Why Hire an Arborist?

An arborist is a specialist in the care of individual trees. Arborists are knowledgeable about the needs of trees and are trained and equipped to provide proper care. Hiring an arborist is a decision that should not be taken lightly. Proper tree care is an investment that can lead to substantial returns. Well-cared-for trees are attractive and can add considerable value to your property. Poorly maintained trees can be a significant liability. Pruning or removing trees, especially large trees, can be dangerous work. Tree work should be done only by those trained and equipped to work safely in trees.

How Do I Hire an Arborist? 

An easy way to find a commercial arborist or tree care service provider in your area is to use TCIA’s Arborist Finder: Locate your local TCIA member companies. When you hire a TCIA-member tree care company, you are assured that the company you are hiring has access to the most recent information on tree care practices, and that they are insured and/or bonded to protect you and your valuable property. 

You should be aware that the credentials of someone calling himself an arborist can vary widely. Don't just hire someone with a chain saw who knocks on your door! Look for the company displaying the credentials of a professional. Talk to the people who will be doing the work, and ask how the job will be done. If they mention topping or climbing spikes, they are not professionals.

Start with the arborists that are listed in the phone book. Don’t place much emphasis on hte size of the yellow pages ad - some of the most reputable firms rely almost entirely on word-of-mouth advertising and use relatively small Yellow Pages ads. Look instead for what the ad tells you about the company: number of years in business, professional affiliations, licenses, certification, etc. Avoid companies that advertise topping, an injurious and unacceptable practice.

Seek recommendations from neighbors, friends or business associates who you know have had professional tree care work done in the past.

Check with your City Hall and see if the municipality requires licensing for arborists; many communities do.

Check for certification by the International Society of Arboriculture, or by a local certifying body such as a state arborist association. Certification is voluntary, and is an indicator of professional practice, but not a guarantee.

Pay attention to your instinctive feelings when you contact companies by phone as well as when they send a representative to look at your trees. Try to arrange a face-to-face meeting with the arborist when they first come to your property.
