Your trees are an asset that if managed and maintained over time will add beauty and value to your property. Thoughtful and appropriate tree maintenance, conservative precision pruning, and when necessary, tree removal can all add to the longtime health and sustainability of the trees on your property.
Tree removal is sometimes necessary. When a tree is dead or determined to be hazardous, our trained staff can assess the best strategy for removal. Safety concerns, a tree's proximity to nearby utility lines, roads and structures, and individual tree structure are all factors that we consider when determining the best method for tree removal.
Creating a defensible space around your property and structures will dramatically improve your chances of safely surviving an unexpected wildfire. Creating a buffer-zone around your property and clearing it of trees, shrubs, and other flammable vegetation is the surest way to protect your investment.
When a tree falls on structures or vehicles the situation demands immediate attention. Nate's Tree Service offers 24-hour emergency tree service for our clients throughout the Mother Lode region.

Contracted through PG&E, they were responsible for removing branches and a large dead eucalyptus that threatened the lines. I was very impressed with their professionalism. Safety was their priority, which they followed all OSHA regulations. Their crew was very well trained using the equipment and cutting skills. They didn’t just do an excellent job cleaning up, but they also had to take down a fence and put it back up afterwards, doing a much better job than the fence was originally! What gives them a 5 star is when asked to make additional cuttings to help me out, they didn’t even hesitate

They said they'd remove 3 pines on our property. Communication has been poor. Suddenly showed up few days later with no notice. Took out 2 of the 3, and did a great job. Said 3rd required use of a crane, so couldn't do same day. That was a month ago and haven't heard from them. I call and leave messages, but no response. Poor customer relations under the PG&E program.

My wife and I own a cabin in the Cold Springs subdivision. On 9/30/3021 I went there and discovered Nate's Tree Service was working on our neighbor's property. They had used our property to access the neighbor's. They tore up our property and left a lot of debris (mostly tree branches and pine needles). They also killed small fir trees. When I asked them how they got permission to trespass on our property, they said they were working for PG&E and had an easement. They have an easement to access the property they are working on, not adjoining properties. They need the owner's permission. After threatening

Nates holds the contract to clear lines for PG&E. They came on our property against our express wishes, cut only the most valuable trees and removed them even though PG&E says that they will not take trees. They left a mess. When contacted about what they had done, they lied to us. We are currently pursuing legal/regulatory remedies against Nates. Do not use this DISHONEST company!

The crew did a great job and left my yard which had 2 big oaks down in it line nothing had happened. The crew works like a well oiled machine. Jacob, the foreman and climber was especially professional and took every precaution to be safe and expedient to make sure the job was done just as Troy had promised in his bid. You could not ask for a better guy to work with than Troy.

I would not recommend Nate's Tree service. They were hired by PG&E to cut down and trim some trees in our yard.
We were aware that the work was being done, but were surprised by the methods they used to cut the trees down and the mess they left in our yard and neighborhood street for several weeks after the job. Instead of cutting down our large pine trees in sections, they dropped 50' lengths, using two healthy trees to guide them down (which damaged the healthy trees).
I called Nate's customer service and they mentioned that they were super busy and had been sub-contacting

These guys were great! I called right at 7am when a tree was discovered blocking my drive. Nate Jr. was at my house with an estimate and helping hand less than 20 minutes later. When root rot was discovered in 3 of my trees, the crew took them down that day at a very reasonable price. To recap: great service, reasonable prices, and knowledgeable and efficient team.

After going back and forth for weeks trying to get another provider out to my cabin in Arnold to remove a tree that had died, I finally found Nate's Tree Service. Nate quickly returned my call and scheduled the tree removal. The team did a great job taking the tree down and cutting it into rounds that I can later chop. The price was also a fair deal less than the other provider too! I'll definitely be using Nate's Tree Service in the future whenever I need to have tree work completed.

Some time ago, I recommended Nates to an older friend of mine. While they were doing the tree work, my friends shed was damaged. While Nate accepted responsibility for the damages, three months later the repairs had not even begun. Out of my guilt for recommending Nates for the job, I fixed the shed myself and presented a bill (less than $100) to Nates. Much time has gone by and I still have yet to be repaid for a mistake that he admitted was their fault. When I called the office for reimbursement, I was treated like I was the one who had done something wrong. I have not recommended Nates since

I live in Forest Meadows and so there is always the HOA issue (permission, permit) to go through when doing anything on your home. When we asked for a bid from Nate's, they took care of everything. Being the preferred service for Forest Meadows helped, but I got the bid quickly, once accepted, the service was set and carried out quickly and cleanly. I don't think I would get this from anyone else - and I manage our companies properties in the Bay Area. I would recommend Nate's Tree Service to anyone.
