Have a tree or hedge that needs trimming or brought back to life? If you do, I highly recommend arborist Roy Schwartz Tree Service. Roy has cared for my backyard foliage for more than a decade. That includes trimming and caring for a humongous Eugenia hedge, and two Melaleuca trees. Roy’s prices are competitive and fair, his team arrives on time as promised and does an amazing job. Cleanup is exemplary. The yard looks great after Roy‘s work. Couldn’t ask for more.

Pretty shocked by all the 5 star reviews. Armstrong recommended Roy to me for help with a few trees and some other plant questions. He arrived 20 minutes late with no explanation, no apology, and was pretty blasé about it. Then we chatted for 40 mins. I found better information online to be frank. He may be knowledgeable to someone, but he seemed spacy and lost during our entire conversation. Then he quoted me $1000 to lop a handful of branches and do some minor tree shaping on another visit. I think it all could have been done in a total of 30 minutes. He didn't even have the awareness that he should have reduced his $250 consult fee for the conspicuous awkwardness, him being unacceptably late, etc. I found no value at all in this interaction. A HUGE letdown. Beware.

I was told my ornamental pear tree was unsalvagable. I sick and at least 50 years old. Roy came out and took alook at it and though he couldn't promise anything he thought he could save it. year and ahalf later and a few dollars I have a beautiful blossuming pear tree and the leaves are a wonderful bright green. Thanks Roy. worth the price.
Up date on my sick pear tree. It 2025 and Roy came to trim and feed my tree. This spring it blossumed beautiful white and the leaves are a deep green again. My tree has a new life thanks to Roy.

What an outstanding find of Roy Schwartz who happened to be working on our street. His gorgeous truck rig is a giveaway to an amazing professional with decades of experience and training as an ISA Certified Arborist. The pride of our yard is a 50+ year old Hass avocado tree that is in declining health and production of fruit. Roy immediately identified major mite and fungi infections as well as problems with bark and root health. Our old girl is on the road to recovery now with several topical treatments, specialized feedings tailored to the tree and future trimming plans. He's also treating our Citrus and decorative yrees. And, if you pay attention to Roy, you'll receive an outstanding education! If you need a tree trimmer, there are hundreds to choose from. We have in the past with some really bad results. If you need an Arborist and Surgeon with a wealth of knowledge that is worth every cent he charges, Roy is definitely your professional. He is also one hell of a nice man and a pleasure to have in our home. His young son and helper too. Well done!!

We hired Roy to remove five 40' Italian Cypress trees. He had to deal with our pool on one side and an alley with power lines and our service drop on the other side. He came prepared with a tarp to cover the pool and plywood to protect our concrete. He was very skilled at maneuvering his bucket truck, avoiding the power lines, cutting off sections at a time and lowering them in the bucket to avoid them crashing to the ground. His crew did a great job cleaning up the debris. We were very impressed with the whole process and his respect for our property. He was also very professional, knowledgeable, easy to work with and attentive to our concerns about the process. His price was at the higher end but it was well worth it. We highly recommend him.
Thank you Roy.
