Why Air Spading Is Essential for Tree Health

A healthy root system is vital to a tree’s survival. Traditional digging with heavy equipment can damage tree roots and underground utilities and even compromise a tree’s stability. Our air spade services offer a noninvasive alternative.

Eastern Ontario Arborists employ air spading to:

Perform root collar excavation to expose buried root flares and prevent girdling roots.
Diagnose and treat compacted soil that might limit oxygen and water flow to the roots.
Prepare areas around trees for construction sites, parking lots, or landscaping work.
Expose and avoid damage to underground utilities like natural gas or water lines.
Encourage higher survival rates for new trees planted near existing ones.

If you notice warning signs like sickness, leaning trees, or poor growth, air spading may reveal problems below the surface and help you correct them early.
