I recently met with Sotil Tree Service after some recent storm damage. I later used them to remove and grind the stumps to two large diseased maple trees. I found Rick to be prompt, reliable, and straight forward. His crew were equally prompt and courteous.

This will be a unique review. Sotil Tree Service was working across the street from my house. I had a pile of branches -- small and large -- that I needed to get rid of. I thought this was a unique opportunity to get rid of it. So I walked across the street and asked the workers if I could pay them to dispose of it using their equipment. They said sure. Halfway through bringing it across the street the owner had his guys come and HELP me bring it to him. When I tried to pay he refused. I then had an opportunity to talk to him about his business, and we got into some of the philanthropic work that he does. My family watched the work that he did for our neighbors and I could attest that it was quality with care for the property and safety for others (he made sure my son was far away from the work). I would say based on everything that I saw and that they did for me I would hands down choose them for any and all tree needs should I require them. Thank you again!

Rick the owner is the best! He came to the house looked at the trees and confirmed that they were not healthy and needed to come down. We just moved into the house and need to get a fence for our dog so really wanted the trees down soon. Rick and his crew came on a Saturday and did a fantastic job! Look no further for any help with your trees ! Thank You Eileen Castellanos very happy customer

I called Sotil Tree service to look into getting a quote and Rick, the owner, came over that night to walk the property, discuss the plans, and handed me an estimate. Our property needed quite the overhaul with multiple large trees removed and trimmed, bushes removed and trimmed, old stumps ground up, and extensive removal of leaves and debris. Rick came the very next week with his entire crew and finished the job in 3 days. He was extremely communicative and made sure we were happy with everything they were doing throughout the course of the 3 days. He and his crew were professional and courteous and I can not thank them enough for making this large project seem so straightforward and seamless. I will definitely be doing business with Rick again, and highly recommend others to do the same. Thanks again Rick!

We had such a good experience with Rick Sotil and his crew last fall (massive job taking out dangerous dead trees in tight spaces) that we asked him if he could help create two new spaces -- an area of raised garden beds and an area for training our dogs in agility on compressed mulch. I appreciate their hard work, their sophisticated machines, and the ease of communication with all of the crew. They did wonderful work creating two new functional spaces. They milled beams for raised beds, ordered quantities of high quality garden soil, built on site, surrounded with bark mulch, and built a set of steps. Now that we may have had our final frost of the year, we can look forward to summer vegetables and flowers in the garden.

Last week I had Rick pick out a sugar maple for us and previously a crimson maple that he planted in late November of last year. Rick picks out great stock in respect to what we are looking to have planted. He uses a couple of his people from his cutting/trimming team so we get the same nice and friendly people to do the planting. We ended up with the same great job done for planting that I have come to expect from him when he has done cutting/trimming for us. A very satisfactory outcome and great looking new trees to watch grow.

So impressed with Rick Sotil and his team. In less than five hours they removed the 80 foot tree along with other trees and the surrounding growth. They arrived on time with the huge crane, and all sorts of equipment, and immediately went to work. The team was extremely respectful of the yard and its surroundings. Rick has an amazing knowledgeable approach on how to handle this difficult job, and truly the service you want to choose to get the job done correctly. Many thanks to the Sotil team!

Wow! First time I have contracted for tree services and so glad I called Rick Sotil. Rick was very polite and professional and his crew was a great team to watch as they worked together very efficiently and safely to fell 5 trees. Their use of a crane, bucket truck, bucket loader, large chipper, saws and hand tools was quite expert in taking down trees that were growing over the roof of our house and one poplar about 115 feet tall that would cause significant damage if it were to fall during a storm. All of this work in one day with no damage, a yard left cleaner than before, and many logs stacked where I wanted them, bucked and ready to cut for firewood and lumber. It was especially impressive to watch the delimbing process aloft, with branches dropped safely below in a controlled manner where suitable on the smaller trees and lowered by crane from the tallest trees. Down the road a bit there will be other trees to take down and I will not hesitate to call Sotil Tree Service back again for that work. Thank you Rick and crew.

I called Sotil tree service, that evening Rick the owner called me back he came out to quote me for removing about 35 trees he mark the area gave me a quote and told me it would be about three weeks before the job was d could be done. I contacted another tree service company they never called me back with a quote but because of Rick's professionalism I signed the quote. Rick was able to come out two weeks later. What impresses me the most is that for the three days Rick and crew were out everything was cleaned up at the end of the day. Everything was done to protect my property all work was done in a professional manor. It was an absolute pleasure to work with a company who truly cared about the job at hand and property. Hats off to Rick and he's crew. Would I hire Sotil tree service again with out a doubt would.

Rick and his team do excellent work! We have hired them twice over the past few years for tree removal, pruning, and stump grinding. Both times, we have been extremely pleased with the work they have done. Rick is friendly, responsive and easy to work with. He was able to schedule us quickly and even did some extra tree pruning that wasn’t part of the original bid. Highly recommended!

Great experience. When large tree in our yard fell, we were faced with an extremely problematic situation which impacted us and our neighbors. Sotll tree service understood the criticality and got to work that evening to clear the hazardous fallout. They then worked with us to come back at a later time to take down another tree and address other non critical issues. All at reasonable cost.

Rick Sotil and his professional crew just finished removing our 60+ year old maple tree. We were very impressed with the ease and speed that the tree was removed in spite of the tree being close to the power lines. The clean up was meticulously done and his crew was very courteous and professional. I highly recommend this tree removal service and give them an A++

Ric Sotil and his crew did an extraordinary job for us, removing fallen trunks, branches and brush and taking out dead trees. The quality of their work is extraordinary, their price very fair and their responsiveness without equal. Due to an unforeseen cancellation, our your was completely transformed less than 24 hours after Ric first came to see the project. Thank you!

I am a long-term customer of Sotil Tree Service. They are extremely competent and caring about what they do and deliver a good job for a fair price. Over the years, no matter if it is a relatively small job or something much bigger, we received the same excellent outcome. And besides that, they are just great people to work with. That is why we keep going back to them for tree work.

Excellent service! He really knows his stuff. Came and gave me an assessment on the health of a tree that I was worried about. Also took down a large pine tree that was rotting. I called him on Friday, he came out for the estimate on Saturday and the trees were taken down on Tuesday (Monday was a holiday). The yard looks great- better than when I left in the morning. Thanks Sotil Tree Service!

We had a tree come down on our fence during the recent 12/23/22 storm. The Sotil Tree Service came within an hour of our phone call. Vlad cut up the tree and got it off our fence. He helped us repair our fence even though that Sounds wasn’t in our contract. Vlad saved the day! We have 2rescue dogs and really needed our fence repaired. Thank you.

I had an old birch tree and one of the limbs dropped- on my power line. Called Soteil and Rick came out within an hour to remove the branch. So when I decided to take the tree down I hired Soteil. They got the job done, cleaned up after and at a reasonable price. Highly recommend

Thank you Sotil Tree Service - outstanding job! Prompt service and price was very fair, worker's very knowledgeable, polite and professional. First day I had 13 stumps ground, then topsoil put down and the area seeded. Next day they removed two large maple trees using a crane truck. Impeccable clean up after both jobs. A week later I had Rick and his crew back to remove a large area of invasive bittersweet and autumn olive, as well as the big cedar trees that had been strangled and killed by the invasive vines. Amazing clean up of the entire area. A week later they came back out to remove 12 distressed maple trees between my fence and the roadway. Once again the service was outstanding, with the same great cleanup. I am very pleased with Rick Sotiel and his entire crew - good workers, good people. I highly recommend them.

Rick and his crew did a great job at our house when we needed 5 large trees removed. They arrived when they said they would, were extremely professional, and the job was completed in short order. The trees were in a difficult location very near our house, but with their crane and skills, we never felt the least bit nervous at the work they did. They took care of everything, including coordinating with the electric company to de-energize our wires so that they could work safely. We would highly recommend them to anyone needing tree work.
