Know every tree you are responsible for.

A geotagged inventory of every tree on the property, with species, condition, and the work each one needs, so the budget stops being a guess and the file stops being empty.

Most tree companies show up when something is already wrong. An inventory is how you find out first.

Plan the spend before the season plans it for you.

What you get

Four things land in your inbox.

Not a verbal walkthrough, and not a subscription to somebody else’s software. A finished set of documents you own.

  • A geotagged map Every tree pinned to its coordinates, numbered, and grouped by area, so a crew, a board, or a new manager can find tree 47 without you standing there pointing.
  • A record for every tree Species, approximate age class, trunk size, canopy notes, and a condition rating, with photos of anything that matters. Where a tree needs a closer look, it gets a full risk assessment.
  • A prioritized work plan What to do now, what to do this year, what to watch. Priced, so the plan is also a budget: a removal this season, a round of pruning next.
  • An annual refresh We walk it again each year, update condition, close out completed work, and reissue the map. Year two is faster because the baseline already exists.
One tree, one record

This is what a single line looks like.

Take an oak at the edge of a parking row. The record shows where it stands, what it is, roughly how old, how wide the trunk measures, and what the arborist saw: a pair of co-dominant stems with a tight union, directly over four parking spaces. Then the recommended work, the priority tier, and the date of the next review. Multiply that by a few hundred trees and you have a plan instead of a worry.

Why it pays

The inventory earns its keep before a single cut.

Budget
Forecast the spend a year out instead of meeting it as a surprise
Liability
A dated written record of what was known, and when
Storms
Weak trees found before the wind finds them
Approvals
Evidence a board or a purchasing office can read
The method

Walked, recorded, rated, reported.

Walk it

An arborist covers the property on foot, tree by tree, including the ones behind the dumpster enclosure that nobody has looked at in six years.

Record it

Location, species, size, and condition captured in the field, with photos attached to the tree they belong to.

Rate it

Risk assessments follow TRAQ methodology: how likely a part is to fail, how likely that failure meets a person or a car, and how bad it would be. Crews are trained to ANSI A300 standards, and the work plan is written to them.

Report it

Map, records, and work plan delivered as a PDF and a spreadsheet within two weeks of the last day on site.

Who runs these

Built for anyone who signs off on grounds.

  • Property management firms You carry a book of sites and one budget line per property. The inventory gives you a document to forward and a number to defend, filed per property under one commercial tree service account.
  • HOA and community boards Volunteers voting on reserves, with owners watching. The inventory turns an argument about one tree into a phased plan the whole board can read in a packet.
  • Corporate campuses and headquarters Grounds budgets get graded on not being surprised. A dated plan sets the year, instead of the year setting itself the first time a limb comes down on a visitor space.
  • Hospitals and higher education Trees over walkways, entrances, and parking decks, on grounds that also have to keep looking good. Declining trees land on the plant health care list rather than straight on the removal list.
  • Cities, parks, and public works Public trees, public records, and a claim file that has to show somebody was looking. When something fails anyway, storm response comes from the same company that holds the data.
The difference

Most tree care starts after the failure.

The standard

What we ask of ourselves before we ask for the job.

Every crew passes the same gate before it works under The Certified Arborist Tree Service, and has to keep passing it to stay. Crews are trained to ANSI A300 standards.

  1. Expert arborists lead

    Crews led by people trained to know what a tree needs, not just how to cut it.

  2. The insurance that matters

    Coverage built for tree work, the kind that protects every inch of your property.

  3. A clean record

    Reputation checked. A history of unresolved complaints is a no.

  4. References that hold up

    Real customers, real jobs, checked.

  5. Capacity to show up

    They answer when you call. A standard nobody picks up the phone for is not a standard.

Common questions

What managers ask before they sign off.

Straight answers on scope, timing, and what the report is good for.

What do I actually receive?
A map with every tree pinned to its coordinates, a record for each tree covering species, approximate age class, size, and condition, and a work plan that sorts recommended work into what to do now, what to do this year, and what to watch. You get it as a PDF and as a spreadsheet you can sort and filter.
How long does an inventory take?
Field work on a typical office park or community runs one to three days depending on tree count and access. The finished report follows within two weeks of the last day on site. Larger portfolios get scheduled site by site so you are not waiting on the whole book to see the first one.
How is condition rated?
Each tree is scored on how likely a part is to fail, how likely that failure meets a person or a car, and how bad it would be. That is why two trees with the same crack can land in different priority tiers. One is over a parking row, the other is over lawn.
Can I use the report for insurance or a board vote?
Yes. The report is dated, photographed, and written to be read by someone who was never on the property. Boards use it to justify a spend, and adjusters read it as the record of what was known and when.
Do I have to do the work you recommend?
No. The inventory is a standalone deliverable and it is priced that way, and you own the data. Bidding the recommended work out is a normal way to use it, and the inventory makes those bids comparable, because every bidder is pricing the same list.
What does the annual refresh cover?
We walk the property again, update condition on every tree, close out work that was completed, add trees that were planted, and reissue the map and the budget outlook. The second year is faster and cheaper than the first because the baseline already exists.
