Trimming your trees can help homeowners create the perfect yard, but it’s also a critical safety step.

It’s tempting to neglect tree trimming, especially when money is tight. Often homeowners make the mistake of thinking that tree trimming isn’t a critical service. In reality, regularly trimming the trees and shrubs in your yard is an investment in overall yard health - and most importantly, safety. While landscaping can bring up the property value of your home, add beauty, and boost curb appeal it often isn’t thought of as an essential safety step. Skipping a yearly tree-trimming service can impact the overall health of your yard, creating strain on even the healthiest trees and brewing up the perfect conditions for a disaster.

Tree Health is Yard Health
Contrary to popular belief, letting a tree grow wildly can negatively affect the health of a tree. Untrimmed trees can become weak and brittle, or grow in a direction otherwise detrimental to their health. Sometimes trees grow towards powerlines or fences, putting their health at risk. Trees are often trimmed to promote their health. This service is known as pruning. Pruning trees removes diseased, weak, or infested branches in order to promote the overall wellbeing of the plant. Often, ignoring a diseased branch can weaken the trunk or roots of the entire tree, making it unstable and dangerous. Pruning a tree once a year for a smaller price can help homeowners avoid future large-scale pruning or cabling incidents. Weak trees are also less likely to survive, which leads to the next point.

Tree Trimming Puts Safety First
The safety of your property is always of the utmost importance, second only to the safety of yourself and your family. Take it from people who have responded to many tree service emergencies: a dead or tree can pose a significant risk to both. Consistent tree trimming can lengthen the life of your trees and reduce the risks imposed by weak branches and limbs. Trees with dead, infested, or diseased branches are a hazard during even a light wind. Dead trees or trees with weak roots can easily fall on your property - risking the safety of your home and family - during a storm. This is the most critical reason to trim your trees. If a small tree trimming fee now could avoid loss of property or life down the line, wouldn't you take that exchange? Instead of waiting until it’s too late to avoid costly home repairs and tree removal services, simply schedule a time yearly to have your trees inspected for health and trimmed accordingly. Although regular tree trimming can improve the overall beauty and curb appeal of a home, it can be tempting to neglect this service. Often homeowners decide to forgo tree trimming to save money or time. However in reality, trimming your trees regularly is beneficial both financially and from a safety standpoint. Neglecting yearly tree trimming can seem like a good idea until the health of your trees are compromised. Don’t let simple tree maintenance escalate into an emergency situation!
