M and A Tree Services | Professional Landscaping Services in Somerville, NJ

Absolutely. In Somerville, these issues are often related. Our landscape maintenance includes evaluating drainage, aerating soil, and recommending plantings that thrive in local conditions. We can also assess if overhanging trees are creating too much shade or if root systems are contributing to poor drainage, and provide targeted tree care or pruning as part of the solution.

Proper tree pruning opens the canopy, allowing more sunlight to reach your lawn and dry damp areas. For larger, mature trees that may have structural issues, cabling and bracing can secure heavy limbs, preventing failure that could damage your yard's grading and drainage systems. It's a proactive step to protect your landscape's integrity.

We recommend removal for trees that are dead, diseased, or dangerously unstable. A decaying tree can have a root system that fails to absorb water, contributing to soil saturation. Removing such a tree, followed by professional stump removal, allows us to regrade the area, improve drainage, and gives you a clean slate for new, healthy plantings suited to our local environment.
