When Do You Need to Hire a Professional Tree Service Company?
Trees are more than just natural decorations for your yard. They provide shade, improve air quality, and even increase property value. But maintaining trees requires regular care, and sometimes, professional intervention is necessary. Whether you're a homeowner or a property manager, knowing when to call in the professionals can save you time, effort, and even prevent potential hazards.
Tree Services a Professional Tree Company Can Handle
Tree Removal
Removing a tree might seem like a simple task, but it’s one of the most complex and dangerous jobs when it comes to tree care. You should hire a professional tree service company in the following situations:
- A Dead or Dying Tree
Trees that have died or are severely damaged pose safety risks. Dead limbs can fall unexpectedly, threatening people, vehicles, or nearby structures.
- Root Issues
If roots are growing into pipes, foundations, or sidewalks, tree removal might be necessary to prevent structural damage.
- Dangerous Locations
Trees leaning toward homes, powerlines, or other buildings require the precision of experts with the right equipment. This ensures safety during removal.
Stump Removal and Grinding
Once a tree is removed, the stump remains. Removing a stump without the proper machinery can be nearly impossible. Professional tree services use specialized grinders and equipment to safely and efficiently remove stumps. While it may not seem like a big deal, stumps can:
- Become a breeding ground for pests like termites and ants.
- Pose a tripping hazard, especially for children or pets.
- Prevent you from using the space for landscaping or other projects.
Pruning and Maintenance
Regular pruning keeps trees healthy, boosts their growth, and prevents potential hazards. But not all pruning is as simple as trimming off a stray branch. Professionals can help with:
- Tree Overgrowth
Overgrown branches can block sunlight, grow into nearby powerlines, or crowd other trees. Proper pruning requires knowledge of which branches to remove to support healthy growth. - Broken or Hanging Branches
After strong winds or storms, hanging limbs become a safety hazard. Professionals know how to safely remove these branches without damaging the tree or nearby property. - Shape and Aesthetics
Well-maintained trees can transform the look of a yard. Certified arborists understand how to shape trees while fostering their natural growth patterns.
