Trees are valuable assets. When your property has been damaged by trespass, vehicles, storms, or other incidents, professional appraisal provides documented valuation for insurance claims and dispute resolution. I work with each client to determine the appropriate level of documentation and reporting style based on their specific needs.
Not all tree "values" are created equal. A professional appraisal using industry-standard methodologies provides documented, defensible valuations that hold up in court and insurance proceedings.
As a Registered Consulting Arborist with no financial interest in tree removal or replacement, our appraisals provide the independent, unbiased documentation required for legal and insurance purposes.
Every appraisal situation is different. I work with clients to understand their specific needs and determine the appropriate level of documentation and reporting style. Whether you need a detailed written report for insurance purposes, documentation for a property dispute, or consultation on tree value, the approach is tailored to your situation.
Reports typically include site documentation with photographs, species identification and condition assessment, valuation methodology explanation, and professional recommendations based on industry standards.
Tree service companies that both appraise trees and perform removal work face inherent conflicts of interest. As a Registered Consulting Arborist, we maintain strict ethical standards and have no financial stake in the outcome—our only obligation is to provide accurate, defensible valuations based on industry standards.
