Tree services offered in Baltimore

Cabling and bracing

Cables and brace rods are supplemental structural supports intended to reduce the risk of failure of weak branches and multiple stems on the trees around your home.

Deer management

The main goal for any good deer management program is to reduce feeding damage to valuable plants. Bartlett repellent programs use different products depending on the time of year, amount of deer pressure, and consumer preferences.

Fertilization and soil care

Bartlett offers the most intensive soil management programs in the landscape industry. Before any fertilization is prescribed or performed on your property, soil samples are taken from the property and soil nutrient status is analyzed.

Pruning

Pruning, or tree trimming, is a practice that is periodically required on all woody landscape plants on your property. Bartlett arborists can help you with mature pruning, young pruning, or specialty pruning.

Tree inspections

During an inspection, an arborist can check the overall health of the trees, look for signs of pest and disease infestations, identify any structural problems, and determine soil requirements.

Tree removal

Tree removals are performed on your property to eliminate dead and dying trees and those that have become hazardous and cannot be mitigated by other accepted cultural practices.
