Most trees can be pruned all year. However, oak, elm, and certain birch trees should be pruned in the fall or winter when they are dormant to avoid insect and fungal infestation. 

Generally speaking, growth is maximized, and wound closure is quick if pruning takes place before the spring growth flush. Precision Tree & Shrub Service works throughout the winter, spring, summer, and fall.

Ornamental trees should be pruned every 1-2 years and larger trees should be pruned every 3 years for health, safety, and appearance. Storm-damaged branches should be pruned as soon as possible.

Precision Tree & Shrub Service is fully insured for liability and workman's compensation insurance which is a state requirement as well as a crucial feature of any contractor. It provides peace of mind for our homeowners, as well as our employees. Insurance costs for workers in this industry are extremely high because of the nature of our work.

We promote safety in all aspects of our business as a promise to our employees and customers alike. By emphasizing safety through certifications - The Electrical Hazards Awareness Program (EHAP), The Certified Treecare Safety Professional (CTSP) program, and regular training -- as well as our daily culture, we work to go home intact at the end of the day and to keep costs down.

Please don't hesitate to request a copy of our current insurance certificate to be sent to your home. The quickest and most common method is by email.

We are a safe company in a dangerous business. Our customers have been pleased with the time we took relative to the degree of difficulty of their service.

We always treat emergencies as a top priority, particularly when a tree has fallen on a house and it may not be sealed due to weather.

Several small ornamental trees may take 1-2 hours. A large tree removal service may take a full day or more.

When our estimator or office receives your authorization work contract, our production manager will contact you. 

A day and approximate time will be set up; however, please note that sometimes regularly scheduled work may be canceled on short notice due to dangerous weather or the emergency needs of others.

We make every effort to complete your tree work in a timely fashion while prioritizing safety.

Precision Tree & Shrub Service works on small ornamentals to the largest mature trees. You can count on us to give you professional care and service for each and every job - no matter how small or large.

Precision Tree & Shrub Service requests a 10% deposit to schedule work. If an estimator has discussed credit terms with you, then it will be described in detail on the authorization work contract.

Payment for completed work is generally expected upon completion. Our crew leader will review your work to ensure that each item on our contract is completed satisfactorily.

Please bring your concerns to the crew leader as soon as possible. Keeping our great reputation is important to us. We will do our utmost to make things right if damage occurs in the course of our work. Please read "Important Information" on the back of our proposal about turf and driveways.
