The team was wonderful. We had a large tree removed and some heavy pruning in tall trees. The access point was tight but they worked so well with it all. Olivia was my main contact and she was thoughtful and listened really well. She was prompt and creative in helping us out. The crew, led by Eddie and Todd, along with Nate, Clint and Antwan, were amazing. So considerate and careful. Work was...

The weather was not nice in the morning and notifed me they would be arriving later than planned. When they arrived they introduced themselves and started working. It took them 5 to 6 hours to trim 8 large trees. Once done everything was cleaned up and trees looked good.

I use Sav-a-Tree (formerly General Tree Service) regularly, including an annual support service for our dozen trees that line our driveway. The fellows who come out for this are great: they do their job quietly, neatly and efficiently and then they leave. No over-talking or upselling. They also know about trees, which I find to be helpful.

Josh and his crew did an excellent job today trimming and limbing up our trees. One of the trees was quite close to our house. They took extra care to direct the very large dead limbs away from the house so that no damage was done. Josh was very knowledgeable and explained everything carefully not only to us, but also to his crew. This is a hard working, pleasant crew who was thorough in their...

I found SavATree to be super easy to work with. They quickly sent someone out to give me and estimate, and I could tell right away that they were knowledgeable about what my trees needed and how to properly prune them. They did a great job with all the pruning and cleaned up after themselves. The office staff were pleasant to work with too.

Property Tree Treatment - I was so impressed with the crew that came out! They made sure my dog was not exposed to the chemicals, and I saw one of the crew cover the dog’s bowls to make sure chemicals didn’t get inside them. Extremely impressed!
