The Best Choice For Your Business: Foothill Tree Service
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.

When that is the case, our tree crews are specially trained and equipped to safely and efficiently remove trees from your landscape.

Plant Health Care
Our Plant Health Care Philosophy
At Foothill Tree Service, our philosophy is that we only work with effective, safe processes and products to help your trees and shrubs not just survive, but thrive! We understand that although we live in a beautiful corner of the world, we also have specific stresses that plants and trees experience, so we endeavor to provide the best care no matter what environment stresses they encounter.
Our Services
Beetle Bark Treatment
We care deeply about protecting our community from bark beetles. They have killed an estimated 129 million trees in California since 2010. Years of drought stress have caused beetle populations to skyrocket! When you see dead trees or obvious bark beetle damage in your trees, it might be too late to save the tree, but you can be proactive! The cost to remove a tree is roughly 10 times the average cost of treatment.
Our plant health care team at Foothill Tree Service uses a state-of-the-art treatment protocol that specifically targets the beetle in one single trunk injection. This treatment has proven to protect your trees for two years after treatment. We inject the protocol directly into the vascular system of your tree. This application involves no sprays, no mess, and is environmentally friendly.
Maintaining the Health of Your Plants
Our region of California is blessed with a natural beauty that is hard to find elsewhere. Trees increase property values and add to the beauty of your home. Therefore, it is incredibly important to take care of your trees and help protect them against pests and diseases. Here at Foothill Tree Service, we offer many different plant health care plans designed to help protect your trees in the most effective way possible.
We develop methods and products to improve soil health, retain water properly, and make trees stronger and more resilient to insect and disease problems. We use pesticide alternatives whenever we can and when we can’t, we find the safest possible products that target only harmful things and are safe around pets, kids and wildlife. We are here to make our region even more beautiful and truly care for the trees and plants.
Homeowners often have to deal with issues such as bark beetles, oak wilt, insects feeding on fruit and nut trees, and sudden oak death, as well as many other pests and diseases. In addition to the environmentally friendly products we use, we are constantly looking for better products and methods with the highest efficacy that also have the least impact on the environment, pets and family.
