Emma Tree consultant told me that by digging down 20" and putting in a root barrier the house would be safe for at least 15 years. The price was painful but hearing that, I immediately said yes. Happy that the tree could stay too. About 5 months after the job was done, I had the deck replaced and under the slab of the deck AND the house were mature roots all running along the surface. These mature roots could be seen inches after this 20" "barrier" was dug. So, no..... the roots were not severed as I was told, and certainly the expensive barrier was not protecting anything. And.... I asked them to tell me where they came up with only going down 20" when ALL the articles I could find said a "minimum" of 30". They could not show me where 20" was sufficient in writing and I asked for the owner "Nestalie" to call me back twice and he refused to do so. No, offer to make things right. Unless I wanted to pay them another $550. Ah, no thanks. I'll use another arborist company. **★★★★★ — Paul, Dec. 2016** > The team was very conscientious. They completed the job in a timely manner and made certain that all debris was cleaned from my neighbor's yard before leaving. **Comment from Emma Tree Service:** > Thank you for a great review Paul. We do our best to perform excellent tree work and leave everything clean and beautiful. I'm glad we hit the mark for you! **★★★★ — Norma Medina, Dec. 2016** > They came in, went to work, cleaned up their mess (which is a big plus and shows they take pride in their work) and left. Awesome work guys! Thank you **Comment from Emma Tree Service:** > Norma, thank you for a glowing review. We do take pride in our work and I'm so glad you could see that! Thanks again! **★★★★★ — David Lewis, Nov. 2016** > I used EMMA Tree Service to remove a 60+ foot Juniper and a 50 foot Pine tree. > I dealt with Clint who was always on time and was the perfect gentleman. > More importantly, he was honest and the work happened exactly as advertised. > It is rare that hired work like this happens without glitches and problems. A tree limb was tossed that hit a fence and slightly damaged it. > The EMMA crew brought this to the attention of Clint who informed me about it. I wouldn't have noticed this until several days later. Clint offered compensation that was more than fair. > The tree removal service was very professionally done with skilled workers and great equipment. > I would not hesitate to use them again or recommend them. > David Lewis **Comment from Emma Tree Service:** > David, thank you so much for the glowing review. You were a pleasure to work with as well and I'm glad you were so pleased with the process and results. We work hard to ensure all of our clients have this kind of positive experience. Thank you again and please let me know if there's anything we can do for you in the future. > -Clint Davis **★★★★★ — User, Nov. 2016** > Great experience having two fifty-foot pines removed from the slope in my back yard. Clint showed up to make the estimate exactly on time, and was friendly and professional. When it came time for the actual work to be performed, everyone was again on time. The work was done quickly and professionally, and the cleanup was thorough. Great job at a reasonable price! **Comment from Emma Tree Service:** > Jay, thank you for such a great review. I'm glad we were able to make this project as easy and stress-free as possible for you. That's always our goal! Please let me know if we can be of service in the future. Thanks again! > -Clint Davis ## Selected projects - [Canary Island Date Palm Trimming - San Diego](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/canary-island-date-palm-trimming-san-diego-pj-vj~2276159) - Location: San Diego, CA - Photos: 1 - [Monterrey Pine Removal & Tree Planting - La Jolla, CA 92037](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/monterrey-pine-removal-and-tree-planting-la-jolla-ca-92037-pj-vj~2137190) - Location: La Jolla, CA - Photos: 13 - Description: We removed an 80' Monterrey Pine from a La Jolla, CA home.
