Root Collar Excavation

Root Collar Excavation is the process of carefully removing soil and mulch from around the base of a tree to expose the root collar, which is the area where the trunk transitions to the roots. This is crucial for identifying and correcting issues like girdling roots, decay, or improper planting depth, which can compromise a tree’s health and stability. A Certified Arborist should perform this procedure because it requires specialized knowledge and tools to avoid damaging the tree. Arborists are trained to assess tree health, identify hidden problems, and perform the excavation safely and effectively for long-term tree vitality.

Deep Root Feeding

Deep Root Feeding is a process we employ to help correct nutrient deficiencies in the soil and promote healthier trees. This service is designed to encourage better root growth and denser canopies and improve the foliage color while making your trees and shrubs more resistant to pests and diseases.

Growth Regulations

A Growth Regulator is an effective product we inject into the soil to allow trees and shrubs to grow at a controlled rate. This provides many health benefits for your trees, plants, and shrubs and allows them to become more stress-resistant. From your perspective, it reduces the amount of pruning and general maintenance required to keep your landscape looking beautiful.

Deer Protection

During winter, food becomes scarce for deer, leading them to feed heavily on ornamental trees and shrubs, often causing serious damage to landscapes. Rick’s Certified Arborists addresses this issue with a professional-grade repellent called DeerPro® Winter. This once-per-season spray forms a long-lasting, weather-resistant coating on plants that deters deer browsing without harming vegetation.

Sickly Leaves

When your tree’s leaves start showing signs of distress, such as wilting or turning yellow, it’s a clear signal that something is wrong. These signs often indicate underlying issues like pests, disease, or malnutrition, which can be effectively diagnosed and treated by a Tree Care Arborist. As such, scheduling Tree Wellness Services with Rick’s Certified Arborists can address these symptoms promptly.

Thinning or Declining Canopies

Thinning or declining canopies signal that a tree may be suffering from structural weakness or disease, which highlights the need for immediate attention from tree service professionals. Such circumstances require the expertise of a tree care expert who can perform a thorough evaluation and determine the best course of action to protect your property and house.

Flaking Bark

Flaking and peeling bark on a tree is a serious sign that should not be ignored. It often points to health issues such as disease, pest infestation, or environmental stress. Whatever the case may be, scheduling an appointment with our professional tree care service is vital to address these concerns before they escalate.

Rick’s Certified Arborists offers professional treatments and maintenance advice to prevent further damage. Our team, knowledgeable in various aspects of tree health, including the specific care for different types of trees and bushes, can restore your tree’s structure and beauty.

Girdling Roots

If you notice smaller leaf size, a thinning or uneven canopy, excess mulch and soil, or a lack of visible root flare, those may be signs of potential root failure or structural imbalance, which can pose a significant risk to your house and property. In such cases, it’s important to contact us as soon as you can.
