What Happens During a Tree Service Consultation

May 5, 2015

We always start with the goals of the client and then offer solutions to meet those needs. In this video Jim Houston, Davey Tree Service expert and ISA certified arborist, covers what he found during his onsite consultation and his recommendations. 1. Proper Pruning supports tree health and can minimize risk - make sure your arborist is insured! 2. Trees and turf don’t always play nice. A pro can help you manage that tricky relationship. 3. Holistic plant health care includes analysis of the tree, soil, and site. And it also addresses risk and homeowner goals. 4. A common situation can create safety issues. A professional risk assessment should be conducted by a professional arborist. 5. We will fertilize this tree and remaining trees and shrubs on the property as part of a proactive annual Plant Health Care program. 6. Remove planting stakes and braces after the tree has been planted and established. 7. Know your soil and the requirements of a new tree before planting. 8. Shrubs need to be monitored, too. 9. Proper monitoring and plant health care can save a homeowner from expensive removal and treatment costs. Meeting Tips 1. Make sure your arborist is professionally trained. Ask about TCIA accreditation, ISA certification and ANSI Standards. 2. Ask questions. 3. Request a free consultation.
