Our Services
Property Inspection
We offer free estimates to customers with specific needs. If you would like our certified arborist to assess the trees and shrubs on your property, we offer a consultation service for $80.00. If you accept our proposal for treatment, your consultation fee will be subtracted from your proposed program cost.
Insect Disease Management
Advance Tree & Shrub uses integrated pest management (IPM) treatment programs that provide identification and treatment of pest infestations. Our arborist will make periodic evaluations of your plants for pest and other issues that can affect plant health. Treatments are applied as necessary to reduce pest populations and maintain plant health.
Soil Care Management
Not all soil is the same. It can be different, even in the same neighborhood! Our arborist will first determine the condition of your trees and shrubs. Then soil samples will be taken. If soil modifications are necessary, our technician will mix the prescribed materials and apply the treatment on site.
Have Girdling Roots?
A defined root flair is essential to having a healthy tree. Girdling roots can wrap around the trunk of the tree causing the roots to girdle the stem and stop water flow and nutrient absorption. This can occur from improper planting or from having too much mulch around the base of the tree. Contact us to schedule your FREE estimate.
Growth Regulator
Tired of pruning? We have the ability to control the growth of trees and even keep them the same size! A growth regulator works by slowing the vegetative growth of plants and inhibiting growth, gently and predictably. A single application provides a long-lasting reduction of vegetative growth, effectively extending the trimming cycle of trees and reducing the amount of woody growth that must be removed.
ROOT REVIVE PROGRAM
Root invigoration is a process that conditions the soil around the base of the tree, stimulates root growth and may allow declining trees and shrubs to revive and recover. Young trees and transplants benefit from this program as well. This process uses a supersonic air tool developed by the military. This tool allows the technician to till up the soil around the base of the plant using high pressure air without damaging the roots. Following this preparation, organic matter, fertilizer and/or ph adjusters are applied.
