Los Altos Tree Leaders Launches Tree Service In Los Altos California

Los Altos, CA based Los Altos Tree Leaders would like to announce that they now provide full range Tree Services for property owners, residents, and businesses in Los Altos and surrounding areas. Los Altos Tree Leaders offer a range of services from Tree Removal along with Stump Removal/Grinding, Tree Trimming, and Emergency Tree Services.

In Los Altos, a tree protection ordinance covers all trees, regardless of species, which are 48 inches or larger in circumference, and will require a Tree Removal Permit before they can be removed. “Los Altos residents need to understand whether their trees fall into any of the protected tree categories, whether based on size, designated as a Heritage Tree, required to be saved, part of a public right-of-way, or on property zoned other than as a single family residential area,” said Henry Thurs of Los Altos Tree Leaders.

In 2016, a developer was fined for tearing down two Heritage Trees ahead of schedule. However, if a tree is diseased or a threat to the public, power lines or any other utility service, they need to be rapidly inspected and dealt with by a professional. “Sometimes the ill health of a tree is not apparent to the casual observer. We always recommend an inspection by an experienced arborist,” said Thurs. The company is active throughout the areas seen on their tree services in Los Altos map, and can always be contacted for inquiries regarding their service coverage.

In 2003, the Los Altos City Council assigned the responsibility for street tree maintenance to adjacent property owners, and currently requires them to keep trees and shrubbery that fit this designation from conflicting with the normal use of the streets and walkways. Trees which overhang the street need to be trimmed to a minimum of 13 feet high to allow for truck traffic. Trees, bushes, or ground cover adjacent to residential property which impede stormwater flow in the street curbs also need to be trimmed, and they should not obstruct the visibility of street or traffic control signs.

Many Monterey pines planted throughout the Los Altos and Los Altos Hills have grown into beautiful, tall trees, with roots digging deep into the ground. However, a combination of drought, fungi, and beetle infestations means many are in bad shape. Arborists like the Los Altos Tree Leaders can undertake a hazardous tree assessment, which is essential to ensure the immediate natural surroundings are safe.

In November 2018, a California Department of Forest and Fire Protection (Cal Fire) spokesman stated that Palo Alto and the bay had a great risk for a large fire similar to the camp fire in Butte County, and advised home owners to not use motorized equipment to care for their greenery, including mowing lawns, pruning, and other landscaping activity. For any property owner looking to catch up on their annual maintenance and may be unsure how to deal with pruning back out of season, Los Altos Tree Leaders offers a free estimate for their services—find out more about the Los Altos Tree Leaders here.
