AIRSPADE | The Airspade is used to aid in root collar examination and root diagnosis by excavating soil around the root systems of problem trees without harming root structure. The Airspade also allows efficient and low–impact radial trenching, a treatment used to alleviate soil compaction around the base of a tree.
FERTILIZATION | Before prescribing tree or shrub fertilization we prefer to conduct soil testing. Many times, fertilizer is not the answer and knowledge of soil content is essential in successful tree diagnosis. Many trees suffer from unseen soil compaction and overprescription of fertiliztion can do more harm than good.
PLANTING | Confident in the work we do, we guarantee all our plant and tree installations for two years. From choosing the right tree or plant for your sprecific micro–climate and property to proper installation and measured maintenance, we take care to ensure your landscape will thrive for years.
PROPERTY & CONSTRUCTION CONSULTATION | Our certified arborists can provide long–term soltutions to the problems and questions you may have surrounding your property. Are you planning to build or add on? Avoid potential damage to your greenspace by having one of our arborists visit your location and produce a plan to ensure the safety of the trees you want to save.
PRUNING | Awareness of specific growth patterns is an integral step in the pruning process. We meet various objectives in each pruning which range in practice from large shade trees to smaller flowering shrubs. Pruning is a careful art that can only be mastered through years of experience and practiced knowledge.
SPRAY PROGRAMS—IPM | From the smallest troubled crabapple tree to the most extensive landscape, we have the experience to responsibly diagnose pest infestation on your property and implement the proper remedy. Keeping abreast with the latest technical data, we ensure our ability to respond to the problems in your landscape while using the latest and most environmentally sound spray applications.
STORM DAMAGE & HAZARD TREE REMOVAL | Employing advanced hand–rigging techniques, we can climb and dismantle trees in a safe, agile and efficient manner. In situations where hand–rigging is not an option, our experience in maneuvering large cranes is well trained.
TREE SUPPORT SYSTEMS | Prior to the installation of support systems, we conduct a careful hands–on diagnosis. Using a variety of sustainable support systems ranging from adjustable synthetic rope cables to fixed machined steel braces, we may reinforce the structural integrity of problem limbs and leaders suffering from decay, weak unions and stem splitting.
