How to Determine the Dollar Value of a Landscape Tree

Certified arborists use the International Society of Arboriculture’s trademarked formula, which factors species, size, condition, and location. While a homeowner can estimate, only an ISA-certified arborist’s appraisal carries weight for insurance or IRS claims.

Find a qualified arborist through the Georgia Arborist Association. Documentation should include species ID, measurements, health assessment, and site context.
