Commercial FAQ

Yes. Arborist Now works on occupied and active sites, planning the work around site activity, tenant access, and pedestrian movement rather than expecting the property to stop. Crews are CTSP-certified for exactly this kind of environment.

Yes. Arborist Now’s arborists routinely produce documentation for municipal review across Bay Area jurisdictions. Permits are the property owner’s responsibility to obtain, but we identify whether a tree falls into a regulated category and prepare the arborist documentation an application requires.

Yes. Arborist Now works alongside general contractors and project managers as a subcontractor, coordinating directly with the superintendent on staging, access, and sequencing. We are licensed, insured, and prevailing wage ready for publicly funded work.

Erosion control is part of our Environmental Installations and Natural Structures service. We reshape and stabilize soil, install erosion control fabric or logs, and replant disturbed areas with native vegetation. This prevents washout, supports habitat regeneration, and enhances long-term landscape stability.

Yes. Stump grinding is commonly added to a removal where the area will be replanted, resurfaced, or returned to use. On commercial properties a remaining stump is a trip hazard with an owner attached to it, so it is usually scoped with the removal rather than separately.
