Get answers to common questions about professional tree health assessments in Orlando.
How much does a tree health assessment cost?
Assessment costs vary based on the number of trees, complexity of issues, and whether a written report is needed. Basic consultations for 1-3 trees typically range from $75-$200. Comprehensive assessments with detailed written reports are $200-$500+. We provide exact pricing after understanding your needs.
How long does a tree health assessment take?
On-site assessments typically take 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on the number of trees and complexity of issues. You'll receive a verbal summary during the visit, with written reports delivered within 3-5 business days for comprehensive assessments.
Can you save a sick or dying tree?
It depends on the issue and how early we catch it. Many tree health problems are treatable if diagnosed early—fungal infections, pest infestations, nutrient deficiencies, and some diseases respond well to proper treatment. However, some conditions (like advanced oak wilt or lethal bronzing in palms) have no cure. Honest diagnosis is essential.
What's the difference between a free estimate and a health assessment?
Free estimates are quick evaluations for specific services (removal, trimming, etc.). A tree health assessment is a comprehensive diagnostic service where we thoroughly examine your tree's condition, identify problems, and develop treatment plans—similar to a doctor's examination versus a quick consultation.
Should I get an assessment before buying a house with large trees?
Absolutely. Large trees can be significant assets or major liabilities. A pre-purchase assessment identifies potential problems, estimates future maintenance costs, and alerts you to trees that may need removal. This information can be valuable in negotiations and helps you plan for future expenses.
Do you provide treatment after the assessment?
Yes. If treatment is needed and desired, we can provide many services including pruning, pest treatment, soil amendments, and ongoing care programs. However, we never pressure you—our assessment provides honest, unbiased information so you can make informed decisions, whether you choose us for treatment or not.
