Landscapers Sherman Oaks CA | Call Arbor Essence

We approach this common local issue with a preservation-first mindset. Our ISA Board-Certified Master Arborist will conduct a site evaluation to assess the tree's health and root structure. Instead of immediate removal, we explore solutions like strategic root pruning, installing root barriers designed to protect hardscapes, and recommending lawn alternatives or regrading that coexist with the tree. For damaged edging, our landscape construction team can repair or reinstall materials using methods that minimize future root conflict, ensuring both your tree's longevity and your landscape's integrity.

Performed by our ASCA Registered Consulting Arborist, a risk assessment is a detailed, scientific evaluation of your tree's structure, health, and site conditions. We examine for signs of decay, weak branch unions, root issues, and overall vitality, considering factors like soil type and exposure to our local Santa Ana winds. The assessment provides a clear, written report outlining any identified risks, their likelihood, and potential consequences. This expert diagnosis is crucial for making informed decisions about tree care, preservation, or necessary removal to protect your Sherman Oaks property.

Yes, tree transplanting is a specialty service we offer, backed by over 20 years of experience and notable projects like those at Universal Studios. Success depends on species, size, health, and season. Our Board-Certified Master Arborist first conducts a thorough evaluation to determine viability. Using specialized techniques and equipment, we carefully extract the root ball, prepare the new site with optimal soil conditions, and execute the move with minimal stress to the tree. Post-transplant, we provide a detailed care plan to ensure successful establishment in its new location on your property.
