West Coast Tree Surgery

When Jesse and I started West Coast Tree Surgery, we made a goal to plant as many trees as we removed. It was important to us to replace the dead and diseased trees we removed, with healthy, well-placed trees. I'm happy to say we exceeded that, planting 95 trees last year! Here is a picture of a Japanese Fireglow Maple we planted in November.

We love the dynamic cabeling system from Wes Spur. No drilling means less chance of decay and neon orange break away tags make it easy for the home owner to tell when we need to come back. #wesspur #treecare #arborist

Bradford Pear strikes again! The Bradford pear is know to split. At least Jesse got to put his Silky to work!

Saw this on my walk this morning! It broke a window and dented the roof. Remember, the best time to prune a tree is before it prunes itself!

I wish every customer asked us to carve chairs for their playground! #woodworking #chainsaw #art #arborist #treestagram #treesurgeon #daycare #stumps

Trade secrets: We use rock climbing shoes on prune outs so we don't mark up the tree! #climber #treestagram #arborist

Trees that are staked too long will never grow the strength to stand on their own. You should unstake your tree 3 months after planting. #treestagram #arborist #floweringtree

Know the signs of rot! Mushrooms mean your tree has a fungus. #treesofsacramento #mushroom #trees
