The property contained multiple mature trees affected by mistletoe, many of which were located on a hillside with limited equipment access. While some trees could be reached with a boom truck, others required experienced climbers to safely perform the pruning and mistletoe removal.
The project demanded careful planning, proper safety procedures, and efficient coordination between the climbing crew and the ground crew. Complete cleanup was also an important part of the homeowner’s expectations.
“Tip Top Arborists responded quickly to my request for an estimate and handled the entire project professionally from beginning to end. The crew arrived on time, followed excellent safety practices, and worked efficiently to remove mistletoe from trees that required both aerial lift access and professional climbing. Their cleanup was outstanding, even removing branches I had previously stacked myself. As a retired safety officer, I truly appreciated their professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to working safely.”
Mistletoe is a parasitic plant that draws water and nutrients from healthy trees. If left untreated, heavy infestations can weaken branches, reduce tree vigor, and increase the likelihood of structural failure.
Properties with steep slopes or limited access require experienced arborists trained in aerial lift operations and professional tree climbing. Proper safety equipment and industry-approved climbing techniques help ensure the work is completed efficiently while protecting both workers and the surrounding landscape.
The project began with an on-site inspection by the owner to evaluate the number of affected trees, the extent of the mistletoe infestation, and the accessibility of each work area. After providing a detailed estimate, the project was scheduled promptly.
On the day of service, the four-person crew reviewed the work plan before beginning. Trees accessible by boom truck were serviced using aerial equipment, while inaccessible trees were climbed using professional climbing systems and safety gear. Ground crew members efficiently processed branches through the wood chipper and removed all debris. The crew completed a meticulous cleanup, leaving the property cleaner than they found it.
