"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

In most cases, leaving tree roots underground is not a problem if the stump has been removed or ground below the soil. However, some larger roots may decompose, leaving dents in your soil. Additionally, some aggressive trees, including willows, oaks, elms, maples, and poplars may grow back from roots. Large aggressive trees with established root systems are more likely to grow back.

If a tree stump is removed properly, the chances of a tree growing back are low. However, if a tree has a robust root system, roots can sometimes sprout and someday grow into a tree. The chance of regrowth will depend on several factors such as the type of tree, soil quality, and strength of the root system. In general, it is not recommended to plant a tree where a stump was removed.

Often, it’s the homeowner’s responsibility to handle the aftermath when a neighbor’s tree falls on their property. But if a tree has been obviously dead for a significant period of time and caused damage when it fell, a case can be made that the owner should have removed it, especially if the neighbor wrote you a letter about the tree or asked you to take it down. This can be grounds for a successful lawsuit in claims court and is a good reason to always pay attention to your trees and remove dead trees before they fall.

Only trim palm trees as needed, which is usually about once per year. However, don't stick to that schedule if the palm tree doesn't need it. Avoid trimming palm trees when possible. It’s best to trim palm trees only when you notice a buildup of dead fronds. That said, leave the brown fronds during the dormant season because this organic matter helps protect the tree from the cooler weather.

Tree roots are hearty and complex systems, so they don’t die immediately after the rest of the tree is removed. If you leave the root system in place, it takes anywhere from two to seven years for it to run out of nutrients. It is worth noting, however, that the roots stop growing and expanding after cutting down the rest of the tree.
