Tree Safety During Storm Season

If you haven't noticed, the winds have been picking up, the rain is coming down sideways, and the lightning is putting on a show. As storm season approaches, it's important to make sure your trees are safe and sound. Trees are not only beautiful additions to your property, but they also provide important ecological benefits such as cleaning the air and providing shade. To protect your trees from potential storm damage, there are a few simple steps you can take.

Prune your trees

One important step is to trim your trees. Pruning your trees can help reduce the risk of limbs breaking and causing damage during a storm. Our experts can help you identify the right branches to trim to keep your trees in tip-top shape.
