Our Services

The most basic method of tree care is pruning. Ensuring a tree has proper branch structure to withstand wind, snow, and ice loads, is part of what we do at Zen Tree Care. Taking the greatest of care to follow ANSI standards, our ISA certified arborists insist upon excellence in every cut they make. We were once known as "Tree Surgeons", and at Zen Tree Care we still execute our work with surgical precision.

Trimming trees and shrubs helps ensure safety, promote plant health, and maintain beauty. Improper pruning can weaken branch structure, cause unnecessary wounding, and encourage epicormic growth (suckers) that can divert energy from those areas of the tree that need it most. When you need the help of a tree surgeon, Zen Tree Care is the only call you need to make.

No Spur Pruning

Unless your tree is being removed, DON'T allow spurs to be used in the commission of any tree work. Excessive damage by spurs increases routes of entry by pathogens & insects.

Our consultation services offer personalized guidance on tree care practices, arboriculture, and maintenance strategies. We work closely with clients to address their specific tree care needs and provide tailored solutions.

There are instances whereby formal written reports are necessary to illuminate the condition of a particular tree or group of trees. Construction projects, insurance requirements, real estate valuations, are some of the times when it is necessary to have a certified arborist present an objective report which can be used to base informed decisions. 

Ice storms decimate  trees within the cityscape, and create potential hazards and issues that can compromise tree vigor and safety. Through the implementation of proven industry techniques, Zen Tree Care will restore your tree to a level which will satisfy your need for safety, and the trees' need to recuperate.

"Dead, Dying or Dangerous", the Zen Tree Care mantra for tree removal

If you believe the tree you want to remove falls out of our mandate, please feel free to call regardless. We may have suggestions that serve both you, and the problematic tree.
