I contacted Aspen Tree Service as I had some trees that looked overgrown and not super attractive. I was greeted over the phone by a very friendly lady who was helpful and quickly made me an appointment with "The Tree Guy" Shawn McPhee. He showed up ON TIME for his appointment with me and took his time to walk my property and answer any and all questions that I had. I never felt rushed or like a question I was asking was dumb. The office then set up my appointment for a future date that worked for me. The crew showed up promptly on said date and was friendly, and professional and all of them super

"Total pros, took care of my clients in Whitewood and got rid of a pile of old wood, clients were completely satisfied. Clients also changed their minds a few times on what they wanted to do, and Lightscapes didn't waiver one bit on the directions the job went, plus everything was always verified with a phone call. Communication was exemplary. Thank you so much, will definitely be referring you in the the future."

We just had 8 to 9 trees trimmed and cut back and one tree completely removed from our yard. Aspen tree service did a great job and I would highly recommend them. The whole team was professional, courteous and thorough.

Steamboat Lightscapes checks ALL the boxes: professional, knowledgeable, courteous, attentive to detail and great communicators. From my first conversation with Dustin to the thoughtful and creative installation of lights by the production staff, we have been delighted and impressed. The process is smooth from start to finish and I especially appreciate Patricia and her timely communication and responses to my questions and concerns. Many thanks also to Marek; we are thrilled each and every evening to see our property light up. Our neighbors enjoy it too!

Unaware of Steamboat Lightscapes (our bad), we contracted with Western Tree Mgmt. to handle an extensive job consisting of fire mitigation, tree removal, tree trimming and stump grinding. After confirming at 9 AM the day before start, I received a call from Western at 3 PM to let us know they had just taken a large tree removal project and would not be able to start the following day as committed pushing us out to an indeterminate start date. A respected contractor referred us to Steamboat Lightscapes who were not only able to fit us in their schedule two weeks later but also performed with the

This is the second year that I have used Light scapes and the results are amazing. They are very professional, the lights are awesome and its hassle free. They take care of setting timers, running wires and extensions and all I have to do is look at my lights every night and enjoy. I asked for a special lighted star to go above my barn to honor my son who died and they searched and found one, installed it, and it looks awesome. a great tribute. Thank you. You get what you pay for in life and especially here.
