Services
Tree Spraying
Our certified arborists apply targeted tree spraying solutions to eliminate insects and diseases. Using specialized trucks with multiple product tanks, we customize treatments for each tree's needs while ensuring environmental safety. This service prevents infestations and maintains tree vitality through season-long protection.
Deep Root Fertilization
This service delivers essential nutrients directly to tree roots through 4-6 inch soil injections. Our proprietary blend includes organic matter and root growth enhancers that combat nutrient deficiencies, improve soil structure, and stimulate healthy growth for stressed or declining trees.
Soil Remediation
Using Air Spade technology, we address soil compaction and root collar issues that threaten tree health. This non-invasive process examines root structures, corrects planting errors, and restores soil quality to reverse long-term tree decline caused by construction or foot traffic.
Mosquito Control
Our mosquito control program combines knockdown sprays with citronella oil applications to create pest-free outdoor spaces. Technicians treat all shrubs, lawn areas, and potential hiding spots every four weeks, using EPA-registered products safe for families and pets.
Lawn Aeration
Core aeration removes soil cores to improve water and nutrient absorption while reducing compaction. We amend the soil with lime and fertilizer during the process, promoting stronger root development and healthier turf growth for both spring and fall maintenance cycles.
