Tree Air Excavation in Austin, TX

Over time, the soil around our trees can become compacted, making it harder to access oxygen and nutrients. When looking for help with tree air excavation in Austin, homeowners turn to ABC Home & Commercial Services. Our certified arborists can create a specialized plan for your property that will result in healthy tree growth—both now and in the years to come.

We offer a number of tree air excavation services to keep your trees healthy, including:

Corrective on Girdling Roots

After our signature root collar excavation service, our trained experts will assess the root system that has been exposed. In some cases, some roots need to be pruned because they are girdling (cutting circulation) major anchorage roots.

Air Excavation to De-Compact Soil

Central Texas is notorious for producing some of the harshest soil conditions unfavorable for tree healthy. Trees need to be able to expand their root system throughout the soil. Therefore, our air excavation service will de-compact the soil within the critical root zone of your tree. This will allow for your trees root system to expand and grow, improving your tree’s health.

Nutrient Enhancement by Vertical Mulching with Organic Compost

This service uses the air spade tool to create two-inch diameter holes two inches down into the ground within the critical root zone. Once that is completed, our specialists will use our signature organic compost to back fill the holes they’ve created to help the roots expand throughout the critical root zone.

“I use ABC Home Services for a home that I manage. We have lawn service every other week. They didn't blow off the back deck which isn't unusual. They flew through the backyard and I am looking at grass/weeds over 1 ft tall that they missed. I think it's because the branches were low on the trees. They still could have used the weed eater on that section and chose not to. They are not always detail oriented.Some weeks are better than others. I use the irrigation department. I really like Brandon. I also have weed service. Today a new guy that I've never met came to treat the weeds because I wasn't satisfied with the results seeing that we have been having them treated for over 1 year. He explained to me that it is not an easy or a fast fix. He was very detailed and I have a much better understanding now. His name is John and I like him a lot ABC is very responsive. 'm very happy with ABC as a whole.”
