Tree and shrub problems can generally be atttributed to soil compaction and nutrient deficiencies. Untreated soil naturally compacts and restricts air and water. Air fracturing penentrates air deep into the soil to create fissures that benefit plants and soil.
Benefits include:
- Balance of water and appropriate root zone penetration
- Removal of static water
- Improved oxygen and nutrients
- Root growth deeper into the soil
- Relieving root stress
- Ability to inject water storing polymers
- Increasing the plant's overall health

Tree removal & Stump Grinding:
Typically tree will be cut as close to ground level as possible. In most cases trees will be climbed or a lift used to systematically remove trees in pieces to avoid damage to other trees, landscape and houses.
Cabling and bracing:
The installation of a cable system (usually a static system made from steel cables) to help co-dominant trees to avoid splitting. Bracing is typically used when a co-dominant tree has already begun to split. Cabling can be done by itself but bracing has to be done in conjunction with cabling.
Lightning Protection Systems (LPS):
A copper cable(s) are installed from the very tip of the tree, down the trunk, and continuing into the ground for several feet away from the tree. The cable is kept a couple of inches away from the tree via special nails. This will allow a lightning strike to follow the copper rather than the tree. This helps preserve high value trees from lightning damage
