Specialties
I am a licensed contractor and certified arborist specializing in the fine pruning of trees. Accentuating a tree’s natural beauty through removal of dead and dying branches, elimination of crossing and redundant branches as well as end-weght reduction of branches that are in danger of breaking is what I do. As I climb through out the canopy of a tree I am always assessing the structural integrity of every branch attachment in relation to the weight that the branch is supporting. I will also remove trees when absolutely necessary. I install bracing and or cable systems in trees. I have also rescued cats, strung lights, installed rope swings and removed rat nests form trees. I relish any opportunity to climb a tree, and I do it nimbly and safely.
History
Established in 2011.
I finally started my own tree business after 15 years in the industry.
Meet the Business Owner
Jacob C.
Business Owner
My name is Jacob Claassen. I am the owner and lead climber of Nimble Tree Care. I have been climbing trees all my life and pruning trees professionally for the last 15 years. I have acquired many skills and much knowledge about proper tree care from working for prestigious tree companies all over the state. From small exotic trees on private estates, to field pruning on ranches, to huge Cypresses on renowned golf courses, I enjoy all kinds and sizes of tree jobs.
My wife, Becca and I moved from the SF bay area to Santa Barbara in early 2011 to be near family for the birth of our first child, Hazel. I am pleased to be the owner of my own tree company so that I can see jobs through from start to finish. I am not only the owner of Nimble Tree Care, but also the main climber which means I am able to guarantee the highest level of quality of care for your trees.
