Why should I hire an arborist?

Hiring an Arborist is a big decision.

What we do is very dangerous, and removing trees is always our last resort. Tree work should be done only by those trained and equipped to work safely in trees. With a wealth of training, experience and techniques at our disposal, arborists are knowledgeable professionals whose priority is the health of your trees and safety of those living and working around them.

For a healthy & long life, trees need proper maintenance, and no doubt about it – proper maintenance is investment. Given appropriate care, trees add value to people and property beyond a dollar value, while those who fall into neglect can create liability no one imagines.

An arborist, tree surgeon, or (less commonly) arboriculturist, is a professional in the practice of arboriculture, which is the cultivation, management, and study of individual trees, shrubs, vines, and other perennial woody plants in dendrology and horticulture

The difference between an Arborist and a Certified Arborist

Certified Arborists have achieved a level of knowledge in the area and science of tree care through at least three years experience and have passed a comprehensive examination developed by some of the nation’s leading tree care experts. They must continue their education to maintain their certification.

Blue Ribbon Tree & Landscape Specialists, Inc. has two Certified Arborists on staff and a highly-skilled team of groundsmen. Offering free quotes, we are here to provide honest, reliable evaluations and safe & fair tree care services.

Andy came strongly recommended to me from two of my colleagues at work who use Blue Ribbon. When I asked him to take a look at a couple big cedars on my property I was pleasantly surprised when he told that they didn’t need any work for at least a couple more years. Andy clearly put the customer first which I appreciated.

We have used Blue Ribbon Tree & Landscape for the past 6 years and have recommended them to everyone in our neighborhood. Blue Ribbon is a company run by people who are “old school” and do things the right way, the first time, with quality. If they don’t think a tree should be cut down, they will tell you and explain why.

They are not about making money as much as they are about forming long term relationships with their clients. They have always gone the extra mile to do the right thing and have always come in at price that was at or below the competition. If you want to sleep at night in a big storm knowing that you are safe from falling trees, get Blue Ribbon, they know trees!
