Professional Tree Care Flanders

What Proper Tree Care Actually Does

Your property stays safe. That’s the bottom line when trees are maintained correctly by people who know what they’re doing.

You don’t wake up after storms wondering if that oak tree is going to come down on your roof. You don’t have dead branches hanging over your driveway, waiting to fall on your car. Your trees look healthy, your property value stays protected, and you can actually enjoy your yard instead of worrying about it.

Professional tree care means knowing which trees need attention before they become problems. It means proper pruning that keeps trees strong, not butchered cutting that weakens them. When you need a tree removed, it comes down safely without damaging your house, your neighbor’s fence, or your prized garden beds.

How do I know if a tree needs to be removed?

Dead trees, trees with significant structural damage, or trees that pose immediate risks to your property should be removed. Signs include large dead branches, hollow trunks, root damage, or trees leaning toward structures. Our certified arborists can assess your trees and identify genuine safety concerns versus cosmetic issues. Sometimes a tree that looks problematic can be saved with proper care, while healthy-looking trees might have hidden structural problems. A professional evaluation gives you accurate information about which trees need removal and which ones can be maintained safely.

What's the difference between tree trimming and pruning?

Tree trimming typically refers to cutting back overgrown branches for appearance and basic maintenance. Pruning is more precise – removing specific branches to improve tree health, structure, and safety. Proper pruning removes dead, diseased, or crossing branches while maintaining the tree’s natural shape and strength. Poor pruning can actually weaken trees and create more problems. Our certified arborists understand tree biology and use proper techniques that promote healthy growth rather than just cutting back branches randomly.

Do you provide emergency tree services after storms?

Yes, we respond to storm damage situations where trees create immediate hazards to people or property. This includes trees that have fallen on structures, are hanging dangerously, or are blocking access roads. Emergency tree service focuses on making the situation safe quickly, though complete cleanup and restoration work typically happens once the immediate danger is addressed. We prioritize calls based on safety risks – trees threatening occupied buildings or blocking emergency access get first attention.

How much does tree removal cost in Flanders?

Tree removal costs depend on the tree’s size, location, and complexity of the job. A small tree in an open area costs much less than a large tree near power lines or structures. Factors affecting price include tree height, trunk diameter, proximity to buildings, access for equipment, and disposal requirements. We provide detailed written estimates that explain the work involved and associated costs. Emergency removals typically cost more than planned removals due to the urgent nature and additional safety precautions required.

Are you licensed and insured for tree work?

Yes, we’re fully licensed and carry comprehensive insurance including general liability and workers’ compensation. This protects you from liability if accidents occur on your property during tree work. We can provide proof of insurance before starting any job. Working with unlicensed or uninsured tree services puts your property and finances at serious risk. Professional tree work involves significant safety hazards and potential for property damage, making proper licensing and insurance essential for your protection.

When is the best time to trim trees?

The best timing for tree trimming depends on the tree species and the purpose of the work. Most trees benefit from pruning during dormant season (late fall through early spring) when they’re not actively growing. However, dead or hazardous branches should be removed immediately regardless of season. Some trees, like maples and birches, are best pruned in late summer to avoid excessive sap bleeding. Our arborists recommend appropriate timing based on your specific trees and the type of work needed to promote healthy growth and minimize stress on the trees.
