Efrain was excellent! He was efficient, neat, safe and reasonably priced.

Efrain and his crew just finished a huge tree in our front yard. Huge project! Finished it quickly and did an amazing job. I am impressed. More than fair price too. He is very professional. He gets back to you quickly when you contact him; sometimes he can answer the call. Bonus: he speaks very good English so it is easy to work with him. Highly recommended. The first person I had scheduled flaked on me for 2 weeks so I called Efrain.
Price assessment: Great price

Efrain was excellent! He was efficient, neat, safe and reasonably priced. He trimmed a huge old tree that was encroaching over fence and neighbors wanted it gone, but I wanted to maintain shade the tree offered my house. He obviously knew his trade well because he successfully trimmed the tree giving us each what we wanted. The tree is still beautiful. Efrain also trimmed all the trees back from our house as well as our orange trees. I highly recommend him!

Efrain Tree Services did an outstanding job trimming 14 palm trees at my property. From the first phone call to the completion of the job, communication was excellent. Efrain was professional, responsive, and provided a very fair and reasonable price.
His crew arrived on time, worked efficiently, and treated my property with respect. They were organized, hardworking, and clearly experienced. Even with such a large job, they worked quickly while maintaining great attention to detail.
What really stood out was how clean they left everything when they were finished. The cleanup was excellent, and my yard looked better than ever. If you’re looking for a reliable tree service with fair pricing, great communication, and quality work, I highly recommend Efrain Tree Services.

We had such a great experience with Efrain! He was professional from start to finish, showed up on time, and got the job done quickly without cutting corners. Our yard looks so much cleaner and well taken care of it honestly made a huge difference.
He’s easy to communicate with, very respectful, and clearly takes pride in his work. If you’re looking for someone reliable and efficient for landscaping, I would definitely recommend Efrain. We’ll be using him again!
