How we vet partners

Foothill Tree Care is a referral directory — we don't do tree work ourselves. What we do is the vetting up front, so the company we send to your home is one we'd let work on our own.

Active CSLB license

We confirm a current California Contractors State License Board license in an appropriate class (C-61/D-49 tree service, or C-27 landscaping where applicable) before a company joins — and that it's in good standing, not expired or suspended.

Real, current insurance

General liability and workers' compensation coverage, verified by certificate. This is the protection that matters if something goes wrong on your property — and it's non-negotiable.

References and track record

We look at past work and customer references, not just a logo and a phone number. Tree work is dangerous and high-stakes; experience shows.

Written quotes, no pressure

Network companies agree to give you a written, itemized quote before work begins, and to compete on honesty — including telling you when a tree doesn't need to come out.

What we don't do

We don't perform tree removal, pruning, or any field work, and we're not a licensed contractor. The matched company is the contractor of record and is responsible for the work, its license, its insurance, and any permits. We're compensated by network companies for verified introductions, in line with FTC §255 — which is why this stays free for you.
