Cordova's Tree Service was awesome! We were having problems with dead/dry branches falling all summer. Plus, we have two huge/old Chinese Pistachio trees that had not been trimmed for 3 years. We called Cordova's to see if they could help us out. They were out the next day to give us a quote and a few days later…

We have now used Cordovas Tree Service several times and have found Roy and his crew to be knowledgeable and professional whether trimming our many large trees or safely removing some close to the house. Their prices are very reasonable and are quick to give an estimate and get work scheduled. Cordovas will be the company we call for tree services from now on. Pam & Bob in Clovis
