Wondering if a tree on your property is a genuine hazard? That's exactly what you'll find out when an arborist performs a risk assessment. We'll carefully analyze the tree and the surrounding site conditions to determine the likelihood of failure, the odds of it hitting people or property, and what the specific consequences would be if that impact occurred.
Curious why your tree’s leaves are changing color or the bark is starting to peel? We can swing by your property, take a close look at the tree, and pinpoint the specific disease that might be putting it at risk. If we need to be 100% sure, we can even collect tissue samples and send them off to a diagnostic lab. This confirms our professional findings and ensures we're taking the right steps.
Concerned that your soil has nutritional deficiencies or textural problems that are hurting your trees? These issues can easily stop them from reaching their full potential. We'd be happy to perform soil tests and analyze the local soil texture for you. By doing this, you can resolve any hidden problems and determine exactly what type of fertilization or amendments your trees actually need to thrive.
Do you intend to plant new trees on your residential or commercial property? Most people know that it’s critical to select the right tree for the space, but they don’t know how to identify the best choice. That’s where we come in — we’ll be happy to visit your property, assess the site, and identify several species that would work well in the space.
Are insects, bacteria, or fungi damaging your trees? These threats are quite common in Arcola, Illinois, due to the specific geographic and climatic factors of our region. However, we can help identify the most effective treatment strategies to target the pests or pathogens involved and give your trees their best possible chance at recovery.
Planning on installing a new driveway, utility line, or home addition?

Our local trees can suffer from a number of different diseases, ranging from relatively minor threats, such as sooty mold to deadly things like oak wilt. While some of these diseases will resolve on their own, others require immediate treatment.
Construction-related damage is one of the most common reasons that trees in the Arcola area begin to suffer from declining health. While this damage is permanent in many cases, there are occasionally professional treatments available that can help your trees recover.
Unfortunately, many trees planted in suburban areas fail to grow as quickly as they should. It's frustrating to watch, but whether that slow growth stems from health problems, nutrient deficiencies, or soil composition issues, we can help you fix the problem.
While many trees naturally drop their leaves each autumn, some can lose them all before summer even concludes. This is often a sign of extreme stress, which absolutely requires a professional evaluation by an ISA-certified arborist.
Trees can endanger people, pets, and property if they develop a significant lean or start to decay and lose their structural integrity. Fortunately, these kinds of issues can be mitigated in many cases, allowing homeowners to retain the trees they love.
Various fungi can infect trees, causing internal decay and a broad loss of health. It is essential to check your trees often for warning signs, like mushrooms appearing on the trunk or around the root zone.
Road salts keep our winter drives safe, but they're often a nightmare for our trees. The good news? Some trees are much more salt-tolerant than others, which makes them way better choices for planting right next to the road.

Have questions about Trimmed Up Trees’ arborist services? Curious about the kinds of services arborists provide? We’ve rounded up a few of the most common questions our customers have and answered them below.
Because Arcola is surrounded by open flatland, residential trees often catch the full force of Illinois windstorms. As arborists, we perform Structural Integrity Audits. Instead of just cutting branches, we identify "included bark" and weak crotches that act as failure points. We use technical pruning to reduce the "sail area" of the canopy, allowing wind to pass through the tree safely rather than pushing it over.
Yes. Many of the mature Maples and Oaks in Arcola’s established neighborhoods suffer from Soil Compaction or nutrient tie-up. We use Air-Spade Technology to gently uncover the root flare without damaging the delicate root tissues. This allows us to diagnose "Girdling Roots"—roots that are literally strangling the tree—and perform corrective surgery to restore the tree’s vascular health.
In our region, timing is everything. If your Oaks begin losing leaves from the top down in mid-summer, or if your Ash trees show "D-shaped" exit holes in the bark, immediate arborist intervention is required. At Trimmed Up Trees, we provide diagnostic mapping to determine if your tree can be saved through systemic injections or if removal is necessary to prevent a neighborhood-wide infestation.
Often, yes. If you have a multi-stemmed tree that you love, but it’s at risk of splitting during an ice storm, we can install high-strength Dynamic Cabling systems. This arborist-grade hardware supports the tree’s weight while still allowing for natural movement, preserving the tree's life and your property’s shade without the cost and loss of a full removal.
We highly recommend scheduling arborist services during the winter months in Arcola. When trees are dormant, the "wound response" is minimized, and the risk of spreading fungal pathogens (like Dutch Elm Disease) is nearly zero. Furthermore, without leaves, our arborists can see the exact skeletal structure of the tree, allowing for much more precise and beneficial cuts.
