“Rick Rudnick has been taking care of trees at my residences for the last 7 years and I have always been pleased with the quality of his work.  At  this time he is doing a much larger work for me since I am serving as President of the Arroyo Springs Condo Association.  His trimming of trees on this large property has enhanced the beauty of our surroundings tremendously.  Many of our owners have commented that the trees look better and healthier than at any time in the history of the association.  Rick appreciates the integrity of plants and he strives to bring together the elements of beauty and health in each tree.”
 

President, Arroyo Springs Homeowners Association

We have worked with Rick for many years and we have always found him to be very honest, very fair, very professional and extremely good at what he does. We highly recommend him.

La Casa de Maria Retreat and Conference Center has hundreds of California live oak trees on its 26-acre property.  Many of them are over 100 years old, and some are not in good condition as a result of lack of proper care over the years.  Rick was recommended to us for his expertise, and has now been working on our trees for over a year.  We have found him to be a very conscientious and skilled worker and very passionate about the proper treatment of oak trees.  Rick rarely uses a chain saw, preferring instead to use hand tools to remove dead wood from the trees.  He analyzes each tree carefully, keeps the health of the tree as his first priority, is conscious of aesthetics, works quietly, and educates us in ways to improve the health of the trees.  Our trees are very important to us, and we consider ourselves very fortunate to have discovered someone whom we can trust absolutely to give them the best possible care.     

Director, La Casa de Maria Retreat and Conference Center

We had several old oak trees that were in need of care. Rick came by the same day and spent a long time discussing what each tree needed. He completed the work quickly and our oaks are healthy and beautiful once again. We found him to be very knowledgeable and easy to work with. As a Realtor, I have no hesitation recommending him to my clients.
