Catch problems early
Annual tree maintenance that catches distress before it costs you a tree.
Yearly maintenance lets us spot early signs of disease, pest infestation and structural problems before they overwhelm a tree. It is also the maintenance record insurance companies want to see if a tree ever does come down.
Healthy roots, limbs and leaves start with a regular look.
During a maintenance visit we inspect the whole tree and the soil it lives in. We are experienced in early recognition of disease and pest activity and can arrange timely treatment when it is required, before the condition compromises the integrity of the tree.
Mulching improves moisture retention and moderates soil temperature. Where turf grass is stealing nutrients from the root zone, we can help eliminate it so the tree, not the lawn, gets what it needs.
Maintenance is the cheapest insurance a property owner can buy.
Preexisting conditions, like a long-dead tree, are generally not covered when they fall. Homeowners are responsible for preventative maintenance, and a documented yearly program helps avoid a financial snafu when a storm hits.
Structural problems are corrected through pruning as part of the visit, and any deadwood we find is removed while we are there.

FAQ
Tree Maintenance questions before you call
Which properties benefit most from an annual program?
Any property with mature trees near a house, driveway, pool or play area, and commercial properties where falling limbs are a liability. Wooded lots along the river valley are ideal candidates.
Do you treat diseased trees yourself?
We recognize disease and infestation early and arrange the appropriate treatment. Where a tree is beyond saving, we will tell you honestly and price the removal.
