SCHEDULE OUR TREE APPRAISAL SERVICES
Trees have value just like any other part of your property. Yellowstone Valley Tree Surgeons offer expert tree appraisal services in the event of intentional or unintentional damage to your trees. Sometimes auto accidents or fire can damage and kill trees, and you can be compensated for your loss.
Our qualified assessor in Billings and Red Lodge, MT will determine your tree’s worth using the Guide for Plant Appraisal, 10th edition, published by the Council of Tree and Landscape Appraisers. The cost approach and trunk formula technique are the most common appraisal methods used. Consideration is given to many factors such as:
- Species - Is this a fast growing - short lifespan Poplar, or is it a long-lasting Oak tree?
- Condition - Was the tree already sick or dying? Was it neglected?
- Size - What is the current trunk size? How large is the canopy? Future Lifespan?
- Location- What is the quality of the overall landscape? Is this a rare or particularly unique or historical tree?
