Frequently Asked Questions about tree service

Do you offer free estimates for tree service in Chalmette?

Yes, we provide free estimates for most tree services including removal, pruning, and disease treatment. Our arborists will visit your property, assess the work needed, evaluate access and equipment requirements, and provide a detailed written quote. Emergency services during storms may have different pricing structures given the immediate response requirements and dangerous conditions. Estimates include labor, equipment, debris removal, and any permit fees for St. Bernard Parish compliance.

Are you licensed and insured for tree work in Louisiana?

Absolutely. We maintain Louisiana arborist licensing, full liability insurance, and workers compensation coverage for all crew members. Our ISA certifications demonstrate professional expertise, and our insurance protects your property in the unlikely event of accidents. We can provide proof of insurance and licensing documentation upon request, and many of our clients require this for their records before we begin work.

What areas do you service around Chalmette?

We serve all of St. Bernard Parish including Chalmette, Meraux, Arabi, Poydras, Violet, and surrounding communities. Our local focus allows rapid response throughout the parish, particularly important during hurricane season when emergency calls spike. If you're outside St. Bernard Parish, contact us—we can often accommodate nearby areas depending on project scope and scheduling.

How quickly can you respond to emergency tree situations?

We maintain 24/7 emergency availability with crews positioned throughout St. Bernard Parish for rapid response. During active storm events and immediately afterward, we typically respond within 2-4 hours depending on call volume and access conditions. Life-safety situations—trees on structures, blocking access, or threatening utilities—receive highest priority. Our emergency number connects you directly to dispatch coordinators who can provide realistic response timelines based on current conditions.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept cash, checks, all major credit cards, and can work with insurance companies for storm damage claims. For larger projects, we can arrange payment schedules with deposits securing your scheduled work date. Emergency services typically require payment upon completion unless pre-arranged otherwise. We provide detailed invoices itemizing all work performed for your records and insurance documentation needs.

Do you handle the cleanup and debris removal?

Yes, complete debris removal is included in all our services. We cut wood into manageable sections, chip brush and small branches on-site, and haul away all material. For customers who want firewood, we can cut and stack usable wood at no extra charge—just let us know during the estimate. We leave your property clean, with disturbed areas raked and any lawn damage minimized through proper equipment placement and operational techniques.

Frequently Asked Questions about Certified Arborist Reports

Why would I need a certified arborist report for my Chalmette property?

Arborist reports serve multiple purposes. Insurance companies require them for claims involving tree damage to structures. Real estate transactions need tree assessments for high-value properties. Permit applications for heritage tree removal require professional documentation. Legal disputes with neighbors over tree issues need expert opinions. Property development projects need tree inventory and preservation plans. Banks require them for construction loans near significant trees.

What's included in a certified arborist report?

Comprehensive reports include detailed tree inventory with species, sizes, and locations. We document tree health and condition with photographs. Structural assessments identify hazards and defects. Reports include risk ratings for individual trees. Treatment or removal recommendations are provided with justifications. All documentation meets ISA standards and legal requirements. Reports can be submitted directly to insurance companies, attorneys, or parish officials.

How long does it take to get an arborist report?

Simple single-tree reports for permit applications typically require 3-5 business days from inspection to delivery. Comprehensive property assessments with multiple trees take 1-2 weeks depending on property size. Urgent reports for insurance claims can be expedited to 24-48 hours with rush fees. Complex reports requiring detailed analysis take longer. We provide realistic timelines when you schedule inspections.

Will insurance companies accept your arborist reports?

Yes, our reports meet insurance industry standards and are accepted by all major carriers. Our ISA-certified arborists have credentials recognized throughout Louisiana. Reports include all required documentation of pre-existing conditions, storm damage assessment, and repair cost estimates. We've worked extensively with insurance adjusters and understand their documentation requirements. Reports can be submitted directly to your insurance company.
