Felipe J Pascual Landscaping - Fort Myers's Experienced Landscaping

In Fort Myers, surface roots from trees like oaks and palms are common. We offer professional root pruning to safely manage growth without harming the tree, followed by topdressing and re-sodding the damaged lawn area. For severe cases, we can recommend strategic replanting with more suitable, shallow-rooted native species to prevent future issues.

Exposed palm roots can be a tripping hazard and indicate soil erosion. While you should never simply cut them, our experts can address the underlying cause. We carefully grade and add appropriate soil around the base, improving stability and safety. For a lasting solution, we may also install a decorative rock or mulch bed to cover the area aesthetically and protect the roots.

Prevention starts with the right tree in the right place. Our team provides consultations on selecting trees with less aggressive root systems for Fort Myers yards. For existing trees, we implement deep-root fertilization and proper watering schedules to encourage roots to grow downward, and we use specialized aeration techniques to alleviate soil compaction that forces roots to the surface.
