This was the second time that we've used CalWest Tree Service for removing/trimming trees on our property and they were great! Showed up first thing in the morning with a full team to bust out removing 2 trees plus trim 2 others and were wrapped up leaving the place nice and clean by lunch time.

CalWedt did an excellent job for us at very reasonable price. They removed a large tree from our backyard and trimmed up a large tree in our front yard. They did all the work in 2 hours and left no mess behind. Everyone that was there was polite, respectful, professional and worked very hard. We were super impressed by this team and would highly recommend.
