Hiring a Certified Arborist
What Is a Certified Arborist?
When you hire a certified arborist for your tree service needs, you select a highly trained specialist in tree care and maintenance. An arborist certified by the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) has demonstrated that he has the knowledge, experience, and training to provide you with appropriate tree services.
All certified arborists are required to pass an extensive exam developed by the leaders in tree care. Additionally, a certified arborist must participate in continuing education to learn the latest advancements in tree care and maintain their certification.

Selecting a Certified Arborist:
- Check for ISA Arborist Certification

- Proof of Insurance
- Memberships to Professional Tree Service Organizations
Additionally, do not accept tree service based solely on the lowest estimate. You should first consider the experience, credentials, and references to determine which tree service company will best meet your needs and budget. Be aware of door-to-door offers and fly-by-night tree service companies—improper tree trimming and removal can be dangerous and costly to correct.
