Customized Disease Control for a Healthy, Resilient Landscape
It is important you TRUST the company you hire to maintain your healthy landscape. There are many types of fungus and bacteria that can be present in and among your greenery and some of it is very beneficial but can be easily mistaken for disease, and the same is true for unhealthy bacteria that often resembles healthy. You need a trained eye with years of experience in recognizing Northern Virginia’s unique flora along with the diseases and pests that often inhabit our trees.
Diseases of trees and shrubs may be caused by harmful bacteria, fungi and viruses. Most often these diseases attack trees that have already been stressed by other factors. It’s often difficult to recognize tree diseases, because the organisms responsible are small and not easily detected in the early disease stages. Once a problem is recognized, the disease is often in an advanced stage, limiting an arborist’s treatment options.
Traditional landscape pest control programs rely on what are called cover sprays. The cover spray type, method, and timing are pre-determined by the pest control company.
In contrast, Stokes Tree Solutions plant health care (PHC) technicians consider the landscape as a whole when deciding how to best care for plants. Our PHC technicians control plant problems through careful monitoring of the landscape environment. We’ll discuss all of your options for treatment and, unlike other companies, we do not suggest a blanket solution to what may be a complicated problem. Our technicians consider the landscape as a whole when deciding how to best care for plants. Chemical controls may be a part of the solution but they are not necessarily the preferred method of treatment. Because of this, every treatment program at Stokes is customized to fit your property and your expectations.

Loyalty Drives Our Success
At the heart of our business is our deep commitment to our repeat customers, who return to us time and time again for their ongoing needs.
Tom and his crew did a wonderful, professional job of taking down our large oak in our backyard. They worked safely, cleaned up well and even moved our trampoline and left us firewood. The customer service and price were great.
I write to unreservedly recommend Stokes Tree Service for its tree removal services. How refreshing it was to work with Tom, who returned my calls promptly, whose crew worked so efficiently, and whose price was so very reasonable. I contacted four other tree removal companies who all insisted on using a crane and charging 2 to 3 times more than Stokes. We give Stokes our highest recommendation!
Very competent crew lead by Tom Stokes. Work performed involved complex work on very tall trees. Extremely impressed with communication, knowledge and promptness. Crew were all very nice, clean cut, very comfortable having them work around our property. Tree work, clean up, haul away of trees exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend you give them the opportunity to bid on tree work.
