Tree Health Assessment
An arborist's read on whether a tree is safe, what is wrong with it, and whether it is worth saving — before you pay to remove something that could have been treated.
A straight answer about your tree
Removals are expensive and permanent. An assessment is neither. We look at the root flare, trunk condition, branch structure, decay indicators, and what sits underneath if it failed, then tell you plainly: leave it, treat it, prune it, or take it out.
We would rather talk you out of an unnecessary removal than sell you one. Thirty years in the same region means our name here is worth more than any single job.
