Our Service

About our tree and shrub services

Healthy trees and shrubs do more than beautify your property — they add value, shade, privacy, and curb appeal. Our tree and shrub treatment services keep your landscape strong, vibrant, and protected all year long. We treat the most common issues affecting ornamental trees and shrubs, including insects, disease, nutrient deficiencies, and environmental stress. Using targeted applications, we promote healthy growth while protecting your plants from damage caused by pests and fungus. The program covers deep root feeding, insect control, disease control, deer proofing, and weed control in shrub beds — because ornamentals compete with the same weeds your turf does, and they lose more often.

    If you would rather keep it natural, we run slow-release organic programs that feed the soil biology instead of just the grass.

FAQs

Frequently asked

What is deep root feeding?

Fertilizer is injected under pressure directly into the root zone rather than spread on the surface. Established trees and shrubs compete with turf for surface nutrients, so getting the feed below the grass roots is what actually reaches them.

Does deer proofing actually work?

Repellent applications reduce browsing considerably, particularly on the arborvitae, yews, and hostas deer target first. It needs reapplication through the season, especially after heavy rain and going into winter when other food is scarce.
