About The Urban Arborist

The Urban Arborist is a full-service tree company in San Francisco, California, that specializes in urban tree care and management. It works with residential, commercial and municipal clients across the Bay Area, including San Francisco, the East Bay and the North Bay. What started as a one-man operation is now a team of six. The work covers tree pruning and maintenance, tree removal, stump grinding, emergency tree service, tree planting, cabling and bracing, estimates and diagnosis, and tree protection plans. It also delivers mulch to commercial and residential clients and does landscape consultation and installation. Its arborists have over 60 years of combined Bay Area experience. Owner Josef Sikelianos is an ISA Certified Arborist, the company is an ISA member, and it is licensed, bonded and insured under California license #944610. Site evaluations and estimates are free. The company's approach is summed up in one line: "we look at each case to determine the best course of action in order to preserve your trees and your safety." This suits a Bay Area homeowner, homeowners association or property manager who needs urban tree work done, rather than a woodland owner looking to sell standing timber.
