Four-Point Comprehensive Summer Assessment
Summer conditions in the North Bay create a specific and urgent set of risks for your trees. Our arborists evaluate all four threat areas in a single visit — giving you a complete picture before conditions worsen.
Drought & Heat Stress Assessment
Drought stress is the primary summer threat driver in the North Bay. Stressed trees show reduced resin production, weakened cellular defenses, and are significantly more vulnerable to bark beetle attack and secondary infections. We identify stress before it cascades.
- Leaf scorch, wilting, and premature drop indicators
- Canopy thinning and die-back patterns
- Bark cracking and sunscald evaluation
- Root zone moisture and soil compaction assessment
- Drought stress severity scoring and treatment recommendations
Summer Pest & Disease Evaluation
Bark beetles, ISHB, and opportunistic fungal pathogens are at peak activity during North Bay summers. The window for effective intervention is narrow — early detection is the difference between treatment and loss.
- Bark beetle galleries, pitch tubes, and frass identification
- Invasive Shot Hole Borer (ISHB) signs and staining
- Red Turpentine Beetle activity in conifers
- Aphid and scale pressure on stressed trees
- Summer fungal disease and canker assessment
Defensible Space & Wildfire Risk Review
Fire season is not hypothetical in Sonoma and Napa County. Our arborists assess your property's fuel load, vegetation spacing, and canopy clearance — and provide clear, CAL FIRE-aligned recommendations.
- Zone 1 and Zone 2 vegetation and clearance review
- Canopy clearance and ladder fuel assessment
- Dead wood and fuel load documentation
- CAL FIRE compliance guidance
- Priority removal and pruning recommendations
Tree Hazard & Structural Risk Assessment
Heat accelerates dead wood development and increases the likelihood of summer limb failure — a real risk for trees near structures. We identify structural hazards before they become emergency calls.
- Dead and dying branch identification
- Summer limb failure risk evaluation
- Trunk and root zone structural integrity
- Proximity risk to structures and utility lines
- Heat-related bark damage and structural compromise

Introducing the Summer Stress Defense Program
Defense Program = The Treatment
Our bundled plant healthcare program is tailored to your canopy’s needs to maximize impact.
Summer Stress Defense
A coordinated plant health care program built for North Bay summer conditions. Four treatments. One cohesive strategy.
Biohydration Treatment
Helps trees retain water at the cellular level during peak heat stress, supporting photosynthesis and natural pest defense mechanisms when trees are most vulnerable.
Deep Root Fertilization
Soil injection treatment that replenishes essential nutrients and improves soil moisture conditions in the root zone — building the foundation for summer resilience.
Growth Regulator (Cambistat)
Redirects the tree’s energy from canopy growth into root development — strengthening the root system, improving water and nutrient uptake, and increasing overall stress tolerance.
Soil Decompaction
Ensures the root zone is structurally capable of receiving and distributing water and nutrients — particularly important in high-traffic or compacted soil areas common to North Bay properties.
These four treatments aren’t independent line items — they work together. A tree with improved root mass absorbs more water. A tree that retains water produces more resin. A tree with healthy resin flow is significantly better at defending against bark beetle attack. The Summer Stress Defense Program is designed around that interconnected biology.
Why Timing Matters
Treatment efficacy drops as summer progresses. Trees already in advanced stress are harder to support than trees that receive proactive care early in the season. The assessment creates the window. Acting on it is what protects your trees.
Hydrated Trees Resist Beetles
Bark beetles are most dangerous to drought-stressed trees. Well-hydrated trees produce resin that physically expels boring insects. Biohydration and deep root fertilization directly support this defense mechanism.
Stronger Roots, Better Outcomes
The growth regulator is the long-game treatment. By redirecting energy into root development, trees enter the following year with deeper, more expansive root systems — making them more drought tolerant and structurally sound every season after.

- Fire Risk Reduction
Defensible Space That Meets CAL FIRE Standards
Sonoma and Napa County homeowners live with fire risk every summer. Our arborists assess fuel load, canopy clearance, ladder fuels, and vegetation spacing — and provide a compliant, prioritized action plan before red flag conditions arrive.
- Zone 1 and Zone 2 clearance work
- Ladder fuel reduction and dead wood removal
- CAL FIRE compliance guidance and documentation
- Ongoing maintenance programs available
- Plant Health Care
Early Detection Is the Most Effective Treatment
Bark beetles, ISHB, and summer fungal pathogens move fast in the North Bay heat. By the time symptoms are obvious, treatment options narrow significantly. Our arborists know the early signs — and the targeted interventions that work.
- Trunk and soil injection treatments
- Targeted insecticide programs for bark beetles and borers
- Fungicide and disease management programs
- Monitoring programs for high-value trees
- Plant Health Care
Root Strength Is Your Tree's Summer Defense
Drought stress starts underground. Compacted soil limits water uptake. Poor root development limits water storage. Our summer soil health programs — including biohydration, deep root fertilization, and growth regulation — address the root cause of summer decline.
- Biohydration treatment for water retention
- Deep root fertilization (Essential and Premium)
- Growth regulator for root system development
- Vertical mulching and soil decompaction
- Tree Services
Summer Pruning for Hazard Reduction
Summer pruning focuses on dead wood removal, hazard limb reduction, and canopy clearance for defensible space. Our arborists follow ISA and ANSI A300 standards — and time every cut to support tree health during the stress season.
- Dead and dying branch removal
- Hazard limb identification and reduction
- Canopy clearance for fire mitigation
- Vista and clearance pruning
- Tree Services
Safe, Efficient Removal When It's Necessary
Removal is always a last resort — but dead, dying, or structurally compromised trees near structures become a real liability in summer conditions. When removal is the right call, our crews handle it safely and efficiently.
- Crane-assisted removal for large or difficult trees
- Full cleanup and debris removal included
- Stump grinding available
- Safety planning for proximity to structures
- Why Image Tree Pros
Arborist-Led. Safety-First.
Built for Northern California.
Image Tree Pros brings together the teams behind Image Tree Service and Tree Pro — two of Sonoma County’s most established tree care companies — under one unified brand with 30+ years of combined experience.
Our team follows ISA and ANSI standards. You’re getting trained arboricultural professionals who understand tree biology — not just a crew with chainsaws.
Most tree companies do removals and pruning. We go deeper — biohydration, deep root fertilization, growth regulation, and targeted pest treatment programs designed around tree biology.
Sonoma and Napa County have distinct pest pressures, soil conditions, and fire risk profiles. We know this region because we’ve worked it for decades.
Tree work carries real risk. We carry full licensing and insurance so that you, your property, and our crew are protected on every job.
We plan every job with your property in mind. Specialized equipment, site assessment, and careful execution mean your landscaping and structures stay protected.

The Window to Protect Your Trees Is Now
Trees already in advanced drought stress are harder to support than trees that receive proactive care early in the season. The sooner we assess, the more options you have.
Peak beetle pressure in the North Bay runs through late summer. Stressed trees with no plan are vulnerable every day. An assessment gives you clarity on where your trees stand.
This isn't a future risk. Red flag conditions happen in Sonoma and Napa County every summer. A defensible space review now, while conditions are workable, is essential.
Our arborist visits, assesses, and gives you honest findings. What you do with the information is entirely up to you. There is no pressure and no commitment required.
