Learn MoreThree steps. No surprises.
Tell us about your tree - roughly how big, what's nearby, and what you're hoping to get done. We'll ask a few quick questions to understand the job. You'll hear back within 1 business day to set up a free on-site estimate at a time that works for you.
An arborist or crew lead visits your property, looks at the tree from every angle, and checks for anything that affects the job - power lines, tight access, permit requirements. You get a written, itemized quote before we schedule any work. No vague verbal estimates.
The crew arrives on the scheduled day, does the job, and cleans up completely before leaving - branches chipped, debris hauled, yard walked. Before we go, you walk the site with the crew lead and confirm everything looks right. That's how every job ends.
We carry both general liability and workers' compensation insurance on every job. We'll provide a certificate of insurance before any work begins - just ask.
Every quote is written, itemized, and given after we see the tree in person. The number on your quote is the number on your invoice - no surprise add-ons.
We've been serving Redwood City and the surrounding Peninsula since 2019. We know the local tree species, city permit rules, and PG&E requirements in these neighborhoods.
We don't leave wood rounds or brush piles for you to deal with. Every job ends with a site walkthrough - debris hauled, yard clean, and your sign-off before we go.

"The crew showed up on time and took down a large eucalyptus that had been dropping limbs on our fence. They were done by noon, cleaned everything up, and you'd never know a tree had been there. Really appreciated that they flagged the permit requirement upfront so we weren't scrambling."
David M., Redwood City - Tree Removal
"We had several coast live oaks that needed trimming before fire season. They were careful about the disease protocol and explained what they were doing at every step. The trees look much better now and we feel a lot better heading into the dry months."
Sarah K., San Mateo - Tree Trimming
"Had three stumps from trees removed the previous year - just sitting there making it impossible to mow a clean lawn. They ground all three in about two hours, spread the chips back in, and the yard looks great. Straightforward job, fair price, no drama."

(650) 587-4910Redwood City Tree Service Pros is based in Redwood City and serves 8 cities across the Peninsula, including San Mateo, Belmont, San Carlos, Menlo Park, Palo Alto, Foster City, and Burlingame. We offer same-week scheduling for most jobs, and emergency response is available around the clock throughout our service area.
A slight lean that has been there for years is usually just the tree's natural growth pattern. A lean that developed recently - especially after a wet winter - is a warning sign. Bay Area soils become saturated in heavy rain seasons, which can destabilize roots that were previously secure. If you noticed the lean this year, have it assessed before the next storm season.
Dead branches don't announce when they'll come down. They dry out, lose their attachment strength, and fall - often during wind events, sometimes on calm days. In Redwood City, eucalyptus trees are especially known for dropping large limbs without warning. If you can see dead wood in the canopy from the ground, it should come down on your schedule, not by accident. Learn more at the International Society of Arboriculture.
Sudden oak death has killed thousands of oaks across coastal California, including in San Mateo County. The disease spreads most easily during wet weather, which is why trimming coast live oaks between November and April increases the risk of infection. A knowledgeable arborist will schedule oak work for the dry season and clean tools between trees. If you see dark, wet-looking patches on your oak's bark, call before doing anything else.
Yes, for trees above a certain size. Redwood City requires a permit before removing any tree with a trunk 12 inches or more across at chest height, or any designated heritage tree. Skipping the permit can result in fines and a requirement to replant. Most homeowners don't realize this applies to private property. A local tree service will flag this during the estimate.
California's defensible space guidelines require homeowners to maintain clearance around their structures - and trees that overhang rooflines, drop debris into gutters, or have dead wood in the canopy are direct concerns. The dry season in Redwood City runs roughly May through October. Scheduling trimming in early spring means your trees are cleared before conditions peak.
A decaying stump is an active habitat for termites and carpenter ants. In Redwood City's mild, damp winters, wood decay accelerates quickly, and insects that move in can eventually find their way to nearby fencing or your home's structure. Grinding the stump removes both the stump and the invitation. It's a smaller job than most homeowners expect.

Size alone doesn't make a tree dangerous. Look for recent leaning, cracked bark, soft or hollow sections, mushrooms at the base, or large sections of the canopy with no leaves. Any of these signals a structural problem worth having a professional look at.
Removing a protected tree without a permit can result in fines and a requirement to plant replacement trees at your own expense. The city's Planning Division handles enforcement. A good local contractor will flag this before touching anything.
Yes. Tree removal prices vary significantly between companies, and a quote that comes in much lower than others usually reflects something - shallower stump grinding, no hauling, or missing insurance coverage. Two or three written estimates give you real information.

Redwood City is a city of about 84,000 residents and sits in the middle of San Mateo County, roughly halfway between San Francisco and San Jose on the Peninsula. The city is known for its Mediterranean climate - the motto "Climate Best by Government Test" goes back to a 1920s federal weather study - with warm, dry summers and mild winters that rarely see freezing temperatures. That climate also means trees grow fast, grow large, and stay green nearly year-round, which makes regular tree care a routine part of homeownership here. You can learn more about the city at redwoodcity.org.
The city's neighborhoods vary a lot. The hillside areas in Emerald Hills and Farm Hill have larger lots with mature coast live oaks, steep slopes, and properties where access for tree equipment requires some planning. Downtown and the neighborhoods closer to the bay - including streets near the Caltrain station and Sequoia Hospital - have older homes on smaller lots, often with overhead utility lines running through tree canopies. The mix of housing types, lot sizes, and tree species means no two jobs in Redwood City are exactly alike.
Homes near Oracle's headquarters campus and throughout Redwood City's residential areas sit on clay-heavy soils that shift noticeably with the seasons - swelling when the winter rains come in and shrinking during the long dry summer. That movement is one reason mature trees in this city can develop root problems, surface roots that damage driveways and walkways, and structural issues that only show up after a wet winter.Redwood City Tree Service Pros has been working in Redwood City since 2019, and we understand the local tree species, the permit process, and the conditions that shape tree care here.
