Arborist Consultations

It is not always easy to tell what is causing a tree to decline or if it needs treatment, pruning or removal. If you have concerns about a true, an ISA-certified arborist from our local business can evaluate tree structure, foliage, bark, roots and surrounding growing conditions to identify potential concerns. We provide straightforward recommendations designed around the condition of the tree rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. With more than a decade of experience, our local arborists have seen and treated many issues. We’re ready to help your trees maintain their health and vibrancy.

Tree Pest Management

Northern Colorado trees can be stressed or damaged by insects that attack foliage, bark and vascular tissue. Common concerns include Ips bark beetles on pine and spruce, emerald ash borer on true ash trees, along with aphids, scale insects and other sap-feeding pests. The team at Hoffman’s Happy Tree Care looks for symptoms such as thinning canopies, boring dust, exit holes, unusual leaf damage and branch dieback, then recommends treatment, monitoring or other tree health measures based on the species and severity of the problem.

Tree Disease Management

Discoloration, thinning foliage, dieback, cankers and abnormal growth can all signal that a tree is under stress or affected by disease. Our ISA-certified team evaluates common problems such as Cytospora canker, which can affect spruce, aspen, cottonwood, maple and fruit trees, as well as fungal issues such as Verticillium wilt, Fusarium and Phytophthora-related root problems. Our evaluation process can help determine cause and develop a solution to restore tree health.

Fertilization & Deep Root Watering

Colorado’s dry conditions and challenging soils can make supplemental care important for some trees. Fertilization can provide nutrients when deficiencies are present, while deep root watering delivers moisture farther into the root zone than light surface watering. These services can be especially useful for stressed, newly planted or established trees during periods of limited moisture. An arborist evaluation can identify if these services will improve the health of a tree.

Tree Planting & Replacement

Choosing the right tree for the right location is one of the best ways to avoid future problems. We provide tree planting in Fort Collins, as well as tree replacement services. Our local tree care company can help select species suited to Northern Colorado conditions, the available space and the goals of the property owner. Thoughtful selection and proper planting give young trees a stronger start and can reduce maintenance challenges as they mature.
