Air spading is a non-invasive technique used to safely expose and relieve compacted soil around a tree’s root system without causing damage. Using compressed air, we loosen soil to improve oxygen flow, water absorption, and nutrient uptake. This process is especially effective for stressed trees, construction-impacted areas, and mature trees showing signs of decline. Air spading allows our certified arborists to assess root conditions accurately and apply corrective care that supports long-term tree health.
