Joel's Tree Services
We like to ensure the customer is happy. Satisfaction of the customer is our top priority. We serve homeowners, property management companies and rental agencies and have been in business for 16 years. Joel came the day I called him and gave me an estimate and a commitment to be there the next afternoon.

The crew arrived as promised and hit the ground ready to go. You had to be there to really appreciate the job. It was jammed in a corner between a pergola and the house and facing the neighbor's yard where the fence had collapsed in the last windstorm. The stump was huge, both wide and tall with massive roots running in several directions.

Joel's crew managed to maneuver a machine the size of a small Zamboni into the area and completely remove the stump and roots by grinding most of them into mulch. All without so much as scratching the concrete, damaging the electrical services, or drains for the two pools that surrounded the area. It truly was a sight to see.

Joel's Tree Service got us scheduled in one day, instead of the 14 day schedule Joel said he could get us in. In 2 hours the crew had finished and cleaned up. The shaping of the tree was very professional and structured well.

They were so nice e & polite & did such a great job on our palm trees; took out a huge one in front yard. They left our yards so clean & took everything away. My trees look beautiful - very good company!

Called to get an estimate and joel came the very next morning. Maybe an hour after getting my quote his crew was out to remove the tree. The crew did a great job even covered the hole in where the trunk was removed, which I thought was great, since it was in the front yard and i was worried about getting it covered so no one would fall and sue. Doesn't even look like a tree existed there. Very good job!!

Critical: Professionalism, Value
Joel’s Tree Service continues to lie about other companies he is bidding against. Slandering a company in order to try to steal business is a ridiculous way to contract. Be aware!!!!

This is a business you can trust. I would use this again myself, and recommend it to others. A family member had two trees removed in a couple hours. The team of workman was so fast, knowledgeable, and experienced. They worked as a team and got it done swiftly and well. We were amazed by the skill of the man with the chainsaw in the tree, because the tree was being removed due to its leaning over the house. The branches food not hit the roof coming down, but one barely touched the porch light and it shattered. The owner, who was present the whole time, replaced it free of charge. It was a great

The owner lies about other companies. He is slandering other business saying they are not licensed or insured when They are fully licensed and insured. Just to try to steal the business. It's companies like this that should not be able to operate. Bid the work like everyone else and quit lying.

It's so hard to know if you're getting a fair estimate or if the work will be satisfactory....I saw an ad in the Modesto Bee for Joel's Tree Service and also read several favorable reviews online....I called and Joel came right out and gave an estimate....We had quite a bit of work to be done...He gave us a very fair estimate including a senior discount....His workers came out promptly and worked very hard all day and came back the next morning to finish up....They not only trimmed trees and took out a few, they also got on the roof and blew out all the gutters....Then everything

Joel and his crew of four removed 3-4 very large trees, many smaller trees, and lots of brush over a two day period from my mother's property which burned in the West Fire last July. They were fast, efficient, and thorough in their work and at a very reasonable price. I found them to be very professional, too. I highly recommend their services.

Referred by a neighbor. Joel returned my call within minutes. Joel made an appointment for a quote and was on time. Schedule to take down two trees was within one week. Crew arrived on time. One 40 foot tree was in a tight space. Climber took every piece down exactly where no damage to adjacent structures. Crew cleaned up nicely. Very satisfied with quote and service. Highly recommended.

Never had to use a tree service before, picked Joel's Tree Service from internet reviews on HomeAdvisor. Called and Joel arrived next day with a fair estimate to remove 3, 40 foot limbs from olive tree and other trimming of the tree. Workers arrived 2 days later as scheduled. Very hardworking, professional crew, no wasted time. Work area left very clean. Very pleased and will call for any future tree services.

The fact I have a crazy life prevents me from remembering to write reviews, especially positive reviews for businesses that provide EXCELLENT service.

I called Joel's Tree Service 2 years ago to remove dead trees that were about to fall down. Ended up having to remove about 7 of them, and Jim (the man you want to talk too) was super accommodating with my schedule and was far more personal than 2 other companies who came out, one which neighbors swear by. (fyi, don't trust your neighbors, get 3 bids and go with who shows up on time, and who is the most down to earth, not cocky, as price

Joel's guys work hard and they got a tough job done right. There was a minor discrepancy but Joel personally took care of it and I would recommend work done again. Thanks!

We used Joel's Tree Service to take care of a fallen oak, remove a couple of stumps, and trim another tree in danger of doing some damage to the house in the future. We were very happy with the company! They were very professional, responsive, and went above and beyond our expectations. And the best part is that they gave us a fantastic price for the work!

Btw...prior to receiving this referral from a friend, we had called a big name tree company with lots of shiny trucks. After a couple of text exchanges, I have yet to hear back from the shiny truck company and that was 20 days ago

Joel came out promptly the same day I called for an estimate. He showed up when he said he would and gave me a great quote. Four days later the crew came out (on time) removed three birches and trimmed another. The guy who cut the trees down was amazing in his approach and made me realize there's a bit more to cutting trees than just hacking away with a chainsaw. They did an awesome job cleaning up the yard. I will use Joel's Tree Service for any of my future needs and would highly recommended Joel's Tree Service to anyone.

Do not use this tree service!!! Totally ripped off my grandma's rod-iron $300.00 bench that was in her yard. The crew claimed to have "moved" the bench to a specific spot in my grandma's yard, however we've looked EVERYWHERE and still no bench. Such a scam! I feel so terrible for my grandma who is in her late 70's and was totally taken advantage of. Potential law-suit is in effect.

Very rude street boss and a liar too. I politely asked him to move his huge truck off my curb (here in Sacramento, we pay for these damages) and asked him to park in front of the neighbor whose trees he was servicing (who has a HUGE corner lot with lots of space.). He said ok. When I backed out of my driveway 15 or 20 minutes later, the truck was still there. When I asked him whether he was going to move his truck, he said he would. When I got home several hours later, the truck was still there. When he saw l was writing down the number and website, he came over and asked what the problem
