Trees are one of the most desired features of any property. Their foliage adds beautiful color and welcomed shade; there’s nothing better than sitting underneath a well-established tree on a warm day and soaking in that cool shade or see the leaves come back to life in the spring and watching them change a rainbow of colors in the autumn.
If you want to maximize the enjoyment of your arboreal friends, whether broad-leafed or evergreen, taking proper care of them is essential. While fertilizing and watering are the foundations of tree care, there’s another component that’s just as important: tree cutting.
Here’s a look at five reasons why tree cutting is a good idea.
It Supports their Health
Think of the limbs and branches of a tree as the tresses in your mane. Just like your hair needs to be cut to maintain its health; so do your trees. If let your hair grow without trimming it every once in a while, split ends, frays, and other damage are bound to happen. The same idea can be applied to your trees. If they become overgrown, they can become entwined and entangled, which can cause serious damage, such as splits, cracks, and worn off pieces of bark.
By having your trees trimmed and pruned by a professional arborist, you can prevent extensive damage that could potentially endanger the entire structure. Furthermore, the cutting and removal of excess and overgrown branches will ensure that vital water and nutrients are distributed throughout the tree, as well as allow air and sunlight to reach all parts of the structure, further improving its health.
It Improves its Beauty
To again equate cutting trees to cutting hair, it improves their beauty. Notice how your hair looks fresh and beautiful after you’ve had it cut? The same is true for trees. When excess branches and limbs are thinned out and cut back, the overall beauty of a tree significantly improves. Additionally, a professional will be able to properly shape the tree, further improving its aesthetic appeal.
It Reduces the Risk of Property Damage and Personal Injuries
Not only do overgrown trees inflict damage on themselves; they can also damage surround structures and other property. When a tree is laden with cumbersome branches, its structural integrity can become compromised. Eventually, it may not be able to support its own weight and could end up toppling down. If that tree falls on top of a building, a vehicle, an animal, or even a person, it can cause serious harm. Add to that the fact that unkempt branches can rub into buildings or become ensnared in power lines and they can cause extensive damage. To reduce the risk of damage – not just to the tree, but also to surrounding objects and living beings – having your trees pruned, trimmed, and the cut is essential.
It can Save Money
How can cutting a tree save you money? Well, when you consider the extensive amount of damage a tree that’s in a state of disrepair can cause, it’s easy to see how it can end up being a costly hazard. Should the tree end up damaging surrounding property, any repairs that might be needed can be exceptionally expensive. Worse yet, should someone sustain an injury as a result of a poorly cared for the tree, the related medical bills can be astronomical? To avoid exorbitant – and unnecessary – expenses, you should definitely make regular tree cutting a part of your landscape routine.
It Boosts Curb Appeal
Not only does trimming and otherwise cutting your trees improve the beauty of the structure itself, but it also boosts the overall curb appeal of your property. When your trees are overgrown, misshapen, and just look like they’re in bad shape, the aesthetics of your landscape are no doubt going to suffer. If you want your property to be as visually appealing as possible, having a professional cut back your trees is a must.
