Nova Arborist is a team of ISA Certified Arborists and apprentices who have studied and understand the biology of trees. In fact, our study of the many trees under our care is ongoing. We offer complete tree care services such as tree preservation, health and maintenance pruning, unique deep root fertilization techniques, tree planting and tree removal.
We are a veteran owned business with an A+ rating on Angie's List, as well as neighborhood list serves across the DC region. They were very prompt and professional, taking time to explain exactly what would be done. From scheduling to execution, everything went well. The trees were in a residential area, and the crew took extra care in re-directing pedestrian traffic in a professional way.

Tree Preservation Plans are often required when building a new home, and their requirements vary among different municipalities. Our number one goal in this process is to save you time and money in permitting and construction. Because each construction site is unique, each requires a unique approach to tree preservation and permitting considerations.
Because drastic cuts or changes in shapes of trees cannot be reversed, our approach is to work conservatively and thoughtfully toward the pruning goal until it is reached. Pruning trees should be a decision-making process from start to finish. Knowing what to prune, when to prune, where to prune, how to prune, and how much to prune are all important for the future health and maintenance needs of the tree.
Most companies offer a 1-year guarantee on the trees they plant. We guarantee the health & beauty of our trees for life, barring any physical damage, because we start with the best specimens and plant them correctly. Planting a tree that will grow and stay healthy isn't nearly as simple as putting it in the ground and watering.
The most common reasons for tree removal are that either the tree is dead or that it has structural and/or health issues that make it hazardous or unsightly to leave in place. We would rather save your tree than remove it if it can be made healthy and safe. This is usually the cheaper way to go! If it must be removed, it should be done in a manner that preserves the surrounding structures, trees and their root zones.

Pat is super knowledgeable and his team are professional and efficient. We have used them to cable trees, remove trees including grinding the stump, cutting a tree that was very close to our house (the deck was built around it), as well as planting a new Japanese maple. We were very happy with the work and cleanup afterwards.

We have hired Nova Arborist several times to prune, treat and remove trees for us. Pat, the owner, is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about his craft. His crews are very professional and do an excellent job. One of the things I appreciate is their clean up. After they leave you would never know they were even there. We had a row of mature Blue Spruce that appeared to be dieing. After consulting with Pat he felt they could be saved. He suggested pruning and treating the trees. I'm happy to report they have recovered and are looking beautiful. I highly recommend Nova Arborist.
