What was checked
On July 13, 2026, the publisher manually reviewed each linked official provider website for an identifiable business name, tree-related work and an explicit Knoxville or Knoxville-area service statement. Phone numbers, service labels, emergency wording and neutral summaries were recorded only from those official sources. On August 4, 2026, the published source URLs were checked again for availability; one failed source resulted in removal.

Limits of the log
“Available” means the cited URL responded during the availability check. It does not establish that a business is open, currently taking work, licensed, insured, credentialed, suitable, safe or affordable. The manual review reflects what the source displayed on the stated date, not a background check or customer evaluation.
How to challenge or update a record
Send the provider name, requested change and a direct authoritative source through the corrections process. Inclusion remains free. A provider cannot buy placement, a favorable description or a quicker verification date.
