The Treesavers Mission

Treesavers is dedicated to providing sustainable solutions to tree and 

land management issues and offering the highest quality in tree care.

About Us

Our team of certified arborists are highly skilled in the art and science of tree care. From the care of a single specimen to the management of forest lots we have programs to fit any need. We are passionate about taking care of your trees in a scientific manner using sustainable techniques that are minimally invasive to your property and the environment. Our passion is trees and the people that love them.

How It Works

Our arborist’s are well trained and licensed. We adhere to the best management and safety practices as mandated by OSHA and the ANSI A300 standards for tree care. Currently 50% of our staff are certified arborists through the International Society of Arboriculture. Our safety program is lead by a Certified Tree Safety Professional.

Solutions

1. We promote and encourage pruning of trees only when necessary. Pruning is inherently a stressful activity. There are right and wrong ways to prune a tree. Over-pruning disrupts the photosynthetic process, leading in many instances to premature decline as well as disfiguration. Prune for safety, health, growth training, and fire hazard reduction purposes.
2. We offer a full range of landscape installation services. No project is too small or large. We recognize each property is unique and special with differing needs.
3. We specialize in drought tolerant native plantings utilizing drip irrigation.
4. We encourage you to recycle. We supply fresh chipped tree material as a wonderful source of mulch to select plants and trees as needed (some restrictions apply). This helps provide needed nutrients (particularly N & C), and aids with moderating soil temperatures and decreasing the future need for water.

Testimonials

"So Happy With Your Services! I recently had to have a very large tree removed from my yard, which was surrounded by my brand new patio and my husband’s flower garden…..very tight quarters. Not only did the job go off without a hitch, but when your team left we were pleased to find minimal disruption to our property. A beautiful new tree was planted and our yard is beautiful. Your courteous service and knowledgeable staff made me feel valued as a customer. I’ll be calling you again."

"A tree in very close proximity to our home was severely damaged in the February 2014 ice storm. We hired Treesavers, and were highly impressed with the level of technical skill and professionalism exhibited in safely removing this tree. It is something that is hard to truly appreciate until you see them in action."
