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 called this morning regarding an electrical issue, and luckily ABC was able to book me into the last slot. Stevie was great! He called in advance to inform me of his ETA and was on time. He was understanding of our "no shoes in the house" rule and had no problem wearing shoe covers to accommodate our request. He patiently answered all my questions, and walked us through his root cause analysis and fix. I would definitely use ABC again because of the amazing experience I had with Stevie!”

“Jeff was very professional and friendly. He did an outstanding job in explaining how the ECOWATER treatment works. He showed us every step of the tests and results, comparing with untreated 💧 coming to our home and the 💧 treated by ECOWATER treatment system that we would have that included drinking faucet in the kitchen. He showed us what the ECOWATER system most people used in Texas. We like the system and the price. Being Costco members come with extra benefits: cash back, big discounts on the sytem and services and warranty. We are happy with ABC ECOWATER water treatment system. We decided to go with the maintenance program that included monitoring the health of the system and filling free salt for us. We can take the system with us wherever we go and the contract will still be valid. What we like most: Jeff told us the best water treatment system has to have salt to dissolve the minerals coming into our home. It makes sense!”
