Boyd’s Tree Service was one of the highly rated companies recommended by Bay Area Consumers’ Checkbook for quality. ChatGPT also helped me compare several candidates, identify questions that needed clarification, and step by step narrow down the options before I made my final decision. I feel very fortunate that Mike Boyd was the fastest to respond, meet with me, provide a written estimate, and show valid proof of workers’ compensation and liability insurance. His price was also the most attractive among the competitors. A three-person crew worked at my home for two days. Julio, though small in build, was extremely capable and efficient. He climbed up and down, moved quickly and confidently through the branches, and trimmed the limbs with skill, precision, and speed. The other two crew members were quiet but hardworking, continuously cleaning up and removing the cut branches and leaves so the ground stayed neat throughout the job. One thing that stood out was that Boyd’s large truck is equipped with a lift, which allowed them to trim the two tall trees in my front yard much more thoroughly and beautifully than previous tree workers had ever done. The trees in my yard were very tall and dense. Many branches had grown over the roofline and extended along the fences into the neighboring properties on both sides and behind my house. They were blocking the blue sky, sunlight, and natural brightness around my home. The trimming was important not only for fire safety, but also to restore a more open, comfortable, and bright living environment. I only needed to give Julio simple instructions, and the final result exceeded my expectations. My three neighboring households were also very pleased with the outcome. Everyone was happy. I am extremely satisfied with Boyd’s Tree Service and highly recommend them. I will definitely use Boyd’s Tree Service again for future tree work.

Mike, the owner came to give me an estimate Was $400 less than the last estimate I got. The tree trimmer came with a cherry picker. The trees came out better than I was expecting. My neighbors all made comments on how nice the tree looks and one of them is going to get an estimate from Mike.

They were able to come out on very short notice (like the next day). They did it all, from pruning the trees, to pulling the brush which had died, and then cleaned it all up. They even did it in the rain. This company was a rare find. I recommend them whole heartedly.
