An arborist visit is a homeowner’s opportunity to ask a professional tree expert any questions or concerns they may have about their trees. An ISA Board Certified Master Arborist ® (abbreviated as BCMA) will be able to educate you on what kind of trees you have, the approximate age, the health of your trees, any current disease or issues, and the proper care and maintenance of your trees.
Many homeowners are interested in caring for their own trees and landscape in order to save money and time. Our BCMA will gladly teach you how to organically care for your trees and where to obtain the necessary products or tools that the experts use. During the arborist visit, you will be armed with the knowledge to protect your property and trees from unscrupulous, unprofessional, and untrained tree services.
The arborist will give you written information on how to DIY your trees’ care, as well as information that may change the way you view your trees. If the project is greater than the skill of the homeowner or the homeowner would rather the arborist perform the work, then an estimate for tree services will be provided. Upon the acceptance of the estimate, we will gladly deduct your arborist visit fees from the final agreed-upon price. Our main goal during an arborist visit is to answer questions and educate the homeowner.

Arborist visits are professional expert consultations on a residential level that cover technology, information, education, and ideas that are shared with the homeowners without the anticipation of making any sales. Estimates/Sales calls are different from arborist visits in that we offer these services free of charge with the anticipation of securing work. On sales calls, the arborist has a limited amount of time to spend with the customer to ensure an affordable and reasonable estimate that maintains profitability.
Conversely, when an arborist comes out to your residence to share their expert information, their time needs to be accounted for. Most arborist visits last an hour or less, which includes drive time. On the rare occasion that there is an extended drive time (i.e. more than 1 hour one way), the cost of drive time both ways may be added to the cost of the visit.
As an ISA Board Certified Master Arborist ®, we bring expert value to the conversation and always strive to leave the customer with tangible information regarding the visit. Our company offers a discount on the consultation fees when paid in advance prior to the appointment. We acknowledge that on occasion an arborist visit can lead to sales. In these cases, the arborist visit fee will be deducted from the estimate after the price for work has been approved.
We offer a variety of professional tree care services depending on your tree’s specific needs. Our customers trust in our arboricultural expertise and understand our priority will always be to ensure their trees get the best care possible with no unnecessary upcharges and gimmicks.

Are you a contractor or homeowner considering doing renovations or construction near your trees? Before you do anything, read the following information to help prevent damages and diseases due to construction and poor yard care.
Trees are susceptible to injury and diseases when the root system in the surrounding area is disturbed (with some trees, this could be a 100 ft. radius!). Things that may create damages and disease include but are not limited to, building, trenching, digging, filling, or compacting the root zone area of the tree. These can all be fatal to your tree. However, we can work with you or your contractor to pre-treat the surrounding area and rope off a set perimeter to ensure the survivability of your tree. It is imperative for this to be done prior to any construction or work being done, including demolition.
Another large factor to the spreading of diseases and pests is dirty lawn or tree pruning equipment, which is why we ensure all of our equipment is cleaned thoroughly after each job.
Please reconsider the use of herbicides on your yard and landscapes, because they do affect your trees and plants negatively. We will show you other ways to prevent unwanted weeds in your lawn and landscapes that will be healthier for the environment.
With a free estimate from our ISA Board Certified Master Arborist ®, we’ll advise you on the best preventative care to protect your trees and ensure survivability during any home renovations or nearby construction work.
As a master arborist, Eric Putnam BMCA understands how important it is to provide a healthy environment, balanced nutrition, and proper care to ensure healthy tree growth. If your tree appears to be damaged or diseased, contact us today to schedule an arborist visit where we will come to your home and assess your tree’s health. Our ISA Board Certified Master Arborist ® will recommend the best tree treatment and fertilization plan to ensure your tree’s recovery and promote your tree’s healthy growth and survivability for years to come.
Our experienced climbers and trimmers follow all ANSI Standards A300 Series to ensure proper tree care and trimming of your trees and bushes. All of our work will be done to your satisfaction with your property, family, and belongings as our primary concern of emphasis when it comes to providing proper safety and protection while executing our tree services.
We offer tree pruning/trimming, tree removal, tree debris removal, and stump grinding. We can trim any tree whether it’s in the middle of your lawn or hanging over your home. We also offer post storm clean-up and trimming.
In order to preserve the health and aesthetics of your home’s yard, we recommend stump grinding rather than stump removal. Stump removal is a highly invasive process that involves using heavy machinery to extract not only the tree stump but all of its attached roots too (which may be spread out far and wide across your land). With stump grinding, we’ll remove the visible remains of your tree quickly and efficiently while limiting any damage to the surrounding area.
Following an organic landscape care treatment plan can help improve the overall look of your grass and trees without any negative impacts on the environment. We recommend tree care products made from organic materials and environmentally friendly material as part of this treatment plan that is not only eco-friendly but safe for people, pets, and plants.
When it comes to the care of your trees and yard, we understand how important it is to find a tree expert you can trust. Thanks to our personalized and professional approach with our arborist visits and tree consultations, our customers rest easy knowing their tree’s health will always be our top priority.
