BroadLeaf Tree & Shrub Expands Commercial Tree Care Across Durham and the Research Triangle
Nov 9, 2026
Durham's certified arborists are now putting office parks, healthcare campuses and corporate properties at the center of their work, with plant health care, pruning, hazardous tree removal, and land clearing for businesses throughout the Triangle.
Durham, NC, November 9, 2026 -- BroadLeaf Tree & Shrub is directing more of its scheduling toward commercial properties across the Research Triangle. The Durham tree care company, in business since 2018, has taken on business accounts from the start, but in recent months their commercial tree services have become a main focus, with many jobs now landing in the Research Triangle Park.
Commercial clients get the same core services BroadLeaf provides to homeowners: plant health care, structural and clearance pruning, and tree removal for dead or diseased trees. Business properties also bring needs beyond what a homeowner's yard might. Parking lot pruning keeps limbs clear of vehicles, light poles, and walkways before a branch failure becomes a claim. Land clearing is available for companies expanding a site or preparing ground for construction.
Plant health care is at the heart of the company's commercial relationships. Larry Eacret, BroadLeaf's plant health care specialist, assesses trees for disease, pest pressure, and soil stress, then builds treatment plans meant to keep mature trees standing. When a tree is past saving, removal crews work around loading docks, employee parking, and tenant foot traffic using lift and crane equipment sized for larger properties.
"Most of our commercial work is plant health care, pruning, and removing trees that are dead or diseased," said Blake Mills, co-owner of BroadLeaf Tree & Shrub. "Drought stress snowballs. A tree can survive one dry season and still carry that damage into the next, so our focus is on keeping trees healthy before they become a problem. We also prune parking lots to clear hazards, and we take on land clearing when a campus needs room for another building."
Business owners and property managers can book an on-site consultation at broadleaftreeandshrub.com or by calling (919) 632-3565. The consultation carries a fee, and that fee is credited toward the cost of any work BroadLeaf performs. An arborist walks the property, flags the trees or shrubs that need attention, and provides pricing before any work is scheduled.
About the company: BroadLeaf Tree & Shrub is a family-owned tree care company based in Durham, NC, serving businesses and homeowners across the Research Triangle, including Raleigh, Cary, Apex, Chapel Hill, Morrisville, Hillsborough, and Holly Springs. In business since 2018, the company is owned by Blake Mills and Matt Tuttle and specializes in plant health care, tree and shrub pruning, and tree removal. Mills, Tuttle, and plant health care partner Larry Eacret are all certified arborists. BroadLeaf is licensed and fully insured.

He has scored in the Premier League, Champions League and La Liga, and now David Silva can boast about the day he netted in the Hong Kong Premier League. Making his debut for Supreme Sha Tin in their 1-1 draw against BC Rangers on Saturday, World Cup winner Silva rolled home a 56th-minute penalty in front of 4,593 supporters – a first sell-out for Kai Tak Youth Sports Ground in its 20-month history.

Hong Kong star retains passion for ‘brutal’ triathlon after World Cup setback
Bailee Brown said she retained her passion for “brutal and unforgiving” triathlon, but there were “things to sort out” after the Hongkonger’s subpar home World Triathlon Cup performance on Saturday. Managing a stress fracture of her left calf bone, Brown paid heavily for missing her bike in transition following the swim, losing touch with the main pack and coming home 50th in 59 minutes and 34 seconds. The reliably tenacious Hilda Choi Yan-yin placed 37th in 58:06, with Cade Wright 39th in...

Former Australian cricketer Usman Khawaja claims entire team knew about ‘Sandpapergate’
Former opener Usman Khawaja claimed on Saturday that the entire Australian team knew about the 2018 “Sandpapergate” scandal in Cape Town and said they also employed the tactic during the previous Test at Port Elizabeth. Captain Steve Smith, his deputy David Warner and Cameron Bancroft were sent home in disgrace and found by a Cricket Australia (CA) investigation to be the only three players with prior knowledge of the ball-tampering plot. Smith was banned for a year and sacked as skipper, Warner...
Hong Kong grows in popularity for open water swimmers, but some logistics issues remain
When Emeric Payer plunged into the pitch-black waters of Victoria Harbour at 4am on Monday, his coaches’ old jokes about his endurance were still fresh in his mind. A former competitive pool sprinter in the 50-metre freestyle, the 21-year-old was known to fade minutes into longer distance swimming events. But this changed when he completed a solo, unassisted 45-kilometre circumnavigation of Hong Kong Island in the record time of 10 hours, 22 minutes and 59 seconds. The Hong Kong-French swimmer...

Alexandra Shubladze’s mother and coach, Oksana, was overcome with emotion courtside after her daughter beat Sorana Cirstea into retirement on Friday to reach the Prudential Hong Kong Tennis Open semi-finals. Competing in a main WTA 250 draw for the first time, Shubladze, whose progress was stalled by a torn anterior cruciate ligament two years ago, blew away Cirstea, the shell-shocked No 1 seed, 6-2, 6-3 in one hour and 27 minutes. Now, having achieved one “childhood dream” in Hong Kong when she...
Hong Kong triathlon coach’s Hyrox fear, as World Cup arrives in city
Andrew Wright fears that leading triathletes could desert the sport to compete in “simpler and easier” Hyrox, which this week inched closer to Olympic recognition.

Max Stapley, Great...
