Tree Trimming

As with every other area of your home, it's important to maintain your landscape to keep it looking its best year-round and safe for use by yourself, your loved ones and visitors. This is especially important if you set up a gazebo and garden or an outdoor kitchen. Although you might be tempted to maintain all outdoor areas on your own, some landscape elements require the knowledge and skill of a professional. Maintenance of trees, for example, involves more than yard cleanup of old limbs and leaves. You need a professional tree trimmer for the three critical reasons we explain here.

Rainy weather leaves damaged trees and landscapes

Without proper, year-round, professional tree maintenance, you risk allowing messy and even hazardous conditions to exist in your yard. A single storm can cause even healthy tree limbs to fall and damage a yard; a nearby power, cable, or internet line; an outdoor structure; a motor vehicle; or other property. Professionals know how to reduce the chance of storm-related damage and yard debris by removing dead or dying limbs and thinning out the canopies of all trees before storms. They can also come in after a storm and quickly inspect the trees for serious problems.

Trimming and related services improve the health of trees

Trees can become unhealthy and sickly for a variety of reasons. A storm that breaks healthy branches, rips away bark, or causes trunk splits allows fungi, insects, and other pests an entry point into a tree's interior. Over a surprisingly short period of time, a sick tree can reduce the value of your property by looking ugly or spreading a serious disease or pest to nearby trees. A professional trimmer inspects every tree and comes up with expert solutions for reversing illness, removing untreatable trees, and preventing future harm.

Trimming professionals provide other critical services

Lastly, tree trimming professionals do more than trim trees to reduce potential landscape damage. If you own shade or fruit and nut trees, a tree trimmer can expertly prune them at the right times each year to promote optimal levels of new branch and leaf growth. They also trim shrubs and usually provide total landscape cleanup services. If you need a whole tree removed for any reason, they can quickly and safely bring down the tree, cut it into pieces, and dispose of it. Since old tree stumps attract pests, cause health problems for nearby trees and even allow new sapling growth in undesirable locations, they also typically remove tree stumps and hidden root structures.
