Report
We've used Saar's Tree Service several times in the last few years, and I'm always impressed most by the effort they put into cleaning up. Last week we had them remove a very large white pine that exceeded the max height of their bucket truck by maybe 15', which was right beside our house surrounded at the base by river rock. When they were done, you would never know the tree had been there. They had moved river rocks by hand to blow out all the sawdust and then distributed them evenly back over the 3' diameter stump area. They cleaned sawdust off the house roof and blew out the gutters even though

The crew did a wonderful job removing 30 trees with the stumps from my property. They did it efficiently and professionally. The yard looked great after the job was completed. I will use them in the future and always recommend to my friends.

Saar's tree service did a great job trimming our trees and explaining a few things about a tree that needed some extra attention! Clean up was very professional after completion of the job! We would definitely recommend their services!
