🌱 What is Plant health care?

Plant Health Care is a proactive, holistic approach to keeping your trees and landscape healthy. Instead of waiting for a problem to appear, PHC focuses on prevention, early detection, and targeted treatment.

A strong PHC program can:

  • Prevent or control pests and diseases

  • Strengthen plant immunity

  • Improve soil quality and nutrient balance

  • Treat harmful fungi and insect infestations

  • Reduce stress caused by drought, heat, or poor soil

  • Extend the lifespan and beauty of your landscape

Think of PHC as routine medical care—but for your outdoor plants.

Signs Your Trees or Plants Need Help

You may need Plant Health Care if you notice:

  • Bark peeling or cracking

  • Holes in leaves

  • Dead branches

  • Spots, fungus, mold, or abnormal growth

  • Insects on branches or at the base of the tree

  • Slow or stunted growth

If something “just doesn’t look right,” we can diagnose the issue and recommend the best treatment.

  • Why Homeowners Choose High Falls Tree Service

    “You never know what you are going to get when you call for a contracting service. The best you can do is get recommendations. You can read the reviews on Yelp or Google. That was the case for my call for tree service. I read reviews and called a couple of companies. Some of them never returned my calls. High Falls Tree Service returned my call promptly, and the work was amazing. We had a 60-70ft pine dying in our front yard. They came out to remove it and said it would take two hours. Not only were they done in less than two hours, but they also cleaned up all the debris and chips in our driveway, my neighbors’ driveway, the street in front of the house, and even our little front porch. They were fast, efficient, and worked beautifully as a team. If you need tree guys, call for them.”

  • WHY HOMEOWNERS CHOOSE HIGH FALLS TREE SERVICE

    “I could not have asked for better service for the removal of a large tree from my yard than I received from High Falls. The quote was given the same day, and service was rendered on schedule. They needed to avoid my home, patio, shed, and a hot tub, and did so with the right equipment and crew, with no damage. They had this tree down in 4 hours, and with total cleanup. Price was very reasonable, and the crew was top-notch, friendly, and courteous. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone.”
