Customer Testimonials

“We appreciate the time and attention that your Arbor Patrol team takes to maintain the overall health and appearance of the trees, bushes and general grounds. As they say, you can only have one first impression and the impression the grounds make on both residents and visitors alike is always positive thanks to your caring maintenance. Just as the trees continue to grow and blossom under your care, we hope our relationship with SavATree does the same.”

“After four different unsatisfactory visits with so-called arborists, I found SavaTree... I was most impressed with the professionalism of David [my arborists] and his colleagues. They were most knowledgeable, fair with their assessment about what needed to be done, yet very attuned with what my concerns. I highly recommend them without any hesitation. In a field where there is an abundance of folks looking to take advantage of consumers, SavaTree, David and crew strike me as incredibly honest and proud arborists who do a fantastic job.”

“I am a new and highly satisfied customer of SavATree. For 50 years I have lived in the same house in the Greenhaven area, and in that time I have never had a tree company that gave me such fine service.”

“For over 14 years, I have entrusted the care of my trees, plants and orchard to SavATree. Their highly qualified arborists have exacting standards and understand how to maintain the health and form of the various species of trees on my property. I admire the artistic skill that goes into the pruning and love the colorful blossoms, fruits and foliage that flourish as a result of their impeccable care.”

Martha Stewart

"Efficient, high quality, professional competence — all at a competitive sum. At first [Alison] Pottage won me over by her solid knowledge as an arborist, then the crew did their job to her specifications on our 60 to 70 foot oaks within a remarkable period of time -- and left the grounds quite clean.”

Bob Busser
Philadelphia, PA

“You take on a job, call it a problem, gigantic or small, and you go to it. True Professionals. I am at peace for having found SavATree. Sometimes bills are paid grudgingly. I pay with respect to a company whose pride lives up to its logo. It’s love of what you do and I thank you.”

SavATree Employees Scale Trees in
International Tree Climbing Championship

Gaithersburg, MD—SavATree tree ascension specialists Antonio Turcios, Maximo Merino, and Jose P. Bonilla spent Saturday racing through contests in Montgomery County in Gaithersburg, Maryland. They were competitors in the International Tree Climbing Championship (ITCC), a series of arbor contests that have been held since the 1970s.

The games include: a work climb where contestants must climb to five stations in a tree, completing a task to advance to the next level; an aerial rescue where contestants must reach and safely lower an injured climber (a life-sized mannequin); a throwline, which tests the contestants ability to place lines in a tree at heights ranging from forty to sixty feet; a belayed speed climb of sixty feet; and a secured footlock which gauges the ability to perform a forty foot vertical. Nick Bomber, Operations Manager for the SavATree Springfield Branch in Fairfax County in Massachusetts, was actually one of the judges for the throwline event.

The ITCC was conceptualized by Dick Alvarez in 1975, who ran these events in his company, Arbor Tree Surgery, to maintain the classic skills that would prepare a climber to complete an aerial rescue with only a rope. The ITCC does more than test these skills, however, the ITCC have brought the manufacturers and those who use their products together, leading to a proliferation of inventions and tools designed specifically for tree care. The safety standards throughout the world have benefited from these developments as well as enjoying an increased amount of respect for climbers and their role in the community. These tools and safety standards allow arborists to better care for and maintain the environment.

After placing thirteenth in the competition, Antonio Turcios said, “This is probably one of the most fun events to go to. We get to meet people from all over who have the same interests as we do, and there is definitely a sense of camaraderie. You never know what innovations could come as a result of this. Sometimes I think people forget that to prune and care for trees, you have to be able to actually get up into the tree – this competition reminds us how important that ability is.”
