Arborist Diagnosis – Tree Health, Disease, and Risk Evaluation

Truly Arbor Care provides arborist diagnosis services focused on identifying the biological, structural, and environmental causes of tree decline. Our approach centers on diagnosis first, allowing accurate plant healthcare treatment and informed risk mitigation decisions rather than default tree service solutions.

What Arborist Diagnosis Means

Arborist diagnosis is the process of determining why a tree is declining, diseased, or structurally compromised. This includes evaluating root systems, soil conditions, canopy health, internal decay, and environmental stress to identify the true cause of tree health problems.

ISA Certified Arborist Diagnostic Approach

All evaluations are performed by an ISA Certified Arborist trained in tree biology, structure, and plant health. This certification ensures diagnosis is based on
arboricultural science rather than visual assumptions or service-driven outcomes.

Sick Tree and Disease Diagnosis

We diagnose sick trees by identifying fungal pathogens, vascular diseases, decay, pest-related decline, and stress-
related disorders. Accurate diagnosis allows targeted plant healthcare treatments designed to slow decline and preserve tree vitality.

Plant Healthcare Based on Diagnosis

Plant healthcare programs are developed only after diagnosis is complete. Treatments may include soil management, nutrient support, disease suppression, and
low-volume macro-infusion when appropriate to improve tree health and defense response.

Tree Risk Assessment and Structural Evaluation (TRAQ)

Tree risk assessments are conducted by an ISA Certified Arborist with Tree Risk Assessment Qualification (TRAQ). TRAQ is the ISA standard for evaluating tree
failure potential, likelihood of impact, and overall risk to people and property.

Tree Risk Mitigation, Not Guesswork

Using TRAQ methodology, we assess decay, weak attachments, load distribution, and structural defects. Our recommendations focus on reducing risk while preserving trees whenever possible through science-based mitigation strategies.

Texas Oak Wilt Diagnosis and Treatment

We are Texas Oak Wilt Qualified and experienced in diagnosing oak wilt in live oaks and red oaks. Services include disease evaluation, treatment planning, preventative strategies, and protection of surrounding trees.

Second-Opinion Arborist Consultations

Many trees are removed due to misdiagnosis. We provide independent arborist diagnosis and second-opinion consultations so property owners can make informed decisions before removal or major intervention.
