Common Questions
An ISA Certified Arborist has passed a comprehensive examination developed by some of the nation's leading experts in arboriculture. The credential requires ongoing continuing education to stay current with arboricultural standards. It's the benchmark for knowledgeable, professional tree care.
Oak wilt is a fungal disease that is one of the most serious tree diseases in central Texas. It can spread through connected root systems between neighboring trees and through bark beetles. Proper diagnosis, treatment, and prevention require a certified oak wilt management specialist — which is exactly what my #TOWC0108 credential covers.
Timing depends on the species. For oak trees in central Texas, the Texas A&M Forest Service recommends avoiding pruning during the February through June period when oak wilt transmission risk is highest. As an ISA Certified Arborist with an Oak Wilt Management credential, I can advise on the right window for your specific trees.
An ISA TRAQ (Tree Risk Assessment Qualification) assessment follows a standardized methodology to evaluate structural defects, species characteristics, site conditions, and likelihood of failure. It results in a risk rating and recommended corrective actions. I hold the ISA TRAQ credential and can provide formal assessments for homeowners, property managers, or legal and insurance purposes.
Austin has a Heritage Tree ordinance that protects trees of certain species and sizes. Permits may be required for removal or significant pruning of protected trees. As a local arborist familiar with Austin's regulations, I can help you understand what applies to your situation before any work begins.
