"Affordably priced, very timely, and very thorough. I had a cluster (9 or 10) of Maple stumps located on a mound covered with rocks and roots, which I believed to be a very challenging job. I was glad I sought out Home Advisor and selected Stump n' Grind from the recommended list they provided. This is about the third or fourth third time I sought Home Advisor for their recommendations. I am highly satisfied with the people and businesses they recommended. I have told others that Home Advisor is a trusted source for seeking professionals for jobs around their house."

"I am very happy with the work the Marquis team did for me. Three people; one is a woman. I applaud hiring women for this type of work; thank you, Marquis. They did exactly what I wanted done; the correct amount of trimming of big branches to open up more light on my deck and stop leaves and birds from making a mess throughout the year. I did not have to tell the crew what to do; they are the professionals and did a great job. I will be recommending Marquis to others; their quote came in much lower than other arborists; and I was very pleased with the result. GOOD value. Good cleanup."

"I would highly recommend services by this company. Mario and his team are highly efficient- getting started early and on time and they work hard! Watching them do their thing is like watching a well oiled machine. They cut down all the trees I wanted and executed it in a safe and controlled manner. They also inspected some other trees and advised whether to keep or not. The area was cleaned up after the job and I would definitely hire them again. Great pricing too! I had about 14 trees removed."

"When Brian arrived with his crew and heavy duty equipment I was very impressed. I was concerned about the utility lines going through this large tree they were going to remove, Brian assured me he would be able to work around them. They left my property the same way it was before he started the job. Brian and his crew were fantastic, they did a awesome job. Brian even called after the job was completed to be sure I was satisfied with the work. I would highly recommend them for any tree services needed and I will call them in the future."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Maple trees start the growing season by developing small groups of red flowers where the tree's fruit, the samaras, will appear in the coming weeks. Later in spring, the samaras, which many call whirlybirds or similar names, develop into single-winged seed carriers that spin when falling or drifting in the wind. 

Leaving a dead tree can expose your other trees to potential diseases, pests, and fungi, and it can also be a hazard. If your tree is dead, then you should hire a tree maintenance service to remove it. Cutting down trees is extremely dangerous, and a professional can ensure no one gets hurt and there is no damage to your property. Tree removal costs between $200 and $2,000 and will prevent future issues and keep you and your property safe.

To maintain trees on a commercial property, perform regular pruning, monitor for diseases, and apply fertilization to promote healthy growth. It is also important to remove any hazardous branches to keep the trees healthy and prevent potential liability issues.

A tree growing close to a house can pose several risks, but removal isn't always the only or best solution. Potential problems include roots growing into the foundation and causing structural cracks, branches damaging the roof or promoting moss growth, and debris clogging gutters, which can lead to water damage. Trees can also provide access for pests and encourage mold. However, a small, healthy tree may not be a problem, and for larger, established trees, strategic trimming can be a cheaper and more beneficial alternative to removal. It is generally recommended to take action for trees within 10 to 20 feet of your home, especially if they are unhealthy or encroaching. Your best bet is to consult a professional arborist who can assess the specific situation and provide expert advice.

If you don’t cut down a dead, dying, or diseased tree, it can become a nesting place for pests like mosquitos, bees, beetles, wasps, fly larvae, and more. Some pests will live in the tree, while others will feed off the decaying wood. Unhealthy trees are also more likely to fall over, potentially injuring people and causing damage to your property.
