5 STEP PLAN
TREE EVALUATION.
One of our ISA certified arborists will schedule a meeting to asses the health and vitality of your trees and discuss the goals you have. When applicable we may use non-invasive methods such as TreeRadar™.
RECOMMENDATIONS.
After our evaluation we’ll have a good idea of the level of tree care and frequency required. Based on that, we will recommend a treatment plan and estimate costs.
PHC TREATMENTS.
Using the latest technology and proven methods, we will apply a variety of tree care treatments, including deep root watering and fertilization, organic soil remediation, trimming and pruning, root excavation, etc.
TREE MAPPING & MONITORING.
Each tree is unique. Some trees require frequent monitoring over time. We will map your tree and load the data to our TreePlotter™ software, keeping updated information of the work done. We will schedule monitoring visits when necessary.
TREE CARE INSTRUCTION.
You are an important part of the tree care process too! We will instruct you on warning signs and provide you with suggestions for the ongoing care of your trees, until our next visit.
