FAQ
What is it exactly that we do?
What makes Colorado Arborists different than other tree care companies?
We appreciate the functional and monetary value that trees give us. We know how important trees are, and the needs that they have in the high desert climate of Colorado. We believe that below ground care is the most impactful thing that you can do to improve the health of your trees and green space.
We prioritize the health of trees in our pruning goals and work with our clients to find the right balance between tree health and the needs that we have as urban homeowners.
We love trees and have options for both above and below ground maintenance for their health and to maximize their benefits. We love talking about trees!
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to have tree work done?
Trees are so unique in all their different species, shapes, sizes, and locations. It is not possible to give an accurate quote for pruning, root zone therapy, or removal over the phone or from a picture. The best way to get pricing is to contact us and have us out for a free estimate.
What is your service area?
Our headquarters is in Wellington. Typically we serve most of Larimer County including Fort Collins, Loveland and Windsor. However, we love to travel! We can be willing to travel for special projects, just ask!
What is a certified arborist?
Improper work practices can permanently damage trees, and unsafe work practices can cause accidents, possibly damaging property or persons. A certified arborist is a verified professional in the industry with at least 3 years of experience, or a bachelors degree in a related field.
Is my tree safe?
By definition, all trees pose risk. It is our responsibility to inform and educate homeowners and clients about the factors that contribute to varying levels of tree risk, and to clearly communicate our professional assessment of the specific risk level associated with their tree. Additionally, we can come to solutions for maintaining the health and productivity of your outdoor space to increase its functional value of your most significant investment, your home.
What is the difference between an estimate and a consultation?
A free estimate is when a homeowner or client already has a plan or scope of work that they would like to complete, and we give them our best price.
A consultation is typically different in that it is more of a request for knowledge and specialized recommendations for specific tree needs. For example, a consultation would be to create a plan to prioritize tree health before new construction begins.
