Description of Work: .

Description of Work: I purchased a Big Deal for $140 for $300 worth of tree service. The work I wanted done would have not amounted to more than $300, but they quoted me over $1,000. I just needed some branches cut back and some dead shrubbery removed.

Description of Work: did not use them yet. they are coming out in two weeks to cut some trees and prune. they came out today 4-22-2013

Description of Work: We had concerns about a specimen rhododendron that had been severely damaged by winter storms. A very knowledgeable qualified arborist came and assessed the damage, and we discussed our options. He was friendly, took his time, answered our questions, and gave us good advice. We will be calling them again in the early summer to do work - he told us that was the appropriate followup window. Would recommend based on this meeting. No work done as yet.

Description of Work: I bought a Big Deal from them for lawn fertilization and weed control treatment.

Description of Work: Quoted price of service not competitive.

Description of Work: Very profesional diagnosis of my tree problems and good service in repairing some problems

Description of Work: We use them every year or two to repair storm damage on trees and clean up the large brush piles we accumulate from our own efforts over the course of the year. This past spring they cleaned up the damage from Hurricane Irene and the Haloween snow storm and also took down a dead pine tree. This year's work involved climbing several trees to lop off dead and damaged branches. [we have some great pictures of them doing this if you'd like them.] They bring a huge chipper that makes quick work of our brush, which we really appreciate, though their workers don't like to drag the stuff across our yard. This year it produced about 5 cubic yards of wood chips that we spread in the wooded area in our far back. They're kind of pricey; their minimum charge is about $800 and goes up from there, but the $100 off from the Angies List Big Deal helps a little. On the whole though, we're really satisfied with them and plan to continue using them for the tree work we require every year or so.

Description of Work: I don't remember in detail. Save a Tree has done work for me for many years. They pruned trees and bushes. They took down branches and they fertilized. They always gave good service; good value for the money. They were professional in every way. I now live in a condo with no trees or shrubs, but if I did own trees and shrubs, I would definitely call on them to do necessary work. I would recommend them highly.

Description of Work: Estimate was performed on one day and then trimmers came later. Trimmers weren't sure of estimators description and took less than estimator had allocated but it was fine. They all arrived on time & even cleaned up extra brush so that made up for it!

Description of Work: I purchased a Big Deal with a value of $300. Should be enough to get some real work done. When the estimator came over, it turned out that that would only cover a trimming of an arborvitae hedge, not even a long hedge. Then, in that meeting he also convinced me to spend an extra $150 to fertilize some small shrubs. To me this was one job, driven by the Angies List coupon. Within several weeks, they ostensibly sent someone over to fertilize some shrubs and billed me. I wasn't home so I cannot comment on the work or even whether it was done. Yes, they left a flier saying they were there. Then I received a series of bills for the work to fertilize the shrubs, but I did not hear back from the company about trimming the hedge. Thus my initial objections about this company's conduct began to grow. I called them and asked that they not force me to pay extra when the Angies List coupon had not been honored. I objected to the fact they were getting more money from me without honoring the coupon I purchased. I said I would be happy to pay the $150 after the Angies list coupon was honored. They would not consider my objections, and said that I had to pay the extra money. You would think that they would not blow a relationship over $150, but they did not seem to care, they wanted their $150 and that was the beginning and end of it, no flexibility whatsoever. Then my obections to this company spread to the fact that they took over 6 weeks to follow up with me to make an appointment for the trimming of the hedge, and the process of making that appointment has made my estimation of the company fall even farther. My initial appointment where I received the estimate was on September 18th. I did not hear back from them to make an appointment for the trimming of the hedge until after November 1st, and only after I objected to the fact they were forcing me to pay for one portion of the job before they honored the Angies list coupon. As it happened, I received one message, then a follow-up call from the office. The woman in the office intimated that the guy had called me several times, like I was not returning his call, but the truth is that I got one call, and it was on a date when I was having a medical procedure, and it was not a good time for me to be returning calls. The guy did call back again, and I spoke with him on the phone. He offered to "fit me in" the following day. He gave me less than 24 hours notice. When I said that I needed more notice since I work full time outside the house, he could not hide his annoyance. Then, when I said further that I wanted to be home when the work was done so that I could be comfortable that the hedge was being trimmed as I would like, he totally lost it. He was completely dismissive of my concerns, and told me that "everyone else" just meets them at the job in the morning, confer about what needs to be done, then they do their work and the owner does not need to be there. I mentioned that I felt I wanted to be there so that I can ensure that they don't cut too much or too little. Afterall, if they cut too much, there is not much one can do about it after the fact. The employee was completely dismissive of my desire to be present, and even insulting to me. He all but hung up on me. I use deals like this to find companies I can trust and engage over the long run. When I was discussing the fact I did not want to pay the $150 until I got the benefit of the Angies List coupon, I told this to the person at the company and she was not moved. I felt like long term relationships were not important to them. They just wanted the short term cash, and could care less about relationships.

Description of Work: Pruned the evergreen shrubs, rose bushes and a tree on my property. Beautifully done, all by hand, and cleaned up every scrap. I've had them before and have contracted with them for some work in the winter.

Description of Work: care for old and tired bushes

Description of Work: They pruned five trees

Description of Work: I've had a difficult time trying to find someone to cut a big limb down on my property. So I gave this company a call. He was busy and then took a week's vacation but always followed up...and was responsive with emails.

Description of Work: We had extensive tree pruning done throughout our property. Stefan came out and surveyed, and then returned with a crew. The work was done beautifulluy. The cost was a bit high, but the quality was too.
