Arborist Consulting

What Is Arborist Consulting?

Arborist consulting goes beyond basic tree care. It provides expert advice and strategic planning for complex tree-related decisions. Whether you are buying property, planning construction, dealing with tree disputes, or managing a large landscape, professional arborist consulting helps you make informed choices that save money and protect valuable trees.

Our certified arborists have the training and experience to evaluate trees from multiple perspectives. We consider health, safety, legal requirements, property values, and long-term management. We provide written reports, expert testimony, and detailed recommendations you can use for planning, permits, and decision-making. When you need more than just standard tree services in Clovis, consulting is the answer.

Think of us as tree experts who help you navigate complicated situations. We bring objectivity, knowledge, and professional insight to problems that do not have simple answers.

Our Arborist Consulting Services

We offer a wide range of consulting services for residential, commercial, and municipal clients. Each consultation is customized to address your specific questions and concerns. We provide written reports with photos, measurements, and detailed findings that you can share with contractors, attorneys, insurance companies, or local officials.

Our consulting services include:

• Tree risk assessments: We evaluate trees for structural defects, disease, and hazards that could lead to failure.
• Pre-purchase evaluations: Before you buy property, we assess tree health and identify potential problems or removal costs.
• Construction impact analysis: We determine how planned construction will affect existing trees and recommend protection measures.
• Tree preservation planning: We create plans to save valuable trees during development and ensure compliance with local ordinances.
• Tree appraisals: We provide professional valuations for insurance claims, legal disputes, or tax purposes.
• Expert witness testimony: We provide courtroom testimony in cases involving tree damage, disputes, or liability issues.

No matter what tree-related challenge you face, we provide clear answers backed by science and industry standards.

Who Benefits from Arborist Consulting

Homeowners hire us when they need expert advice about problem trees, pre-purchase assessments, or construction projects. If you are building an addition, installing a pool, or adding utilities, we help you protect existing trees and avoid costly mistakes. We also work with homeowners involved in disputes with neighbors or insurance companies over tree damage.

Developers and builders use our services for site planning and tree preservation. We help you meet local tree ordinances, obtain necessary permits, and protect trees during construction. This saves time, reduces conflicts with regulators, and often increases property values by preserving mature trees.

Property managers, HOAs, and commercial property owners rely on our consulting for long-term tree management plans. We help you budget for future tree care, prioritize maintenance, and make strategic decisions about which trees to keep, treat, or remove. Our recommendations help you balance safety, aesthetics, and costs. When you need comprehensive care beyond consulting, we also offer tree health and maintenance services.

What to Expect During a Consultation

Every consultation begins with understanding your specific needs and concerns. We discuss your goals, timeline, and budget. Then we conduct a thorough on-site inspection of the trees in question. We document conditions with photos, take measurements, and gather data.

After the site visit, we analyze our findings and prepare a detailed written report. This report explains our observations, provides professional opinions, and offers clear recommendations. Reports typically include photos, diagrams, and references to industry standards and best practices.

For complex projects, we may coordinate with other professionals like engineers, landscape architects, or attorneys. We are available to answer follow-up questions and provide clarification as needed. If your situation requires actual tree removal or other services, we can handle that too.
