Hiring Tips for Arborists in Calgary
Hire ISA-certified arborists only
Always verify ISA (International Society of Arboriculture) certification. It ensures the arborist has formal training in tree biology and safe work practices.
Get a written quote before any work starts
Reputable arborists provide itemized quotes covering removal, cleanup, stump grinding, and disposal. Avoid anyone who quotes verbally only.
Check for liability insurance
Tree work near structures carries real risk. Confirm the company carries at least $2M in liability insurance before they set foot on your property.
