Professional Tree Planting Across Monroe County

The right tree in the right spot adds privacy, shade, curb appeal, and measurable property value. The wrong tree in the wrong spot becomes a problem you deal with for years — or pay to remove. Spartan Tree & Landscape eliminates the guesswork. We evaluate your site, recommend species matched to your soil, sunlight, drainage, and goals, and install with professional-grade technique that gives every tree the best possible start.

Arborvitae & Privacy Barrier Planting

Privacy screens are our most-requested planting service. Arborvitae — particularly the Emerald Green and Green Giant varieties — deliver year-round, evergreen coverage that transforms exposed yards into private retreats. We install at proper spacing with amended soil, thorough watering, and mulch. The result is a clean, uniform screen that fills in quickly and requires minimal maintenance for decades.

  • Emerald Green arborvitae: Compact, columnar form (3–4 feet wide at maturity). Ideal for standard residential lots. Matures at 12–15 feet.
  • Green Giant arborvitae: Faster growth, taller mature height (40–60 feet). Best for larger properties wanting maximum screening.
  • Eastern White Pine: Softer, more natural look. Fast-growing. Good for rural borders and large-lot screening.
  • Mixed evergreen screens: Combine arborvitae with spruce, pine, or holly for visual variety and better disease resistance.

Shade Trees, Ornamentals & Replacements

Beyond privacy, we plant shade trees that cool your home and add canopy value (red maple, sugar maple, red oak, linden), ornamental trees that enhance curb appeal (flowering dogwood, Japanese maple, cherry, serviceberry), and replacement trees for canopy lost to storms, EAB, or age. Every species we recommend has a proven track record in Monroe County's climate and soil conditions.

What It Costs

Individual shade trees typically run $350–$800 installed depending on species and caliper. Arborvitae privacy rows range from $150–$350 per tree installed, with volume pricing for rows of 10 or more. Every project starts with a free on-site consultation — no pressure, no obligation, firm pricing.
