Montgomery County, Maryland
Down, dying, or in the way. Call the crew that shows up.
DEL Trees handles removal, trimming, stump grinding, and storm cleanup for homeowners and property managers across Montgomery County — with a crew that plans every cut before the saw starts.
What We Do
Four ways we keep your property safe and clear
From a single overgrown limb to a full lot clearing, every job starts with a plan and ends with a clean site.
Tree Removal & Trimming
Full removals, canopy thinning, deadwooding, and structural pruning — planned around your house, lines, and fences before the first cut.
Request this serviceStump Grinding & Removal
Grinding below grade so you can replant or lay sod right over it, or full root-ball removal when you need the ground truly clear.
Request this serviceEmergency & Storm Damage
Trees on the house, blocking the driveway, or hung up over the yard — we respond fast, stabilize the hazard, and clean up the debris.
Request this serviceLand & Lot Clearing
Clearing overgrown lots, wooded building sites, and fence lines — brush, saplings, and mature trees, hauled out or chipped on site.
Request this serviceWhy DEL Trees
We treat your yard like it's the last stop, not a quick pass-through.
Every job gets a walk-through before anyone touches a saw — we look at the lean, the lines overhead, the fence, the flower bed you actually care about. Then we tell you the plan in plain language, not a pitch.
We're a Montgomery County crew. That means we're the ones who answer when you call back with a question next spring — not a dispatcher three states away.
Certified arborist on staff
Every estimate is reviewed with arborist judgment behind it — the right call on pruning, removal, or leaving a tree alone.
Safety-first crews
Rigging and rope techniques for tight spaces near homes, decks, and power lines — not just drop-and-hope.
We protect the property
Lawns, beds, and driveways get covered and cleared — a finished job means you can't tell we were there, except the tree's gone.
Straight answers, fast quotes
Free written estimates with no upsell script — if a tree doesn't need to come down, we'll tell you.
Licensed & insured
Maryland Tree Expert License #1798, with full liability and workers' comp coverage — verifiable, and carried on every job.
Plant Health Care
Removal is the last option — not the first one
For the trees and shrubs you want to keep, our ISA Certified Arborist runs a full plant health care program — inspections, disease and insect treatment, soil care, and structural support that catch problems long before removal is the only call left.
Led by our ISA Certified Arborist
Every plant health care visit and every removal recommendation is backed by certified arborist judgment — not a sales script. If a tree can be treated instead of taken down, we'll tell you.
Tree & Shrub Health Inspections
A trained walk of the property that catches early signs of pests, disease, and stress — before they turn into a removal.
Request this serviceInsect & Disease Treatment
Targeted treatment for the pests and diseases we see most in Montgomery County — bark beetles, borers, fungal and bacterial disease.
Request this serviceSoil Care & Deep-Root Fertilization
Soil testing and deep-root feeding that gets nutrients where a stressed tree actually needs them — at the roots.
Request this serviceRoot Health & Structural Pruning
Correcting girdling roots and poor structure early, so a tree grows the way it should instead of failing the way it shouldn't.
Request this serviceCabling, Bracing & Support Systems
Structural support for trees with weak unions or storm damage — saving a tree that's worth saving instead of taking it down.
Request this serviceTree Risk Assessments
A certified arborist's evaluation of stability and hazard potential, so you know if a tree needs to come down or just needs attention.

Common Questions
Before you call
Do I need a permit to remove a tree in Montgomery County?
It depends on the tree, its size, and where it sits on your property — the county and some municipalities have their own rules. We'll flag anything that needs a permit during your estimate, and can point you to the right office to confirm before work starts.
How fast can you respond to storm damage?
Emergency calls get priority scheduling ahead of routine work. Call the number above and describe what's down or hanging — we'll give you a realistic window based on what's happening in the county that day.
What does a tree removal or trimming estimate cost?
Estimates are always free and there's no obligation. Pricing depends on the tree's size, condition, and how hard it is to access — you'll get a written number before any work is scheduled.
Will you leave my yard a mess?
No — cleanup and haul-away are part of every job, not an add-on. We protect lawns and beds before we start and walk the property with you before we leave.
Do you handle stump grinding on its own?
Yes — you don't need to have used us for the removal. We grind stumps of any size below grade so you can replant, lay sod, or just stop tripping over it.
Do you treat sick or declining trees, or only remove them?
Removal is the last option, not the first one. Our ISA Certified Arborist inspects sick or stressed trees and shrubs and can treat insects, disease, and soil problems, or add cabling and bracing for structural support — a tree only comes down when it truly needs to.
