“It’s evident they prioritize trust and integrity in everything they do.”
— Hear From Our Real Customers
“I highly recommend Joshua Tree Services. Besides being extremely reasonably priced, they left the yard in better condition than they found it. I didn't have to pick up a single leaf when they were done.”
Judith W.“On time. Did what they said they would do. Talked me out of doing something I thought should be done - they were right and saved me $$$. Cleaned up. And, I was so impressed by their knowledge (the arborist) and their skill in taking down the tree, I introduced them to my fussy neighbor who (I believe) has hired them to do some work on his property. Thank you Joshua Tree Experts!”
C.T.“I couldn’t be happier with the service provided by Joshua Tree Experts! From start to finish, the team was highly professional, attentive, and committed to ensuring our tree removal needs were handled with precision and care. It’s evident they prioritize trust and integrity in everything they do. The crew was not only skilled but also respectful of my property, leaving the area immaculate after the job was done. Knowing that Joshua Tree Experts values both their work and their customers has made me a loyal customer. Highly recommended!”
Leighton S.Tree Care Services We Offer to Summit Residents
Your trees can make the yard or endanger it. We clear crowding, cut out deadwood, and turn around declining health so your Summit property shines.
Tree Trimming
A crown that has run unchecked catches more wind than it should and drops limbs onto the yard. Our tree trimming reduces that sail area, removes dead and rubbing branches, and keeps Summit trees resilient on exposed ground.
Tree Removal & Stump Grinding
When a tree is beyond saving, it should come out cleanly. We handle tree removal on Summit's tight city lots with precise rigging, then grind the stump so the yard is clear.
Tree Cabling & Bracing
Wind exposure finds every weak fork in a tree. Our cabling and bracing supports vulnerable unions and limbs so Summit's hilltop trees hold together in heavy weather.
Tree Health Programs
A tree in early decline can usually be saved if it is caught in time. Our tree health programs monitor Summit trees season to season and treat problems before they spread.
Tree Fertilizing
Summit's stony upland soil drains fast and holds few nutrients. Our deep-root fertilization injects a balanced blend at the root zone so trees grow stronger and greener each season.
Insect & Disease Management
Emerald ash borer and beech leaf disease are spreading through the area, and the region holds a heavy ash population. Our insect and disease treatments identify these threats early and treat them before your Summit trees decline.
Arborist Inspections
When the city, an insurer, or a buyer needs a professional evaluation, our ISA-Certified Arborists provide arborist reports on Summit trees with clear findings and documentation.
Lightning Protection
On Summit's hilltop, tall trees are exposed to every passing storm. We install lightning protection systems that send a strike safely to ground and protect prized specimens.
Emergency Tree Services
Hilltop wind can bring branches and trees down hard. Our emergency tree services in Summit respond quickly to clear the damage and remove the hazard.

From Branches to Roots: Tree Care Across the Mid-Atlantic
Summit occupies high ground at the edge of the Watchung ridges, where mature oaks, maples, and beeches shade established streets rooted in stony upland soil. The hilltop setting gives the city strong winds and full exposure to winter storms.
The threats are specific: emerald ash borer is tearing through a region with a heavy ash population, beech leaf disease is spreading, and heavy snow and ice strain the older canopies each winter. We answer with early detection, structural pruning for wind and ice, root-zone care for stony soil, and storm-season prep.

Summit Tree Care FAQs
Do I Need a Permit to Remove a Tree in Summit?
+
Usually, yes. The City of Summit regulates removals, particularly of larger or parkway trees. We verify your requirements and submit any permit applications before starting.
How Much Does it Cost to Remove a Tree in Summit?
+
The price depends on how large the tree is, its health, and access; a big hilltop tree near the house runs higher than a small open one. We visit first and quote it plainly.
What Are the Benefits of Tree Trimming?
+
Trimming keeps a tree looking its best and standing strong, which counts on Summit's exposed streets. It clears dead and weak limbs, opens the crown, and cuts the risk of wind and storm breakage.
How Often Should I Trim My Trees?
+
Every one to three years works for most trees, with wind-exposed hilltop trees needing a closer eye. We set a schedule that keeps your Summit trees healthy.
What Time of Year is Best for Tree Pruning?
+
We favor the dormant season, late winter to early spring, because pruning then promotes strong regrowth and limits disease. A hazardous limb is removed immediately, whatever the time of year.
What Does Tree Fertilizing Include?
+
Deep-root feeding puts a balanced blend beneath Summit's fast-draining upland soil, right at the roots. Trees show better color, sturdier roots, and improved resistance to drought and disease.
Why Do My Trees Need Cabling?
+
Wind on the hilltop finds every weak union. Cabling supports vulnerable forks and limbs so a valued Summit tree does not split in a storm.
