FAQs
What makes your team qualified to care for my trees and shrubs in Santa Monica?
Our arborists come from diverse expert backgrounds including plant pathology, forestry, and botany, and we hold a California Contractors License (#735832). As active members of the International Society of Arborists and the Tree Care Industry Association, we prioritize ongoing education. This combination of formal training, decades of hands-on experience, and a commitment to best practices ensures we can properly diagnose and treat the specific needs of your landscape.
How can you help with drought and heat stress affecting my landscaping?
For Santa Monica residents dealing with lawn drought stress and plant heat stress, our approach is proactive. Our arborists assess your trees and shrubs for early signs of stress, such as leaf scorch or wilt. We then recommend tailored solutions, which may include strategic deep-root watering guidance, proper mulching to retain soil moisture, and selective pruning to reduce a plant's water demand without compromising its health or structure, helping your landscape become more resilient.
Do you handle both tree and shrub removal, and what's the process?
Yes, we provide both tree and shrub removal services. Our process begins with a detailed assessment by one of our professional arborists to evaluate the health, structure, and safety risks of the plant. We then develop a removal plan that prioritizes the safety of your property, surrounding plants, and our crew. For over 40 years, we've served the Westside, utilizing the proper techniques and equipment to ensure efficient, clean, and safe removal, followed by responsible disposal or recycling of the material.
