SERVICES PROVIDED BY AN ARBORIST
The services provided by an arborist will vary depending on their skills and areas of expertise, but you can generally expect that most professional arborists will provide the following types of services: pruning, tree removal, emergency tree care, planting, plant health care and maintenance, fertilization, and insect and disease control. There are many other services that arborists may provide. Consulting with an arborist and establishing a plant health care plan will help determine when these services are necessary. Invest in the health of your trees by hiring a professional arborist.

HOW TO FIND A QUALIFIED ARBORIST

We encourage you to consider the following criteria before making a hiring decision: certification or credentials, professional affiliations, insurance, references and the estimate/cost of the work. ISAO encourages homeowners and business owners to hire companies who have ISA certified professionals on staff.
