Benefits of having a Arborist for your tree service needs

In this industry, many find it harder and harder to get the results for a green yard. Even the trees' leaves seem to be a tone of yellow or light green, which could be a sign of something wrong. This is where the difference between a "tree guy" and an arborist become apparent. The "tree guy" usually will recommend putting "fertilizer down" or "say its cheaper to extract". Simple answers from a simple mindset, but it doesn't solve your real problem. Why is your grass not as green as the next yard, or why your tree leaves are yellowing.

Greener is better!

  • better sun absorption
  • curbside appeal
  • improved air filtration
  • improved absorption of noise pollution
  • increased water erosion
  • lowers the temperature 
Now in the case of an arborist, he will first examine the lawn for any exterior signs such as evasive insects, parasitic fungi, and signs of chemical contamination. Then, an experienced arborist will also take some samples of soil, sick leaves and examine the tree bark. Similar to a Doctor check-up, this is why some call arborists a "tree doctor". Once they find the cause of the problem, the arborist can then offer options. They will advise a few ways to save the tree, or if the owner wants extraction, our arborist can provide affordable tree services like tree removal.

Why is there no standard price for tree work?​

​Costs for tree services vary based on different factors between tree service companies. When trying to understand where the costs come from, you must first look at which service is being performed.
Picture
Many factors can determine the cost of tree removal from the size of the tree trunk, size of the tree's crown, and the proximity the tree is in a building or utility lines. Each of these factors can determine the final outcome of the price of each type of tree work. We break down each service here to help you understand the mindset of "tree company guys" and also Arborists, when bidding for work.
Tree Trimming Cost
 
Much like tree removal, tree trimming is based mostly on time. The cost structure of such work will be the same as tree removals. According to The International Society of Arboriculture, 9 out of 10 times a tree crew is hired for trimming, the tree will be trimmed incorrectly. Incorrect trimming can severely harm and even kill a tree. An ISA Certified Arborist should be the one to determine what pruning needs the tree has, how and when it should be done, and what qualifications are needed for the crew. Pruning types and styles can be very different and result in estimates for service that are widely different in cost. Most tree companies are pruning entirely too much out of the tree. It may look like you received more for your money, but actually they just caused your tree to go into shock. Next year, when your tree is the wrong color you may end up needing the services of a diagnostic arborist to help rehab the tree. This is a hidden cost of cheap service. When a tree is pruned correctly, it shouldn’t appear to be drastic in most cases. To the consumer, who is accustomed to hack job trimming, it may appear as though they didn’t get what they paid for when in fact, the tree has handled correctly for the first time.
Tree Removal Cost
 
Tree removal costs are mostly based on the labor. Because there are no significant material contributions to the job, the time a job takes is the main factor. Of course, there are costs to dispose of debris, replace and service equipment and travel time as well. In most cases, a professional certified arborist will be looking at time on site for a crew. So if a tree is going to take 5 hours to remove, the arborist would multiply the number of anticipated hours by the hourly cost. The hourly cost would include labor, general liability insurance, workmen’s comp insurance, disposal fees and all overhead wrapped into one hourly rate. Workers comp is the most expensive part of the job after labor and can be a major difference in estimates received. Never hire a tree service without workers comp. Not only does workers comp protect you from lawsuits resulting from personal injury, it also demonstrates that the company has financial stability. Some states require tree service companies to carry workers comp, but most do not, so you will have to specifically ask for that certificate. Typically, on a $2,000 tree removal you are paying for $1,300 in labor, $300 in workers’ comp, $150 in dump fees, and $150 in all other overhead such as fuel and oil and general liability insurance. 
Picture

These numbers can change a lot depending on the company structure, the safety culture, financial solvency, and professionalism. So how does this play out when you receive two bids? Let’s say you receive an estimate for $2,000 from a professional and reputable company, and a quote for $1,800 from "Competitor B” who is not quite as together but seemed otherwise okay. What value of the work are you losing in $200? Let's break it down. Competitor B has no workers comp and only has a cheap liability policy. The job should be $300 less at this point not $200. You are already paying an extra $100 for nothing at all and are wide open to losing your home in a lawsuit. It doesn’t stop there. Competitor B doesn’t do a nice clean up job and leaves ruts in the yard that you have to fix. Now you need a landscaper to fix your grass for a cost of $400. This is a hidden cost that most consumers never notice. Competitor B uses unskilled day labor that is unreliable, so instead of having a competent 5 man crew, they show up with 2-3 people. So this one day job now takes 2-3 days. How much is your time worth? Now for the real problem. One of the unskilled laborers has been injured. Competitor B doesn’t have workers comp because he is financially insolvent. This means the attorney will be after the property owner as the only recourse. You will be held liable as the default employer and be responsible for the medical bills, prescription drug costs, pain and suffering, and all of this will be to the tune of hundreds of thousands and possibly millions. It happens to somebody daily. The tree care industry has more fatalities and injuries than any other industry in the USA and you hired an under experienced crew with no workers comp and overpaid. Don’t be that person. What about a liability waiver? They never hold up in court.
​
Tree Fertilization and Treatment Cost

Plant Health Care is the industry term that would include all fertilization, control of pests, and disease. These costs will include material which may or may not be expensive, the labor, and overhead. Again, workers comp should always be required.  PHC applicators are required by state law to have an applicator's license issued either by the Structural Pest Control Board or the Department of Agriculture. This is very important as companies who do not have the correct credentials, usually don’t have the correct experience and can easily harm or even kill a tree by accident. Cheaper services often time use pre-packaged fertilizer blends and almost never check the soil. While some pre-packaged fertilizer blends are okay in some situations, you should have a soil sample taken by a professional arborist who can adjust the blend according to the soil. For instance, we find that often times the soil isn’t actually lacking the ingredients, but the  soil pH is simply too high. $10 worth of sulfur can fix the problem. 
Picture
So you pay an ISA Certified Arborist $100 for their time in a consultation, $50 for a soil sample, and $10 for sulfur to fix the issues. You are all in for $160. By contrast, if you are not the type to pay for professional advice and you have a relatively cheap company come fertilize two trees for $250 each, you have just paid $500 for no results at all and you still have the same problem. This is very common in Houston. Now, most trees do need to be fertilized once per year, at least. So most likely you will need the fertilization, but it will have no effect and possibly even be harmful if you don’t correct your pH first. Trees are the most valuable landscape asset and contribute significant value to your home and commercial properties, so be sure to get the correct advice. Sometimes your trees may be struggling and it isn’t related to a nutrient deficiency or pH. Soil compaction is a common problem and so is herbicide damage. You need an expert to help you understand what you should be doing so you don’t make matters worse.
