Whole-tree evaluation
Our arborist walks every tree of concern on your Forest Hill property and assesses species, approximate age, condition class, canopy density and color, deadwood, and overall vigor. We are building a baseline picture of each tree's health — what is thriving, what is stressed, and what is heading for trouble.
Structure & defects
We evaluate structural integrity: co-dominant stems, included bark, cracks, cavities, lean, and reaction wood. Suspect areas are sounded for internal decay. Structural problems are the ones that drop limbs on houses and cars — finding them early means a $400 prune instead of a $4,000 emergency.
Roots, flare & soil
Because so much tree decline starts underground, we check the root flare (is it buried?), look for girdling roots and root-zone compaction, and assess soil and drainage. In DFW's alkaline clay this is often where the real story is — and where the cheapest, highest-impact fixes live.
Pest & disease screening
We screen for the diseases and pests that actually hit Tarrant County trees — oak wilt, bacterial leaf scorch, iron chlorosis, anthracnose, borers, scale, and more — and, where symptoms are ambiguous, recommend lab confirmation before any treatment. The goal is an accurate diagnosis, not a guess.
Your written report
You receive a written report: a tree-by-tree summary, the issues found with photos, and a prioritized plan that separates do-this-now from monitor from no-action-needed. About a third of our inspections end with us telling the owner their trees are healthy and need nothing — and that is a valid, money-saving result.
