Tree Risk Assessments (TRAQ)

A formal risk assessment can help when a tree is leaning, cracked, decaying, or standing near a home, driveway, or other area people use. Our arborist is ISA Tree Risk Assessment Qualified (TRAQ). We evaluate the tree, the site, and what could be affected if the tree or a part of it fails, then explain the findings in plain language so you can decide what to do next.

​

Tree Health and Disease Diagnosis

If a tree is thinning, dropping leaves early, showing changes in the bark, or has fungi or insect activity, we can help identify what may be going on. A diagnosis can point toward monitoring, treatment, pruning, or, when needed, removal. We will tell you what we see and the practical next steps for your property.

 

Tree Permits and Arborist Reports

We can handle the tree permitting process for you, from the arborist report to the paperwork and follow-up with the city or county. We prepare written arborist reports for permit applications, HOAs, and real estate transactions. Requirements vary by location and project, and final approval is up to the permitting agency. Permit fees vary by municipality.

​

Tree Protection Plans for Construction

Construction, excavation, and grading can damage roots and trunks that are easy to overlook until the tree declines later. We can help plan how to protect trees you want to keep, including recommended protection areas and practical steps for the work on site. If you can, involve us before digging starts.

 

Pruning and Removal Recommendations

After an assessment, we will tell you whether a tree can be maintained with pruning, would benefit from support, or should be removed. When work is recommended, our crews can carry it out.
