, and keep the nasty staining palm tree berries from littering the sidewalk.

Let me preface this review by saying that I neglected to read these reviews prior to hiring Tony Gomez Tree Service, and I’m glad that I did, as I might have missed out on their great prices.
My experience with this company was much different than most of the others which are posted here.
First, I’d like to address their fee, which is the main reason that I gave for the five stars.
I had a row of dead trees, and a couple of live ones, which bordered my driveway. Many had already toppled a bit, and it was pretty much a mess due to neglect.
I obtained three estimates. Without going to the specifics as far as the actual prices, I will say that Tony Gomez Tree Service beat the first estimate by 59% and the second estimate by 33%. This was a HUGE savings for me! This was not any type of a negotiated or haggled estimate either, it was what they initially offered to do the job for. I should add that I never told them what the other estimates came in at, only that I had a couple of them.
To be fair, I should also add that I had a Queen Palm that I need cleaned up too, and asked how much more that would run. Their fee for that tree was just a tad higher than the others, but only by $ 5.00-$ 10.00.
When I was re-​contacted by the person who gave me my second estimate, I told him the amount that Tony Gomez Tree Service would do the job for. Guy #2 told me there’s no way he could do any better and even told me if I had the numbers correct, then I should just hire them, as their price was unbeatable. He even wondered if I had been mis-​quoted by accident.
The workers arrived on time and the job was completed pretty much within the time period that they said it would be. For the most part, everything was cleaned up pretty well afterwards. They even took off a couple of dead branches from another tree, which was close to the main job, at no extra charge.
After the crew had left after the completion of the job, I later discovered that a 12′ tree trunk had been left behind. This was one that had fallen over years ago, however part of our agreement was they would remove all of the debris. The trunk was sort of nestled in an area that would be easy to miss.
I placed a call to Tony Gomez Tree Service and left a message. I did receive a return call the following day, and the trunk was later removed that same day with no hassle.
Again, I want to reiterate that the main reason for five stars was due to their fees, however even putting that aside, I felt they did a good job and I would definitely hire them again.

The workers were extremely unprofessional, reckless and careless.

To say I was furious would be an understatement! These unprofessional idiots were hired by my neighbor. Without any notice they park a huge truck in my front yard! Then they drag a piece of equipment over an asphalt curb and leave a big gouge they also helped themselves to some of my landscaping material to use for a ramp. They left a bunch of branches on my private road. The empty drink bottle thrown on my yard next to the trash can says it all. These guys just don’t give a damn! I should have called the Sheriff and reported the CRIMINAL TRESPASS!

Let me start out by saying that I understand everyone else’s terrible reviews as I’ve had one-​star experiences with places that have only five-​star ratings … we all have different experiences, and I certainly have with Tony Gomez.
We worked with Tony Gomez in 2001 or so to remove a huge-​trunked, terribly-​placed palm tree. They did a fine job and their prices were reasonable.
For the past two years, one of our neighbors has coordinated them to trim about 100 palm trees here in Kensington since the City isn’t doing it any more. They gave an excellent quantity discount, making it more affordable than you can imagine. They did a great job with their boom truck, cleaned up their mess, and their crews were very, very nice.

Couldn’t trim a tree if their life depended on it. They will kill it yes trim it no

A good business doesn’t say it can do a job and doesn’t show up without warning.
A good business doesn’t say they will meet you in the middle of a work day (and they picked the time) and show up 1 hour late without warning. Think we got all day for you? We work too!
A good business doesn’t let it’s workers sleep under and around the truck in my backyard, at 2:30pm (ya no, it wasn’t lunch hour — they had already taken that) when there is branches to chip and debris to clean up… oh but they were waiting on someone. Give me a break.

I was impressed when I met him, but everything else was not quality. They did not return my calls with an updated estimate and came by my house today unannounced to do the work. We were supposed to meet tomorrow morning. Additionally they butchered my shade trees. It’s June… Summer…and I have no shade. I’m furious.

I had a great experience with this company– I saw them working at a neighbor’s house and asked for a card. Then I went online to the website.
I called and asked for the free estimate for tree trimming– Tony was at my house on time for our appointment. I found him to be very knowledgeable and thoughtful about the tree project at my house.
During our consultation he offered a few options for my tree trimming and explained each one in detail. He was very friendly and helpful but left the final decision up to me… no pressure. All of the quotes were very reasonable compared to other tree people I talked with.
It took 2 days to complete the project. The workers were friendly and professional. They cleaned up everything when the job was done… I will definitely work with this company in the future.

I give Tony minus stars! He was hired by my neighbor in the fall on 2011 to chop down a palm tree that was in my yard. He refused to haul away the tree and so I aksed him to please be sure the tree was in small pieces so that I could carry them upstairs to the front yard for disposal. I am a woman 5’2″ tall and weigh 140 pounds. He showed up hour late and then asked if he could reschedule the appointment for the following day. I wanted to be home to supervise the work but since my neighbor was paying to have the tree chopped down I agreed for him to come back. He came the next day four hours late when I was at work and left big peices of the palm tree in my back yard too heavy for me to lift. When I called back his company his receptionist told me Tony would call me back. He did not. I called a second time to ask him to return to make the pieces of the tree smaller for me to carry. He did not return my call. It appears that since I was the person who paid him, he did not care. When I aksed my neighbor to call him she said that she would call him because she knew he did not care and would not return to do the job as promised.

This place is a joke!
Less than one star service.
Cheap prices sure, and it is obvious why that is.
Tony’s crew is a joke.
I had to call these guys five or six times to come complete the job. They showed up over six hours late to start, didn’t finish and said they will be back the following day. They came back over a week later after I complained.
I had to call these guys over a period of two months to complete this job. I ended up putting an add on CraigsList to remove all the wood from my yard cause I was sick of waiting on an incompetent, unprofessional tree service.
They destroyed my front yard and didn’t even completely remove the stump. They left tree limbs on my roof and broke flowerpots in my yard. These guys should NOT be in business.
DISGUSTED WITH THE QUALITY OF SERVICE, OR LACK-​THERE-​OF…

Called to have an estimate on a large pine tree at our rental propery and never got a call back! Called 1 week later, they appologized, said it was on his desk, and that he should have taken a look at it and would get an estmate for me immediatly. Never heard back from them AGAIN! Guess they dont need the work?
