Our company is dedicated to the preservation of trees in regard to their health and beauty as they add value to the landscape in general and to a home in particular. The following recommendations are based on my 30+ years of experience and continued training as a Certified Arborist. I look forward to partnering with you in the care and health of your trees. ESTIMATED COSTS OF WORK TO BE PERFORMED 1. The nearly dead ash tree in the parkway should be removed, cutting the stump low = $360.00 Note: We will need to have a Certificate of Appropriateness to remove this tree. 2. The tulip poplar at the front left corner of the house should be pruned off of the roof for a 4' clearance, and thinned above the roof to lightly reduce weight; repair the broken section in the crown = $720.00 3. The old apple tree south of the porch is poorly structured, with decay in the main trunk as well as the roots. We recommend removing the tree before it falls, cutting the stump low = $420.00 Note: We will need a Certificate of Appropriateness to remove this tree as well. When the apple is removed, is will allow for more light to reach the small maple sapling. This should help it grow up into a beautiful tree for your front yard. 4. The crabapple off the back right corner of the home should be pruned lightly off of the neighbor's home, removing deadwood (1" and larger) throughout. Lightly thin the end of the branching throughout the tree for a cleaner appearance and less weight on the old scaffold branches, all of which have some decay present = $360.00 4a. We recommend annual (every fall) in-ground fertilization = $95.00 per treatment 4b. We should also treat annually (every spring) on a three spray fungicide program = $105.00 per spray x3 = $315.00 annually Note: There may be some dripping from the fungicide spray onto the neighbor's property to the south. We will need to have their signed agreement to this treatment because of this. If they have any questions or concerns, they are more than welcome to give us a call! ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Neighbor's Signature Printed Name Date 5. The dogwoods in the backyard should be cleaned up, removing deadwood (1/2" and larger). We will leave it up to our tree crew to decide what they are able to safely prune next to the electric service to the north = $220.00 for all
