Asking the right questions to find the needs of the client, I believe listening is one of the most important aspects of customer service.”

Work project was to trim growth on a pine tree of approximately 25 ft in height to create a “Bonsai” effect. The tree had been trimmed over at least 25 years to create the Bonsai effect. However, as owners, and our age, we felt the work should be contracted to others. We were somewhat apprehensive when SavATree crew arrived on the scene to initiate the work. It appeared unlikely that any of...

We had a great experience from the bid to the last guys leaving our property. We had a 70’ silver maple removed and the workers were great. The tree came down with care and they left everything so clean. The guys who came to grind the stump a few days later did an amazing job prepping it for a new tree to be planted in the same spot. Affordable and professional, highly recommend.

SavATree did an amazing job on the trees on our new property!

She is very responsive and assessed the needs of our trees to come up with a plan to improve their health. A week later, a crew came to trim our oak tree. They were very thorough and efficient. We also had...
