Leaf It To Us Tree Service
Our motto is "No Hack Jobs" because we believe that trees should be delicately manicured to aid in the utmost vibrancy of their lives. When we aren't consulting and diagnosing we are removing trees and stumps, shaping, lacing, trimming, planting, cleaning and much more. We are passionate about our company and the service that we provide.

We understand that our growth and success relies in our ability to provide great service at reasonable prices. We are competitively priced in the areas we serve while providing our clients with a level of service and quality that brings repeat business and referrals. MISSION: to Safely and effectively educate our clients on the proper care and feeding of trees.

It depends on the situation. Following, are a list of questions you can ask that should help you decide whether or not an arborist's help might be needed. Do the leaves look right? Are they off color, withered, under-sized, or have dark blotches? Are limbs dying back from the ends? Are more insects than usual present?

Jose Bedoya started this company at a young age in 1991. He started out tree pruning in his father's company and quickly learned the proper care of trees after studying 10 plus years. His education consists of many hours in depth learning Arborculture and tree biology. Jose has studied and now teaches at Cuyamaca College.
An arborist is a professional who practices the cultivation, management, and study of individual trees, shrubs, vines and other perennial woody plants. Arborists generally focus on the health and safety of individual plants and trees, rather than managing forests or harvesting wood. An arborist's focus is distinctly different from that of foresters, loggers, landscapers or gardeners.
Cutting down & removing a tree is only half of a tree removal job - the remaining stump must be dealt with as well. A tree stump can be disposed of in one of two ways - removal or grinding. Depending on the size of a tree, the extent of its root system and other considerations, you may choose either of those options to remove an unsightly stump from your property.
Arborists are professionals trained and certified in the best existing practices of planting, caring and maintaining trees. Consulting arborists are the greatest authorities on matters linked to trees. They bring a widespread, impartial viewpoint to the diagnosis, appraisal and evaluation of arboricultural (tree) issues.
We had two tipu trees in our backyard that we were trying to do ourselves. Finally figured out that wasn't going to work. Had them come out. They did a fantastic job. The trees look amazing and you couldn't even tell they had been there, place was so clean. Would not hesitate to use them again.

I highly recommend using a certified arborist instead of just a tree removal company. Jose Bedoya and his team are top notch! I called for an estimate and Jose was at my door the same day. Instead of just charging us a fortune to remove trees, limbs, etc... we were educated and able to make decisions that left us with more beautiful results for a lot less money! Jose searched high and low for the perfect olive and rose trees. He was kind enough to send me photos along the way. The Leaf It To Us team really do live up to their name. The process was smooth sailing from beginning to end, thank you

Came and took down a very large, very rotten 75 year old tree, ground the stump, and planted a new RedPointe maple. Even checked on the maple in the Spring for us. Very reasonable price and left our yard clean. I would use them again!

Took (3) weeks for Jose to schedule to come over to do the work. Unfortunately, my neighbor's mason was pouring cement, so work couldn't be done. Jose said that he would reschedule. I waited another (3) weeks, until I texted him. The next day Jose said that he doesn't plan on doing the work because he doesn't really work down in Chula Vista. He recommended me getting someone else to do it.

Great Service at a Great Price! I had Jose come by for a arborist consult. After careful examination he came to the conclusion that my Monterey pines were dying and beyond saving. He left it up to me if we wanted to try for treatment for pine bark beetles. When the trees came down. Jose and his crew lead by Matt did a great job getting the trees down safely and cleaned up everything great so I couldn't even tell I had all the tree work done. They also did a fantastic job cleaning up our palm trees. Even cleaning up some sloppy work from when they were done in the past. I'd highly recommend Jose

I had a dead tree in my backyard that needed removal, but had been waiting for a year or so to get it removed because the cost seemed prohibitive. A friend of a friend recommended Leaf It To Us, and I called for an estimate. The owner,Jose, came over on a Friday, gave me a price less than I had been quoted by a different company a year before, and said his crew could come by the next week to do the job.
He was professional, knowledgeable, and best of all, he didn't try to do the "hard sell." He gave me my estimate in writing (as well as estimates for two other stumps I potentially wanted removed
