How it Works

Our arborist services provide professional tree care focused on tree health and safety. Our ISA-certified team leads each evaluation using science-backed expertise to diagnose problems and recommend the right course of action. View our full certifications and qualifications, and see what hundreds of Central Texas homeowners say about our work.

1

Schedule Your Consultation

Reach out by phone or online to schedule your arborist consultation. We'll ask about your concerns and set a convenient time for our arborist to visit. Just need a quote for tree work like trimming or removal? Estimates are always free.

2

On-Site Tree Evaluation

An arborist inspects your tree in person. We examine the trunk, branches, foliage, roots, and site conditions to identify any disease, pest issues, structural weaknesses, or safety hazards.

3

Receive Recommendations and Quote

After the visit, we provide a clear written report of our findings and a customized care plan. This includes recommendations (pruning, treatments, monitoring, etc.) and an upfront price quote. You only pay a deposit once you approve the quote and want to get scheduled.

What's Included

Tree Scouts shield

Comprehensive Tree Health Assessments

Each service begins with a detailed inspection. We evaluate your tree's structure, foliage, root zone, and surroundings to spot any signs of stress, disease, or pests. We'll walk with you and address any and all concerns you have and provide an easy-to-understand assessment.

Pest and Disease Diagnostics

Our arborists look for insect infestations, fungal diseases, and other biological issues. We use current best practices to accurately diagnose the cause of any decline, and we suggest eco-conscious treatments (like targeted sprays or cultural changes) to address infestations or infections.

Hazard and Risk Inspections

Safety is a key focus. We check for cracked limbs, weak forks, root damage, or nearby conflicts (such as power lines or structures). If a tree poses a hazard, we'll explain safe options. If removal is needed for safety, our team handles it carefully, respecting the rest of your landscape.

Customized Care Plans

Finally, we deliver personalized recommendations. This includes guidance on proper pruning, fertilization, pest management, or future monitoring. We explain every suggestion so you're fully informed. Our goal is to improve your trees' health and longevity. We even offer annual membership plans so you can rest knowing that your trees are taken care of year-round by the best.

Price Beat Promise

Got a written quote from another certified provider? We'll beat it. You deserve expert service at a fair price, and we're confident no one delivers better value than Tree Scouts.

Hired Tree Scouts for a pre-purchase tree assessment before closing on our home. Levi identified early-stage oak wilt on one tree and structural issues on another. That report saved us significant money in negotiations. Worth every penny of the consultation fee.

Common Questions

What happens during an arborist consultation?

Our arborist will conduct a thorough on-site inspection. We look at your tree's structure, health, and environment, checking for disease, pests, or damage. After evaluating everything, we explain our findings and provide a written report with recommendations for care or treatment, so you know exactly what your tree needs.

Do I really need a certified arborist?

Yes. Certified arborists have advanced training in tree biology and safety. They can correctly diagnose problems and apply best practices for care. At Tree Scouts, having an ISA-certified arborist means we use proven methods to prune or treat trees safely and effectively, without causing hidden damage.

Is the tree health assessment free?

No. A tree health assessment or consultation is a paid service - you're getting a certified arborist's time, an accurate diagnosis, and a written report of findings and recommendations. Estimates are different. If you want a quote for tree work like trimming, removal, stump grinding, or planting, the estimate is completely free with no obligation, even if you don't end up hiring us.
