Frequently Asked Questions in California

  • Yes! Weather can turn at any moment and cause extensive damage in a landscape (often at inopportune times) which can be scary to deal with. We are a trusted resource for you and available 24/7 to respond to emergency tree-related issues.

  • Yes, we are licensed and insured to operate in California.

  • We will not service trees within the minimum approach distance for power lines, typically 10 feet from primary lines. We may work closer to telecom or house drops, which sometimes require de-energization or line removal by the utility provider. Special tools and training ensure work is performed safely.

  • We regularly assess and modernize our fleet to handle any job. The tree's size, location, and condition determine the equipment used. Our resources include chippers, trucks, log loaders, aerial lifts, and partnerships with crane services for challenging or inaccessible tree removals.

  • The duration of a tree removal or pruning project depends on the tree’s size, condition, and location, and could range from one hour to multiple days. Schedule a consultation with one of our certified arborists to get an accurate estimate tailored to your needs.

  • Common tree issues in Northern California include inadequate irrigation, poor soil conditions, aphids, scales, foliar diseases like fire blight, anthracnose, and sudden oak death (Phytophthora ramorum). Additionally, tree roots often impact hardscapes or nearby structures, causing damage.

  • Common tree issues in Southern California include inadequate irrigation, poor soil conditions, aphids, scales, and foliar diseases. These challenges can impact tree health and overall landscape vitality if not properly addressed.

  • Yes. Schedule an appointment with one of our certified arborists to discuss your needs.

  • Typically, native species will do best. Newly planted trees of any kind will typically require supplemental irrigation until established. We have a variety of services to be able to help your trees thrive. Schedule an appointment with one of our certified arborists to assess your individual needs.

  • Individual cities require shrubs, limbs, branches, and other flammable materials to be cleared at varying distances from structures. This prevents “fire laddering,” where ground or grass fires spread to tree canopies through understory growth. Check with your local fire department for distance requirements in your area.

  • Yes, we manage thousands of palms across California, providing annual maintenance services such as fruit removal, dead frond trimming, and palm skinning. Palms are prone to diseases and pests and need regular fertilization for optimal health. Our certified arborists can create a customized care plan for your property.

  • Our arborists are trained to recognize insects and diseases that impact the tree population in California. Our science-backed plant health care services include targeted treatments and remedies for these issues. One of our certified arborists would be happy to develop a plan for your property.

  • California has two state trees: the Coast Redwood (Sequoia sempervirens) and the Giant Sequoia (Sequoiadendron giganteum). These iconic trees are known for their immense size, longevity, and ecological importance, representing California's diverse natural heritage.
