Jose Landscaping & Tree Removal

Call Tuesday, quote Wednesday, crew on site at seven Friday morning. That sequence — described by a homeowner this past March — is the shape of nearly every account Jose Landscaping and Tree Removal has collected since 2021. The company runs out of Lynn and the job is almost always trees: a hemlock and three cedars in one visit, a 65-foot locust and a maple in another, twelve hazard trees cleared after a single call. Angi rates it 4.7 from 208 ratings, HomeAdvisor 4.7 from 222, and the BBB grades the business A+. Two things come up more than anything else. Speed is the first — a 2023 customer wrote that Jose rang back within five minutes of the quote request and had four trees and five bushes gone inside a week; another, in December 2021, had a damaged tree leaning over a neighbour's property on a steep incline taken down the morning after the survey. The second is the state of the yard when the crew leaves. "Cleaned up all debris", "left the area clean", "cleaned up all the mess" — that beat repeats across five years, and it is what reviewers mention when they mention nothing else. The equipment turns up in the accounts too: three trucks and a cherry picker in a February 2023 job, and in March 2026 a customer noted gear you would expect from a much larger operation on a business that is still owner-run. One thing to raise before booking. Across 30 reviews spanning 2021 to 2026 there is a single 0.5-star rating, posted to Angi in April 2022, and it does not match its own text — the words praise the crew and recommend hiring them while the score sits at the bottom of the scale. Ask what happened on that job. And because the ratings here come almost entirely from Angi and HomeAdvisor, ask for a couple of local references as well. Four reviews have landed in the last six months, all five-star, so this is a current record rather than a historical one. For a tree that has to come down soon — storm damage, a leaner over a neighbour's roof, a hazard spotted after a hard winter — this is the outfit that answers and shows up with the right machine.
