Arborist Consultation in Charlotte, NC

Not sure if a tree is dying, dangerous, or just needs a trim? We'll take a look and give you a straight answer.

Arborist Consultation in Charlotte, NC

Not every tree problem requires a chainsaw. Sometimes what you need is someone who understands trees to take a look and tell you what's going on. Is that oak in your Myers Park backyard dying, or just stressed from last summer's drought? Should you remove the leaning pine, or is it stable? What's the best tree to plant in your South End yard that won't cause problems in 20 years?

That's what our consultations are for. With 10+ years of experience working with Charlotte's tree species and growing conditions, we can assess the health of your trees, identify problems, and recommend practical solutions. We know which species thrive in Mecklenburg County's Piedmont clay soils, which ones struggle, and how Charlotte's hot summers and wet weather patterns affect tree health over time.

Give us a call at (704) 749-0642 for a free estimate. We'll come out, look at your trees, and give you honest, practical advice — not a sales pitch.

What We Offer

Our arborist consultation services cover everything you need for your Charlotte property.

Tree Health Evaluation

We look at the whole tree — trunk, canopy, root zone — and check for disease, decay, pest damage, and anything that could make it a hazard. You get an honest answer about where things stand.

Species-Specific Advice

A willow oak doesn't need the same care as a loblolly pine. We tailor our recommendations to the actual species on your property and how they handle Charlotte's clay soil, heat, and humidity.

Planting Recommendations

Choosing the right tree for the right spot matters. We help you select species that will thrive in Charlotte's Piedmont clay soil, handle the summer heat, and fit the space without causing problems down the road.

Risk Assessment

If you're worried about a tree failing — maybe it's leaning, has a crack, or lost a major limb — we evaluate the risk and give you a clear recommendation on whether it needs to come down or can be managed.

Treatment Plans

If the tree can be saved, we'll tell you exactly what to do — targeted pruning, soil work, pest treatment, or changes to how you water and mulch. Practical steps, not a textbook.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about arborist consultation in Charlotte, NC.

When should I get an arborist consultation?
Anytime you're concerned about a tree's health, planning new plantings, worried about a tree's stability, or before starting a construction project near existing trees. It's also smart to get an assessment before buying a property with large, mature trees.
What can an arborist tell me that I can't see myself?
A lot. Internal decay, early signs of disease, root problems, and structural weaknesses aren't always visible to the untrained eye. We know what to look for and can catch problems early, before they become expensive or dangerous.
Do you provide consultations for commercial properties?
Yes. We work with property managers, developers, and business owners across Charlotte and Mecklenburg County. Whether you need a tree inventory, risk assessment, or maintenance plan, we can help.
