HEALTH ASSESSMENTS

We believe in sharing knowledge.  Our intention is to educate you about the health of your trees so that you can make reasonable decisions about their best care.

Free health assessments are provided by an ISA certified arborist.

House calls for your trees

We approach onsite tree assessments like a house call visit from your family doctor.  Our duty is to help, and not to harm.  

No arborist has a crystal ball that can fully predict what a living organism will do. 

Using best arboriculture diagnostic practices and skilled intuition, honed over years of working in and with trees, we can share an expert’s evaluation of current health, what we believe could happen, and what proactive measures would be efficacious.

After an examination, we will share our findings and prescriptions.  If your trees need a specialist, or care outside of our wheel house, we’ll share a referral.
