Adam Elliott is an ISA Certified Arborist who offers services such as large tree removal, tree pruning, stump grinding, tree cabling, fertilization, hazard assessments and much more! ACE Tree owns 38 ton crane for safe and efficient tree removal.

"I was a longtime and happy Ace customer. I agreed to pay $700 for having a limb cut down, cut up and all of the wood debris hauled away. That was our agreement. They cut the limb down. In the process, they busted my retaining wall and flower box/garden. It was discovered that a wasp nest had been disturbed and we were instructed to get them taken care of, then they would be back to finish the job and repair the retaining wall. We had the wasps taken care of the next day and called Ace Tree Service to let them know that we were ready for them to come back. We had numerous conversations and exchanged emails. There were many instances when we were told that someone was coming but nobody ever showed up. The large limb was left in the yard. I cut it up and hauled it away myself. I repaired the wall myself. I gave them multiple opportunities to come out and finish the job, but after several attempts and promises of “we’ll get someone other this week” I gave up and did myself. This was done back in July. I didn’t hear anything from Ace Tree for 3 months, but then suddenly they started hounding me for a “past due” invoice for a job they never completed."

"This company required a deposit to procure materials prior to start date. They contacted me less than one week from when work was to be completed and told me they had labor issues, scheduling delays etc. and would not be able to begin or complete the project as agreed. We mutually agreed to return the deposit via U.S. Postal Service. Two different times were mutually agreed when "K" was to bring me my deposit. Again, "K" did not show-up. They do not return email correspondence or answer phone calls. I filed a complaint with BBB and Earthscapes did not respond to the BBB. I have no choice but to pursue legal action. I do not recommend this company whatsoever."

"Excellent. I had called several landscapers and Marshall Lawncare was the only landscaper to call me back. David came out and discussed with Sandra and I what we would like to have done. I was waiting on the installer of the pool to finish, but David said they could work around that. Actually he completed what the pool installer didn’t do. They were here on time, professional, and courteous. I am 100% satisfied with the work they did."

Lawn Fertilization and Treatment questions, answered by experts

It’s not required, but it is helpful if your goal is to produce new growth. Any fertilization should occur after the lawn is aerated and before the compost is applied. If you also plan to spread seed, you’ll want to do so after the fertilizer is applied and once the ground is damp, but not wet.

The best time to fight crabgrass with pre-emergent herbicide is when forsythias tend to bloom. In the mid-Atlantic region, this is usually between April and May. Even if you're late to apply the herbicide, it’s effective as long as the crabgrass plant has fewer than five leaves.

If you use a starter fertilizer designed for this purpose, you can overseed and fertilize at the same time. If you opt to use a fertilizer for established grass or one with a weed control component, it's best to wait at least four to eight weeks after seed application to allow the new grass to take hold and establish itself. 

Bermuda grass may be drought-resistant, but it still needs to be watered once or twice a week. The suggested amount of water Bermuda grass needs varies from season to season. Bermuda grass needs about 1 inch of water a week in summer, fall, and winter; it needs up to ¾ inch in spring.

If you apply too much fertilizer to your grass, it can take about three weeks to recover. If you still have dead patches after three weeks, it might be time to remove the dead grass and overseed the affected area. Since overfertilizing can also cause problems with fungus, leading to further damage to the grass, monitor your grass color and growth for one month after over fertilizing.
