Subpar planting skills, didn't water in, no mulch, no metal border around tree. Will NOT stand behind their work, since they will not honor 1 year replacement guarantee clearly noted on their website! Do not use them!
Response from Mountain High/SavATree - Colorado Springs
"We do stand behind our work as well as educate our clients on how to properly care for their trees after installation, including how to monitor watering as not to over or under water the tree(s). The crew planted to industry standards. Both holes for each of the 2 trees planted, were heavy clay soils and full of moisture. Thus, the crew choose not to water as not suffocate the new root balls, since the trees are in an irrigated turf area. The mulch was added at a subsequent visit (different crew). We also explained at the initial visit that we do not install metal borders. We have reached out to the client and have stopped by several times to make things right and discuss his concerns with no response."

The workers that come do the hard work are great. Communication from start to finish was poor. The estimate took a week via email, when I replied that same day I said yes, and it took a week for that reply. When I call i'm told they are 4 weeks out, so a total of 6 weeks. I wasn't happy and was told nothing she can do, no apologies at all. After the weekend went by I was called by someone else and said they could get in within the week, then I got called again saying that it wasn't verified by a gentlemen who was short on the phone and said now I'm calling to verify, even though I already varified a time and day with a lady. I feel bad for the workers who are doing the main labor. Our family has lived in the Old North End for over a decade using this company, but will not any more. Looks like the merge with Bedford Hills NY brought on way of doing things. Too bad.

They were efficient, careful and extremely polite. They left my yard in better shape than when they arrived!

They did an excellent job and were done quickly so my neighbors would not be blocked in their driveway.

Fantastic job. The area where the tree came out was cleaner than when they found it.

Becky Wegner's visit to provide estimate was cordial and very informative.  Dan called to alert us to the date of spraying of trees which he accomplished well.  Thanks for the card in the mail that alerted us to the problem.

Removed all shrubs and grounded the stumps.   Did not cleanup well.   Left behind wood chips from grinding stumps.  I examined the house and the windows where the shrubs were located after they were removed.  No damage was found.  On the second trip to my property when they grinded the stumps, the screen frame of one of my windows was bent/punched in.  I called and left a message informing them of what I found.  A few hours later when I checked my voice mail, there was a message indicating they did not damage my screen.  I called Al back to let him know that he was incorrect.   He tried to indicate that maybe some children had did it.  I told him "No", that was not the case.  After realizing he was not going to take responsibility, I told him never mind, I would take care of it myself and goodbye.   The next day was Saturday and I heard my door bell ring.  By the time I got to the door, there was noone there but I heard a noise and went out on my porch.  There was a guy at my window taking down my screen.   I said "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!!"  I was about to call the police.  But he quickly stated Al texted him to come over and fix the screen.  I told him that I had told Al that I was going to take care of it and he did not have my permission to do anything or be on my property.  Since he had the screen almost off, he flipped the screen and when he tried to snap it back in, a piece of the white border frame broke off.  When he left, I called the company and left them two voice mails that I did not appreciate them sending someone to my property without my permission and to stay off my property.  Just send me my bill.
Response from Mountain High/SavATree - Colorado Springs
"Dear [Member Name Removed], Sorry for any inconvenience or misunderstanding. What I had told you on the phone, was that I would check with Chris(who ground out the stumps) and then would come out to rectify the screen damage. Chris came out the following day, rang the door bell, had a discussion with you about the screen, then proceeded to correct the damage that we did not cause. The junipers were growing through the screen causing the damage, therefore we did not cause the damage by removing them or grinding the stumps. During our stump grinding, we clean the excess grindings then mound it, as it will settle over time. Sorry if you thought it was messy, it is the industry standard. Sincerely, Branch Manager, Mountain High Tree Care Al Wegner"

Response from Mountain High/SavATree - Colorado Springs
"Dear [Member Name Removed], I'm sorry for any inconvenience or misunderstanding. After we had spoke, I called Colorado Springs Utilities and discussed your situation. I told them what we had done and they were shocked that a sewer line was only 15" below grade and that your neighbors sewer line crossed on to your property. I then called you and left you a voice mail regarding this, and Waste Water's phone number. I'm assuming you never contacted them, because C/S Utilities would have taken care of it, if it was there sewer line. Being so shallow, they questioned the line not being to code and being the responsibility of the homeowner who installed it. I wish you would have followed up with me 7-8 months ago as I assumed you had spoken with C/S Utilities. Minimally, you or the neighbors Homeowners Insurance should have covered all of it, less your deductible. Again, I'm sorry for any inconvenience. Sincerely, Al Wegner Branch Manager-Mountain High Tree Care"

The worked performed looks great.
Asked to have vines and two aspens removed, the worked performed wasn't the work asked for.  I have vines that are completely overtaking several 12 foot bushes.  The estimator didn't want me at the house while he looked at the house which made me uneasy because I wanted clear communication.  Somehow he completely missed the vines and quoted me for tree maintenance.  When we talked about it further he agreed to look at the property again.  Once he looked at it a second time he wanted to talk my ear off and argued with me.  I lost my patience because I couldn't get him to listen to me and I told him to "do whatever he wants", which isn't what I wanted him to do.  The worked performed looks great.  They also smashed their vehicle into my steel mail box and steel post which they didn't mention, it's bent over and will need to be replaced.  Just replaced that  box and post two months ago as I'm preparing my house for sale.  Based on the estimator and damaged property I wouldn't ever hire them again.
Response from Mountain High/SavATree - Colorado Springs
"I had followed up with [Member Name Removed] numerous times after his initial request and even went back out to verify what he wanted. He was trying to stage his house to sell, a unmaintained landscape at best. There where several dead aspen and several diseased aspen that needed to be removed and pruned, etc. Wades other concern was a clematis vine that was growing throughout his evergreens in the back originating from the cities right of way. I had informed him that it would be very costly to mitigate this vine and we typically never do this type of work and to contact the city. [Member Name Removed] was suppose to retract his comment regarding the mailbox back on October 28th, when I spoke with him regarding that we were not responsible for the damage to his mailbox (documented pictures showing the height the damage vs the height of our truck/chipper which was much lower). Sorry for any inconvenience-Management at Mountain High Tree Care"

We have been using them repeatedly and I am very satisfied with them. I have used them for deep water in February and then I had them spray two or three times during the growing season to prevent insects and then I have them do trimming on the big tree that I can't reach myself and then take out trees that unfortunately died and the reason that I keep using them is they are very experienced and knowledgeable, reasonably priced compared to some other companies in town. They are excellent on everything. I certainly would use them again in the future.
