Services
Tree Care
Our comprehensive tree care includes emergency services, precision pruning, stump grinding, and safe removals performed by NY State Certified Arborists. We specialize in vista pruning to enhance views while maintaining tree health, using climbing techniques with chain saws and long pruning saws. All work follows ANSI A300 standards with meticulous cleanup included.
Plant Healthcare
Customized plant healthcare programs diagnose and treat pests and diseases through root fertilization, horticultural oil treatments, and deer browsing prevention. We implement tick control measures and selective pesticide applications while maintaining full transparency through chemical disclosure labels for all treatments.
Landscape Design
We create sustainable landscapes balancing hardscapes, softscapes, and functional elements tailored to client preferences. Services include herb/vegetable gardens, natural privacy screens, and water features like ponds. Our designs consider energy efficiency benefits from strategic tree placement and use native plants for ecological harmony.
Rain Gardens
Eco-friendly rain gardens capture stormwater runoff to prevent flooding and pollution while recharging aquifers. These native plant gardens filter 30% more water into the ground, creating habitats for pollinators while maintaining aesthetic appeal through carefully planned vegetation layers.
Construction
Our construction team builds patios, walkways, and outdoor living spaces using natural stone and durable materials. We integrate fire pits, seating areas, and custom water features that seamlessly blend with existing landscapes, creating functional extensions of living spaces with lasting value.

Report
Last fall this company came and did $15K worth of work that we paid on time for. I had some issues that arose over the winter with some of the plantings as spring hit that I wanted Leighton to come back and look at. After a month of calling, texting and emailing with no response it has become apparent that this company does not care about the job nor the customer after the work is done and they have their money. I will never do business with them again and I'll tell everyone I know the same thing. DO NOT USE

Report
I hired North Island Nursery Tree and Landscaping (aka North Shore Tree and Landscaping according to the BBB) to trim my trees. I discussed at length with Jim Dublar there just what we wanted and emphatically did not want done. The crew arrived, without benefit of Jim's supervision, and promptly violated our written and oral instructions. When we complained to Jim that our trees had been mutilated and for some reason our instructions ignored, he said "mistakes happen, we did our best". He refused to replace the damaged trees and we heard no further from him.
