S & S Tree Specialists - Offering a full range of tree and turf care services.

Insects can be a major problem for trees and the results of their infestation can be unsightly. Left unattended, this problem could threaten the life of the tree. However, with the proper treatments, almost all serious insect problems can be effectively managed. All of our applications are performed by certified, licensed professionals so you can be assured the job is being done safely and correctly.

Don't waste your money applying the wrong treatment at the wrong time. Disease is the number one cause of premature death in trees. Help increase your tree's chance of a long, healthy life by taking steps to reduce the risk of it contracting a disease or stop the disease from spreading to the rest of your trees. All of our applications are performed by certified, licensed professionals ensuring the job is done safely and correctly.

S&S offers consulting and diagnostic services. All of our insect and disease diagnoses and recommendations are conducted by International Society of Arboriculture Certified Arborists. We will take the time to review your trees with you if you are interested in learning more about what is afflicting them; or if you would prefer us to just leave a diagnosis, we can do that too. In addition to addressing your requests, we can also advise on cultural and preventive practices that will promote better health, vitality and growth for your trees. Consultation fee may apply. Call for more information.

One of the easiest, most cost effective things you can do to protect your tree and keep it healthy is to have it fertilized. In forested settings, decaying leaves and other organic matter are vital to recycling needed nutrients back into the soil. When leaves and debris are removed from the landscape, the natural nutrient cycle is not being completed and nutrients are being robbed from the soil and therefore limited in the tree. Fertilization helps to restore these nutrients to the soil, thus promoting a more vigorously growing, healthier tree.

You buy property for different reasons among them are location and value. Property values are often substantially enhanced by the presence of trees. Why not preserve that value by letting us prepare your construction site? From land clearing to soil erosion control, inventorying valuable trees, root pruning to preparatory treatments, our certified arborists can work with you to identify the value on your land, and help you preserve that value through the construction process.

Root pruning is an established practice used to restrict the spread of oak wilt and Dutch elm disease by severing common root grafts. It is also a helpful practice to reduce construction damage to a tree's root system. Pruning the roots before construction or landscaping activity commences, enables the tree to heal more readily. This reduces stress on the tree and increases its chances of survival before, during and after the construction process.
