Tree Preservation Services
-

Pruning
Pruning (often called “trimming” by the layperson) improves structure, safety, and tree health through ANSI A300–standard practices that preserve each tree’s natural form.
-

Insect & Disease Management
Our insect and disease management services identify and treat tree health issues using science-based methods to protect, preserve, and extend the life of your trees.
-
Fertilization
Our fertilization services improve soil conditions and supply essential nutrients that support healthy growth and help diagnose and correct nutrient deficiencies in trees and woody plants.
-

Cabling
Cabling provides added structural support to trees with weak or codominant stems, helping reduce the risk of failure during severe weather using static or dynamic support systems.
-

Tree Bracing
Our tree bracing services stabilize weak or split unions, often combined with pruning and cabling to improve overall tree structure and safety.
-

Root Zone Management
Our Root Zone Management services are all about providing the best soil structure possible for your trees to thrive!

Lightning Protection
Our tree lightning protection systems are designed to provide a point for lightning’s current to travel safely to the ground. The installation of our lightning protection systems will reduce the likelihood of damage to the tree and nearby structures.

Pre-purchase Landscape inspection
If you are preparing to purchase a property or home, consider including a Russell Tree Experts Landscape Inspection as a contingency in your offer. While a home inspection is standard practice, conditions beyond the walls of the house—particularly trees and landscape features—are often overlooked. Our experts conduct a comprehensive evaluation of all trees and shrubs on the property, assessing their health and identifying potential risks to existing or future structures. Adding a landscape inspection to your pre-purchase due diligence helps ensure a more complete and informed decision.
