Home Services reviews in San Marcos, California

Mom wanted a patio table with chairs and a small umbrella to put in our carport for outdoor dining and simple pleasure. So, off to Walmart I went. Like Amazon, I have always been able to find what I want there. I saw a set there three weeks ago on sale, hoping it was still available.

A young man had already just clocked out for the day, but helped me find the one I wanted. The ones with umbrellas were out of stock, but a glass top table with four sturdy chairs for $68 is a steal! He wanted to help me get it to my truck, but when I heard him say he’d already clocked out, I told him that was not a good idea in case he injured himself, and to run free. I asked the girl at checkout to get me two strong guys to lift that out to and into my truck. Regardless of the reason for delayed action, after waiting just over 15 minutes I asked for the manager, who appeared out of breath and ready to help make me a happy customer.

The manager on shift 7/20/2025 deserves her props for going above and beyond to make sure I not only had two strong guys to assist, but she made sure I was able to purchase the umbrella that compliments our new patio table set as well. I was willing to take the one on demo, and she said yes. She knew what good customer service looks like, and turned around and provided EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE!! Kudos to her.

I do a lot of shopping at this particular Walmart due to the good customer service, huge parking lot, great prices, convenience of various departments, and a long history of satisfaction. When I finally ran into a minor bump in the road, management stepped in and did the right thing. I am very grateful and hope that she received the recognition she deserves. Unfortunates, I failed to catch her name. But, 7/21/25 she shined!

Love it

Vast Selection of All Things Garden

Great plant selection 😁

This place is seasonal and I think you would only go here to get a pumpkin at Halloween or a tree for Christmas if you were really depressed.

they have so many cool different plants and I love the indoor plants!

Had everything I needed much easier to find someone to help you than the home Depot and a large selection of vegetable plants as well as flowers and trees

What a great selection, there is so much to see, thoughts of a beautiful garden and exotic plants will transport you to an imaginary place...
Friendly service too! Can't wait to go back!

After calling many places and asking for a specific item, when I called them, they said they had it. I can usually count on them to have what I want, but I no longer live nearby, so it's not now my go-to. Guess I just need to start going back there again.

Trevor and his team are the best! While properly pruning and trimming our trees, they created sculptures of artistry from the trunks and branches. I highly recommend them.

Trevor and his team are awesome! Professional, courteous and prompt in their service. They cut down two palm trees for me. They both had been dying and I had to unfortunately cut them down.
Thanks Trevor and Team!

I’ve worked with several tree companies and individuals over the years, but The Branch is the only one that’s earned my repeat business. I’ve been working with them for many years now, and they consistently provide excellent, professional service. They’ve done trimming, removals, and stump grinding for me, always with great care and attention to detail. I have several unusual, mature trees that I really care about, and I fully trust Trevor and his team to keep them healthy and looking great. If you’re looking for true experts who take pride in their work, I highly recommend The Branch.

Trevor was great. Trimmed a very tall Palm tree of mine. Showed up on time and got the job done. Super affordable and time efficient. He’s also very knowledgeable about his craft. 100% recommended

Best tree management company out there in San Diego! I called them after seeing them do a great job with my neighbor’s similar palm tree pruning job. The crew is super responsive, friendly and takes good care of your trees and yard. I’ll be a regular when my trees need maintenance!

Unfortunately I had to remove a couple of trees and contacted The Branch. Trevor was fast to respond and very competitive priced. He showed up with his team and worked extremely fast and effective. The results were fantastic! He even gave me some advice on other trees on the property and I’ll definitely use them again. Thank you for making the process easy.

Easy communication with owner and his son. Timely responses, showed up on time and finished the work including cleanup. Trees removed very close to pool and wall which were both very impressively avoided. Overall very happy with the work compared to other tree removal services we have used previously, would absolutely recommend them to anyone we know and will work with them again in the future for landscaping and any further tree removal.

We’ve been using The Branch for our 7 queen palms since November 2018, and after 7 years of service I can honestly say they are the best.

Before that, I spent the first 4 years in our home climbing ladders with a telescoping trimmer, putting in a lot of sweat and grit (and a little danger) to keep the palms looking nice. A friend referred me to The Branch, and I’ve never looked back.

Their crew is outstanding — friendly, professional, great with families, and truly a joy to have around. My kids (and even our dog, though she might pretend otherwise!) love watching them work. Scheduling is always quick and easy: I’ll email for a time, and more often than not The Branch will call to offer me an even earlier appointment, which makes life so much easier.

Most importantly, the results are stunning. The trees look exquisite every single time, and they stay that way for seasons. It’s been a true pleasure partnering with The Branch all these years, and we look forward to many more.

Thank you, The Branch — we appreciate you!

Trevor at The Branch provided one of the 4 estimates I received. His estimate was in the middle of the cost estimates, but he clearly was more knowledgeable about trees and tree surgery. His certified arborist training was evident, compared to the other companies.
Trevor and his crew were punctual, completed the job as he predicted, cleaned the area when the job was done, and the trees look great.
We will use his services in the future.

Trevor and his team were fantastic! I needed some palm and Jacaranda trees trimmed, and they did a great job—really fast, too. My backyard was left in perfect condition. Trevor also gave me some excellent recommendations on the health of my plants and watering. I highly recommend this company!

I've been working with Trevor and his team for a few years now and we've only had an excellent experience. Trevor takes his time to explain any of the necessary details, answer questions, and follow-up. He and his team have done an excellent job maintaining our ~100 ficus trees, 10 robellinis, 12 tall queen palms and 4 large bird of paradise. A great resource to help maintain their overall health, and if he can't readily address an issue, he's very helpful with referrals. An overall fantastic experience. Highly recommend.

The Branch people always do a fantastic job at trimming and shaping my pine tree. We have used them for over 20 years. They are reliable, hard workers and friendly.
