"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"

"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."

"Fantastic! They did a great job of reshaping the tree and removing limbs that were growing towards our home. They also cabled limbs that were needing extra support and they thinned our tree to make it less resistant to high winds. We are so proud of the work they did and the cleanup they provided was superb too! We are very satisfied customers!"

"Juan and his crew are awesome! I highly recommend them for all of your landscaping needs. Juan and I reviewed what services I needed done, gave a fair quote compared to other quotes I received. I was able to get it scheduled the following week. He and the crew showed up on time in the morning and worked all day. My back yard was a mess and over grown. They cleaned out all of my beds, weeded, trimmed bushes, removed dead plants, transplanted some Hostas and mulched. In the 5 years I have been here it hasn’t looked this nice! Thanks Juan and crew, see you in the fall for leaf removal and the fall clean up! So glad to find a great landscaping company."

"Have been a customer for several years doing both spring and fall clean up and some planting. They show up when they say and do excellent work at a reasonable cost. The job is not finished until Victor is sure you are satisfied with the work. I would recommend them to my friends and anyone looking for this type service."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Yes, it’s okay to trim low branches on a tree, also known as limbing up or raising the crown. Essentially, you’ll trim the lower third of the tree (trunk) and leave the upper two-thirds of the tree (crown). Arborists recommend trimming 20% of a tree’s leaves per season for two to three seasons. Trimming low branches allows light to flow through the tree, increasing circulation and making the tree stronger and healthier.

No. Topping a tree refers to severely cutting down all its major branches and tree in a straight line. It was once recommended for streetside deciduous trees but has fallen out of practice. Topping leads to many problems, removing so much of the tree that many trees struggle to survive and become much more vulnerable to insects and diseases. Also, it doesn’t really help tree growth as once assumed and often leads to an ugly appearance of many sprouting stems in competition to become new main branches.

Most trees can be successfully transplanted while they are young, but pines, walnuts, and some oak tree varieties are more difficult to move because their root systems grow deeper than most other trees. Also, trees adapted to sandy soil with wide root systems like beeches, willows, and aspens are harder to dig out because their roots spread much farther out from the trunk. In these cases, unless the trees are very young and small, it’s a good idea to consult a tree planting professional.

You can trim just one side of the tree, especially when that side is growing near something like a power line or a home. Pros will carefully trim the tree back until it is safe from that structure. While this is common, it also needs to be done with the utmost care, as pruning or trimming away at one side of the tree may make it structurally unsound. This instance is yet another where hiring a pro is wise, especially if power lines are involved.

If it’s only a smaller branch that has died and you’re keeping an eye on the tree, it’s probably nothing to worry about. But if other nearby branches start dying off as well, or a very large branch dies, then you likely have a bigger problem. It’s time to watch for diseases and other problems and possibly get professional guidance on how to proceed.
