You get what you pay for in a consulting arborist

May 16, 2025

I take education and knowledge seriously. Here are classes I have attended just over the past 3 years. 245 hours toward 60 needed for recertification.

Knowledge and education costs in time and dollars. That is why I charge for my expertise.                                                        That "free" estimate isn't really free.
