"I have priced between 3 Angie's List's recommended arborists, and found Grant's to be the best value for the job sought. One company was unable to do stump grinding, while the third company was twice as much. His crew were professionally trained, and was able to complete the job the same day in two hours flat. The reason being was due to having the best equipment on hand including a cherry-picker, a grinder truck, and appropriate power tools. Their cleanup was equally as amazing, as they cleaned up as they went along the task and it was as if they never came. The pile of chips left from the stump grinding was the only clue that they were even there! I would hire them in a heartbeat. Daniel M. Grove City, OH"

"I had a river birch tree cut down today. Jorge is very professional and a pleasure to work with. The price was very good and my yard was totally cleaned up after their work. I would recommend this company to anyone that needs tree work. Thank you so much for an excellent job."

"Working with Arborite Tree Care was simple and painless. In less than 24 hours they provided a certificate of liability insurance with our homeowners listed as the certificate holder. Arborite Tree Care team are true professionals they cut down 3 trees and removed the stumps working in less than a day. These trees were extremely close to my lanai and hedges, and they were able to easy circumnavigate both. If you are getting your trees removed getting a quote from Arborite Tree Care is must. You will not be disappointed."

"When I called for a quote, he came within a day. Being very busy, I was told it might even be 6 weeks. They called me last night and said they could do it this morning at 8. So that was only a week. They were prompt, courteous, knowledgeable and fast. The arborist also told me that the tree did not need cabling which saved me some money! We also discussed what I will do in the future. They cleaned up the yard upon completion. I will use them again!"

"Maplewood was great to work with. They were very responsive when I inquired for a quote, was upfront and honest about the work and the cost. Unlike other tree service companies that we've interacted with, they worked with us on our specific request for the tree we need serviced and understood our need to keep some of the wood (when other companies we've worked in the past pushed a "all-service or nothing" approach). Would definitely recommend."

"Hoffman’s crew did an excellent job. They took down 2 huge maples in 2 days (one was in our small front yard, very close to our house) and cleaned up everything afterwards. The price was very fair and we would hire them again. They are very professional and friendly."

"Amber was very friendly and helpful. She quoted me to drop a tree in a tricky spot and I'd clean up and keep the wood. We agreed they would cut pieces down to about three feet. The original day they were scheduled got delayed due to rain, they attempted to top the tree the next day with guy that was pretty green.. and rescheduled again due to winds . The third day they brought an expert and he topped the tree quickly. They did cut up some of the brush but left very large pieces including an 8 ft by 3 ft trunk. When I asked to cut it smaller, they said they wont cut it unless they are hauling it away. Overall I'm happy with the service but it was a bit more clean up than I expected. I would use them again."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

In Columbus, the humid continental climate means tree trimming and pruning are best scheduled for late winter or early spring to avoid disease spread. Heavy clay soil often leads to drainage issues, making stump grinding or tree removal challenging after heavy rain. Summer storms can cause sudden limb breakage, so emergency tree removal is common. Winter ice can also create hazardous conditions requiring prompt attention.

Helpful?

In Columbus, be cautious of tree service quotes that lack itemized details for tasks like tree trimming or stump grinding. Avoid companies unwilling to show proof of insurance or those without certified arborists. Watch for vague timelines, poor communication, or reluctance to provide local references. If a contractor skips cleanup details or pressures you for immediate payment, consider it a warning sign.

Helpful?

Before starting tree service in Columbus, check if your neighborhood has restrictions on removing mature trees or specific species. Mark underground utilities and verify property boundaries to prevent accidental damage. Take photos of the work area for documentation, and discuss access routes for equipment, especially if your yard is prone to muddy conditions. Notify neighbors in advance to minimize disruptions and address any concerns.

Helpful?

When hiring for tree service in Columbus, prioritize companies with certified arborists familiar with local species like buckeye and maple. Ensure they carry proper insurance and have experience handling storm-damaged trees. Ask about their approach to root systems in clay soil and confirm they follow city regulations for tree removal. Reliable communication and a clear cleanup plan are also essential for a smooth project.

Helpful?

Columbus has a variety of tree service contractors, including full-service tree care companies with certified arborists, specialists in tree trimming and stump grinding, and crews focused on emergency tree removal after storms. Some contractors also offer disease diagnosis for common local issues like oak wilt. Landscape companies may provide basic tree care, while utility-focused teams handle trees near power lines.
