Air Spade - Cutting Edge Tree Care

Technological advances are continuously making their mark within the tree care industry. One of the newest trends is the use of the Air Spade.  Originally, these tools were developed as a means to excavate unexploded landmines by the military and to help free miners trapped by cave-ins. These tools utilize a focused, high pressure stream of air which allows for soil to be excavated without damage to structures in the surrounding soil. The Air Spade allows Seascape to perform soil work safely, efficiently and without damage to buried roots, underground wires  or irrigation systems. These new tools have eliminated the use of heavy mechanical drills to breakthrough compacted soils and the need to excavate soil by hand from around root collars or buried utilities.
