Frequently Asked Questions
What is an ISA-certified arborist?
An ISA-certified arborist is a tree care professional recognized for their expertise by the International Society of Arboriculture. Certification requires passing a rigorous exam and ongoing education, ensuring up-to-date knowledge of tree biology and care practices.
Why is pruning my trees important?
Pruning helps improve tree health by removing dead or diseased branches. It also enhances the appearance of the tree, improves air circulation, and reduces the risk of damage from storms or falling limbs.
How do I know if a tree needs to be removed?
If a tree is diseased, dead, or poses a safety risk to your property, removal may be necessary. Our arborists can assess the tree’s health and provide recommendations based on its condition.
How often should trees be evaluated?
We recommend having your trees evaluated by a certified arborist every 1-3 years, or more frequently if you notice changes in their health, structure, or appearance.
