Thread: Local listings of GOOD arborists...

Hey all, long time lurker, first time poster.... this will be lengthy, so bear with me.

I am a hort. guy and I run my own small (read: me ) landscape business.

I do primarily stone and brick work. I'm no Michael Dirr, but know a lot about plants and trees. I also know when to call in a pro....

That leads me to my question-- how would a guy go about finding a reputable arborist. I have a customer that wants some work done with two big oaks. Mainly limbing and dead wood stuff. I know what needs to be done, just don't have the equip. cojones, nor SKILL to do the job.

I want someone who is professional because I'm doing the referral for my customer. I'd prefer 'a guy' rather than a nationwide outfit.... But if the nationwide outfit is my best bet, I'm fine with that.

I'm in kansas city. Is there a web page for regional certified arborists? What do I look for? Etc.

Thanks for any and all help

I would start with the ISA website. It will list all the CA in your State.. Than you can ask them. www.isa-arbor.com

Thanks JCT,

That will get me what I need.
