We might be perceived to be in the business of “chopping down trees,” however, trees are precious and a necessity of the environment to provide a habitat for wildlife and the quality of our lives. As an Arborist, I believe it is crucial we protect trees. Well maintained trees help produce oxygen, provide shade which in turn helps keep temperatures down, helps reduce noise and pollution levels and naturally make our environment aesthetically pleasing to the eye. As much as possible, I care for the tree, opting to save its integrity, by carefully selecting the best course of action, and not lopping branches off to the detriment of the tree.
