“I highly recommend Buffalo Tree Soldiers! I had two small dead trees in my backyard, one of which had snapped at the base and was leaning against a healthy tree and my neighbor’s fence. It was a situation I didn’t feel comfortable handling myself, so I reached out to Buffalo Tree Soldiers. Roy responded quickly and came out the very same morning to assess the job. After inspecting the trees, he offered to take care of everything that same day. I was extremely happy to have the issue resolved so quickly and professionally. The service was excellent from start to finish. Roy was knowledgeable, friendly, and efficient. The pricing was fair and affordable, and the work was completed safely and promptly. If you’re looking for fast, reliable, and professional tree service, Buffalo Tree Soldiers is the company to call. It’s refreshing to find a local company that delivers exactly what they promise.”

How we work
How We Install Trees in Western New York
Tree installation is more than digging a hole. Species choice, site conditions, planting technique, and aftercare all affect whether your investment pays off. Our crew follows industry planting standards adapted for Buffalo's clay-heavy soils, compacted urban lots, and harsh winters.
Right Tree, Right Place — for Buffalo Properties
Western New York homeowners plant trees for many reasons — replacing a mature tree lost to storm damage, shading a south-facing patio, screening a neighbor's view, or improving curb appeal before a sale. The wrong species in the wrong spot creates problems fast: roots lifting sidewalks, branches rubbing roofs, or trees that cannot handle lake-effect snow loads. We help you choose trees that fit your property's sun exposure, soil drainage, available space, and long-term maintenance goals — not just what looks good in a nursery photo.
Popular choices across the Buffalo metro include hardy maples, oaks, serviceberry, flowering crabapple, and native species that support local pollinators. We consider mature height and spread, overhead utilities, proximity to structures, and whether you need a fast-growing shade tree or a slower, longer-lived specimen. If you already have a tree selected, we can install it. If you need guidance, we will recommend options that perform well in Amherst, Cheektowaga, Tonawanda, and similar WNY communities.
Professional Planting Technique
Improper planting is one of the most common reasons new trees fail within the first few years. Planting too deep buries the root flare and leads to girdling roots and trunk decay. Planting too shallow leaves roots exposed and unstable. We locate the root flare, set the tree at the correct depth, backfill with native soil, and eliminate air pockets so roots establish cleanly.
- Root-ball and container tree handling without trunk damage
- Correct depth — root flare visible at grade
- Backfill and initial watering at installation
- Mulch ring applied correctly (not volcano mulching)
- Staking only when needed for stability
- Post-planting care instructions for the first growing season
Replanting After Removal or Stump Grinding
Many Buffalo homeowners install a new tree in the same area where an old one was removed or ground out. That is often a great plan — but timing and site prep matter. We recommend allowing stump grindings to settle, adding topsoil where needed, and choosing a species appropriate for the available root zone. If you are replanting near a former large tree, we can advise on spacing and species that will not compete with remaining root material while the site recovers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Tree Installation FAQs — Buffalo, NY
Have a question we didn't answer? Call us or request a free estimate.
Spring and fall are generally the best planting windows in Western New York. Spring planting gives roots time to establish before summer heat. Fall planting — typically from late September through early November — takes advantage of cooler temperatures and soil moisture before winter dormancy. Summer planting is possible with extra watering but requires more attention. We can advise on timing based on species and your site conditions.
