About Project
a conscientious homeowner in Reston, VA, had concerns about the health and structural integrity of the trees on his property. With some trees exhibiting excessive height and perceived safety risks, he sought professional advice on potential solutions. Unfortunately, the previous property owner had resorted to topping, a controversial practice that raises concerns about its impact on tree health. Mr. Williams reached out to us for a comprehensive assessment and a more sustainable approach to address his tree care needs.
