Almstead Renews Its TCIA Accreditation

Almstead recently underwent an extensive review of practices and was awarded a renewal of its accreditation by the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA). The process is the most stringent and reputable in the tree care industry. It evaluates businesses for professional standards and practices in every department and at each level of the company.

As part of the renewal process, an independent auditor examined our company for relevant licenses, proper insurance, customer service practices, operating standards, employee training, as well as adherence to safety regulation, industry standards and best business practices. The 3-day audit involved all our branch offices and included on-the-field inspections of our arborists, technicians and equipment.

We are very proud to receive our renewal of accreditation from the TCIA. It demonstrates that we have undergone a professional audit of our operations and are compliant with the best industry practices in tree care — all for the benefit of our clients.
