RootBoost Keeps Your Trees Looking Their Best

When you need regular tree maintenance, turn to RootBoost for year-round fertilization. This deep-root fertilizer provides nutrients directly to the roots of your trees and shrubs, keeping them growing strong during every season.

Our specialized treatment is excellent for:

• Root development
• Stronger disease resistance
• A surplus of nutrients readily available to speed up new growth

How Does RootBoost Work?

Our RootBoost program is done seasonally, usually in the fall, to keep your trees healthy and strong during the winter. When you schedule your RootBoost service, our team will come to your home and inject liquid fertilizer about six inches below the surface. Since most tree root systems start between four and eight inches down, this is an optimal spot for fertilizer.

Each arborist knows the specific application rate for our process, which is done systematically. They come armed with the knowledge of each tree species they encounter, so they know when to adjust their application process to best care for your trees.

Why Do We Deep-Root Fertilize?

After countless years of working with trees, we’ve seen plenty of tree care methods come and go. What hasn’t changed is our passion for beautiful trees. We’ve learned that fertilizing at the root keeps trees stronger and healthier.

Our team practices Integrated Pest Management (IPM) to ensure that all our decisions are science-backed and leave the least negative environmental impact on your property. That’s why our RootBoost system targets the root system directly, encouraging proper growth patterns, producing strong, healthy trees with brighter and thicker leaves.

Additional benefits include soil aeration, more aesthetically pleasing trees, and protection from pests and disease. Because this is a preventative measure, you emulate optimal growth conditions for your trees, and they get to show off their best angles.

A Full Range of Arboricultural Services

While Green Drop’s RootBoost system will make your trees & shrubs beautiful, we offer various other services, from pruning to health consultations. Our offices currently offer our RootBoost program, but some other services are not available everywhere.

You can use our Plant Health Consultation and Diagnosis services in Calgary, Red Deer, Edmonton, Saskatoon, and other surrounding areas. In Winnipeg and Regina, we offer the full array of arborist services detailed below. We aim to provide all programs in our service area as soon as possible!

Our team of arborists is one of the most robust in Canada. You’ll find 14+ International Society of Arboriculture-certified Arborists, an ISA Municipal Specialist, an ISA Master Arborist, and several other licensed arborists and pesticide applicators to meet your wide range of tree care needs. We’d love to hear from you if you’re wondering which services are available at which location.

Tree & Shrub Pruning and Trimming

Ensure that your trees can live up to their potential with regular pruning. Our experienced arborists are invested in the longevity and healthy growth of your trees and shrubs. We make it easy by offering formative pruning for young trees and structural pruning to keep hazards at bay and keep mature trees healthy.

Why Should You Prune Trees?

Regular pruning encourages trees to grow in the best shape for the tree, prioritizing new growth and making it easier for trees to take in nutrients. Doing this means longer life for your trees.

Additionally, trimming means removing dead branches or diseased areas of trees. This process could save a tree and terminate the potential for damage to your family or home if something were to fall.

Tree trimming effectively keeps your yard looking its best while maintaining tree health and safety.

What Does Our Pruning Service Include?

Green Drop takes pruning needs very seriously. Our arborists have extensive training and experience with trees in the area, so they will examine your yard to find the areas that need care. Any tree pruning from our team is done following ANSI A-300 Pruning Standards to ensure quality and consistency across your yard.

Tree & Stump Removal

Removing stumps and trees from your yard on your own is challenging. If you need a hand, we’re here to help. Our certified arborists undergo special training to undertake these removals, using heavy-duty equipment to tackle potentially hazardous removals.

Why Do Tree Removals Happen?

Tree removals don’t only happen when you have an old stump or a dead tree, though these are very common. Instead, you might find that one of your trees has grown too large for your yard. Sometimes severe storm damage is a reason to remove a tree.

You might even need to remove a diseased tree to keep it from infecting the rest of your yard. Whatever the need, our removal team knows how to keep your yard looking its best.

How Does Green Drop Do Tree Removals?

As we’ve mentioned, our arborists are certified with the ISA. They undergo extensive training to use our specialized equipment before performing tree and shrub removals.

After our team examines your property and assesses the trees that need removal, we will bring in our equipment to carefully remove trees from your property. We can provide safe and efficient services with aerial trucks, climbers, and large-capacity wood chippers.

Tree Planting

You likely want to make your outdoor oasis inviting, which you can accomplish by adding exciting diversity and native trees to your space. Our tree planting services are a great way to make your yard more beautiful. We’ll help you decide on the size and type of tree, so you’ll never have to worry about choosing the perfect ones alone.

Why Are Professional Tree Planting Services Good?

When you work with a tree service company, you get access to expert knowledge and better equipment for your tree services, so you don’t have to figure out all the logistics for planting in your yard.

You don’t have to worry about improperly planted trees. We’ll examine your yard to find the best spot to plant the first time. Additionally, professional planters understand how to choose the best site for your new trees because they test the soil, examine your yard, and know the techniques that won’t damage your property or the new plants.

We dedicate ourselves to outstanding care for each tree we work with. So you can expect a delicate, expert touch that keeps your yard looking fantastic.

What Do Tree Planting Services Include?

We offer a variety of planting options for trees. We start with smaller containers at 10 gallons, moving up through 15, 20, and 25-gallon containers or wire baskets as needed. All planting prices include the tree, mulch, initial watering, and staking (if required).

The team also provides a 1-year 50% replacement warranty for installation defects to ensure that any trees we plant for you are healthy and grow well. To further encourage healthy plants, our certified and insured team members will follow ANSI A-300 Planting Standards so your tree gets the best possible start.

If you’d like to learn more or get suggestions from the team, we’d love to hear from you. Our team is always ready with great options for your area.

Plant Health Consultations

We protect your plants from pests and dangerous diseases with thorough yard exams and in-depth knowledge. Our annual programs keep pests away and any worrying conditions at bay because our specialists are tree experts and know how to treat insects and illnesses' specific effects on Canadian trees.

Insect Control

Many species of insects can damage your trees. Killing leaves, stems, and branches and ruining the beauty you’ve cultivated in your space. Controlling these pests is essential to maintaining a healthy, sustainable outdoor space. Green Drop will help you develop a management program that works for your yard and prevents infestations.

We’ll help you plant suitable varieties in the best areas to discourage insects from invading your trees and causing long-term damage. If we ever find a problem, we’ll treat it immediately to keep the nuisance from killing trees or causing other damage.

Disease Control

Microorganisms or environmental stressors often cause diseases that affect plants and trees. Usually, the microorganisms are bacteria or fungi, while stressors can include drought, pollution, or unseasonable temperatures. Working with a professional arborist means you can diagnose the issue more quickly and then begin a program to treat any problems.

Our arborists are certified and keep up-to-date with the latest trends and health concerns for tree populations in the area. So we’re always on the lookout for any issues that could arise. With our science-backed management practices, we’ll keep your trees looking tip-top.

Municipal Tree Care
