Trees are beautiful features in any yard, providing shade and a way to monitor the changing of the seasons. They also need to be maintained like other plants. However, their height and the dangers involved with pruning them often require professional help. If you've been worried about that swaying branch near your roof or about the health of your favorite oak, consider the following factors when looking for a tree care service. 

Desired Qualities in an Arborist

1. A Solid Reputation 

Take the time to evaluate the company's online reviews and seek recommendations from family and friends. You can also ask the arborists for referrals or to provide examples of their past work.

2. A Commitment to Safety

Ask the company you are considering hiring about their commitment to safety, the equipment they use, and recent accidents involving employees, customers, or their property. Make sure any business you work with is licensed, bonded, certified, and insured to reduce liability. 

3. Fair Estimates

Compare tree care companies by asking several businesses to bid on the same job. Look for one that offers a fair estimate that includes all of the services you need. For instance, the lowest bid might not include cleanup and branch haul-away, so make sure to consider the package deal.
