What we do

What tree services does Branch Pro San Diego offer?

Removal, trimming, stump grinding, emergency storm work, palm care, disease diagnosis, and defensible space clearance. One call. One crew that knows San Diego trees.

Why homeowners pick us

Why do San Diego homeowners choose Branch Pro San Diego?

San Diego trees have specific problems. Santa Ana winds snap eucalyptus limbs in the canyons. Coastal pines drop in salt-air saturated soil. East County oaks are stressed from drought and beetle pressure. Palms climb thirty feet past safe trimming height without a bucket truck. We know the species, the terrain, and the equipment.

  • D-49 licensed, ISA-certified arborists. Every crew led by a certified arborist. Tree assessment, disease ID, preservation over removal when the tree can be saved.
  • $2M general liability, full workers' comp. COI sent to your HOA or property manager before we start. If a limb dents something, we cover it.
  • Same-day emergency response. Storm damage, fallen limbs, leaning trees on structures. 24/7 on-call lead, 60 to 120 minute response in the service area.
  • Full cleanup, chipper on-site. Debris hauled out the same day. Wood chips left on request for mulch. Yard cleaner than we found it.

Real feedback

What homeowners across the county say

A eucalyptus limb came down on our fence during the first Santa Ana of the season. Branch Pro had a crew out within two hours, chipped and hauled everything, and the quote matched what they said on the phone. No surprise charges.

Melissa R. Emergency Tree Removal · Carlsbad

Needed Zone 1 compliance before our insurance renewal. They walked the property, flagged the dead oak branches and the overgrown chaparral, and had it all cleared in a day. Insurance signed off first look. Exactly what I was hoping for.

David K. Defensible Space Clearing · El Cajon

Three queen palms and a Mexican fan that hadn't been touched in years. Crew climbed the fans instead of using a lift, left everything clean, and explained exactly how often each species needs servicing. Fair price, no upsell.

Priya S. Palm Tree Trimming · Encinitas

One of our coast live oaks started dropping leaves in June. ISA-certified arborist came out, diagnosed gold-spotted oak borer early, and laid out a treatment plan that probably saved the tree. Knew his stuff, didn't try to sell me a removal.

Tom B. Oak Tree Health Diagnosis · Poway

We had three old stumps eating up half the side yard. They ground all of them below grade in one afternoon, hauled the chips, and the lawn is back. Honest work, clean job site.

Angela M. Stump Grinding · Chula Vista

A storm-damaged Torrey pine was leaning over the neighbor's roof. They staged a crane, set up traffic control, and had the whole tree down in cleanly-rigged sections without touching a shingle. Coordinated everything with the HOA. Real pros.

All FAQs
Do I need a permit to remove a tree in San Diego?

Depends on the tree and the property. City of San Diego Heritage Trees and street trees need a permit. Most trees on private lots in unincorporated county and most municipalities do not, but HOAs often have their own rules. We check permit status before we schedule, and we pull permits on your behalf when they're required.

How much does tree removal cost?

Most residential removals run $400 to $2,800. A small ornamental in an open yard sits at the low end. A mature eucalyptus or palm near the house, power lines, or a fence is the high end. Stump grinding is $150 to $450 separate. Free on-site estimate, flat-rate quote, no hidden fees.

Can you come out today for an emergency?

Yes. Storm damage, fallen limbs blocking a driveway, a tree leaning on a roof — we run emergency calls 24/7. Typical response is 60 to 120 minutes in the service area. After-hours calls go to an on-call lead, not a national dispatcher.

Do you clean up everything when you finish?

Yes. Every job includes full haul-away of limbs, logs, and debris. The chipper runs on-site, the truck hauls out. Your yard looks cleaner than it did before we started. Want the wood chips for mulch? We'll leave a pile.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. California D-49 Tree Service Contractor license, $2 million general liability, and full workers' comp on every crew member. Certificate of insurance sent direct to your HOA or property manager before we start.
