Identifying an Improperly Planted Tree


A Board Certified Master Arborist can identify under performing trees on Long Island. Included with every tree service is an evaluation of your existing trees. In this video, we see trees that have not increased in size over several years. It was found that their wire basket was never removed and the root ball is still intact. Using an Air Spade to uncover the roots can let the tree service staff fix the problem without further damaging the tree. Tick control and mosquito control are just two of our specialties.
