Chris and his crew were 100% on it.. We have solar panels we told him how we needed more sun for them. We picked out what we thought was going to work. Chris and crew watched the sun and the trees and helped us adjust what we wanted removed! Chris and crew were so polite and respectful. The heat was brutal but it didn't change the way they professionally represented the business! Thank you Chris.Posted on Google![]()

I can’t thank Black Bear Tree enough for coming to the rescue and getting my sweet Queenie safely out of the tree! From the moment I called, they responded immediately and came over without hesitation. I truly appreciated how prompt, professional, and compassionate they were during such a stressful situation. Queenie is so much more than just a pet—she’s family. Having her safely back on the ground was the biggest relief, and I couldn’t be more grateful. Thank you for your kindness, quick response, and for going above and beyond to help bring my fur baby home. I would highly recommend Black Bear Tree to anyone in need!

Arborist Gorham Maine Frequently Asked Questions
Get clear answers about tree health, hazardous trees, storm damage, tree removal decisions, and professional arborist services in Gorham Maine.
How do I know if a tree is dangerous?
A tree may be hazardous if it has large dead branches, visible decay, trunk cracks, root damage, sudden leaning, or signs of disease. Some hazards aren’t obvious to the untrained eye. A professional arborist can evaluate the tree’s condition and determine whether it poses a risk to your home, family, vehicles, or nearby structures.
Should I remove a tree or try to save it?
Not every problem tree needs to be removed. In many cases, strategic pruning, cabling, disease treatment, or ongoing monitoring can preserve a healthy tree. An arborist assessment helps determine whether removal, trimming, or treatment is the best long-term solution.
What are signs that a tree is unhealthy?
Common warning signs include dead branches, thinning leaves, early leaf drop, fungal growth, hollow sections, insect damage, bark loss, and discoloration. If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s best to have the tree evaluated before the problem worsens.
Can an arborist inspect storm-damaged trees?
Yes. Storm damage can weaken trees internally even when they appear stable from the outside. Our arborist evaluations help identify hidden structural damage, hanging limbs, root issues, and potential hazards before they become emergencies.
Is a leaning tree always dangerous?
Not always. Some trees naturally grow with a lean. However, a sudden lean, exposed roots, cracked soil around the base, or movement after storms can indicate instability. An arborist can determine whether the tree is safe or requires corrective action.
How much does an arborist consultation cost in Gorham Maine?
Costs vary depending on the property and the scope of the evaluation. Black Bear Tree Co. offers free estimates and professional recommendations so you can understand your options before making a decision.
Can you inspect trees near homes, garages, and power lines?
Absolutely. Trees growing near structures or utility lines should be evaluated regularly. We assess potential risks and recommend the safest approach to protect your property while preserving healthy trees whenever possible.
When should I schedule an arborist inspection?
You should schedule an arborist evaluation if you notice signs of disease, dead branches, storm damage, leaning trees, root issues, or if you’re unsure whether a tree should be trimmed or removed. Early intervention can often prevent costly property damage and emergency removals later.
