Root Crown Excavation & Aerial Assessment

Root Crown Excavation Sacramento

Root crown excavations are just one of the many tree care services offered at Fallen Leaf Tree.  A root excavation is done using an Air Spade.  An Air Spade allows for the inspection of what’s happening beneath the soil with minimal impact to the roots. 

This will show if any of the following issues are occurring:

• Root rot
• Decay
• Over-Compacted Soils
• Girdling Roots
• Construction Damage

 It also allows for the ability to redirect roots that are causing issues with the sidewalks, driveways or underground structures. Beyond the inspection, it also allows for the placement of root barriers – an awesome alternative to removal.

To find out if your tree needs root excavation, give us a call today to schedule your initial consultation. One of our trained arborists will help you create a management plan to effectively care for your trees.

Aerial Tree Assessment by Fallen Leaf

Performing the most in-depth assessment of a tree or area of trees leads to the best management plans and care. In order to do this, Fallen Leaf Tree uses aerial tree assessment. This process gives us the best views of all parts of the tree so that we can make the best care recommendations.

An Aerial Inspection is conducted by one of our experienced tree climbers who will visually inspect areas of the tree’s canopy that are not visible from the ground, if the tree is very tall, and or has a dense crown. Aerial inspections help create a fuller picture of the tree’s structural stability.  If the aerial inspection shows something questionable, we’ll  use a resistograph to read the density of the wood in question.

Our trained arborists are qualified to perform aerial tree inspections using the latest tools and techniques. Aerial inspections are performed either by climbing the tree or with the use of drones, depending on the location and size of the tree. If you want the most comprehensive tree management in San Francisco, call Fallen Leaf Tree today. We provide both residential and commercial tree services all over the area.
