Joshua Tree Experts in Delaware, OH
Tree Service, Lawn Care & Pest Control Services
Delaware mixes an older downtown canopy with wooded, semi-rural lots to the north. The big mature trees on that clay ground are the ones that fail when straight-line winds come through. Out on the larger lots, a failure can go unnoticed for weeks until it's a real hazard.
That's where we come in. Joshua Tree Experts in Delaware handles the trimming, removals, feeding, and storm cleanup that keep your trees safe and your yard looking cared for.
No upselling and no shortcuts, just work we'd be comfortable doing on our own street.

Keeping Delaware Yards Healthy
A healthy yard starts with healthy trees, and in Delaware that means staying ahead of storm damage, decay, and the pests that move in when a tree is stressed.
ISA-Certified Tree Services
Our ISA-Certified Arborists cover the full range of Delaware tree services, from structural pruning to complex removals, with safety and long-term tree health behind every decision. The species we see most here are sugar maples, pin oaks, and honeylocusts, and each one tells you something about the ground it's standing in. We find the cause before we prescribe a treatment, because the wrong fix on a stressed tree just buys another year of decline.
- Tree trimming and pruning to clear deadwood, open crowded canopies, and build the structure that carries a tree through an ice load.
- Tree removal and stump grinding for trees past saving, including the ash left dead and brittle by emerald ash borer.
- Emergency tree service when straight-line winds or heavy wet snow drop a limb across your driveway, roof, or a line.
- Insect and disease management for emerald ash borer, Japanese beetles, bagworms, and scale.
- Deep-root fertilization that places nutrients past the compacted clay and into the root zone.
- Cabling and bracing for split trunks and heavy co-dominant leaders on mature maples and oaks.
- Lightning protection for the tall specimen trees that anchor a property and can't be replaced in a season.
Delaware Lawn Care Programs
(Coming Soon)
A central Ohio lawn spends spring fighting crabgrass out of compacted clay and late summer trying to hold color through a dry stretch. Kentucky bluegrass, tall fescue, and perennial rye each want something different from a feeding schedule, which is why a single bag off the hardware-store shelf rarely carries a full season. We build our lawn care programs around the grass you actually have and the soil it's sitting in.
- Pre-emergent and weed control timed to stop crabgrass, nutsedge, and creeping charlie before they establish.
- Seasonal fertilization matched to the Kentucky bluegrass, tall fescue, and perennial rye that do best here.
- Grub control that protects roots from Japanese beetle larvae feeding through late summer.
- Fall aeration and overseeding to break up compacted clay and thicken turf that has thinned out.
Licensed Pest Control Services (Coming Soon)
Most of the pest pressure here starts outside and works its way toward the house: ants trail along foundations, wasps build under eaves, and boxelder bugs and stink bugs mass on warm siding once nights cool off. Our pest control plans treat the yard and the perimeter so that pressure stops at the property line. That includes the mosquitoes and ticks that hold in the shaded, damp corners of a central Ohio yard.
- Mosquito, flea, and tick control for the shaded, damp corners of the yard where they breed and wait.
- Ant control along foundations, walkways, and patio edges where colonies set up.
- Perimeter treatments that block spiders, boxelder bugs, and stink bugs before they reach the house.
- Wasp and hornet nest removal from eaves, soffits, playsets, and shrubs.
A Company Local To You
Joshua Tree Experts in Delaware is locally owned and operated. The people who answer your call live in these communities and drive past last season's work on the way home. You get ISA-Certified Arborists who diagnose before they prescribe, crews that protect the turf and beds around every job, and straight talk from the first walkthrough to the final cleanup. We'd rather explain why a tree needs cabling than sell you a removal it doesn't.

Brian Lechlitner’s path to Joshua Tree Experts is rooted in the soil, built on executive leadership, and driven by a lifelong commitment to stewardship. Raised on a farm, Brian developed an early, hands-on respect for the land and the hard work required to care for it. That foundation guided him through an eight-and-a-half-year tenure as a Chief Operating Officer, where he led teams, scaled operations, navigated complex challenges, and built organizations grounded in accountability and culture.
As a Central Ohio real estate professional with Red 1 Realty, Brian has spent years helping families build, improve, and love where they live. His transition to Joshua Tree Experts represents a natural evolution—bringing together his operational experience, connection to Central Ohio, and farm-rooted appreciation for the land under a brand that shares his commitment to people, culture, service, and stewardship.
For Brian, business isn't just about P&Ls and production; it's about putting people first. He was drawn to Joshua Tree Experts because of its operational discipline and a culture that prioritizes relationships, safety, service, and care for the communities it serves. Supported by his wife, Toni, Brian is proud to establish Joshua Tree Experts in Northern Columbus, bringing professional tree care, lawn care, plant health care, and pest control to the communities they call home.
Today, Brian is focused on building a property care business in Central Ohio known for its people, service, and commitment to the communities it serves—creating local jobs, developing a supportive team culture, and raising the standard of care for homeowners and businesses throughout the region.
