Tree Care Club

Membership Details

Description

Tarzan's Tree Care Club is a great way to keep a professional eye on your trees throughout the year and keep your property safe while avoiding expensive problems down the road. Trees are living creatures and are always changing. Because they change slowly it is easy to miss a developing problem until it is obvious. With preventative tree care, we provide frequent inspections and light maintenance work that can help you avoid expensive and catastrophic tree problems.

Save money and live stress free by taking care of problems while they are still small or preventing them all together. If you don’t know what to do with your trees, if you are gone for long periods of time and don’t want to worry, or if you just want help and want to learn more about your trees and land, Tarzan’s Tree Care club is for you.

Disclosure

Although it is not a requirement, the International Society of Arboriculture recommends that tree risk assessments be conducted by a current trained ISA certified arborist. Certification can be a useful credential which implies legitimacy however, it does not represent actual knowledge, skill, experience, ethics, or business standards. Ben Sanford has over 20 years in the tree care industry and is currently not a certified arborist. He was a certified arborist in the early years of his career, and since his certification he has continued to maintain high ethical standards in tree care and business and continues to serve the community by educating clients in the best practices of tree care. Tarzan’s Tree Service follows ISA standards, ANSI A300 standards and Best Management Practices for tree risk, assessment as closely as possible. Generally, a Level 1 assessment is offered to visually inspect a client’s property. If a potential hazard is detected, then a Level 2 assessment is provided for those specific cases. We do work with, consult with and subcontract other certified arborists for any work that requires those credentials.
