Limbwalker Tree Service gains Tree Care Industry Accreditation

Tree Care Industry Association Accreditation


Limbwalker Tree Service, Inc has just become the first (and only) tree care company in Kentucky to achieve Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA) Accreditation. The TCIA is a trade association of more than 2,000 commercial tree care services and affiliated companies. This “seal of approval” helps consumers identify tree care companies that have been inspected and accredited based on adherence to industry standards for quality and safety, maintenance of trained and professional staff, and a dedication to ethics and quality in business practices.

TCIA verified this by conducting an on-site audit of Limbwalker’s facilities and work sites. The review verifies compliance with:
• best business practices
• ethical business conduct
• formal training and certification of employees
• compliance with industry standards
• consumer satisfaction
• adherence to safety standards
• insurance coverage

TCIA’s on-site auditor, John Iurka, included in the official report, “Limbwalker is one of the best new small companies that I have audited. Their commitment to safe and professional operations is admirable. Their training regimen could be a goal for many companies.”

TCIA Accreditation for Limbwalker is in effect for a period of three years, with renewal check-ups required every year. The annual renewal ensures that the company continues to employ trained professionals, is still properly insured and has a good safety and consumer satisfaction rating. The company is reaccredited every three years.

The process of becoming accredited was no easy task. According to Cory Petry, co-owner of Limbwalker Tree Service, Inc., “The process is incredibly thorough. They left no stone unturned. We are pleased to have proven ourselves and to be recognized as one of the best tree care companies in the area.” TCIA interim president & CEO Mark Garvin echoes that sentiment by adding, “Limbwalker Tree Service, Inc. has made a commitment to excellence in all facets of its business. I applaud their efforts.”

    I really like what the guys did at my house last week. We will have to re-landscape now that we have more light on the west side of the house. It looks fabulous. My husband is very please with the pruning and dead wooding done to the Cherry and Maple in our back yard. I am sure our neighbor is relieved that the Maple has been cleared of all those dead branches high up that were looking for a place to fall in her yard. Toby, her little dog, is probably breathing a bit easier as well. The men are true professionals. They will be at our Indiana property shortly and back at our home in late fall to do a removal. Just fascinating to watch the team in play!!
