The certified arborists at Marquis Tree Services deliver specialized deep root fertilization services throughout Billerica and surrounding communities. The health and beauty of your trees begin below the surface, and in Massachusetts’ challenging soil conditions, nutrition is the foundation for maintaining vibrant, resilient trees and shrubs.
Deep root fertilization is a specialized tree care technique that delivers essential nutrients directly to a tree’s root zone. Unlike surface fertilization methods, our process injects customized nutrient solutions deep into the soil, where tree roots actively grow and absorb nutrients.
At Marquis Tree Service, we understand that urban and suburban trees face unique challenges that their forest counterparts don’t experience. Leaf removal, soil compaction, and competition with lawns and landscapes often deprive trees of natural nutrient cycling. Our deep root fertilization services address these deficiencies, restoring vital nutrients to help your trees thrive.
With over 30 years of experience serving Massachusetts properties, our certified arborists develop fertilization prescriptions tailored explicitly to local soil conditions and tree species.
Before recommending any treatment, our certified arborists conduct thorough soil testing to identify specific nutrient deficiencies and soil composition issues affecting your trees.
Based on soil analysis, tree species, and specific site conditions, we create custom-blended fertilizer solutions to address your trees’ unique nutritional needs.
Using specialized equipment, we inject fertilizer solutions at multiple points throughout the root zone, ensuring even distribution and maximum absorption.
We provide strategically timed applications to support your trees through seasonal growth cycles and stressors common in Massachusetts.
To combat soil compaction in urban and suburban environments, we incorporate aeration techniques that improve oxygen levels, water penetration, and nutrient absorbtion.

The Massachusetts climate creates specific windows when deep root fertilization is most effective:
Our certified arborists schedule treatments strategically based on tree species, weather conditions, and your property’s specific needs.
Signs include yellowing leaves, reduced growth, thinning canopy, and dieback of branches. Trees in urban settings, those surrounded by lawns, or properties where leaves are regularly removed typically benefit most from supplemental fertilization.
Most established trees benefit from deep root fertilization once or twice yearly. Newly planted trees, stressed trees, or those recovering from construction damage may require more frequent applications. Our arborists will recommend a schedule based on your specific trees and conditions.
Yes. Our targeted application method delivers nutrients directly to the root zone with minimal runoff. We use environmentally responsible formulations and application rates based on soil testing to avoid over-fertilization.
While not a cure-all, proper fertilization often plays a vital role in tree health recovery, especially when the decline is nutrition-related. Early intervention yields the best results, which is why we recommend regular professional assessments.
Some trees show visible improvement within weeks, while others may take a full growing season to display significant changes. The benefits of improved root development and enhanced stress tolerance begin immediately, even when not visibly apparent.
