The finish can mean different things
Pruning, removal, stump work and hauling are separate decisions. A client expecting a cleared site may not understand that the quote leaves logs or chips, so spell out the agreed result.
Software for tree service owners
Make the tree-work agreement clear from the ground.
A tree-work quote needs more than a species name. Access for a chipper, nearby structures, brush handling and the agreed finish all affect what the crew is taking on. Microtra holds the client agreement and business schedule while your arboricultural assessment and site safety procedures guide the work.

The everyday details
You know the work.
The admin adds up.
Ground access shapes the working day
A narrow gate, soft lawn or restricted driveway can change equipment placement. Keep access observations with the job and check them again before arriving with a crew and trailer.
Tree assessment belongs to the professional
An estimate records the commercial scope; it is not a condition assessment or a safety plan. Keep technical judgments in your professional process and describe their effect on the proposed work carefully.
How Microtra helps
Keep the business connected.
Use the tools that fit your day, with your records ready on your phone or on the web.
Turn the walkaround into clear scope
Write estimate items for the trees and tasks you have agreed, including debris handling and any separate stump work. Identify the work by location so similar trees are not mistaken for each other.
Explore this featureKeep the owner conversation available
Save client contact details and notes about access, approvals and site boundaries. Other starts without linked records; enable them in Modules & terms if you want separate linked property records.
Explore this featureAssign the agreed crew visit
Use job details and tasks for the commercial work, with appointments assigned to staff. Note equipment access and planned cleanup alongside the schedule, while maintaining your own specialist work and safety documentation.
Explore this featureBring expenses into the review
Enter disposal, equipment hire, fuel and other business expenses with receipt photos. Review job costs alongside invoiced labor and time rather than judging a removal only by how quickly the tree came down.
Explore this featureReview the hours behind site work
A crew can spend substantial effort on loading, ground work and cleanup after the visible cutting is complete. Link time entries to staff and the job, then compare those entries with the estimate you prepared. That review supports your own pricing decisions for similar access and debris conditions without asking the app to calculate a tree-work method or productivity allowance.

From the first quote to paid.
Survey with the client
Identify the trees and discuss the desired outcome. Record access constraints and clarify what will remain on the site when your crew leaves.
Send a defined estimate
Separate pruning or removal from debris disposal and stump work. Explain anything excluded, then resolve questions before placing the work on the business schedule.
Prepare the crew
Review the job notes, staff assignment and access arrangements. Use your professional procedures to decide methods, equipment and safe working conditions before the task begins.
Review the completed scope
Walk through the agreed result with the client. Note authorized changes, share an invoice PDF through your device and record payment received elsewhere.

Questions from tree service owners.
Does this replace tree assessment software?
Microtra does not calculate tree risk, identify disease or prescribe pruning methods. It supports client records, quotes, scheduling and invoicing around the work an arborist independently assesses.
What does the Other setup call my work?
The starting terms are Job and Client. Linked records and stock start off, and can be enabled in Modules & terms if those modules fit your operation.
Can I plan a repeating pruning visit?
You arrange recurring work yourself. Contact the client, confirm the tree-work scope and place the agreed visit on the schedule after checking the site and crew requirements.
How can I avoid disputes over brush and logs?
Describe disposal, chip placement, log handling and stump treatment in the estimate. Record the finish the client approves and discuss any requested changes before adding work.
