Specialized Arbor Works

Gregg and crew are great to work with! We've used them at least 3 times now. They are really knowlegable about trees and pruning. I can trust that they will interpret what I ask of them and tell me if it can be done, or if not advisable they provide an explanation. Very tidy, respectful and polite service. I really appreciate their expertise. They are careful and take their time doing a great job. They do not disappoint!

If I could give Gregg, the owner of Specialized Arbor Works, more than 5 stars I would. A wonderful experience from start to finish.

Gregg answered my call promptly and showed up the same day to evaluate the job. He was clear in what needed to be done and direct about the timetable (they are very busy). The price was fair and there was no attempt to oversell what needed to be done.

I originally called Gregg because of an unfortunate interaction between a tree in my front yard and a large dump truck (ouch!). I knew I wanted more than just a standard tree trimming company that might come out and mutilate my tree. Gregg is a certified arborist and I was so impressed by his knowledge, and by his generosity in sharing what he knows, that I asked him to also work on the trees in my backyard.

I can't recommend Specialized Arbor Works enough. After this experience there is no one else I would use.

Can't thank Gregg and Zach enough for coming by and giving advice on our tree pruning efforts. They didn't have time to take on the job, but spent an hour with me going through the things to look for and guidance how to execute. Good people doing good work. Give them a call!

We've been reaching out to Gregg & Zach for a few years now and we're always very happy with their work, from start to finish. They're great to work with and they keep our trees looking great. Highly recommended for any tree work you might need done!

Hire Specialized Arbor Works for knowledgable, friendly, and excellent service.

Gregg & Zach did a great job pruning our trees. They look so much better, and it will be much easier to harvest fruit from the fruit trees. I also appreciate that Gregg came out in April to give me an estimate and followed through on that estimate in November once I finally got around to scheduling them.

I'll be calling them again when it's time for some more pruning. Thanks again, y'all!

Awesome work by Gregg and his crew.

Gregg is very friendly and responsive to communications.

He knows his trees (and super-overgrown shrubs), he quoted accurately, and arrived on time.

His crew worked through a little rain/drizzle (which I was very thankful for), took care with the task at hand, and left the job site as clear as it could have been with the amount of work they had to do (three large/50+ft. trees that had NEVER been pruned).

I'd hire Gregg again in a heartbeat.

**On May 1, 2015 I spoke with Gregg Huddleston, and learned that Specialized Arbor Works is VERY MUCH still OPEN for business. Please don't let the false claim on Yelp deter you from calling him. He's tried, without success, to have the status changed on Yelp.**

We have used Gregg to trim and remove several trees (including a Podocarpus, Japanese maple, willow, and evergreen) three times in the 5 1/2 years we've lived in Alameda. He and the men on his crew have always been kind, professional, done a great job with maximum respect for the health of our trees, and have cleaned up after themselves. We've always been very, very happy with their work.

I recommend Gregg very highly.

Gregg Huddleston and his crew are pros at pruning- quick, careful, and super competent. They climbed up a very tall tree and trimmed it to look beautiful. Also Gregg has offered us valuable advice on how to keep our lovely mature trees alive and healthy. Nice guy, great work, KNOWS TREES, good business ethic. Highly recommended.

Gregg and Zach have gotten to know my yard and trees well enough that I don't even have to think every year when it's time for the annual prune. Plum, apple, pear, crabapple, apricot have all benefitted from their care. Can't say enough about their caring and commitment to quality work. Reasonable prices too!

I called Gregg (based on a recommendation) for some trimming work on a large podocarpus. His availability was good, price was reasonable, he showed up on time, and he finished at the short end of the time range that he had estimated. Results were excellent. I could not have asked for more, and will call him again.
