Who We Serve

Tree Care Management for Homeowner Associations (HOAs)

Hoppe’s Tree Service fully understands the needs of our HOA clients and the board of directors that oversee the maintenance and operations of these communities.

  • Our Arborists provide assessments and annual programs based on your specific needs and works with your board to ensure the best approach for your community.
  • HOA managers and board members have full access to their homeowner association’s tree inventory and service history records. We document all tree care services, applications, and planning at the individual tree level. These records not only facilitate proper ongoing tree care, but also assist in future budget planning.

At Hoppe’s Tree Service, we specialize in the beautification and maintenance of apartment complexes and multifamily communities. We understand the priorities of these management companies to maximize occupancy while providing a safe, welcoming environment.

  • Multifamily property managers need reliable, safe, committed Tree Service partners to take the headache and worry away from managing their properties’ appearance and liabilities. Whether you have small landscape trees or large trees, we can serve you.
  • We can help you  mitigate liabilities such as building clearance or reduce damage to improve your trees’ health.
  • We offer multiyear tree management plans and have expert management plans to keep your trees and community thriving.
  • Cost-effective & proactive tree care.

With our proactive approach, your trees receive individualized attention and detailed work history records for historical data purposes and budget planning agendas. We have worked with multifamily housing and apartments and understand the need for cost-effective treatment for better community living.

Keep residents safe & increase curb appeal.

Our team is exceptional at identifying and mitigating potential tree liabilities to keep your residents and visitors safe. We also can enhance your property’s curb appeal to future residents and increase the property value of your community.

Trees are your asset, but if not taken care of, they can quickly become your liability. “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.”

Commercial & Retail Tree Care Services

While each commercial and retail property has specific needs, we understand the constraints and limitations with which many commercial properties must deal. Hoppe’s Tree Service has experience with challenges such as your customers and tenants and offers flexible solutions to ensure minimal disruptions during tree service.

In addition to our extensive working knowledge in commercial tree services, we also specialize in landscape tree services, commercial tree planting and managing the trees that surround retail and commercial office buildings.

Hoppe’s Tree Service also partners with many construction development companies, home building companies and landscape companies. This means that we provide the expertise and solutions for lot clearance (tree removals) for new construction or remodeling of existing construction.

Well maintained trees increase property values.

Our professionally trained and certified team is equipped to handle large or small maintenance issues. We’ll ensure that the commercial and retail property you manage is safe and accessible. What’s more, it will look its best for your tenants and their customers while increasing the property’s value and curb appeal to prospective renters.

Trees are an asset and by proactively following a well-strategized, multi-year, tree care plan, you can increase the value of your property so that you get the most out of your trees. Your landscape trees and urban forest can differentiate your property from others if the proper care, passion, and strategy are in place.

Hoppe’s Tree Service offers free multi-year action plans to fit your budget and requirements.

We provide all types of commercial tree services such as proactive commercial pruning to ensure building and security camera clearance and minimize lighting impairments. Plant health care to foster vibrant and healthy trees, and tree removals when needed keep your retail and commercial property always looking its best, thus attracting tenants and customers. Proper tree care reduces liabilities and improves safety. In other words, Arborist tree assessments, recommendations, proactive tree care management, and other services help your trees thrive which enhances the overall appeal of your property.

Residential & Estate Tree Care and Services

Your home is not just where you live; It is also your sanctuary. We understand the importance of ensuring your home is safe, well-taken care, and aesthetically appealing. We also recognize that your landscape and trees may have large sentimental value to you, and so we take the health of your urban forest very seriously.

The professionals of Hoppe’s Tree Service have provided residential tree services to homes, residences, and businesses within Southwest Virginia with a combined experience of more than 35 years. With our clients at top of mind, we give individual service recommendations for every tree or plant in question. No two trees are alike.

In addition to residential tree trimming, we offer plant health care, tree removals, arborist reports, tree pruning, stump grinding, and defensible space in fire-prone areas.

We not only care about your urban forest and landscape, but also about your residence. With tight quarters sometimes an issue, we have extensive experience with removing, pruning and planting so that your home is not disturbed or damaged in the process.

Hoppe’s Tree Service is well known for removing trees in extremely challenging areas that are a liability to your home or your neighbors. We value both you and your home and strive for a seamless experience.

Happy trees come from happy tree workers.

Tree Maintenance and Specifications

When Hoppe’s Tree Service performs care and maintenance of your trees, you can be confident that you are in the hands of dedicated, caring, experienced, professionals.

Pruning cuts shall be in accordance with the American National Standards Institute for tree pruning, aka ANSI A300 pruning standards (latest edition). Certification is through International Society of Arboriculture, Champaign, IL. All work shall be performed by workers trained in accordance with ANSI Z133.1 safety guidelines as required by OSHA.

General Procedures and Techniques

Foliage removed shall be taken primarily from the outer edge of the canopy, not from the interior. No more than 20% of the foliage shall be removed from any tree unless otherwise specified. Dead branches greater than 1.5 inches in diameter (measured at the base of the branch) shall be removed from the canopy of all trees that are pruned. When removing a dead branch, the final cut shall be made outside the collar of the living wound wood tissue. If the collar has grown out along the dead branch stub, only the dead stub shall be removed; the living collar shall remain intact and uninjured regardless of its length. Live branches less than 1.5 inches in diameter should not be removed. No live branches or stems greater than 3 inches diameter should be removed from the tree unless otherwise specified.

When removing a live branch at its point of origin on the trunk or from a parent branch, the final pruning cut shall be made in branch tissue just outside the branch bark ridge and collar. No stubs shall be left. (A stub is the remaining branch tissue to the outside of the collar and branch bark ridge.) Live crown ratio should be at least 60% when pruning is completed meaning that no more than the lower 40% of the tree shall be clear of branches.

Removal and reduction cuts shall be used, and not heading cuts.

Never top a tree. Instead, prune to its natural shape.

Here are a few things we seek to understand and consider when beginning the tree care journey:

 

  • The goals of the community and budgetary constraints.
  • Initial assessment of immediate needs and recommendations for secondary needs.
  • Current make up of existing tree species and their age diversity and long-term removal/replacement planning.
  • Opportunities for community education and engagement.

The health, beauty, and safety of your HOA trees are incredibly important to us. For this reason, we strive to deliver the best possible solutions, providing a sustainable and healthy urban forest for years to come.
