Trusted Tree Care for Mission Viejo Homeowners Since 1989


Mission Viejo is one of America's original master-planned communities - and 60 years in, it has matured into a city full of substantial trees that demand serious arborist expertise. The melaleucas of Casta del Sol, the eucalyptus along Aliso Creek, the mature ornamentals throughout The Heights, and the heritage plantings around Lake Mission Viejo are all reaching ages where structural assessment and preservation work become critical. Every Mission Viejo job also involves HOA coordination - and California Arbor Care has been navigating OC HOAs since 1989.

  • Mission Viejo's master-planned origins gave it a distinctive tree mix. We regularly work with mature melaleucas (paperbark trees, common throughout the city), eucalyptus, jacarandas, southern magnolias, queen palms, Italian cypress, deodar cedars, olive trees, ornamental pears, Chinese pistache, California pepper trees, and ornamental pines. Many of these trees were planted at original community development and are now reaching ages where structural concerns are common.

  • HOA approval is required for almost any significant tree work in Mission Viejo - we produce ISA Certified Arborist reports as routine practice and know how to work with the various community HOAs in the city. Melaleuca trees have aggressive surface roots that cause hardscape damage. Aging eucalyptus throughout the city sometimes require structural cabling or selective removal during pre-Santa Ana wind seasons. We also see frequent work on aging ornamentals where the trees have outgrown their original landscape plan and now threaten structures or block sight lines.

  • We service homes throughout Mission Viejo, including Aliso Villas, Casta del Sol, Mission Hills, Coastal Hills, Stoneridge, Painted Trails, The Heights, Madrid Fore, Cordova Vista, Pacific Hills, and the Lake Mission Viejo communities. If your neighborhood isn't listed, give us a call - we cover most of the city and surrounding areas.

  • A Casta del Sol homeowner needed work on three mature melaleucas that were heaving the front walkway and threatening the foundation. We produced the required HOA arborist report, navigated the approval process with the community association, and removed the trees with root grinding and replanted with two species better suited to the planting strip. The homeowner avoided thousands in future hardscape repair, and the HOA approved the replacement plan without issue.
