Tree of Knowledge Tree Care

We have had Tree of Knowledge do all of our tree work over the last several years. Since we found them, the thought of using another company has not entered our minds. The work they do is superb. Mind you, I loathe hyperbole so you know this is an outstanding company if they can elicit that from me. They made both the Oak trees in back and Pine tree in front look beautiful! Aaron is a true gentleman, giving all the pertinent information a person needs to make an informed decision. In short, I highly recommend Aaron and the Tree of Knowledge for all your needs having to do with trees!

Aaron Robertson owner of Tree of Knowledge has done multiple jobs over many years for me. He is always on time for appointments and is in constant contact throughout the process. His crew is friendly, knowledgable, clean, and hard working. Again, showed up on time and cleaned up after themselves. Always met my expectations. I would recommend Aaron and his company.

I have many big trees on the sidewalk planted by the city of San Jose that I want to have them trimmed because they have not been trimmed since we bought the property 10yrs ago. I happened to find Aaron on line and decide to try his service.
I am very pleased with his team. They are very nice, polite and did any excellent job for my trees. The trees look beautiful and natural, and I know that I will not have to repeat the job again for several years. His price is also good and fair.
I will ask them to help me again in the future.

Aaron and his team did an excellent job on my property. Aaron and his team went above and beyond to make sure that i was fully satisfied with their tree service. I would recommend their services to anyone looking for tree service.

Another great experience with Aaron and his crew! They came to clean up some tree debris from the recent storm (PGE cleared it to the side of the road). Aaron’s team did a nice job of cleaning up the debris that went a good 50′+ down the slope and cutting up the trunks small enough that I could haul them to my house myself.
Neighbor who drove by seemed to think they just threw the debris down the hill (on his side of the property) and created a fire hazard. Took me a few days to see it in daylight, but Aaron was there immediately to make sure the crew did what was agreed (they did) and make sure that I was happy with the work (I was). He took pictures, was more than accommodating and willing to do more work, but we agreed whatever the neighbor was seeing what not in the scope of the job (e.g. neighbor was mistaken about the situation– didn’t get out of his car to look down the hill … whatever was there had been there for quite some time and was completely unrelated to this incident!).
Super-​responsive, fair, honest, did the work and diplomatically helped me deal with the neighbor using pictures and facts :-). Thanks for the follow-​up Aaron — sorry for the hassle.

Based on a recommendation from a neighbor (Santa Cruz mtns), I contacted Aaron at Tree of Knowledge and scheduled time for him to come by and see the trimming and tree removal work I wanted done. He was punctual, polite, friendly and honest. We agreed on the trees to cut/​trim and set up a date/​time. His crew of 4 arrived at the stated time, and after instructions from Aaron, they got to work.
I was interested in getting the big oaks and a large pine trimmed/​felled more than in chipping or hauling away the chips. To save them some time (so I could get more trimming for my money), all chips were sprayed out on to a dirt area near my driveway, nothing was hauled away, and they never had to move their truck. We also moved all of our cars out of the driveway and out from under the oaks we wanted trimmed, ahead of time.
The most important trees to me are a cluster of large, majestic oaks that provide summer shade and some privacy, but had many branches high up (30+feet) overhanging our 2^nd story roof and chimney. These trees are also a focal point for the front of our house. So we needed the branches near the roof removed (fire protection), branches low to the ground lifted (fire protection), and the group of oaks trimmed/​shaped. Aaron’s crew spent the most time on these trees and it really shows — they looks magnificent! The timing was also good since a few days later we had strong winds and it was probably beneficial to have the big branches a bit lighter…
Besides the cluster of oaks, his crew cut, bucked, and chipped a 40+ foot tall, thick pine near our driveway. They also removed (bucked/​chipped) a big (thick) but diseased/​dying oak down the hill in our backyard. They chipped a burn pile we had nearby, they felled/​bucked an oak that was starting to block our southern view, they trimmed 4 other trees near the house, they removed a couple of other small trees that would have been easy for me to do, but was nice to just get it done at the same time.
His crew was friendly, worked hard, stayed late, did an extra task or two, and CLEANED UP everything!
Highly recommend.

Aaron and his crew just finished a second job at our house and, again, we couldn’t be happier with the result. He and his crew are professional, knowledgable and responsive. They were neat and they completely cleaned up, removing all the tree debris when they left. Aaron followed up afterward and his pricing was fair. I would highly recommend Tree of Knowledge and I will definitely call them again in the future!

Aaron and his team do great work. Our two trees look so much better. His crew do a great job of cutting and trimming. Everything is very clean when they leave. I am really impressed with Aaron’s knowledge and the skill of his team

At first Aaron and I disagreed on a few things but then he went out of his way to make me a happy customer. Thank you again!

I’ve known Aaron Robertson for about 6 years. He and his merry band of tree technicians have trimmed my trees 4 times, either representing his previous company, or the latest, June 23, representing his own company, the Tree Of Knowledge. Each and every time he has been helpful, knowledgeable, friendly, accommodating, and on time. His guys are always very professional and easy to work with — just tell them what you want and they do it. Their experience and artistic sense is very helpful when trying to decide just where to cut.
His climbers do not use climbing spikes, unless the tree is dead, so that the trees are not marked by unsightly holes in the bark. They work safely and the guy up the tree will not make a cut unless he is tied securely to the tree. They also protect plants or objects on the ground by roping limbs or pieces and gently lowering them to the ground.
Always a great experience working with Aaron.

Great company! Quick response on scheduling an estimate & a date to do the work. And even quicker when they did the job. Very professional, showed up on time, did the job, cleaned up everything & was gone. Definitely would use this company in the future & would highly recommend this company for you! Thanks Aaron!!!
