From increasing property value to reducing energy costs, tree planting can be a cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution for your home or business.

The Benefits it Brings

Property Value: Trees can make a big difference in the aesthetic appeal of your property’s exterior. Prospective buyers are more likely to opt for places that count on lush lawns and large trees than those with smaller gardens.

Energy Saving: Trees can provide shade and protect you from the sunlight on hot summer days, allowing you to reduce reliance on cooling systems and save on utility costs.

Protect the Environment: Planting trees helps you protect the environment by improving soil and water conservation, storing carbon, and regulating temperature, which helps you reduce your carbon footprint and the impact your property has on the planet.

Mulch & Wood Chip Delivery

The Importance of Mulch and Wood Chip

When it comes to tree and plant maintenance, quality mulch is fundamental. Mulch and wood chips can help you maintain optimal moisture levels, which contributes to soil health and, consequently, the longevity of your trees. Additionally, they can create a protective barrier around roots, which prevents weed growth and soil erosion. At Big Tree Services, we can provide you with the mulch and wood chip solutions you need for your commercial and residential property in the GTA and Cottage Country.

Benefits of Much and Wood Chip

Moisture Retention: Mulch and wood chips help the soil retain water, which ensures proper moisture levels and reduces the need for frequent irrigation.

Soil Enrichment: The gradual decomposition of much and wood chips can also improve soil fertility, which contributes to the overall health of your trees and plants.

Weed Control: The addition of mulch and wood chips prevents weeds from growing around your trees, which reduces competition for nutrients and enhances the health and longevity of your trees.

Winter Tree Services

Why Are Winter Tree Services Important?

At Big Tree Services, we provide high-quality winter tree services so that you can protect your plants from extreme temperatures and harsh weather conditions. In this time of the year, trees are dormant, which makes it easier to identify structural issues and address any damage promptly and effectively.

Big Tree Services is currently offering a 10% discount for any service in the winter.

Advantages of Winter Tree Services

Reduced Risk of Tree or Property Damage: Harsh weather conditions can put great stress on the structure of your trees. Strong winds combined with freezing temperatures and snow accumulation can damage your trees and cause accidents. Efficient tree care ensures your trees are properly pruned, and trimmed, enhancing health, and reducing hazards.

Minimized Stress: Dormant trees are often easier to maintain, as they recover faster from pruning and trimming. For optimal tree health, taking good care of your trees in the winter is fundamental.

Pest Prevention: Another benefit of winter tree services is preventing pests from affecting the structure and health of your trees. Pruning your tree during cold weather conditions may keep rodents and insects away, reducing damage to your trees and plants.

Tree & Deep Root Fertilization

The Importance of Deep Root Fertilization

Big Tree Services provides efficient fertilization services for your trees in the GTA and Cottage Country. Deep root fertilization, also called root feeding, consists of carefully injecting specific minerals into the soil around your trees. This is done to ensure that roots will be able to have the necessary nutrients for healthy growth and to ensure optimal longevity for your tree.

Benefits

Enhanced Growth: Fertilization provides essential nutrients that can greatly contribute to the strength, health, and longevity of your trees.

Disease Resistance: Trees that have access to enough minerals and nutrients are more resistant, making them less likely to suffer from disease, pests, and harsh weather conditions.

Improved Soil: Deep root fertilization contributes to soil quality, which ensures long-term benefits for your trees and plants.

Insect & Disease Control

Why Is It Important to Prevent Insect and Disease?

When it comes to tree care, pests and diseases are often your biggest threats. They can quickly cause severe damage to your trees, which typically leads to weakened structures. This can pose serious risks to you, your family, and your property, making it fundamental that you rely on experienced professionals to keep your trees healthy. Big Tree Services provides insect and disease control solutions so that you can protect your loved ones and avoid damage to your home or business.

Benefits of Insect and Disease Control

Tree Longevity: Insect and disease control are essential for the health of your trees. It can greatly contribute to their longevity and ensure they can maintain their natural beauty for years to come.

Cost Savings: It is also worth remembering that insect and disease control is a cost-effective investment that reduces the need for costly treatment or removal services.

Our excavation services can also help homeowners set up plastic walls, also known as root barriers, to prevent roots from reaching and damaging driveways. Big Tree Services provides efficient root-sensitive excavation solutions for residential and commercial properties in the GTA.

The Benefits It Brings

Root Preservation: Root-sensitive excavation prevents you from damaging roots, which could lead to a wide variety of health issues for your tree.

Cabling & Bracing Tree Protection

Understanding the Importance of Cabling and Bracing

Cabling and bracing are essential tree protection techniques that provide structural support to weak or damaged trees. These methods involve installing cables or braces to distribute weight more evenly, reduce stress on vulnerable branches, and prevent potential hazards. Our expert arborists at Tree Care Specialists offer professional cabling and bracing services to enhance the safety and longevity of your valuable trees.

The Benefits It Brings

Improved Structural Integrity: Cabling and bracing reinforce weak branch unions and help trees withstand strong winds and heavy snow loads, reducing the risk of failure.
