Safety and quality are at the core of everything we do. All work is performed in accordance with OSHA safety regulations and ANSI industry standards to ensure every project is completed professionally and responsibly.
RTEC Treecare is currently performing hazard tree pruning and removal services for the National Park Service at East Potomac Park Golf Course. The trees assigned for treatment have been evaluated and selected by National Park Service arborists based on established hazard assessment criteria.
We want to be clear: RTEC Treecare has not removed any cherry trees at East Potomac Park Golf Course. Our work has been limited to trees identified by the National Park Service as hazardous, non-native, or invasive.
As professional tree care specialists, we are committed to protecting and preserving valuable tree resources while helping ensure public safety.
Every project we undertake is guided by industry best practices and respect for the landscapes and communities we serve.
We remain dedicated to delivering safe, responsible, and high-quality tree care for our clients and the communities they serve.
