"Excellent work. The crew arrived on time and first took down a dead tree near our driveway and house. One worker climbed the tree and carefully took off branches and then dropped the tree into the woods. Then they went to work on another tree that had branches reaching out toward our house. All taken down safely and efficiently and they cleaned up when they were done. I'd definitely hire them again."

"We hired SavATree several years ago to assess our dying maple trees. They recommended a treatment plan and literally saved our trees from being cut down. The trees are treated quarterly and are thriving. We recently hired SavATree to trim all of our trees (4 large maples and 5 large crepe myrtles). They did an EXCELLENT job and I cannot praise the arborist and team highly enough. Polite, professional, communicate very well, very neat - nice trucks with the latest equipment, great uniforms. Shout out to Kevin Garone and his team. We will never use any other company. We are highly satisfied customers. SavATree is the BEST."

"Rick returned our calls promptly and gave us a fair quote for services. Baumann's does not overcharge or upsell. Once we settled on Baumann's Landscaping as our contractor, we called Rick and the crew were out the next morning promptly at 9am. We were expecting two days of work to clear the brush, but they completed the job in 4 hours. The crew went above and beyond, killing vines choking our trees, mulching all the deadfall, and pushing the brush line all the way back beyond the trees (we live on Maryland wetlands). Fast, prompt, great job. Would absolutely hire again. A++."

"When they did the edges, I didn’t want them to put the bricks there. I wanted them to put a trench to separate where the grass started and the flower bed. I asked them to do it because I wanted it to look more professional and not like something crazy I did that wasn’t straight. It looks very crooked like something I would have done. The front they did well. I told him and he came back out and let him off the hook. He acknowledgeable that he could have done a better job. They didn’t’ put the extensions on the down spout far enough. So now I need to re-dig and make them lower or add more top soil above. They didn’t do a professional job as I would have liked. They were supposed to spray and a couple of days later I noticed that none of the vegetation was dying. I called back and they acknowledge it and came back out. They were responsive.    I tried to use them again but they were not responsive."

"We purchased our house three years ago and I’ve been struggling to improve the lawn from day one. I know It’s time for an intervention, but I don’t want a ton of chemicals and I hate pushy salespeople (looking at you TG), so I procrastinated getting help. Enter Mark from American Lawn and Tree Specialist. He’s been responsive, informative, and a true pleasure to deal with while I navigate my options. It’s going to take time to get my lawn healthy, but I’m confident that this company is the one who will get it there. I’ve been so impressed, that I may just switch our landscaping contract over to this company as well."

"The providers tree crew arrived promptly, and set to bringing down a 120' tree w/out damaging the yard or surrounding wall.  They did this w/amazing accuracy and professionalism.  They pruned all the other trees and shrubs per our request and when the large poplar tree was on the ground we could see first hand the damage that had already occurred in the tree and was simply waiting for a big wind to topple over this giant.  There was no outward evidence that we could see but Ferris Crilly (owner) recognized the problem of dual trunk, poplar tree.  Had this tree not come down under his crew's care it would have fallen at some point on either our house or crashed over our road.  This tree was rotten down to the bottom of the trunk and we didn't have a clue there was any problem.   The rest of the work was completed to our complete satisfaction.  The team cleaned up our yard and driveway of all debris including saw dust from the chain saw chopping up the tree trunk. They left our property in as good as, or better condition than they found it before they began their work.   Pro Arbor will be our tree professionals for any future needs.   They KNOW what to do, and how to do it safely, and with care to protect the surrounding landscaping and property.  We rate them at A++.

"Normal termite/pest inspection but the inspector was very knowledgeable and friendly. He did not try to up-sale me or make me feel I had to have their additional services. If I do buy additional services in the future it will be through them."

FAQs for trees & shrubs treat, protect and maintain projects in Kensington, MD

A tree doctor or tree surgeon is another term for an arborist. The term is more common in places like the United Kingdom. They are professionals trained to plant, care for, maintain, diagnose, and remove trees of all kinds. Tree doctors have specialized knowledge to ensure the health and safety of trees.

Arborists are tree care specialists who plan, maintain, and enhance the health of trees with expert precision. They prune, diagnose diseases, treat pest infestations, remove hazardous limbs, and manage debris cleanup while developing comprehensive landscaping plans. They also handle tree planting and work with landscape professionals to ensure long-term tree vitality and safety.

Consulting arborists are tree experts who can advise homeowners and business owners on the right trees to plant, how to care for existing trees, and what to do about trees that appear to be sick or pose a safety threat. A consulting arborist may work with local landscape architects, investment property owners, city governments, developers, and other arborists.

An arborist may be able to save a dying tree. If you notice that your tree suddenly appears to be sick or is exhibiting unusual behavior, contact an arborist immediately. They will thoroughly inspect the tree to determine what might be wrong with it—and will let you know if it’s possible to save the tree and how to do it.

Verifying an arborist’s credentials is crucial for reliable tree care. Arborists must be licensed by their state and hold certifications from reputable organizations such as the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA). Request proof of licensing and certification, and review local recommendations to ensure you are hiring a professional who meets high industry standards and adheres to strict safety protocols.
