Daniel Soto and his crew did an excellent job removing a massive, dying walnut tree from my backyard. I initially found Daniel because I was looking for an arborist (to assess the dying tree) that also performed tree removal services. Daniel was knowledgeable, responsive, and fast with providing a quotation. A few days before the job, someone came out to cone off the street and put up parking signage in preparation for the project day. On the day of the removal, they brought both a bucket truck and a crane. The crane allowed them to lift the massive trunk straight up safely over my fence and out of my yard, which meant no fence dismantling was required (other bidders stated they may need to). The pricing was super competitive and communication with Daniel throughout was great. They handled the stump grinding, cleaned up the yard perfectly, and did me an extra favor by moving the heavy pavers that had been hidden behind the tree to another neatly tucked-away spot in my yard. A highly professional crew and licensed arborist that I will hire again.
Daniel and his team removed an enormous ailing oak tree from my yard, and from start to finish it was a smooth experience. Daniel worked to provide me with a very competitive bid, and supplied the needed arborist report to get the city permit for the tree removal. He has a big crane that allowed his crew to remove all the big tree pieces from the yard without taking out part of my fence, and I was so happy that none of the surrounding plants were damaged at all. The crew did a great cleanup job and my yard was immaculate when they left. Daniel even returned at a later date to help my son cut up a couple big branch segments that we had saved for a woodworking project. All in all, very professional and I highly recommend.
Great experience with Daniel and his team. We had a long list of asks (stump grinding, stump removal, trimming and pruning) and the owner came out, gave a fair and honest quote, and his team handled everything efficiently and cleaned up well. Kind, professional, and a great price. Highly recommend.
Since finding DSoto a few years ago, we have used him exclusively for large and small jobs. He has a cherry picker Dinis able to trim our tall trees. Daniel keeps a log of your trees for reference and is extremely knowledgeable. He has a long time crew who are fantastic and leave everything tidy.
Daniel & his team: Oscar, Julio, Alejandro, Pedro & Rudy did an excellent job professionally pruning & cutting our grove of redwood trees that were 160 feet high & needed major work. Upon meeting Daniel during the bidding process, his knowledge of trees & all the strict policies in Palo Alto was evident. He is an Arborist & learned the business from working as a young man with his father and taking over his family business. He has trained his workers, knows them & are all equipped for safety while climbing the trees and below making sure large limbs & branches are coming down without hurting anything or anyone below. I and my neighbors were very impressed with their teamwork, efficiency & their caring about their job and their clients. Their prices were competitive & very fair - but unlike other tree companies DSoto trees were the best I’ve ever worked with in my 37 years owning our home in Palo Alto. I highly recommend Daniel’s team. Thankfully, Terry & Mark/ Palo Alto, CA
