Expert Tree Care Can Prevent Tree Removal and Save You Money

Keeping the trees on your property in good shape with proper maintenance is an ideal way to make sure you don’t have to deal with emergency tree removal, which can be quite costly. If you’ve recently purchased a property and you don’t know much about the maintenance history of the trees, bringing in an arborist for an assessment is a good idea.

Check the Condition, Know the Hazards

Older trees can grow brittle over time. If your trees are all about the same age, it may make financial sense to start a plan for replacing the most vulnerable ones. Your arborist can inform you about any disease threats to watch out for and which trees will be most at risk.

Younger trees that haven’t been pruned can also be unhealthy. Since trees can lower utility costs by shading your home, keeping existing trees healthy is a cost-effective way to add beauty to your property.

Your arborist should view your trees when they’re in full leaf. After inspecting the trees, they may recommend that rubbing branches be removed or that older trees be treated for insect pests. There are many pruning steps, as well as removal processes, that can wait until the tree is dormant.

When a Problem Tree Has to Go

You may have an older tree that is growing roots into your sewer line or foundation. It may be dropping branches on your property, threatening your home or outbuildings. Removing the tree will be more cost-effective than fixing your roof or foundation.

If you’re planning a tree removal project, you should take a moment to consider:

  • What you want to do with the wood
  • When you will have the stump ground out
  • What you will plant in place of the recently removed tree

If the tree is not diseased, it may make the most sense to get it ground into mulch. A good coating of free mulch can help you protect soil from runoff and reduce how much water you need to use on your plants, further saving you money. Your arborist can suggest the best trees to plant to resist pests and pathogens in the future. They can also help you develop a pruning plan for a healthy canopy.

Like the health of any living thing, the trees on your property will thrive with regular monitoring, care and pruning. Reap the financial savings of professional tree removal services in Vallejo, CA by calling the professionals at EZ Tree Inc.
