Our Arborist Services
Arborist Consultation
During the initial consultation, we’ll inspect your trees for any problems and can recommend ways to improve their health.
ISA Certified Tree Inspection
Our ISA Certified Arborists can inspect your trees for signs of structural issues or soil problems. If we detect hazardous branches or structural weaknesses, we may recommend preventive actions to protect people and property from potential harm.
Cabling & Bracing
A combination of cabling and bracing can help strengthen weak branches or sections of a tree. We follow all ANSI A300 standards when cabling and bracing your trees.
Tree Lightning Protection
To protect your trees from potentially fatal lightning strikes, we install lightning protection systems using ANSI A300 standards and hardware, minimizing the risk and helping to preserve your trees.
Root Collar Excavation
If a tree’s roots are girdling and restricting the flow of nutrients and water, we can perform a root collar excavation to prune the girdling roots and give your tree a chance to recover. Early intervention is crucial, as extensive girdling can be difficult to reverse.
Tree Inventory
A tree inventory provides a thorough overview of every tree on your property, along with guidance on identifying any that may be invasive or at risk from local insects or diseases in Lancaster County.
Construction Consultation
Planning a new development and want to avoid harming the trees? We can suggest a plan to disturb trees as little as possible during the building process.
Tree Preservation
Preserving a tree is often a better option than removal. We’ll take every possible step to save your tree, including breaking up compacted soil and exposing the root flare to promote its health and longevity.

FAQs About Arborist Services
An ISA Certified Arborist is a tree care expert with extensive knowledge of trees and best practices for their care. Arborist Enterprises employs multiple ISA Certified Arborists, and our founder, Ben Tresselt II, is an ISA Board Certified Master Arborist.
Girdling roots wrap around a tree's base, essentially "strangling" it by disrupting the flow of nutrients between the roots and the rest of the tree. Addressing this issue requires targeted root pruning, and early intervention is key to saving the tree.
Tree cabling is a method used to support trees with structural defects, such as co-dominant stems or weak branch unions, to reduce the risk of breakage during storms or high winds. While cabling can significantly lower the risk of tree failure, it’s not a foolproof solution, so caution is still advised during severe weather.
A tree inventory provides a detailed list of every tree on your property, including its species, condition, and age. This information helps you make informed decisions about tree care and identify which trees may need extra attention.
Yes, compacted soil occurs when foot or vehicle traffic compresses the pores in the soil. This can hinder the tree's ability to absorb water and nutrients, leading to poor health and growth.
