This was SUCH a better experience than my last guys. Before: "Can you please be careful of the rock wall/other vegetation?" Result: Broken rock wall, smashed adjacent plants. Before: "How low can you leave the stumps? Nearly flush? Great. Result: 6" tripping hazards everywhere for an eternity. Before: "You guys clean up, right?" "Oh yeh, of course we do." Result: Twigs, small branches, leaves, sawdust left for me. Jim not only did everything he said he would, he did it especially well, and for a very fair price. Wood big enough to be used as firewood was left neatly stacked where I asked, all other evidence of tree removal was non-existent. A particularly gnarly aspen which had grown THROUGH the thick of an adjacent spruce was surgically cut down piece by piece leaving the spruce unscathed. All stumps were cut actually a bit BELOW grade, Jim having taken the extra effort to scrape away enough dirt around each circumference to be able to do that. But the most impressive "extra mile" was Jim's work to help me get a 29" diameter cottonwood stump as far below grade as possible so I could maybe use the same hole to plant a new tree. I did the digging to allow him access with one of his chainsaws with an old blade, which needed re-sharpening several times in the effort to get through. Ultimately, with a lot of work, we got it down to 22" BELOW grade. All around this was a totally positive experience. Jim showed up on time, did an impeccably excellent job in inclement weather, and was cheerful about doing anything I asked that could be considered "extra" by others doing this kind of job. read more

From the moment I called Jim for an estimate, I knew he was going to be the guy to take care of our trees. He's responsive, friendly and very knowledgeable - not to mention more passionate about trees than anyone I've met. I thought I knew what I wanted done to my trees but he made a few recommendations that would be better for the longevity of them and helped us understand why. He has also given us invaluable advice about our landscaping plans, mostly about which fruit trees would do best in our yard and how to best care for them. I will absolutely be calling Jim for future tree work and would highly recommend anyone in the Salt Lake Valley and/or Park City area to do the same. read more

Jim did an amazing job taking care of my fruit trees and advising on thier care. He rarely pulls out his chainsaw and does most of his work by hand. His ecperience as an aborist spans many years and to hear his stories working in the redwoods in california are quite amazing. He is respectful of other plants at the base of the trees making sure they are protected while he works. He doesnt smoke while he works like lots of crews in the valley and is great with dogs! I would highly reccomend him for any job big or small. read more

Jim is the owner of this company. He is very friendly and professional. He did an amazing job climbing in my large shade trees around my house. He safety removed large branches that were touching my roof without any damage to my yard or house. I was really impressed. He also has a eye for removing just right branches and making the trees look neat and natural. He left my yard very clean. I will be using High Mountain Tree Care again! read more

Jim pruned our peach trees a few months ago and they look lovely and now have more fruit than the last few years! I can't believe how much Better they look. His bid was on par with the people we had the last few years but he worked way more hours and even cleaned up everything. Definitely recommend! read more
