Hello World! Welcome Friends! With hurricane season on the weather map, with winter to follow, it’s a good idea to check the condition of trees in your yard.
Adding landscape maintenance to your calendar is important so that you’re not seeking Tree Trimming Charlotte only in an emergency. Hurricanes may not land in your neighborhood, but they can produce tropical storms and winds that leave a path of tree debris. Winter and other wind events can bear down on trees and shrubs with damaging results.
Maintenance Can Mean Preservation of Foliage and Property
At a distance, trees may appear beautiful, strong and disease-free. A closer look may reveal signs of distress, such as dead limbs, cracks or infestations. Age also can exact a toll.
Taking care of trouble spots can save a tree, and trimming can prevent hazards and property damage caused by falling branches and trees.
Tilting Trees and Dead Limbs Are Silent Calls for Action
Like gardens and homes, trees and shrubs in residential settings need some regular attention, with visual inspections at a minimum. Are trees upright with leaf-filled branches during summer? Are there hollows or signs of decay?
Check the soil at the base of the tree for soft spots or cracks, which may indicate root problems. A tree that is leaning may be damaged, and it could topple during high winds or heavy storms.
Windy Weather Could Make the Boughs Break
Cracks in branches or trunks are signs that a tree is in some distress. Hanging limbs may be dead or dying, and those branches pose risks of falling off. Pruning can be corrective, and professional consultants can help determine if trimming would resolve issues or if a tree needs to be taken down.
Hurricane season in the Atlantic Basin extends from early June to the end of November, though its peak is from mid-August to late October. By becoming familiar with the condition of trees outside of hurricane and rainy seasons, you’ll be better prepared for bad weather and its aftermath.
Your property inspection after a storm should include trees. Broken branches and debris near buildings and in driveways will require immediate cleanup. Damaged or downed trees would need to be removed by professionals with appropriate equipment.
Nurture Can Enhance Nature and Be Preventive
Tree beauty is much a matter of nature. Landscape maintenance that includes trees can add to your tree’s health, appearance and longevity. That maintenance also is a step toward personal and property safety.
