Tree reviews in Mountainside, New Jersey

Eric and his team were extremely professional and their work was very high quality! It was very easy to communicate directly about the urgent work we needed done. I’ll be going back to them when needed in the future!

SavATree is the only tree company we’ll use. Their arborist, Ryan Case, is the best. He’s why we’re loyal customers of SavATree. I wish everyone was as knowledgeable, professional, friendly, and smart as Ryan.

Avoid. They came late May. Diagnosed my plants with aphids. They had already done the spring treatment so said it may be a little time. They finally came and fertilized the plants first which seemed bizarre to pay that money to feed the aphids. Aphids continued to multiply. Finally called them early July to say when is my aphid treatment scheduled? . It wasn’t but they did it that week. A Tech, not properly trained, used high pressure and at times appeared to be trying to blow the aphids to kingdom come. The spray went everywhere on my house, on my car, on me (12 feet away around a corner). Soon as he left, rained it all off. They did agree to reapply and do come today another two weeks later. Almost two months since I contracted them, Aphids have multiplied, leaves are falling off the shrubs exposing bare wood (photo attached). This is what $400 got me. Terminated service now. Will buy stuff from Home Depot now. Hope it works. Arborist was very nice.

Eric Grow of Savatree found that we had a defective tree. In 1987, a giant tree uprooted. So we wanted this defective tree removed. It was giant and near our house. Eric and his crew headed by Sebastian did a fantastic, safe job. No damage to our house at all.
Bravo!!!!!!

Eric and the team at SavATree are the only people we trust to help us keep our giant tree healthy! We inherited a sycamore that is 100+ years old and is the shade for four houses in our neighborhood. We love our tree and want to make sure it stays in great shape-Eric and the team have helped with treatments and trimming to make sure it is always at it's best.

Great job by the Savatree team on my tree concerns over the years; Jody gave a bunch of options, quoted and was patient as we made a few inquiries. At the end of the day, sometimes cheaper than others, other times a little more, but they had insurance and provided a lot of consistent work and Jody always double-checks on the work before and after with me to make sure we're happy, sending people back if needed on anything missing. Foreman Tom and worker Willy were superb, quick and safe - cleaned up nicely, too, this time, taking down a tree near wires.

Sava-a-Tree Save-a-Lawn has treated the landscape for our home for nearly 30 years ~~ that's quite a run! They emailed me today, telling me that they did not apply a treatment to our pink dogwood because the leaves haven't opened up enough yet (or such). They wrote that they will return to do the treatment in the near future. I appreciate the SAT-SAL individualizes their treatments.

This dogwood is beautiful and very old. It was planted just after WW2. My dogwood has certainly benefitted from the care provided by everyone in this business.

I've had a couple of good experiences with them besides this last year. But I paid a lot of money only to have them fall beyond short of what I hired them for. I told them I wanted stronger grass and to fill up all of the patches I have. Those are the only two goals I'd like completed. They said ok and that I'd have to get the full treatment to see the best results (about 5 months of various treatments). I trusted them and had them work on my lawn for well over a thousand dollars throughout the summer. My grass looks the same, if not worse.

I was also told from one of the specialists that the seeding used on my lawn was the wrong type when considering the sunlight exposure. They also barely aerated and seeded the areas that needed it the most. I've voiced my concerns and was told they would help me out, but the last time I spoke to them they didn't offer any remediation. Beyond frustrating. Never using them again and would also recommend a smaller company to hopefully get some better quality control.

And after cancelling almost 6 months ago, they still sent someone to my house to fertilize some bushes. If I wasn't home to tell him I cancelled, they would've charged me for this service too.
