The sequence
Four stages, one accountable party.
- 01
Assess
We walk the tract and record what is actually growing there — species, conditions, access and the timing the site allows.
- 02
Prescribe
You get treatment options with the tradeoffs explained, and firm pricing in writing before anything is committed.
- 03
Prepare
Products, equipment and crews are lined up for the window we agreed on, and herbicides are mixed on site.
- 04
Supervise
Someone accountable is on site while the work runs, confirming treatment areas and answering questions as conditions change.
