Although they were removing a tree on property next door to my home, I was paying 1/3 of the bill. Only the homeowner was treated as a customer. Near the end of the job, their crane dropped a very large section of the tree into my yard, destroying a small tree and other vegetation (100% crane operator error). The man on the saw was very aware of the damage and responded positively when asked if he would report the incident to the crew leader. There was no attempt by the crew to access my yard to clean cuttings from the tree removal or to assess the damage to my plantings. I had to hire someone to haul the trash they dropped into my yard. I paid my portion of the bill without hesitation, expecting to hear from their supervisor before they pulled out. I understand that “stuff happens” and all they needed to do was acknowledge the damage. Two minutes of the supervisors time would have made this a positive review. Beware of Greater Bay Area Tree and Crane Service.

Perfect experience working with Jim and the GBA Tree team. Showed up on time, worked quick, and cleaned up. Will use again.

Got 2 quotes and they were the better of the 2, which I thought would happened since I’ve used them a couple times before. Service was scheduled for 9 am Friday and they actually showed up ahead of time. Did excellent work and very careful attention to the surrounding not to damage anything. Even trimmed a few extra branches by the house for no additional charge after removing the 4 trees that we contracted. Will continue to use this company. Jim Schimmoller is awesome to deal with. Ground all the stumps down and then cleaned up very well even blew off my driveway which had nothing to do with the trees in my yard. Super satisfied and I highly recommend this company!

From top to bottom they were incredible! They picked up the call on the first ring and were able to come out and give a quote the same day. Very fair price for the work that was needed. They were flexible in scheduling when to do the service and once they got here the crew was amazing! We had a massive sea grape and huge oaks. They were extremely thoughtful to make sure we were getting what we wanted throughout the job. They finished the job in a couple of hours and hauled everything away. Very professional operation which is somewhat hard to come by for tree trimming. For anyone looking for tree trimming these are the people to call in St. Pete!
