Had them cut down an oak tree in my backyard. Very efficient crew. They were very friendly and cleaned up nicely after they completed the job. I would highly recommend them for tree services. Very reasonable prices as well

We have worked with Ray Graham for many years and I don't know why I didn't previously post a review. I should have. Our whole neighborhood has even worked together to identify multiple trees at different people's houses and hired Graham's Tree Service to do them all at once for a discounted rate. Ray is super experienced, licensed, bonded, and insured. He has had the same crew for years and those guys really know what they're doing and clean up well after too.Today's events, however, are what caused me to finally give this long overdue review. At about 9 am today, another wet and windy day, a neighbor's giant old tree came crashing down (and uphill at an angle!). It crushed part of the the house next to ours and then landed on our house creating all kinds of damage.Ray and his guys and even their crane were on site in about an hour! That was before even PG&E got here to address the downed live power line!Once PG&E said it was OK, they had the tree sawed down and craned off our house and patched the holes in our roof. Then they quick moved to our neighbor's house.Ray even offered to deal directly with our respective insurance companies to be paid directly from them. Truly hassle free and I huge relief to our collective shock and stress. What a great guy and company!Update: Ray then stayed after the whole crew left to personally staple a tarp to prevent any further damage overnight. Above and beyond!

We just had a 70 foot redwood tree removed from our tiny yard in Oakland. The tree was a split leader monster that dropped big limbs whenever the wind blew.It was a difficult removal, in that the tree was inside a small fenced yard with no access, sandwiched between other trees and right on the fenceline.Graham quoted me a reasonable figure for the difficulty of the job. His crew removed it cleanly and efficiently, like a well orchestrated dance, masterfully manipulating a huge crane to lift each section of the tree out and chip it up into a waiting truck. they even dropped in a custom built stump grinder that accommodated itself to the tight space, and removed all trace of the tree.The friendly, skillful, no-messing-around crew made the whole difficult project seem painless and easy.It hurts to chop down a big tree, and it hurts to pay for it, but if it's got to be done, these guys are reasonable, professional and make you feel like they can do anything.
