Beware of individuals who go door-to-door and offer bargains for performing tree work, especially if they are not based in the metro area. Most reputable companies are too busy to solicit work in this manner. Improper tree care can take many years to correct and may negatively affect the health of the tree. The City of Minnetonka requires anyone soliciting doorto-door to acquire a permit at Community Development – Licensing. A good arborist will offer a wide range of services (pruning, removal, fertilizing, cabling/bracing, pest control, etc.). Ask for local references – other jobs the company or individual has done. Take a look at some and, if possible, talk to former clients. Experience, education and a good reputation are signs of a reputable arborist. Beware of a company that is eager to remove a healthy, living tree. Removal should be the last resort. Get more than one written itemized estimate. Require that it include full details of the work and itemize costs of any additional work that may be necessary. It is worth your time and effort to obtain two or more opinions and written cost estimates. Estimates are usually free, but always ask before setting the appointment. Never let yourself be pressured or rushed into accepting work by apparent bargains. Never pay in advance.
