Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is a consulting certified arborist?
    Consulting certified arborists are tree experts — diagnosing tree disorders, advising on tree management resources, and generally advocating for the health and well-being of all trees. Whether providing testimony for litigation or protecting trees from construction improvements, consulting arborists are the go-to resource for all things trees.
  • What does an arborist do?
    An arborist preserves, plants, protects, and generally manages trees, shrubs, and other woody perennial woody plants. Arborists study and care for trees, with expert knowledge in pruning, disease, and decay.
  • How do you become a certified arborist?
    Certified arborists have additional training and experience that set themselves apart from other tree consultants. Most have earned a degree in the field of arboriculture, horticulture, landscape architecture, or forestry from a regionally accredited educational institute. Organizations such as the ISA provide rigorous training and guidelines for certification that include one to three years of experience, depending on formal education level, and adherence to a strict code of ethics.
  • How much does an arborist cost?
    Fees for hiring an arborist vary widely depending on the situation. Each project is evaluated individually and a cost estimate is agreed upon before any work begins. Arborists may be hired for simple pruning or trimming, for removing an enormous tree, or for consulting on the risk of a dying or dead tree — all of which would take a different amount of time, effort and equipment.
  • What’s the most common tree consulting service?
    The most common tree consulting service utilized by Ryan Lawn & Tree customers is the tree risk assessment. When this service is requested, Matt Evans will consult with the client to evaluate a single tree or an area of trees to determine if there are any dangers or risk factors that have the potential to cause harm.
