In many cases, the best medicine may be some good advice.  Pictured above is an example of bad advice and bad practice to be avoided.  

Trees are complex biological organisms that require thoughtful and competent care to ensure good vitality, structure, and appearance.  Trees provide social, economic, and environmental benefits to our community spaces and our private property.  If you have concerns with your trees or just a healthy curiosity, you may benefit from a professional consultation, or a just-in-time second opinion.  Arc Tree Consulting has deep experience in all areas of arboriculture and can assist you with the most up-to-date industry information.

Tree Appraisal for Landscape Trees

How much would it cost to replace the trees on your property? This could be valuable information for you in an unfortunate event where your trees are damaged or killed; you will need to know this when pursuing insurance claims or litigation. Arc Tree Consulting can provide you with an independent, objective, appraisal opinion based on current industry guidance.

Service Consultation

There is a big difference between a “free estimate” and a professional consultation. Arc Tree Consulting can provide you with a recommendation or specification for service that adheres to current ANSI A300 standards. With your specification in hand you can collect bids from prospective tree service providers based on a clearly defined scope of work, making the process easier for you and them.  This will also help you quickly separate truly professional service providers from the “well…not so much”.

Site Planning / Species Recomendation

Ready to add some more trees but not certain what to do? Arc Tree Consulting can help with species recommendation and on-site planning. One of the most important rules of planting is “right tree, right spot”. Many of the problems we encounter with trees in our landscape boil down to either not understanding or not following that guideline. Together we can develop the best plan for your site; designed to identify and achieve your goals while providing realistic choices of species and placement based on your individual environment.
