Our Services in germantown, MD

At Rock Creek Tree, Turf & Landscape, we help Germantown homeowners keep their landscapes healthy and beautiful. From removing hazardous trees to shaping ornamental plantings or bringing new life to a worn-out lawn, our team delivers reliable service with professional results.

We’re regularly working throughout Germantown — from tree-lined neighborhoods to homes with wide-open lawns. With our local knowledge and hands-on experience, we know exactly what it takes to keep Germantown landscapes thriving through every season.

Tree Removal

Taking down a tree is no small task — and when it’s not done properly, it can create serious risks for both people and property. That’s why our crews use the right equipment, proven techniques, and a careful approach to remove unwanted or hazardous trees of any size.

Whether it’s a tight residential yard or a larger wooded property, we make sure the work is handled safely and the site is left clean.

Homeowners in Germantown often call us for:

  • Large trees encroaching on homes, driveways, or power lines
  • Trees weakened by age, pests, or disease
  • Hazardous limbs hanging over patios, pools, or play areas
  • Complete tree removal after storm damage

Tree Trimming & Pruning

Healthy, well-shaped trees don’t happen on their own — they need regular attention. Our pruning services are designed to improve both the appearance and structure of your trees, keeping them safe, balanced, and thriving season after season. By removing weak or overgrown branches and guiding new growth, we help Germantown landscapes stay both attractive and low-maintenance.

Why Germantown homeowners schedule pruning with us:

  • Clearing branches away from roofs, fences, and walkways
  • Extending the health and strength of mature trees
  • Reducing risks before summer storms or winter snow
  • Shaping trees for a clean, polished look

Emergency Tree Services

When severe weather knocks trees down, quick action is essential. Our emergency crews in Germantown are on call 24/7 to clear hazards, safeguard your property, and restore safety to your home. With the right equipment and expertise, we move fast so you’re never left waiting after a storm.

We help with:

  • Fallen trees blocking driveways or neighborhood streets
  • Branches hanging dangerously after high winds

  • Trees or limbs threatening homes, garages, or fences

tree feeding & insect control

Preserve the life and beauty of your mature trees with expert care from Rock Creek. Every service begins with a detailed evaluation by a Certified Arborist, who provides accurate diagnosis and customized treatment plans to give your trees the best chance to thrive.

Why this matters for Germantown homeowners:

  • Acting early gives healthy ash trees the strongest defense — treatments like foliar sprays, trunk injections, or root feeding can protect them before decline sets in.
  • Invasive pests such as the Emerald Ash Borer (EAB) are threatening ash trees across Maryland, and entire neighborhoods can be impacted if infestations go untreated.
  • When damage is too advanced, our team will recommend safe removal, prioritizing both your property’s safety and the health of your landscape.

STUMP GRINDING

When old stumps are left behind, they can quickly turn from a minor nuisance into a major eyesore. They make mowing difficult, invite pests, and create tripping hazards for kids and pets. That’s why our stump grinding service in Germantown goes beyond just cutting — we remove stumps cleanly and efficiently, grinding them down 10–12 inches below ground level. The result is a smooth, level surface that’s ready for fresh grass, new plantings, or your next landscape project.

We also handle all the cleanup so you don’t have to. Excess wood chips and soil are cleared away, leaving behind a neat, safe, and usable space. Whether you’re preparing for a new patio, planning a garden bed, or simply want your yard free of obstructions, Rock Creek makes sure the job is done right the first time.
