A mature tree rarely dies overnight. Severe decline is usually the result of long-term environmental stress that goes unnoticed. As your dedicated tree care service experts, we conduct thorough, scientific hazard and health assessments. If your canopy is thinning, we immediately look below the surface. Soil compaction from heavy foot traffic, lawnmowers, or nearby construction violently suffocates the delicate root system. We utilize specialized pneumatic air-spades to safely blast away and excavate the hard dirt around the roots, alleviating the compaction and incorporating rich organic compost to instantly rejuvenate the tree’s root zone without damaging the microscopic feeder roots.
Planting a tree improperly dooms it to a slow, agonizing death. The absolute most common mistake made by amateur landscaping companies is planting the root ball far too deep, which buries the "root flare" (the widened, flared base of the trunk) under piles of wet soil and heavy mulch. This suffocates the bark and encourages "girdling roots" that eventually wrap around and strangle the tree to death. Our arborists ensure the planting hole is excavated to the perfect mathematical depth and width. We amend the backfill soil with beneficial mycorrhizal fungi to aggressively stimulate rapid root growth, giving your new sapling the perfect biological foundation to thrive for decades.
The local ecosystem in Lathrup Village, MI contains highly aggressive wood-boring insects and airborne fungal pathogens that can completely decimate a mature, beautiful tree in a single season. We don't guess; we identify the specific biological vectors attacking your trees—from emerald ash borers and spider mites to Dutch elm disease and powdery mildew. We implement highly targeted, systemic treatments (often via safe, direct trunk injections) that deliver the exact necessary fungicides or insecticides directly into the tree's vascular sap stream, neutralizing the threat while keeping your lawn, your kids, and your pets completely safe.
Protect your existing, valuable canopy and establish stunning new growth with the guidance of certified botanical experts. Healthy, majestic trees add immense financial value to your property.

"Our beautiful maple was looking very sick and turning yellow in July. Their arborist diagnosed a severe soil compaction issue, performed an air-spade treatment to let the roots breathe, and the tree bounced back incredibly well by the next spring."
"We hired them for a massive tree planting service to create a natural privacy screen along our property line. They helped us choose the perfect evergreens, planted them meticulously so the root flares were visible, and set up a watering schedule. They look fantastic."
"Highly knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. They identified a boring beetle infestation in our pines and treated them with direct trunk injections. It completely saved the trees from dying. Excellent arborist tree service."
The city of Lathrup Village is an outgrowth of the development known as Lathrup Townsite, the dream of its developer Louise Lathrup Kelley. In 1923 she purchased a tract of 1,000 acres (4 km2) in Southfield Township, in southern Oakland County, and proceeded to plant a residential neighborhood that encompasses the city of 1.5 square miles (3.9 km2). Lathrup Townsite was conceived as a controlled community with rigorous standards, including houses built only of masonry construction; early integration of attached garages; as well as established minimums for construction cost to ensure quality. The community also had housing covenants to prevent the sale of homes to African American families, part of a larger trend in the mid-20th century of racist white Detroiters fleeing to the suburbs to avoid living near black residents (see white flight). As the community developed, Mrs. Kelley implemented numerous innovative directives, including operating a shuttle service to local shopping areas, and allowing the financing of automobiles as part of the financing of houses, which created a stronger connection between the relatively isolated townsite and more established suburbs, as well as the city of Detroit. Mr. Charles Kelley, who had been a real estate writer for the Detroit News, assisted his wife in bringing talented architects to the community to design many of the custom homes that are features of the community. The City of Lathrup Village was incorporated in 1953 as the first incorporated community in Southfield Township. The residents thwarted an attempt by township residents to include Lathrup Townsite in their planned incorporation of the city of Southfield, resulting in Southfield's incorporation being delayed until 1958. Louise Lathrup Kelley played an active role in the new city until her death in 1963, after which her remaining real estate holdings in the city were sold and developed.
