Our Services
Breathe Easier with a Yard That’s Safe and Stunning
At Sage Tree Experts, we provide comprehensive tree care from expert pruning and safe tree removal to stump grinding, fertilization, pest control, and 24/7 emergency response. We bring certified experience, pro-grade equipment, and a commitment to keeping your landscape healthy, safe, and beautiful.
Tree Removal
Regardless of the amount of care we give a tree, on occasion, tree removal is necessary. Structural defects, irreparable storm damage, or decline due to environmental stresses, are just a few of the circumstances that may necessitate the eventual removal of trees from your property. For any tree that needs to be removed, we have the training, equipment, and experience to get it done correctly, safely and efficiently.
Tree Trimming and Pruning
As trees grow and change their structural characteristics, storm damage, insects and disease can create defects that must be monitored. With identification of these issues, proper and timely trimming and pruning is an extremely important cultural practice. Our Arborists will provide you with comprehensive tree trimming and pruning programs to maximize the health and structural integrity of your trees.
Stump Grinding
Stump grinding is an efficient and effective method of removing the stump of a tree while leaving the roots intact. The stump is ground down to a desired height using high-tech industrial machinery, and the result is both neat and environmentally-friendly. There's no hole in your property that will need to be filled, and the stump grindings can be re-purposed as mulch for your landscaping. Large project or small, we've got the equipment and know-how to get the job done right.
Tree and Shrub Fertilization
Seasonal fertilization of your trees and plantings is essential for maintaining the overall health and beauty of your landscape. It improves soil structure and aeration, stimulates root and stem growth, provides consistent nourishment to your trees and plants throughout the seasons, and offers increased protection from disease, insects, and weather extremes.
Insect and disease control
There are many environmental factors, both natural and man-made, that can affect your landscape’s ability to evolve and thrive. Our tree experts and plant management specialists are acutely aware of these issues and can formulate an appropriate plan geared towards maintaining balance within your property’s outdoor living space.
Emergency Tree Service
The Sage team is available anytime to perform emergency evaluations for potential hazards such as fallen trees, uprooted trees, or other storm-related damage. We are able to dispatch crews and equipment as needed to handle storm damage situations. Our skilled personnel are able to quickly clear away hazardous debris to allow for prompt repair of damaged structures.

Hear from Our Happy Customers
Ed Sage came to my property after having water damage in my basement from a storm. Ed was very knowledgeable and gave us great advice for preventing this happening, weather it came from the basement windows or ground water. He also gave advice on a neighbors tree that I do not want falling on my house and informed me how to write a formal letter from an LTE to my neighbor. Ed was extremely helpful and nice and would absolutely recommend him to everyone!
Ed Sage was wonderful! We had water intrusion into basement during recent deluge and called him to advise on whether grading was needed. He was quick to respond, fair and honest. He didn't jump to give us costly solutions and even assessed a tree we were concerned about. He is following up with us to further advise once we have the water/mold remediation complete. We will definitely be calling him for any future needs (we already have a list!)
Used Ed and his company for 15 years. He and his team are outstanding. A plus in every way for Marcus for construction to Lou for tree and landscaping to Cathy in office plus all his employees they are the best. Ed always gets involved if needed and always gets back to you. He makes sure the job is 100 percent correct and any issues while rate are corrected. Always available to his clients. And his prices are very reasonable. Wtih Sage and crew you know job will be timely and 100% done right. If I could give 10 stars I would. Issues if any are few and far between and Ed or his crew always solve it. Plus his reputation in the area is second to none.
Sage is always my first choice for landscaping and tree work. They are extremely responsible professional and have great attention to detail. They also stand by their work. I had a couple of shrubs die over the winter and they agreed to replace them without issue since they care about delivering great value to their customers. Would highly recommend.

Thanks very much for your recommendation, Chris. It's always a pleasure to work with you and we truly appreciate your repeat business. Hope we will work together again soon! 
Absolutely amazing experience with Sage. We raised our yard and expanded an acre of it with fill dirt, then Sage came, leveled it and planted grass. The men worked so efficiently and their work was beautiful. It has only been 8 days and we have so much grass growing already! Ed the owner, was so helpful and so knowledgeable on how we needed to water it to ensure maximum growth. We are so happy and excited to be able to enjoy our new beautiful yard! Worth every penny!

Thank you for the 5-star rating, Peter -- we do appreciate it! 
Highly recommend Ed Sage and his team! We had a broken underground pipe that needed immediate repair and Ed came out with one day's notice, and sent a crew to start the work the very next day. Not only did the crew do an incredible job, but Ed assisted with permits from the town, and also our home insurance claim. From start to finish, the process was seamless and there was always an open line of communication. Five stars across the board. We will absolutely recommend Sage Landscaping to all of our neighbors and friends in the future.

Thank you so much for taking the time to post a review, Anna. You were wonderful to work with and it's great to hear how satisfied you were with the outcome of the project. We very much appreciate you recommending our services and hope we'll have an opportunity to work together again. 
Great work. Efficient, and perfectionist. Always gives great advice. Maybe a little more expensive than competitors, but have tried competing companies and I always come back to Ed and his crew. It’s true you get what you pay for.

Thank you so much for this recognition, Toni ~ we do appreciate it! ^BR 
Ed Sage and Sage Landscape have been our #1 go to landscaping contractors for nearly 30 years. We worked with Ed, Marcus, Lou and their crews on two different residential properties in Union County. They provided all hard scape infrastructures (retaining walls, intricate drainage systems, patios, walkways, pool surround, waterfall etc), our tree maintenance and our plant materials. We’ve been in our current home more than 20 years and all of the work completed by Sage has lasted and matured beautifully. The crews are very responsive and many of them have been working on our property for multiple years. Sage also assisted with emergency basement flooding, in a time of need. We would highly recommend them.

Christal--Thank you so much for taking the time to write this wonderful review, we are extremely grateful! It is always a pleasure working with you and we appreciate both your customer loyalty and ongoing confidence in our services. We value your business and are so happy to hear how pleased you are with everything we've done throughout the years. Many thanks, once again! ^BR 
I hired Sage Landscaping after meeting several different contractors regarding significant flooding and water issues in my yard. They had the combination of expertise and remediation methods that we needed, and they have been amazing through the ongoing process of remediating our property. Ed Sage immediately went to bat for us during the very difficult permitting process and has expertly and professionally dealt with each challenge. He has been super responsive to our needs and concerns, and is always available to help. The work that they have done so far has been quick, done well and cleaned up after meticulously. We highly recommend Sage Landscaping!
