Informally, an arborist’s job description can simply be titled, “tree doctor.” Here at McCullough’s, we have four arborists certified by the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA). This means that they have all passed a comprehensive examination and continually keep up to date with the education provided by the ISA. As an arborist, our guys are educated in the art and science of planting, caring for and maintaining trees.
The next question that may arise is, “When would I need an arborist?” Good question, it can be related to, “At what point do I need to go to the doctor?” Treat your trees as if they need doctors like people do. You can fix minor injuries with a first-aid kit and you can trim a small tree’s branches that are shading too much of your window with shears. Whenever you fall ill or become injured and decide it’s time to see the doctor or go to the hospital, the same decision making process should be used for your trees. Call us, the tree experts, and let us take all the measures possible to ensure your trees stay healthy and to nurture any sick ones back to health.
