Diagnose & Treat Root Problems

The trees in your landscape are telling you something. Before we prescribe anything — soil amendment, fertilization, or targeted treatment — we observe, assess, and diagnose. Because treating symptoms without understanding the cause is how trees continue to decline.

Real Results

When Plant Health Care Works

Our objective is to collect information first, then make recommendations grounded in what we learn. We always start with environmental and soil changes—restoration before treatment.

Scenario

Newer home (less than 10 years old) with trees showing bare spots in the canopy or sad-looking foliage

Our Solution

Development contractors aren't arborists. Trees are often planted too deep, left balled-and-burlapped or caged, and installed in unprepared soil. We assess planting depth, remove girdling material, amend soil, and restore proper root zone conditions.

Scenario

Mature tree exhibiting canopy dieback or discolored, unhealthy foliage

Our Solution

Low-quality soil and insufficient nutrient/water uptake to manage the tree's resource demands. Soil testing reveals deficiencies. We improve soil structure, drainage, and nutrient availability—addressing the root cause, not masking symptoms.

Scenario

Tree stress after nearby construction, equipment travel, digging, or excessive foot traffic

Our Solution

Root zone damage and soil compaction. We relieve pressure and restore soil structure so the tree can recover naturally.

Scenario

Trunk distortions, irregularities, or suspected girdling roots

Our Solution

Air spading reveals root structure without damage. We assess girdle severity and implement corrective soil work to encourage healthy growth patterns.
