Do you come to homes to check the health of large mature maple trees
Kent County Michigan
Expert Response I have a very large maple tree that appears to have the bark peeling off . The area that this is happening at is around the height of my house roof. My house is two story. Do you have staff that would come to my home to check the health of the tree. Thank you.
Good afternoon and thank you for reaching out. Unfortunately, no, we do not make "house calls" but 9 times out of 10, we can diagnose or make recommendations through photos. Would you be able to attach a few photos to this message? If we determine photos won't do the trick, we can provide a list of recommended arborists for you to peruse.
