Essential Tree Service

Although many homeowners seldom think about the trees living around their house or yard, they are shocked when a tree comes crashing down with a light wind. Most people assume that since an old tree has been there for many decades, it will stay there for many years to come. Most often it is not the entire tree but a large heavy branch that has become so weak that one day it will fall off seemingly for no reason, and crush anything under it.

Companies that specialize in tree service perform essential maintenance by doing periodic maintenance on trees, trimming branches that are sprouting beyond property boundaries or are too close to power lines or the roof or other parts of the house, where a strong wind could cause them to scrape the structure. A trained tree maintenance crew can also check for damage caused by diseases that affect trees. Often animals will drill holes into trees to use as a dwelling or to raise their young, which could weaken the tree. Roots of trees can sometimes spread into the foundation of a house and damage drainage pipes, resulting in expensive Plumbing repairs.

Having routine tree service inspections done once or twice a year lets homeowners know when it is time to tear down a tree. If another tree is desired, a specialist can recommend what type of tree is best for the soil on the property and the climate in the area, and what care it will need for healthy growth. Trees provide shade to houses that face the sun, allowing the air conditioning system to use less energy to cool the house. Trees also clean the air and give out oxygen into the atmosphere. Trees provide a home for a variety of wildlife that keep mosquitos and other unwelcome bugs under control. Trees do a lot for the world, and life as we know it would not exist without them.
