What Services Do Arborists Provide?

A certified arborist is a tree health expert who has extensive education and applied experience in how to properly care for a large variety of tree and shrub species. To remain certified in the field, arborists are required to stay up to date on all the newest advancements in arboriculture science, technology, and techniques. 

The certified arborists at Vintage Tree Care specialize in a wide variety of services to create personalized care plans to ensure the best possible growth and development of each tree, shrub, and woody plant on your property.

Tree Trimming & Pruning

Having your trees trimmed and pruned regularly ensures the longevity of their health and beauty for years to come. Improper cutting techniques can actually stunt the growth of a tree or even result in the death of the tree entirely. Certified arborists are able to provide education-based care and know the proper trimming and pruning techniques for each species of tree for optimal growth. 

In addition to enhancing the natural beauty of the trees on your property, arborists have a fundamental understanding of how trees physically respond to pruning, trimming, decay, and other external damage (CODIT). This enables them to provide personalized care to each tree individually, and ensure they grow lush, strong, and even more resistant to pest infestations and diseases.

Tree Removal

An arborist’s entire career is grounded in providing optimal care to ensure the health, safety, and beauty of all tree species. Oftentimes, if a tree is sick or distressed they are able to diagnose and treat the issue, but in some unfortunate cases, tree removal is required to ensure the ultimate health and safety of the property. 

Tree removal is not a do-it-yourself job and without the proper training, experience, and equipment, it is incredibly dangerous. If a tree on your property needs to be removed, a certified arborist will be able to plan and execute the project safely and carefully. They will also overlook the transportation and disposal of the tree to ensure it is done properly and without any damage to your property or the surrounding landscape.

Tree Planting and Transplanting Services

Working with an arborist to landscape with trees ensures your property thrives and remains beautiful, healthy, and safe for years to come. Arborists can help you choose the best species of trees for your property, lifestyle, and personal needs. 

A certified arborist understands the watering, sun exposure, and soil quality requirements for any tree species to ensure its ultimate success on your property. They can even help you design a drought-resistant or fire-resistant landscape with trees and shrubs. Whatever your landscaping goals might be, an arborist can help make it a reality.

Tree Health Inspections

An arborist can diagnose and treat a diverse range of diseases, pest infestations, and many other health and safety risks trees are susceptible to. Each individual tree will receive a thorough assessment for signs of environmental concerns, damage, or injury and their cause. 

With these routine health inspections, arborists can then provide educational-based recommendations for ongoing care that will benefit each tree the most.

Vegetation Management and Wildfire Defensible Landscaping

Arborists are dedicated to providing ongoing tree care and vegetation management personalized to your needs, while also ensuring your property remains lush, sculpted, healthy, and safe year-round. 

In areas prone to annual wildfires, like Northern California, tree care professionals understand the importance of maintaining the health and beauty of our surrounding landscape to create Wildfire Defensible Spaces. Arborists work to not only help safeguard your property from the threat of wildfires but also reduce the rising risk these natural disasters have on the health and safety of our community as a whole.
