​What is and Arborist?
How can an Arborist help me?
Whats the difference between a tree Service and an Aborist Service?
An arborist, or (less commonly) arboriculturist, is a professional in the practice of arboriculture, which is the cultivation, management, and study of individual trees, shrubs, vines, and other perennial woody plants in dendrology and horticulture.

​Arborists generally focus on the health and safety of individual plants and trees, rather than managing forests (the domains of forestry and silviculture) or harvesting wood. An arborist's scope of work is therefore distinct from that of either a forester or a logger, though the professions share much in common.
Picture
​An arborist's work may involve very large and complex trees, or ecological communities and their abiotic components in the context of the landscape ecosystem. These may require monitoring and treatment to ensure they are healthy, safe, and suitable to property owners or community standards. This work may include some or all of the following: planting; transplanting; pruning; structural support; preventing, or diagnosing and treating phytopathology or parasitism; preventing or interrupting grazing; installing lightning protection; and removing vegetation deemed as hazardous, an invasive species, a disease vector, or a weed.
Picture
​Arborists may also plan, consult, write reports and give legal testimony. While some aspects of this work are done on the ground or in an office, much of it is done by arborists who perform tree services and who climb the trees with ropes, harnesses and other equipment. Lifts and cranes may be used too. The work of all arborists is not the same. Some may just provide a consulting service; others may perform climbing, pruning and planting: whilst others may provide a combination of all of these services.
Root Barrier
Tree-root  barriers aid in preventing root growth that could be harmful to your structures or landscape. We can install root barriers as we plant new trees, or we can retrofit our root barrier systems to aid in guiding your current trees’ roots. Tree root barriers are useful for the following circumstances:
Picture
Protect Your Structures
  • Growing roots are very powerful. A growing root can push its way through thick cement. If you’ve got a tree that’s near your building’s foundation, you may want to install a root barrier as a precaution. Also, you can utilize root barriers to prevent sidewalk and driveway cracking. You’d be amazed at how much damage a growing root can cause!
​​
Prevent Exposed Roots
  • Exposed roots can be a serious annoyance throughout your landscape. Installing an appropriate root barrier will ensure that your roots thrive close to their trunk, or far below the surface of your land. Aside from tripping up passersby, in some trees an exposed root will turn into a ‘sucker’ or a new tree structure. These new structures absorb water and nutrients that could go to the parent tree, and they would need to be cut back. Utilize root barriers to prevent these issues.
​
Protect Buried Infrastructure
  • Buried pipelines may be endangered as nearby roots grow. Tree roots can easily work their way into a sewer line, and they can choke off or break a water line. And that can cause serious damage to your landscape that will require many dollars to fix. Instead, purchase peace of mind by installing a root barrier between your tree and your buried infrastructure systems.

Cabling and Bracing
  • Cabling & Bracing - Lombardo Tree Services offers tree cabling and bracing. Our clients rely on tree cabling and bracing to ensure that trees and their limbs won’t fall and damage people or structures. Plus, there are several other benefits to tree cabling and bracing:
Picture
​Save Your Tree’s Life
  • If your tree is structurally unsound, you can use cabling and bracing to keep it upright and alive. Bracing is an excellent solution to keep your tree from failing under its own weight.
​Guide Your Tree’s Growth
  • As your tree grows throughout its lifespan, proper cabling and bracing can guide its growth. If your tree is liable to grow into power lines, we can aid the tree in shifting away from that danger. If your tree is liable to grow into a structure, we can have it twist out of the way.
​Aid Your Tree’s Health
  • Since we can guide your tree with our cabling and bracing, we can aid your tree in living a more fruitful life. Our cabling and bracing can aid your tree’s root structure, or it can move the canopy of your tree towards better lighting.
​Fertilization for Trees
Fertilization - If you’re ignoring the health of your trees, you could be losing money. Property value rises and falls with the quality of a landscape, and trees often provide a first impression to potential buyers. If you’ve got a tree that’s beginning to lose branches, or it has brown dried-out leaves prior to autumn, you should consider fertilizing your trees.
Picture
​Trees often require fertilization at some point in their lifespan. Lawns and landscaping usually absorb the majority of fertilizer that is broadcast only onto the surface. Lombardo Tree Services, however, utilizes deep root feeding techniques. Deep root feeding places these nutrients below the surface where the root hairs can easily absorb these important elements and minerals. We inject these into the soil in a grid pattern to maximize coverage of the root system. This process isn’t invasive at all, so if you’re considering fertilizing a tree in the middle of your yard, or amidst a garden area, you don’t have to worry. We won’t tear up your grass, or any surrounding terrain.
Picture
​Remember, sick trees or declining trees that need care may require several applications per year.
​Lombardo Tree Services offers tree care services and deep fertilization to Atlanta and its surrounding areas of Georgia. Our dry, granular fertilizer program provides controls for crabgrass, weeds and grubs, as well as limestone, so contact us today and see what we can do for you!
