Our team at Certified Arborist Tree Service has been providing high-quality tree services for over 25 years, and in that time, we have encountered a wide number of other tree companies. Our certified arborists know that not all tree companies are alike, and some may even cause more harm than good. To help you avoid unreliable tree companies, we want to share some key insights.
In this blog, we’d like to cover four key qualities of trustworthy tree companies. If you’re thinking about working with a potential tree service provider, we strongly recommend looking for these indications first:
- Professional Certification and Training – Certified arborists aren’t just knowledgeable about proper tree maintenance and common tree diseases; they’re also committed to continuing their education. Before working with a tree service provider, ask them if they have a certified arborist on their team and inquire about their training methods.
- Insurance Coverage – Working with trees can be dangerous, and accidents can happen to even the most careful people. Reliable tree companies should be open about their insurance coverage and be willing to show you proof of both liability insurance and worker’s compensation.
- Positive Reviews – Reading some online reviews and testimonials can help you gain a better idea of the work ethic and service quality of the business. If the most recent reviews seem to be more negative than positive, we urge you to look somewhere else to get the care you need.
- Comprehensive Services – Great tree companies should have the expertise and equipment needed to handle all types of jobs, from emergency tree removal to tree trimming. If a business doesn’t offer a full range of tree services, you might want to seek a different provider.
