Question Answers
As an Orange County homeowner, what should I know about soil compaction and drip irrigation for my trees and shrubs?
Soil compaction from foot traffic and construction is common in our area and restricts water and oxygen from reaching roots, stressing your plants. Similarly, hard water can clog drip irrigation emitters. Our certified arborists assess your soil health during consultations and can recommend solutions like vertical mulching to aerate compacted soil. For irrigation, we check system functionality as part of our shrub and tree care services and can advise on maintenance or filtration to prevent clogs, ensuring your landscape gets the water it needs.
What makes Peterson's approach to tree pruning and trimming different?
Our founder, Jeff Peterson, is a certified ISA Arborist, and our entire team is trained to adhere to International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) standards. This means we prune for the tree's long-term structural health and safety, not just aesthetics. We use proper techniques that promote healing and prevent disease, a practice honed over four decades. For fruit trees, this expertise is especially valuable, as correct pruning directly impacts fruit production and tree vigor.
Do you offer services beyond tree removal, like ongoing care or landscaping?
Absolutely. While we are experts in safe tree removal, our focus is on comprehensive plant health care. We provide full tree and shrub care services, including planting, disease and insect management, cabling, and transplanting. We also handle landscape construction, installation, and maintenance—from lawn care to greenscape construction. Think of us as your single point of contact for a healthy, beautiful outdoor space, backed by arborist knowledge and over 35 years serving Orange County.
