"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 called Arborite for a variety of concerns with trees on our property. The Arborist was at the house within an hour. He walked the property with me, listened to my concerns and told me how he could fix the problems. Within two days the Arborite team arrived promptly as scheduled to remove or trim the problem trees per contract. The team is focused, organized and works quickly, but were considerate of the property. I found the Arborist knowledgeable, willing to answer questions and intuitive. They cleaned up the areas well and hauled all the debris off! The estimate was right on the nose. The property looks much better but more importantly is safe."

"Professional from start to finish. Amber reached me by phone to arrange an estimate. She arrived within 2 hours and thoroughly explained pricing, what was required and how the job would be handled. We agreed to the terms and within 3 hours they were onsite removing the damaged tree. The job was quick, staff professional, and clean up was great. They even removed a 6 foot shrub at no additional charge. They also have a senior discount which is very helpful. First contact to the job completed, was less than 9 hours. I will use again and highly 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."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

The best time to cut down a tree is during its dormant season, typically in winter or early spring, after all the leaves have fallen. Removing a tree during this period is advantageous for several reasons. Frozen ground helps secure the tree stump, protects the surrounding landscape from damage, and reduces the risk of the tree falling in an unintended direction. With the leaves gone, there is less risk of the tree's foliage getting tangled with other trees. Additionally, since this is often a slower season for tree services, you may be able to hire a professional at a lower rate. This dormant period is also the best time for tree trimming.

The felling notch you make before you make the final cut will determine which way the tree will fall. The cut will be in a wedge or triangle, and the tree will fall from the highest point of the triangle. You can use this, as well as the process described above, to estimate where a tree will fall. 

It is possible to cut down a tree on your property yourself, but it is generally not recommended unless specific conditions are met. You should only consider this project if the tree is small (e.g., under 4-5 inches in diameter and short enough that you don't need a ladder to reach the branches), and you are experienced in handling a chainsaw. The tree must also be located far from any power lines, fences, homes, or other structures. Even for small trees, the work can be dangerous, and it's always advisable to have a spotter to ensure the tree falls correctly and no branches fall on you.

For any tree that is large, requires a ladder to access, or is near electrical lines or structures, you should always hire a professional. Attempting to remove a large tree yourself is extremely dangerous, poses a risk of serious injury, and could result in significant damage to your property.

Before any tree removal, it's also important to check your local and state regulations to ensure the tree is not historic or otherwise protected by your city.

It depends on the problem, the affected part of the tree, the risk of the pathogen spreading, and the overall health of your tree. Many diseases, fungal infections, and insect infestations can be successfully treated, especially if the issue is only in a few branches. However, if a disease is too widespread, too severe, too easily spread, or in the roots, the tree will likely need to be removed.

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.
