Reviews of local pros in West Orange, New Jersey

We had Tico’s out to remove a smallish but dying tree on the property as well as removing some overhead hanging branches that were very close to the house and then removing some very invasive ivy on a larger tree.

The team was on time and were very communicative throughout the process and cleaned up incredibly fast after their work was done. Same can be said for the stump removal on the small tree.

Cannot recommend enough.

They gave us the best price, and had good reviews. So we chose them. Maria consistently responded to phone calls and messages, the tree trimmers arrived on the day they said they would (earlier than expected, but it worked for us). They seemed knowledgeable and worked efficiently.

Ticos did a fantastic job for me. I had four estimates and felt comfortable using Ticos. They were professional and cleaned up thoroughly would highly recommend them.

I had a great experience with Ticos Tree Service. The office staff, workers and the owner were very friendly, timely and knowledgeable. Overall, I would highly recommend them for anyone who is looking for tree service work.

We have used Tico's three times this year, all with the same processional results. The first was planned tree removal on our property. The second was to prune the tops of some tall trees and the last was emergency tree removal after a storm. Extremely responsive and excellent work.

We had an old, large tree removed from our backyard done by them today. For context, the tree had been dying for years now and branches often fell. The grass around the tree was patchy, and the fencing had been damaged due to years of branches falling on it. This led us to seeking out a tree cutting service and Thank God it was Ticos Tree Service!

The whole process was great. Alfredo came for a quote about two weeks ago and we had gotten a great price for the service. He was very nice. Maria answered our calls and concerns very well and kept us informed about everything. They also let us know how to go about getting the permit to get the tree removed. After the permit was sorted out, they promptly scheduled a date and time for the service. On the day of the service, Henry and the team arrived on time (actually even early!) and safely cut the tree down to its stump and took all the wood away. We had scheduled them to remove the stump along with its roots as well. The stumps were removed very nicely. Henry was very friendly, answered our questions, and gave us tips on what to do to have grass grow on that land. The tree cutting and stump removal took about four hours, which we were very happy with.

We highly recommend Ticos Tree Service! Everyone we interacted with was humble and kind. They did everything professionally and we had no damage to any of our land and fences. The prices were also good. Thank you to everyone at Ticos Tree Service.

We had to remove a giant locust tree from a tricky area of our yard. Ticos Tree Service were prompt and professional, careful with the other trees and plantings, both in our yard and our neighbors' (this tree was HUGE). When they finished, except for the bigger sky in our yard, you wouldn't know anyone had been there. Highly recommend!

Had to clean up a fallen tree and a dead tree. Maria and team were great! Team arrived on time and finished the job in a clean manner. They are reasonably priced and professional.

Thanks Ticos Tree Service!

Had a good experience with Tico's tree service. Quotation process was detailed, price was not the lowest but competitive. Coroidnation of work was executed really well, kudos to Maria for being so meticulouos. Work was done as qutoed and planned. Everything was cleaned up.

Exceptional service. Ticos went above and beyond. We had a tricky tree removal that required access from a neighbor's yard, across a small river. Ticos went out of their way to talk to the neighbor to explain the job when they came out for an estimate. Ticos offered a good price and were easy to work with, too. I highly recommend Ticos.

We had Tico's take down 3 trees from an invasive species in our back yard. They were friendly, knowledgeable, flexible with our special requests, like leaving a trunk for birds on one tree, and gave us a reasonable price. Would use them again.

This crew was excellent. They did everything in four hours. Removed giant dead trees and cut back all the healthy trees. They took off a few low branches that were not on the contract. Maria in the office was pleasant to deal with and texting services made things so much easier. I had three estimates and met with four tree experts. I liked this company the best. They also have fair pricing.

We had Tico Tree Service remove a tree blown over in a storm. They also removed two other trees that also unfortunately had to be removed.
They were prompt and professional. They did an amazing job in removing these large trees and stumps.
In addition to being fast and courteous they left the area involved immaculately clean.
I recommend their services without reservation

I stumbled upon Ticos Tree Experts as I was looking for an arborist to trim some mulberry trees and remove a dying red cedar in my yard. Alfredo came onsite to assess the situation, providing excellent guidance and how to proceed with all the trees we had. Pricing was reasonable and we're in the range we expected to pay, even less expensive than some other competitors.

Once we agreed on our next steps, Alfredo's crew came onsite and did an exceptional job, including tree pruning and stump grinding. They were punctual, professional, and respectful, cleaning up our yard as if they were never there.

A special shout out to Maria who was able to coordinate everything, from scheduling the crew to do the work, to providing the appropriate information for our town permit, and following up during the work being done to make sure everything was going smoothly.

All in all, I would use Ticos Tree expert services again and would recommend anyone to use them if they need fast and professional arborist services.

Awesome job by the crew today! They really went above and beyond to accommodate us, were quick, professional and did a great clean up job after. Their office staff were also very attentive and communicated really well from the initial consultation to booking the job in. I’ll be using them again if needed.

We had a dead ash at the back of our property and a large oak that was damaging our garage. The oak was healthy, so we’re getting the wood milled for slabs etc. and the crew today were able to cut the logs as requested and leave them exactly where we asked. Really appreciate their work, and I’m sure you would too.

Good price, and was very careful to not damage my garden and garden lights. A crew of 5 arrived early, done by noon. Cleaned up yard… just so very happy with their work.

I spent many months getting estimates to remove 4 trees (filled with lantern flies) along the edge of my backyard property and I was really anxious about this project because there was no way to bring a truck through my yard, the trees were covered in thick ivy, which was entangled in the side neighbor's fence, and overall, the space was very tight.

I called at least 4 companies for estimates. Last April, when Alfredo came by to check out the project, I was immediately impressed by his tree knowledge. The price was very reasonable for the amount of work and difficulty of the job, which would involve climbing to remove the trees, even if they able to use the truck..

On the day of the work, the work supervisor and I went back in the yard to see if there was any option of bringing the truck in. Despite trying, I hadn't been able to contact the neighbor behind my house to ask if we could bring the truck through their property. To my surprise, we noticed the neighbors outside working in their garden. Without my having to ask, the supervisor said he'd come with me to ask and explain what they would do to ensure the grass would not be damaged. The neighbors were happy to help and simply asked if the workers could remove some overhanging branches on the other side of their property, which the supervisor readily agreed to.

The supervisor was so kind and patient and completely calm. He never got frustrated or impatient. He took it all in stride, as simply part of the job. This project, which I had dreaded for so long, ended up being a beautiful, cooperative, zero stress day. I think anyone who's ever had work done around their house can rarely report such a good experience, but in the case, I was so struck by how smoothly everything went - it was such an exceptional experience! I owe it all to not only the professionalism of this entire outfit, but the real human kindness shown throughout the process.

My sincere thanks to Alfredo, Maria, and all the workers - it really meant a lot to me.

Alfredo was great at the estimate pointing out the technical side of tree care and maintenance. I felt the price was fair and the quality of the work was excellent. The crew was on time, we were both out and they got to work unprompted or supervised and did a great quick job. We had a 30 ft tree removed along with a smaller tree and some trimming. The guys cleaned up great afterwards as well

Alfredo and Tico’s removed and pruned several of our trees in August and were great. Everyone throughout the entire process was punctual, professional, and friendly. The recommendation we got from Alfredo was reasonable (some companies simply advised us to cut everything down instead of saving the healthy trees) and Tico’s was one of the more affordable options. Their office associates were also very helpful in providing the right information to obtain a permit. We will definitely be going back to Tico’s for any future tree needs!

We had a tree removal with stump grinding done. The contractor and his staff were very professional, friendly, and punctual.

The work quality and cleanup exceeded my expectations and the price was fair. I highly recommend the services of Tico’s Tree Service.

Tico's came through in a clutch, removing a tree with dead roots that was leaning over my house. They were quick, thorough and AFFORDABLE. The did a great job, taking the tree down in excellent time and removing all traces of the tree. My house is surrounded by trees, so they will be my go-to service every time.
