The Role Of The Arborist In The Community

1. The Role Of The Arborist In The Community In urban regions with lush vegetation, with lots of shrubs and trees, the role of the arborist is an important one. The arborist, or tree surgeon, concentrates their efforts on the urban landscape and should not be confused with a lumberjack, most often an unskilled laborer that would cut down trees in forests. Even though there may be categories into which arborists would fit, it is mentioned that the skilled arborist, one with experience and the skills needed to take on all types of tree work, is the one you would like to approach for the tree work and tree services you would like to be undertaken if you live in, for example, Lake Oswego near Portland, Oregon, or in Salem, or somewhere in Washington, Idaho or Montana for that matter. As is the case with all services, you want a professional that guarantees a job well done, on time, leaving your premises clean afterward. Skilled, experienced arborists, especially if they work for leading, reputable companies in the USA, and certainly in Oregon and surrounding states, often hold accreditation and, for example, ISA certification, which is a sought-after confirmation of the arborist’s dedication, experience and commitment to their profession. In a region such as, say, Lake Oswego, with its abundance of natural vegetation and trees, a region known for its wooded character and forests nearby, the job of the arborist is never done. In this region, the abundance of trees of all sizes and types requires arborist services on a regular basis. So what is expected of the arborist that is called out to complete a job? That would almost entirely depend on the trees, and their type, and where exactly these trees grow. Do they grow in someone’s back or front yard, are they near a swimming pool and they are starting to lift tiles and brickwork, or are they in the middle of a park somewhere, on a sidewalk, in a public space, or where they pose a danger of falling in stormy weather? Arborists – those with experience and the expertise required to do a proper job –are able to take on many different tasks, always depending on the requirements of the job and the demands of the owner, whether that is a private property owner or the local municipality, or even a Federal agency. The arborist is well versed in all aspects of arboriculture, which refers to all aspects related to the cultivation and controlled management of trees and shrubs and often also of a study of other woody plants. This professional has the knowledge and skill to advise owners and municipal managers about vegetation, the management and maintenance of trees and shrubs, and the skills and tools to make sure these trees and shrubs are controlled and look neat – and do not pose danger to the people (and pets) that live nearby. Nobody wants to walk past a tree whose branches may be falling off, or sit in their home when a tree is uprooted and blown onto their roof. Preventive tree care and a good tree service can help keep you and your property safe from harm. Also, they know how to help you, and offer advice, about how you can maintain – and improve – the aesthetics of your garden, the lane you drive through to your house, or the trees that line the municipality’s properties. They can prune if you need them to, they can remove a tree that poses
