Who will be working on my trees?
Owner Josiah Macauley is an ISA Certified Arborist (PN-7246A) and an ISA certified tree risk assessor with 17+ years of experience in the tree industry, and the team of ISA-certified arborists adheres to all ANSI A300 standards.
How long does a tree project take?
Once scheduled, the team sets up a time to come by and work on your property. Most projects range from a couple of hours to a full day to complete.
Can you reach trees in tight or hard-to-access spots?
Yes. A bucket truck with a reach of 75 feet handles complex pruning, tree risk mitigation, emergency storm work and difficult areas, and the Bandit SG-40 stump grinder measures only 29 inches wide so stumps can be ground where access is narrow.
Do you handle storm damage?
Yes. After a storm the team can mitigate the risk of hazardous trees by removing or pruning the tree in question, and any debris is cleaned up afterwards.
Can you tell me whether a tree needs to come down?
Yes. Spring Tree Experts can diagnose if your tree is unhealthy or is at risk of causing damage to your property, then come up with a solution that works best for your needs. Tree risk assessments, arborist reports, vegetation management plans and site plans are also available.
Do you treat trees for insects?
Yes. If your trees or bushes are suffering from mites, beetles, borers, aphids or another insect variety, the team can treat them accordingly to be pest-free.
