Tree Trimming

Why Do My Trees Need Tree Trimming or Pruning?

Many property owners aren’t aware of the importance of tree trimming and pruning. Performing regular maintenance keeps your trees strong and healthy. Pruning improves the aesthetics of an entire property by keeping the trees clean and uniform. If you do not perform regular tree trimming, the growing branches can damage fencing, buildings, or nearby power lines. This can be a serious fire hazard for your home or business. If you neglect to maintain a tree that grows near your roof, you can even have your homeowner’s insurance claim denied. Trees add incredible shape, beauty, and color to your property, but proper maintenance is key to keeping your plants healthy and your home or business in good condition.

Extension Saw Tree Trimming

Trees planted in the right spot will thrive for a long, long time. However, even under the best conditions, they can sometimes grow out of control and damage surrounding structures and landscaping. If left too long, lengthy branches may scrape the tiles of your roof, causing costly damage. To prevent this, have your trees trimmed before the growth gets out of hand.

Often, the most troublesome branches are also hard to reach. You could, conceivably, climb the tree; however, this is a fairly hazardous method of tree trimming. We recommend using an extension saw instead. Extension saw tree trimming will remove all troublesome branches before they do any damage to your property. It takes a careful hand and keen eye to keep your tree safe during the trimming process. At Blooms Landcare, we have the right tools and training for any tree trimming job. We want your trees to remain robust and healthy.

Best Time to Trim Trees

As homeowners, we often look for new and innovative ways to care for our lawn. Lawn care, despite what many believe, does include trees and shrubbery. That’s why you should know when to trim trees.

The best time to trim a tree or shrubbery is during late winter, while the tree is dormant. Pruning during a dormant period is vital because:

• Wounds from cutting heal quicker, ensuring the tree remains strong
• There is less risk of disease or pest infestation due to the wintry weather
• The tree has less sap (which can be messy and attract pests) flowing
• Less leaves make it easier to see what you’re cutting

The particular type of pruning changes depending on the type of tree. For example, a conifer should be pruned during winter while fully dormant. A spring-blooming tree, on the other hand, should be pruned immediately after it begins to bloom.

When is the necessary time for tree trimming?

You need to know when to prune your trees. Why? Because you can vastly improve the health of your trees by removing dead or damaged branches. You should immediately remove majorly damaged branches. You should do routine tree trimming, however, in either early spring or late winter. You always want to trim your trees just before the tree’s buds have begun to open.
