About Us
Since 1974, we’ve been helping families and businesses across Seaside, CA, care for their trees with honesty, safety, and pride. What started as one man’s skill has grown into a family legacy of professional tree services built on trust and hard work.
Lopez Tree Service was founded by Mike Lopez Sr., who began trimming trees as a child and turned that passion into a lifelong craft. Over the decades, we’ve expanded our services, from tree trimming and removal to landscape design and 24-hour emergency response, all while keeping the same personal, community-first approach.
Our family has seen just about every tree challenge possible, storm damage, fallen oaks, and stubborn stumps, and through it all, we’ve stayed focused on what matters most: keeping our customers safe, satisfied, and stress-free.
We’re proud to be fully licensed, bonded, and insured, giving our clients confidence that their property is always in good hands. Whether we’re removing a hazard, shaping a favorite tree, or restoring a storm-damaged yard, we treat every job like it’s part of our own home.
Our bilingual team proudly serves Seaside, Monterey, and nearby communities, offering friendly communication and reliable service 24/7. For us, tree care isn’t just a job; it’s a family tradition rooted in integrity and care for our neighbors.
Our Values
Generations of Tree Care Knowledge and Skill
Our story began more than five decades ago with one family’s passion for trees and community service. What started as simple yard work has grown into a trusted, full-service operation built on deep generational experience and a lifelong commitment to learning. Every technique we use today reflects years of practice, mentorship, and continual skill development passed down through our family.
We take pride in combining traditional care with modern safety standards and innovative equipment. From pruning and shaping to safe removals and property protection, every service we perform carries the same attention to detail that defined our beginnings.
Our long history in tree care means we understand local tree species, soil conditions, and climate challenges that others might overlook. That knowledge allows us to provide solutions that are safe, efficient, and built to last, rooted in family knowledge and decades of hands-on experience.
Tree work demands precision, safety, and responsibility; that’s why being licensed, bonded, and insured isn’t just a promise; it’s a requirement we proudly uphold.
Lopez Tree Service operates with an active California state license, which confirms our compliance with all local and industry regulations. This protects both our team and our customers, ensuring that every project is completed with full accountability.
Being licensed means we meet strict standards for skill, safety, and service. Being bonded and insured means your property and investment are fully protected from start to finish. You can feel confident knowing your yard, home, or business is handled by qualified professionals who value transparency, accountability, and excellence in every job.
We believe trust is built on transparency and responsibility, and we’re proud to back our workmanship with the credentials and integrity that have kept us serving Seaside and the surrounding communities for generations.
Our team specializes in a wide range of tree services, designed to handle everything from small residential pruning to large-scale commercial removals. Whether you need trimming, stump grinding, emergency cleanups, or maintenance for specialized tree species like oaks and cypress, we have the knowledge and equipment to do it safely and efficiently.
We take pride in offering a complete scope of services that few local companies can match. Our equipment and experience allow us to handle challenging jobs, including trees near power lines, close to structures, or on uneven terrain, with precision and care. Every project is customized to meet your property’s needs, ensuring both safety and aesthetic appeal.
From private homes to commercial properties, our goal is the same: to keep your trees healthy, your yard beautiful, and your environment safe. No matter the size or complexity of the task, we’re equipped to handle it all.
At Lopez Tree Service, we believe great service goes beyond trimming or removals; it’s about protecting what matters most to you. Our commitment to customer care and yard protection guides everything we do. From the first estimate to the final cleanup, we treat every property as if it were our own.
We take special care to safeguard surrounding plants, lawns, and hardscapes during every project. Our team uses proven methods to minimize impact while delivering precise results. Communication is key; we listen, we plan, and we make sure each customer understands the process and cost before we begin.
This commitment extends to reliability: showing up on time, completing work safely, and leaving your space cleaner than we found it. It’s our goal to make every customer feel confident, respected, and satisfied, because tree care should always feel personal, not stressful.
We’re proud to serve a diverse community, and communication is at the heart of great service. That’s why our team provides bilingual support in both English and Spanish, making it easier for every customer to express their needs, understand recommendations, and feel fully confident in their decisions.
Emergencies don’t wait for business hours, and neither do we. Our emergency tree services are available 24/7 to handle fallen trees, storm damage, or urgent safety hazards quickly and safely. With our fast response and bilingual communication, we make sure help is never out of reach.

Combining accessibility, professionalism, and local understanding, we ensure every customer receives the timely, respectful, and high-quality care they deserve, whenever and however they need it.
