🌳 Why Tree Health & Safety Matter: The Roots of a Thriving Landscape

Healthy, beautiful trees are more than just landscape features—they're investments in your property's value, environmental health, and year-round curb appeal. But without expert guidance, even the strongest trees can fall victim to disease, pests, severe weather, or improper maintenance, leading to costly emergency tree services or safety hazards.

At Rigg Tree Services, we believe that every property owner deserves trusted, professional care for their trees 🌱. That’s why we recommend hiring a certified arborist for everything from tree safety consultations to plant health care and beyond.


🧑‍🔬 What Does It Mean to Be a Certified Arborist?

Not all tree service providers are created equal. A certified arborist is a tree care specialist accredited by organizations like the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA). Achieving certification requires:

  • Rigorous education in tree biology, diagnosis, and care
  • Continuous professional development
  • Commitment to ethical and safe practices

By hiring a certified arborist, you’re getting more than just a tree worker—you’re partnering with a trained professional dedicated to the science and art of tree care.


🔍 The Risks of Unqualified Tree Work

Cutting corners on tree care isn’t just risky—it can be downright dangerous. Unqualified work can lead to:

  • Improper pruning that weakens or permanently damages trees
  • Unsafe tree removal that endangers people and property
  • Incorrect diagnosis of diseases or infestations, costing you more in the long run

Worse, mistakes by untrained individuals can void property insurance or create lingering liabilities. When it comes to your peace of mind and landscape value, don’t gamble—choose certified expertise.
