Late summer into early fall is a good window for deep root fertilization, especially for trees that have been through a stressful growing season. ACE injects nutrients directly into the root zone, well below where surface watering or lawn fertilizer ever reaches.

It's especially useful for trees that are recovering from construction damage, drought stress, or an insect or disease issue earlier in the year. Getting nutrients into the root system now helps a tree build reserves before it goes dormant for winter.

This is one of the plant health care services that goes beyond basic tree care, treating the whole tree rather than just trimming what's visible above ground. It's a quieter kind of maintenance, but it makes a real difference over time.

Has one of your trees looked a little thinner or slower to leaf out than usual this year?

Every piece of equipment ACE brings onto a job site, from a new saw to a rented crane, gets a hands-on training run with the crew before it's used on an actual removal. It's a standard we hold ourselves to, not something a customer has to ask about.

Complex jobs in tight Birmingham lots, near power lines, or close to a home's foundation leave very little room for error. A crew that knows its equipment inside and out works faster and safer, and it shows in the cleanup and the final result.

It's a small thing customers rarely see directly, but it's part of why jobs get finished in a day instead of stretching into a second visit. Thoroughness on the front end saves time and worry for everyone involved.

What matters most to you when you're deciding who to trust with a job on your property: speed, communication, or something else?

A tree that looks perfectly healthy above ground can be slowly strangling itself below the surface. Girdling roots happen when a tree's roots wrap around its own trunk or root flare instead of growing outward, often because it was planted too close to a sidewalk, driveway, or foundation.

Over years, the wrapped root tightens like a belt and cuts off the tree's own circulation. It's one of the more common problems we find on trees planted along Birmingham's older streets and subdivisions, where root space was limited from the start.

The tricky part is that a tree with girdling roots can look fine for a long time before it starts declining, so the earlier it's caught, the more options there are to correct it. Sometimes it's a simple root pruning fix; other times it points to a bigger structural issue.

Do you know if any of your trees were planted close to concrete, a fence line, or a foundation?

Weeks of late-summer heat without much rain are starting to show up on Birmingham's shade trees, and one of the clearest signs is vertical cracking in the bark. Drought-stressed trees pull moisture from their outer layers first, and the bark can split as the trunk contracts.

It looks alarming, but a stressed tree isn't automatically a lost one. What matters is how deep the cracking goes and whether the tree is showing other symptoms like early leaf drop or thinning higher up in the canopy.

Established trees can usually recover with deep watering and a proper assessment, but younger or newly planted trees are more vulnerable and worth checking sooner rather than later. A quick evaluation now can prevent a bigger problem once cooler weather sets in.

Have you noticed any cracking or splitting bark on trees in your yard this summer?

Not every structural problem in a tree means it has to come down. Cabling and bracing let ACE support a weak branch union or a split trunk from the inside, giving a tree years of extra life instead of an automatic removal.

We typically recommend it for large, otherwise healthy trees with a codominant stem or a crack that hasn't compromised the whole structure. A properly installed cable system redistributes the load so wind and weight don't concentrate on the weak point.

It's one of the services that separates a full-service arborist from a crew that only knows how to cut trees down. For homeowners with a mature tree they'd rather save than lose, it's often the option nobody mentioned until we walked the property.

Do you have a large tree with a split or a lean that's made you nervous, but you're not ready to remove it?

09/03/2026

Removing a tree is never the goal at ACE; it's what happens when preservation options run out. When removal is the only responsible choice, our crews talk with homeowners about what comes next for that space, including replanting with species suited to Central Alabama's soil and climate.

Native trees like Southern red oak, American holly, and river birch tend to handle Alabama summers and clay soil better than transplanted ornamentals, and they support the local ecosystem in ways non-native trees don't.

It's a small part of the job, but it matters to us. A property that loses a hazardous tree doesn't have to lose its canopy for good, and homeowners appreciate having a plan for what's next instead of just a stump.

If you've had a tree removed in the past, did anyone talk to you about replanting, or did that conversation never come up?

A leaning tree near a power line looks like a weekend project until you're the one standing under it with a chainsaw. The lean itself is only part of the risk. What's happening underground and at the point of contact with the line matters just as much.

Root damage, soil saturation, or a split trunk can change how a tree falls in ways that aren't obvious from the ground. Add a power line into the equation, and a miscalculation stops being just expensive; it becomes dangerous for the person cutting and anyone nearby.

ACE handles these calls specifically because of that combination of risk. Our crews coordinate with the utility when a line is involved and use rigging and directional felling techniques that keep the fall controlled, not guessed at.

Do you have a leaning tree on your property that's been on your someday list? What's been holding you back from having it looked at?

Alabama's tree stress season continues into late summer and early fall with the potential for tropical storm remnants from the Gulf. Trees already stressed by heat and moisture are more likely to lose limbs in strong winds.

Our ISA Certified Arborist examines branch attachments and canopy balance, as storm damage often begins at hidden weak points. Properties in Central Alabama with mature trees near homes, driveways, or power lines should undergo a pre-storm inspection now to avoid emergencies later.

Has your property been checked for pruning this summer? What do you want to know before the next storm? 🌳💨

A home's curb appeal begins well before the front door, and in Birmingham's older neighborhoods, mature trees play a crucial role. A well-maintained canopy signals a cared-for property.

Overgrown limbs or uneven crowns can detract from even the best exterior. Our ISA Certified Arborist assesses both structure and health to ensure pruning enhances safety and appearance.

In neighborhoods like Homewood and Vestavia, tree-lined streets are a major draw for buyers. A clean, proportionate canopy is an easy upgrade for homeowners.

Is your canopy due for a shape-up before fall? Have you had it professionally shaped recently? 🌳✨
