Services
Tree Planting
Proper tree planting establishes healthy growth patterns. We guide species selection based on climate and site conditions, ensuring correct planting depth and root collar positioning. Our experts address irrigation needs and root system development for desert environments.
Structural Pruning
Scientific pruning enhances tree structure and safety. Our certified arborists perform precise cuts to improve branch attachments while maintaining natural growth patterns. We balance artistic shaping with biological considerations for long-term tree health.
Tree Removal
Safe tree removal requires careful planning. We assess site constraints and use specialized equipment to remove hazardous or dying trees. Stump grinding services eliminate tripping hazards and prepare sites for replanting when needed.
Pest Diagnosis
Early pest and disease detection prevents tree decline. Our experts identify issues through comprehensive inspections and recommend targeted treatments. We emphasize preventive care to maintain tree vitality in desert conditions.
Root Excavation
Root collar excavation restores tree health by removing excess soil. Using air spades and hand tools, we expose buried root collars to improve oxygen flow. This critical procedure prevents root rot and structural instability in improperly planted trees.

Company never showed up for estimate at our house. Waited for one hour and even called owner. No response. Not reliable.

We have used D'French Arborist for 10 years. The owner is an arborist and our trees look fabulous! We are very pleased with their response time, the quality of their work, professionalism and courtesy. This is not a hack job. Your trees will look wonderful and you won't be disappointed!
