by Certified Arborists

Hiring a certified arborist ensures that your trees receive expert care and ethical maintenance, contributing to their health, safety, and longevity. Certified arborists possess specialized knowledge and training in tree biology, pruning techniques, disease diagnosis, and safe removal practices, which can prevent costly damage and injuries.

Topping is not only catastrophic for a tree, but it is also a waste of money. Research has found that most people top trees because of fear that the tree is becoming too large. By this, these well-intentioned folks mean that they fear for their safety or their buildings. But in most cases, topping just contributes to greater danger from the resulting proliferation of weakly attached sprouts and the entrance of decay that the tree will not recover from. A qualified arborist can make a recommendation for a pruning goal that will balance the customer's concerns with the health of the tree.

Spikes or spurs should never be worn by climbing arborists unless the tree is being removed, they should never be used for pruning. Proper pruning requires highly skilled climbers with proper training in tree health care. Climbing with spikes introduces hundreds of wounds deep into the tissue of the tree, causing the tree to have to expend energy to heal, and also allowing an entry point for pests, disease and fungus. We have specialized tree care lifts and professional climbers that are highly experienced in spur/spike free climbing.
