WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

 

OH MY GOD they did such amazing work!! The crew was kind and easy going and the work they did was fast and efficient. They completed extra clean-up of brush and when I told them I use clippings and chips in my yard, they chipped up everything and left me what I needed. I plan to continue to work with General Tree and their awesome team.

SAFE TREE REMOVAL BY EXPERT CREWS

Having any tree removed requires skill to make sure it’s done safely and without damage to your home, vehicles, or other trees. It’s even more precarious when that tree is near powerlines, buildings, or in tight quarters to other trees.

General Tree Service has experienced crews who do this on a daily basis so no matter how complex your removal, we use the proper techniques and right equipment. Safety devices are placed to control traffic and limbs are secured when lowered to the ground. Of course, all debris is removed once we’re done.

Tree Trimming and Pruning is Vital for Healthy Trees

Pruning your trees on a regular basis is necessary to keep them healthy and structurally sound. Improper pruning can cause damage, which is why our certified arborists follow ANSI A300 standards approved by the TCIA.
Tree pruning and trimming can be done any time, which is why our motto is “It’s always a good time to prune”. Whether we’re doing hazard reduction to remove dead branches or specialty pruning for fruit tree production, we have a clear objective for each tree.

Benefits of pruning:

  • Lower humidity helps prevent fungal infections.
  • Better airflow in canopy decreases the risk of breakage.
  • Increases light penetration.

Emergency Tree Service

Dealing with trees downed by a storm requires the right equipment and experience to prevent further damage. Having trained professionals make all the difference between having the job done right and incurring more destruction when an inexperienced company doesn’t follow proper procedures.

All our employees receive training in proper safety procedures as we’re not only concerned about our crews, but also your family and property. Standard procedures include wearing appropriate personal protection equipment, state of the art equipment and techniques to lower large limbs, and placing safety devices to control pedestrian and vehicular traffic.

What is an Arborist?

There are a lot of companies that advertise themselves as tree service professionals. However, not all of them are qualified to expertly perform work on trees. At General Tree Service, we employ multiple certified arborists to provide the highest and most qualified service around.

The designation of “arborist” is only earned once a trainee has completed multiple years of learning and fieldwork. Once they meet the proper qualifications, they become certified through the International Society of Arboriculture. The ISA certification is the gold standard for designating that a person is an expert in tree service.

Tree Risk Assessments and Arborist Consultation

If you have a tree on your property that looks worse year after year, a tree risk assessment can help put your mind at ease. A tree risk assessment is a process performed by a certified arborist by which we can determine the probability of the tree falling and causing harm. A total tree analysis is done as part of the assessment so that you will know exactly what needs to happen to mitigate the risk your trees pose. After the tree risk assessment is performed a Risk Mitigation plan lets you assess liability and be proactive to prevent future damage or injury.

We have created Tree Preservation Plans for commercial developments of all sizes. You'll receive written documentation showing which trees stay and which need to be removed along with on-site supervision to implement the plan. Tree Preservation Plans are an important part of landscape planning as the landscape around your property grows over the years.

Stump Grinding

Stump removal is an essential part of tree services. Stump removal is beneficial because it:

  • Removes the eyesore of a rotting stump
  • Prevents growth of wood-eating fungus
  • Denies habitat to termites and ants
  • Rehabilitates the landscape where the tree once stood
  • Prevents regrowth from the stump

At General Tree Service, we remove stumps with a stump grinder. A stump grinder is a special machine that grinds a stump into sawdust even below the level of the surrounding ground. Stump grinding is a quick and easy process that completes any tree removal project and once the stump is gone you are free to replant the area to restore the beauty of your landscaping.

Ornamental Insect and Disease Control

We use an integrated approach to strengthen a plant’s health to protect against plant disease and insect infestation. Some of the strategies we use for plant health care include:

  • Care for Dogwood Anthracnose
  • Elm tree protection for Elm bark beetle
  • Birch tree treatment for Bronze Birch Borer
  • Leaf spot control for ash, willow, and sycamore trees
  • Home fruit tree orchard programs
  • Rhododendron and Azalea protection from Azalea Lace Bug

Our staff of certified arborists and plant experts is committed to working with you to create a beautiful and healthy landscape. Our year-round programs offer inspections to catch issues early as that’s when treatments are most successful.

Our technicians are trained to recognize insects, disease, soil management, and cultural problems and will treat affected plants only when needed. This results in a healthier landscape and benefits our environment by limiting the number of materials applied.

Your landscape is the first impression that you give to visitors. Trust its health and care to the best. Call General Tree Service in Beaverton at (503)-656-2656 today for all of your tree service needs.
