Tree reviews in Jessup, Maryland

Great company! Very good price, showed up on time and removed the tree. Workers were so nice and professional.

The team was very responsive and professional. I would definitely use this company again for my tree trimming needs. Great job.

I was hesitant about using this firm because their price was two-thirds the next lowest estimate. I was very suprised. They arrived on time and did an excellent job. They did exactly what they said they would.Very happy.

The company was very professional and reasonably priced. They brought the right equipment to reach large trees without having to climb. Any accidental damage to an older fence was repaired. Would use again.

I needed to have 2 trees near my house, one spreading over my deck, removed and dead limbs removed from a large oak tree. They did a great job. Impressive to watch them throw the weighted line high into the oak tree for the various anchor lines.

Great service! I had a tree taken down in my back yard. The crew was thorough and efficient. Prices were very reasonable as well. I would highly recommend.

Mr. Shane and Forest Valley Tree & Turf company provided us EXCELLENT customer service and EXCELLENT work. They were easy to work with, wrote up the estimate, they were very knowledgeable on what work I needed done and his team performed the job with grace and cleaned up as well. We are so glad that we used Mr. Shane and Forest Valley Tree & Turf company to get our job done. We highly recommend Mr. Shane and Forest Valley Tree & Turf company. This is a true 5 star organization! Thank you again Mr. Shane and Forest Valley Tree & Turf team. The Pattersons

We had part of a tree come down on our floating deck and landed on the edge of our house with minimal damage. Needed someone right away and Charles came out. Was very pleased with the pricing, the professionalism, the punctuality and the politeness of our experience at every turn. Really couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We will definitely use them again and as I’m doing right here tell others all about them.

Got a fair estimate and scheduled the work, they came out sooner than expected due to a storm that hit the area. They completed the work quickly and left without any debris. I would hire them again, all employees were very nice and easy to work with.

Forest Valley Tree and Turf removed a very large oak tree and dead limbs from other large oaks on public property adjacent to my home. Their work is exemplary. The owner is friendly, courteous, and professional as is the entire crew. They performed the job under strenuous conditions given the very warm temperatures. Nonetheless, they were meticulous and extremely careful. Even though I was not the direct customer for this job, they took great care to protect my home and property while gaining access to the trees and performing the work. I would highly recommend this company.

We had a few trees removed, and the entire experience was outstanding from start to finish. Our foreman, Josh, was professional, efficient, and made sure everything was done exactly as we wanted. Communication from the company was fantastic, prompt, clear and reassuring every step of the way. The crew worked quickly, removed the trees safely, and took extra care to protect the surrounding area. When the work was done, they cleaned everything up so thoroughly you would never know heavy equipment had been in the yard. They truly went above and beyond to deliver exceptional service. Everything was perfect, and we couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, professional tree removal service.

Thank you for everything!

This company did an excellent work. Another tree company sent by the county did a lousy job. They left behind the termite infested trunk and never finished the job. So Forest Valley Tree came to my street to remove my neighbor’s tree trunk , and I asked them if it’s was possible for them to finish demolishing the trunk. The guy called his supervisor and he gave the okay… I was so happy,
I just want to give them my appreciation on an extremely, and excellent job they did… Keep up the good work..and a big THANKS to everyone involved….

I've used Columbia tree on three different occasions over the last year and a half to cut trees down. They were the lowest price and did a great job every time. They also did additional work outside of the original scope. Plan on using them again.

Update (after business response):
I never said that I had an issue or was frustrated with doing business your company, a small business. As I stated in my response to your tree referral email, my husband and his family have also been running a small business for years and I myself own a small business in the culinary industry so I totally understand the constraints when you have to do everything yourself as a small business owner. Kindly do not portray me as being against small businesses as I never said or expressed that. I am happy to do business with anyone (small, medium or big). How did you get the impression that I was not happy with your company when we discussed possible dates and you were to contact your guy to confirm that the work could be completed within a week as stated on estimate visit? Your tone and attitude changed towards me when I provided feedback. Your response below portrays me as an individual who has issues with working with a small business and I do not appreciate that.

Original Post:
We were super excited to work with CT&LS for tree trimming, cutting as well as redoing the bushes in our front yard. The consultation visit was amazing and was blown away at how knowledgeable they were and the recommendations for spruce up our backyard and the front of the house. I was given a few suggestions on what type of plants/bushes would be ideal for our home, especially to prevent deer damage in the upcoming fall seasons. We were given a proposal that met our needs and were ready to move forward. Being the negotiator that I am, I contacted the office the next day to inquire about any coupons or offers available for the services outlined in the proposal. It took over a week of back and forth, late in the evenings over phone calls and emails to get an answer from Lisa, who seemed to be the only person I could speak to in regards to move forward with CT&LS. We finally speak this evening over the phone and I start the conversation with saying that we are happy to move forward with them to get the work done. She confirms that there is a 10% coupon available for use which I responded was great! She also stated that no one would be available to come out and do the work until July 2nd or the 12th (cant remember precisely) contrary to what I was told (1 week). I also kindly and respectfully provided some feedback in terms of perhaps improving communication with prospective clients as I did not understand why I could only speak to someone in the evenings as I wanted to get the work started and was excited to go shopping at Meadows Farms as recommended by the guy who came by for the estimate. Lisa explained that they were a small family owned business, which had been operating for 30 years. I was impressed. She continued to add that she was a government worker and could only attend to calls/emails in the evening after work. She continues by adding that she would totally understand if we decided to move forward with someone else and I told her that my comments were not ill intended and didn't mean to offend her and that as I mentioned in the beginning of the call, we were happy to move forward with them. I think she took offense to my comments and added we could not be a good fit to do business with their company. She then proceeded to hang up the phone on me. This literally just happened about 15 minutes ago and I am still in shock. I did not mean to offend anyone at CT&LS and was just providing some feedback based on my experience with them so far. After she explained why it was so, it all made sense. And she also provided more information on who could possibly get it done within 1 week and would reach out to him for further information. I do not understand how the call ended with Lisa with CT&LS, hanging up the phone on me when I was very pleased with the consultation visit and excited for them to assist with our little project. Again, I am still in shock that Lisa hung up the phone on me.

I used Columbia Tree & Lawn Service for the first time 2 weeks ago. The crew arrived on time and did a superior job trimming all trees and shrubs. They worked continuously until everything was done and were extremely courteous.

I've been using Chuck for 8 years to drop trees and grind stumps. He always comes out the Saturday right after we call to give a free estimate. He shows up with his crew on the appointed time and does exactly what he quotes to you. I find his prices to be fair for the work that he does. He's always on-site when the work is being done too. I've recommended him to friends of ours, and he's my first and only call when I need tree services. As a side note, he might be one of the funniest dudes I've ever met.

Chuck did an excellent job on our bamboo removal and remediation. Him and his crew were very thorough and professional, highly efficient with minimal impact to surrounding plants. Thanks again 👍

A storm brought down one of our 50+ foot pines into our neighbors yard and, 24 hours later, David and his crew had made it disappear. This is the second time we’ve used Columbia Tree and Lawn and have been very happy each time. They do what they promise, don’t over charge and are very professional.

Chuck and his crew did an amazing job clearing trees, brush and grinding over 20 stumps in our yard. They arrived on time, were very hard working and took care with all aspects of the job. They filled all the holes with topsoil, seeded and covered with straw. Would highly recommend using this local family run business.

I called Chuck in a panic after several large branches from an extremely overgrown Pinetree slammed into the roof right above where my son was sleeping. He quickly arrive to my house even in sanely fair estimate and within just a few hours the deathtrap pine tree has been taken down. His group worked so clean and so, did I mention it was freezing rain the entire time? I really hope my community continues to use chalk in the future as his work was exceptional and his customer service was even better!

We hired these guys for a huge bamboo removal job consisting of 11 years of overgrowth that came from a nearby neighbor's yard. I battled this stuff for 11 years and had no freaking clue how badly I was losing until Chuck came in with his machinery and started pulling up all the massive roots of this devil plant. These guys are amazing, they made quick work of our yard, including the root removal and hand digging some of the roots up, even the ones that had spread into our front yard, they installed bamboo barrier so it will never return, replaced all the dirt in our yard and seeded, fertilized, and strawed it; and they managed to do all this in a week. It is incredible to look out my window to an actual yard and not a bamboo forest. I would definitely recommend these guys to anyone and will be calling them for any other yard work I need. They also beat the competitors pricing by a grand, and I am pretty sure they did not have as solid of a plan as Chuck, and they probably would've given up at some points in the job when it became more of an archeological dig and less of bamboo removal. Seriously these guys are the best!
