“Columbus Tree Service came out to assess a couple of big oaks on our property that we weren't sure about keeping. The arborist spent almost an hour walking us through the health of each tree, showed us some disease spots we'd completely missed, and gave us honest advice about which ones were worth saving. Really appreciated that they didn't just try to sell us on removal, they actually cared about what was best for our land.”
Arborist Consultation
“Our hedges along the property line had gotten totally out of control, like 8 feet tall and scraggly. These guys shaped them up beautifully in one afternoon with a three-person crew. The cleanup was thorough, no branches left scattered everywhere like some companies do.”
Hedge Trimming & Shrub Care
“Had them come out to look at whether we should plant some new trees in our yard after we lost one to a storm. They gave us recommendations on species that would thrive in our soil and sun conditions, and honestly saved us from making some expensive mistakes. Worth every penny for the expert advice.”
Arborist Consultation
“We needed about a quarter acre cleared of brush and smaller trees to open up our backyard. Columbus Tree Service brought in equipment and a crew of four, and they had it done in two days. The site was left clean and ready to work with, they even chipped most of the debris on-site.”
Land Clearing
“That big dead pine in our front yard was starting to worry us, especially with it leaning toward the house. The crew showed up early, dropped it safely in sections, and had the whole thing gone by lunchtime. Professional from start to finish, and they made sure nothing else got damaged.”
Tree Removal
“Our maple was overgrown and blocking the view from our porch. After they trimmed it back, it looks so much healthier and the whole yard feels more open. They really knew what they were doing, didn't just hack at it, they shaped it properly.”
Tree Trimming & Pruning
“Wanted to plant a couple young trees but wasn't sure what would work in our yard. The consultation helped us pick the right species and placement, and they explained the care we'd need to give them. Great to have that confidence going in.”
Arborist Consultation
“After we had a tree removed last month, we called them back to grind out the stump. That thing was huge, at least 3 feet across, but they made quick work of it. The ground is level now and we can actually use that part of the yard again.”
