Is Your "Healthy" Oak a Hidden Hazard?
* HLA Tree Service - Dial 318-TREEMAN (318-873-3626) *

Most property owners in Central Louisiana think that if a tree is green, it’s safe. That is a dangerous misconception.

In CenLA, our trees endure saturated soils, high humidity, and intense wind speeds. Just because your Oak or Pecan has a full canopy of leaves doesn't mean the trunk isn't hollow or the root system hasn't already begun to fail. Decay often starts from the inside out, invisible to the untrained eye until the next major storm rolls through Alexandria, Pineville, Marksville, Ville Platte and surrounding areas

Why You Need a ISA Certified Arborist and ISA TRAQ-Certified Inspection
A Tree Risk Assessment Qualification (TRAQ) means we don't just look at the tree; we analyze its structural integrity using science-based methods.

We look for:

Basal Decay: Fungi or soft spots at the ground level.

Internal Cavities: Pockets of rot that weaken the "pipe" of the trunk.

Root Heaving: Subtle soil movement that predicts an uprooting event.

Expert Credentials Matter: I am an ISA Certified Arborist ( -367105A) and am Tree Risk Assessment Qualified. When I inspect your property, you aren't getting a guess—you’re getting a professional safety audit.

🍎 Special Offer for CenLA Educators
As part of our community commitment, all teachers and school staff receive a 15% discount on all services (expires June 30, 2026). Whether you need a hazardous tree removed or a pre-storm safety pruning, HLA Tree Services is here to protect your home. "We protect the homes of those who protect our future."

Not All Tree Damage is Visible from the Ground
* * * 318-TREEMAN (318-873-3626) * * *

Lately, our team has been responding to many trees with hidden structural issues across Central Louisiana. If your tree is showing signs of structural damage, broken or cracked limbs, hanging limbs, included bark (V-shaped unions), fungal growth at the base, or a sudden lean, it may be losing its structural integrity.

Structural defects are the leading cause of trees falling on homes and sheds during storms. As a Louisiana Licensed Ground Applicator and ISA Certified Arborist, we evaluate the total health of your tree to determine if it can be saved or if total removal is the safest option.

Our Professional Promise:
* Precision Felling: Protecting power lines and structures.
* Advanced Tech: High-capacity grapple loaders for efficient cleanup.
* Clean Results: We live by our motto: No Mess - No Stress!.

Trust the highest-rated arborist in the parish to secure your property.

This recent project involved multiple storm-damaged trees threatening a residential house and shed. For high-stakes jobs like this, structural safety is the priority.

We are fully licensed, certified and carry complete liability and workers' comp insurance to protect both your property and our crew. Don't take a gamble on uninsured contractors when the weather gets rough.

Best of all? When the tree hits the ground, our work is only half done. We loaded, hauled, and raked the entire site. The HLA cleanup standard: No Mess - No Stress!

When the storm hits home, don’t settle for "just a guy with a chainsaw."

We recently wrapped up a high-stakes recovery in Plaucheville after the latest round of severe weather. As you can see in the photos, this wasn’t just a "trim job"—we had a tree on the house, another on the shed, and several hazards threatening the rest of the property. Why the "HLA Tree Service Standard" matters for your property:
* Fully Licensed & Fully Insured: Tree work is high-risk. We carry comprehensive liability and workers' comp insurance to protect both your home and our crew. Never let an uninsured contractor on your roof—the risk to your homeowners' policy isn't worth the "deal."
* Certified Expertise: As a Louisiana Licensed Arborist and ISA TRAQ Qualified professional (Tree Risk Assessment), we don't just cut—we evaluate. We used precision rigging to dismantle these trees safely, ensuring no further structural damage occurred.
* No Mess - No Stress: Most companies leave you with a "cleanup project" after the tree is down. Not us. We cut, loaded, and hauled away every single branch.
* Swipe to see the final result: a clear roof and a spotless yard. If you have structural damage or hazardous trees leaning over your home, call the local experts who are vetted, verified, and certified.

* Serving Cottonport, Evergreen, Plaucheville and all of Central Louisiana.

Look UP after a storm, not just down. Structural tree hazards are often hiding right above your head.

Following the recent severe weather, HLA Tree Service was contracted by the municipal government to handle critical post-storm tree risk assessments at the Village of Plaucheville public park walking track, right next to the baseball field and Plaucheville Elementary School.

While anyone with a saw can clear debris off the grass, a TRAQ (Tree Risk Assessment Qualification) professional looks for the hidden dangers. We identified major limb structural failures—massive canopy branches that were severely cracked, split, and hanging directly over the community walking path.

To safely mitigate the risk to the public and protect the park's infrastructure, we deployed our Bucket Truck and utilized advanced technical rigging systems to piece down and control the heavy timber with zero impact on the town's property. True to our word, our crew followed up with a rakes and blowers...

Whether it’s a public municipal park, a local business, or your family's backyard, storm damage requires more than a quick cleanup—it requires a certified safety evaluation.

No Mess, No Stress! Trust the team that Central Louisiana municipalities rely on.

We often talk about "hangers" (limbs that are fully detached and just stuck in the tree). But what you’re looking at in these photos is a Structurally Compromised Split.

This limb is still connected, which means it’s under active, unpredictable tension. It's a loaded spring waiting to snap at this Plaucheville home. A split like this can "barber-chair" (split vertically) when you cut it, or drop without warning.

This is exactly why ISA Tree Risk Assessment (TRAQ) credentials matter. We don’t just start cutting. Safety, Safety, Safety! ! ! My team, led by a Louisiana Licensed Arborist ( #2837) and ISA Certified Arborist® (SO-367105A), assesses the tension and uses precision rigging to relieve the pressure safely. We carefully remove the hazard.

If you have a limb that looks split, fractured, or ready to fail, don't wait for the next gust of wind in Plaucheville, LA 71362. * * Dial: 318-TREEMAN (318-873-3626) * *
