Call (510) 876-4114What does residential and commercial tree care include?
The work is the same tree care, planned around who owns the property. Services include:
- Homeowners: one-time trimming, removal, stump grinding, and clean-up.
- HOAs: common-area trees, entrance plantings, and trees along shared walkways.
- Commercial properties: parking lot trees, sign and storefront clearance, and building clearance.
- Scheduled maintenance visits on a set calendar.
- Hazard checks after storms for contract clients.
- Certificates of insurance naming your HOA or company as certificate holder.
How do HOA and commercial maintenance contracts work?
A maintenance contract sets a schedule instead of calling us each time something goes wrong. We walk the property, list the trees, and propose a rotation. Some trees get work every year. Others every few years.
Contracts can include pruning for sidewalk and vehicle clearance, removing dead wood, and priority response after storms. [Contract terms, visit frequency, and priority response times pending confirmation.]
Certificates of insurance: property managers and HOA boards usually need proof of liability and workers' compensation insurance before work starts. Ask us for a certificate naming your organization. [Confirm insurance types and turnaround time for certificates.]
What happens from the first call to final cleanup?
- Contact us about your property. Homeowners can call or use the form. HOAs and managers can send a site map or tree list.
- Walk the site. We assess trees, access, parking, and times when work disrupts the fewest people.
- Receive a proposal. A one-time estimate for homes, or a written maintenance plan for HOAs and businesses.
- Send paperwork and schedule. We provide insurance certificates and coordinate notices to residents or tenants.
- Work and report. Our tree care crew completes the work, cleans up, and summarizes what was done for your records.
Who handles tree permits for HOA and commercial properties?
Commercial and HOA trees are often part of an approved landscape plan. Removing them can need city approval and a replacement tree, even when they are on private land.
[Landscape-plan tree removal rules pending confirmation for Fremont and Hayward.] We help prepare permit information and photos for the board or owner.
We provide tree permit assistance. Read our tree permit guide for Fremont, Hayward and nearby cities and bring any existing city notices to your estimate.
