Take time, ask questions when hiring for tree care

by | Nov 24, 2020 | Tree Service Akron Ohio

From pruning to fertilizing to insect protection to removal, care for your trees is an important and personal decision. You need someone who understands the types of trees on your property and the care they need, especially if you are dealing with an infestation. Saving a tree or safely removing a tree demands skill and knowledge.

As a homeowner, you don’t need to be a tree expert to know you need one when a tree appears sick or has become a hazard. Asking the right questions is crucial when it comes time to hire someone to help out with the trees on your property.

Tips for finding a tree expert

  • A professional arborist will be the best resource for the health and needs of all the trees on your property. Look for accreditation as an ISA certified arborist.
  • Ask about training of employees. Tree pruning and/or removal is difficult work that demands detailed training both for the health of the tree and safety when removing a tree.
  • Be sure the company is licensed and insured. This protects you, the company and the employees in the event of an accident or damage on your property during servicing.
  • Get more than one estimate for the work you require and study the details of the bid. The lowest estimate is not necessarily the right choice for you depending on what you hope to accomplish.
  • Don’t accept bargain deals from people going door-to-door, especially if your neighborhood has recently experienced storm damage. Unscrupulous people often take advantage in these situations.
  • Ask around and get referrals from people you trust who have had similar work done.

Companies that know the business of trees have made a big investment in training and equipment and will always work with you to determine the best and safest solution for the trees on your property. Tree care and tree removal services in Akron, Ohio, and the surrounding area are best left to these experts.
