Types of Tree Pruning

Homeowners should take the time to understand a tree company’s commitment to quality, safety, licensing, and reputation before hiring them. Hiring a reputable tree service company saves money in the long run because tree pruning done right improves tree health, making trees less susceptible to mechanical breakage, tree pests, and diseases. Below are three tips on hiring the best tree service company.

  • Check to see if a tree service company has at least one International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) Certified Arborist on staff. Arborists specialize in tree care and become certified by taking coursework and passing a comprehensive examination.
  • Check the company’s website and see if they are a member of ISA and the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA). Membership in both organizations shows their willingness to stay up-to-date on the latest tree care innovations and best practices.
  • Check the company’s reviews on Google My Business or Yelp. Companies with 4-star reviews or higher are probably good picks.
