Oklahoma City Tree Preservation Services

Arbor Masters' tree preservation services are designed to restore your trees to their full potential, helping them recover from any issues they may be facing. Our team of experts will diagnose the problem, create a customized plan, and execute it with precision every time. To clarify what tree preservation entails, check out some of the key services we offer:

Air Spading

Using an air spade, we can shoot compressed air into the soil to reduce compaction and give your roots room to grow and secure necessary nutrients.

Root Flare Excavation

A tree’s root flare (where the trunk meets the roots) should be uncovered to avoid decay. Our team can excavate the root flare carefully without damaging the tree.

Preconstruction Root System Protection

Heavy machinery used in construction can compact soil, and digging can sever roots. We’ll help you plan around construction and avoid damage to a tree’s roots.

Root Pruning

Girdling roots circle around your tree’s trunk and restrict nutrient flow. Our team can prune these girdling roots to give your tree a chance to survive.

Tree Preservation FAQs

Root pruning is best left to the professionals. Improper pruning can potentially kill a tree.

Soil becomes compacted when it has no more pore space available for water and air to enter. Trees in compacted soil will not be able to expand their roots effectively. 

Construction often involves heavy equipment and digging, both of which can harm a tree. Having an arborist mark off areas to avoid will protect your trees from construction damage. 

An air spade is a tool that shoots compressed air into the soil to reduce compaction while avoiding harming the roots.
