Reviews of local pros in Beaverton, Oregon

When Leo came out to my house to look at the tree so he could give me a price I asked how the process worked. I was told that they rope everything down turned out. They drop everything down. Plants were ruined. Big chunks dropped onto my neighbors concrete basketball pad. A manager did come out and said he would have the office lady call me Monday. The office said she called me Monday. She never called. I even reached out. She never called back. Used to be general. I used for 13 years.

Great communication, experienced personnel and very positive results. Our Large Beech had aphids and between spraying and root. Injections our Beech is very happy.

We had a big job after the January (2024) snowstorm. Over 40 trees down on our 17 acre property. There were many mature trees that had fallen in inconvenient places: in ponds, over fences, against buildings. It was all in a days work for General Tree. They showed up when they said they would, accomplished everything they were asked to do, and responded to every email, text, and phone call. All of this with a smile and a positive attitude in the cold, falling rain! I can't recommend them enough.

The people trimmed my pine and plum trees did a wonderful job. They made sure to ask my input every steps the way while they worked on the trimming to make sure they did exactly as what I wished. They also very polite and prompt. Before they leave they also cleaned all the debris from the ground. PERFECT services!

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.

We had a tree that was looking sickly. They sent a rep and he felt it needed to we agreed with his quote. A crew came and took it down , along with branches from another 3 trees that would have caused future problems. The crew just left after doing a great cleanup. Would recommend them to anyone needing services of a professional arborist.

The SavATree team helped me with some overgrown bushes and dead shrubs as well as cutting and shaping overgrown arborvitaes. The team called ahead of time and showed up early and got straight to work. The job was done quickly and efficiently and all debris was cleaned up. The crew leader was very pleasant and professional to work with.

We requested 3 bids to trim and prune some big over grown trees in our backyard. We ended up going with SavATree for their reasonable price, professionalism and wonderful follow through with communication. Both Rheena and Phil's team did a great job from initial consultation to the work day. Thank You! I will be recommending them to others.

As a previous happy customer of General Tree Service, I gave SavATree a try after their merger. I will not be a repeat customer. The pruning work is fine (though not as thorough as General in terms of removing dead branches). The crews were professional. The various departments could very much improve in their communication with each other and with customers. I was receiving emails from one department to schedule services I had already scheduled with the arborist who did my quote. Then when I needed to follow up about the work that wasn't completed, he was out of town and it took me multiple tries to get a call back from anyone else at the company. I wouldn't have bothered to write a review about any of this, but the last straw was SavATree saved my payment method from my first service without my knowledge and automatically charged that card for an additional service a month later. No invoice, no receipt, no email, just a charge on the same card. Yes, a separate payment was required for the additional service, but I would expect to be invoiced and make the payment myself unless I had requested for them to automatically charge (and save) a card on file. SavATree is not worth the high prices or the hassle.

I have used this company twice now and the team is amazing!! They communicate very well and the tree cutting team is great! They clearly have fun at their job and are very personable.

Just had two trees removed, and couldn't believe how quick and professional the entire crew was. Very respectful of clean up of other properties, as well as ours. I would definitely recommend the crew.

Whenever I see Jake leave a bad review for a business, I know they are doing a good job. He had the nerve to leave a 1 star review for a Veterans of Foreign Wars Post that he had never been to. His reviews carry no weight with anybody.

Would have loved to had the chance, but after communication asking how I was referred I got a terse call a couple days later advising they aren't taking new clients. No timeline could be given for if/when they would again. I understand they may need to make difficult decisions with their time, but they weren't very considerate of my time. If you're too busy for new work take down the submission form, or make prospective clients aware and just refer me to your partner service straight away. It'll save us both time.

Very happy with the service from this team. They did just want we agreed on and they were quick, respectful, clean and reasonable. Answered all of my questions with a smile. We will use them again. Thanks much.

The "For The Love Of Trees" team removed 5 invasive trees on our property. They were professional, efficient and a joy to watch. They really enjoy the work they do. I recommend them highly.

Oh, For the Love of Trees!
This was my first experience with this company and it was obvious to me that they do have a love of trees! The two Tree Masters that came to prune up a Douglas fir and a Portuguese Laurel were professional, efficient and super tidy.
Thank you so much! My trees (and myself) are very grateful.

We connected through chipdrop.com. They called my cell phone 20 min before drop off to make sure the drop site was accessible. They dropped off the woodchips and the driver made some extra effort to make sure he got them dropped off in my backyard. Very clean delivery of wood chips. No logs or sticks. Very satisfied.

Highly recommend For the Love of Trees if you want passionate, knowledgable, courteous people on the case. They pruned our trees with such care and precision, so that they looked so healthy and natural afterward—and gave us a lot of peace of mind during the next wind and ice storms. Plus, we learned a lot about our own trees in the process!

We had them trim a front yard tree several times, as well as some other pruning work. Our primary concern was to reduce the size of the front yard tree to one more appropriate to its location. They explained this needed to be done in multiple steps. On two subsequent years, they trimmed some branches but tree height continued to increase. The third time we called for their services, they doubled the price since they were so busy following winter storm damage. Although they had been friendly, prompt and cleaned up well, they never effectively reduced the height or breadth of the tree causing us the most concern. Further they had no loyalty to return customers. We will find another arborist.

The company responded to my questions in search of a bid within hours. They had me send pics and did not require me to come out to give me a bid. The bid was prompt and much less expensive than two other bids I received. Two friendly folks showed up 5 minutes early the day of pruning, walked around with me and gave me some suggestions, asked questions and jumped to work. I returned home to find my Japanese maples, fruit trees and evergreens looking amazing. I will be making their assistance an annual thing. Can't send pics currently, so apologies there.

Without asking any specific details about my tree, they assumed up front that my tree service needs were not worth of their time to provide an estimate. They said they only do estimates for $800 dls minimum of work so they thought my sweetgum tree damaged from the last storm was not going to be that much. First, if this is a transparent business they should post the $800 minimum requirement on their website with their free estimate advertising. Second, I felt that my request was quickly discarded in 5 seconds without asking any additional details about my tree, maybe they thought I just planted it last year, actually, this is a big tree, 40ft at least with a wide canopy. I already have a couple of appointments from other reputable and friendlier tree service businesses in Portland.
