Rod's Tree Service
Rick and his crew are the best! They came over exactly when they said they would and removed the tree i needed gone in no time! Everything was smooth, and price was fair. I'd highly recommend them to anybody! I hired Rods Tree Service to remove a couple trees at my house, as well as some overall trimming of all my trees.

They did a fantastic job and we couldnt be happier. Rick, Alex and the crew were all very friendly! We are a small family business that has been servicing South Orange County since 1964. Arborists are knowledgeable about the needs of trees and are trained and equipped to provide proper care. Hiring an arborist is a decision that should not be taken lightly.
Services
Our work is in accordance with ISA (International Society of Arboriculture) practices for tree pruning. We have two certified Arborists on staff, as well as a Qualified Tree Risk Assessor. We have been serving residential, commercial, and municipal customers for over 55+ years. Open Monday through Thursday between 8:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., we are happy to provide you with an appointment for our tree trimming or removal services.
Like any other aspect of your landscaping, trees require routine maintenance and care. However, climbing into a tree to trim branches of any shape or size can be dangerous. Rod's Tree Service would be honored to handle all your tree trimming needs, for both safety and aesthetic appeal.
There are many reasons for tree removal. For instance, trees can be dying, dead or diseased, causing them to be damaged beyond repair. Additionally, the wrong species can be planted in the wrong location. Removal allows for peace of mind that this tree will not break or fall on your house, as well as prevent potential liability.
In emergency situations when trees fall over you can always rely on Rod's Tree Service to be there for you in your time of need. We provide 24/7 emergency services in any weather conditions at any time of the day. Arborists are knowledgeable about the needs of trees and are trained and equipped to provide proper care.
Rod's Tree Service Inc. has adequate knowledge of tree planting that we can coordinate to replace any tree that is removed with a new tree in its place. Properly planted trees add curb appeal and make your home more welcoming. Arborists are knowledgeable about the needs of trees and are trained and equipped to provide proper care.

They called Friday afternoon to say they would arrive at 7:30 Monday and be done by 4:30. I could have set my watch by them. They are all true pros. They all know their jobs and immediately got to work. Excellent trimming. Excellent cleanup. They followed directions quickly and exactly. Money well spent.

Rod's Tree Service hit another home run!

This is THE ONLY tree service I will ever use. The communication is clear, concise and thorough! They provide superior service at a decent price.

When I discussed what I wanted done, I was specific as too what exactly how I wanted it and they came through with exactly that!

Matt was my contact person who confirmed what I had discussed over the phone with the scheduling person in the office. He knew exactly what I wanted.

Today Chris and Luis joined Matt's team. Chris was very friendly double checking throughout the job as it was being done

When they trimmed our palm trees, the palm fronds fell on our roof and broke 40 tiles. It cost us $1500 to repair the tiles. Rod's tree service denied they did broke our tiles but it was very evident that all the broken tiles were under the palm trees. The roof was fully repaired and inspected a year ago and no one was on the roof since the inspection . The roof damage was verified by a respectable roofing company.

What a great service..very prompt, very reasonable pricing, super professional crew members, neat, wonderful clean up. I couldn't ask for more. The City of San Clemente lost a great contractor when they didn't keep this service on the payroll. The Garcia family are all winners.

Had several plants/trees removed today, mostly for an upcoming plumbing fix. These guys are the BEST. They were courteous and respectful. I was totally sad and traumatized that my beloved sago palms had to be killed to replace pipes. They were kind and generous. I would not only hire them again but I’d hire them into my own business if I could. Thank you for your support!!

Rick the owner has an unbelievable breadth of knowledge of trees, shrubs, soil and everything else you might want to know about what's going on in your yard. But more importantly - he's a great all-around guy and member of the community. He came over my home and answered questions about what trees I should buy and why, what plants attract hummingbirds, the sunlight requirements of various plants, etc. He never tried to sell me anything or make me feel guilty about taking his time. He's earned my loyalty for life. Thank you Rick.

Gave me a refferal for somebody better suited to hopefully help me with my tree problem (termites) rather than ignoring my message. Thank you

Rick came to give an estimate on time and was very knowledgeable about the kind of trees we have and how they should be trimmed. We came to an agreement on price that seemed very reasonable to me. We agreed on a date within a week. He and his crew showed up right on time (actually a little early, but he texted to let me know) and did a great job topping and trimming our trees. Clean up was good, they worked very fast and efficiently and were very friendly. I was very happy with their work and would highly recommend them. I would not hesitate to hire them again.

My giant 60 year old tree fell today and Rod's tree service came and removed the entire thing in about 2 hours. I highly recommend them as they were clean and efficient and had the most up to date equipment to get the job done. Thanks for the help as it was a pleasure meeting you guys.

Rick and Matt of Rod's Tree Service were the best. They did great work, on time and cleaned-up as if they hadn't even been here. The best part of their service is the great attitude they both had and their willingness to get things right the way you would like them to be. They do the work as if they lived there themselves---------------and you don't always get that kind of care these days. Their grandfather should be proud of them for carrying on what he started so many years ago in such a great manner.

Thanks for work well done------------what an improvement------you did a great

We have used the same tree trimming company
for several years and they finally retired. I thought it was going to be a daunting task to find a company
to take over our tree maintenance but after getting a few bids, it was easy to make a decision. Rod's came
Out today and cut our palms, rubber and pine tree back. They were on time, professional, kind and all around awesome!. We are so happy happy and appreciative!

I hired these guys to remove a tree, grind the stump and trim some other trees. Rick, who took over the family business, gave me the best quote of the several tree services I contacted. He and his crew arrived on time, did the work promptly and professionally, and did a great job cleaning up. Nice guys too. I'll definitely call them the next time I need tree work. Highly recommended!

We had Rod's Tree Service trim our trees and shrubs for the first time last week. They did an outstanding job. Rick (who has taken over the business from his grandfather, Rod) is a complete professional, as is his crew. They really know what they're doing and make sure that the job they do is what we want. I cannot say enough how pleased we were with the work they did. So glad we don't have to look any further to find quality service.

We watched the professionals at Rod's Tree service remove and install new banners today on Camino Real. The team was professional and efficient at removing and hanging the new banners in record time. They even told us what time to come so we could witness the first Bahá'i Faith banner to be hung in San Clemente! Wow! It was an epic way to kick off the week!

Rick, Alex, and the crew were all very friendly and a pleasure to work with. They also did what they said they were going to do in terms of sending the estimate when planned, showing up on time, and of course the job itself was executed exactly as planned. It's very refreshing working with contractors that are professional. They made the whole process easy, and we look forward to hiring them again

Thanks to Rod and his team for retrieving my drone stuck in a 50ft palm tree at local park. Very responsive and quick to coordinate the rescue. If run into to trouble like I had recommend you call Rod!
