General Tree Care

Highly Qualified Tree Care Experts

At Foothill Tree Service, our certified arborists have gone through extensive training to better understand the best way to help your trees. They are  Tree Risk Assessment Qualified TRAQ by the International Society of Arborists (ISA) to provide risk assessments as well. Along with these qualifications, we are very proud to have been accredited by the T.C.I.A. as a company.

An ISA-certified arborist has to go through years of continuous education and rigorous testing to understand the complexity of a tree’s needs, their growth habits and tendencies, the pests that invade them and how to best stop them. They are also trained on how to properly and safely climb, treat, prune and care for your trees.

When one of our certified arborists looks at your trees, you can be confident that they are well-versed in the science, diagnosis, proper and safe treatment of trees. Our crews are trained in the science of tree health and safety because you deserve only the best for your property. We follow the best management practices of the International Society of Arboriculture and maintain a rigorous education and training program so we are always up to date.

Tree Removal and Clearing

First and foremost, we are tree conservationists who want to help you save your trees. While we desire first to fix tree problems so we can save trees, sometimes it is necessary to remove ones that have died, are a high risk for failure or have unfortunately already failed and caused damage. When that is the case, our tree crews are specially trained and equipped to safely and efficiently remove trees from your landscape.

Our tree removal and clearing services include:

• Dangerous removals
• Dead and diseased trees
• Hazardous locations (such as around power lines)
• Large projects
• Lift truck and crane removals
• Storm damage removals
