4 Warning Signs You Need Tree Trimming Services ASAP!

Published On: August 2nd, 20212.7 min read

Not many people think about the importance of having a relationship with a local tree trimming service. While you may not realize it, chances are you will need some sort of trimming services in the years to come if you own a property with trees.

When that time comes, it’s important to hire a professional company with arborists on staff.  That way you’ll be sure to stay safe and save time. Plus, you’ll reduce any risk of damage to your home and property.

Keep reading for four signs to look out for that may indicate you are in need of tree trimming!

1. Dead Branches

Dead branches are the most common reason homeowners need their trees trimmed. Trees naturally eliminate branches as they mature and it is important to regularly prune them off.

If they are left on the tree these branches will become brittle and have the potential to fall on their own. This can pose a threat to children, vehicles, pets, or anything else located in proximity to the tree.

2. Double Stemmed Trees

If a tree grows to have two main trunks, it oftentimes has a weak union between the two competing leaders. This is the sign of an unstable tree structure that is prone to breaking.

Many times after a storm hits, you will see large limbs split off from the main trunk of a tree and find them laying on the ground. This is a sign that the tree was not trimmed properly in its developing years. It is very important to have a professional tree trimming service assess your tree as it grows so that there is one main leader on the tree.

Call a professional to help you develop a good branching structure on your favorite landscape trees!

3. Trees Touching Powerlines

If your trees are nearing powerlines this is a sure sign that you want to call a tree trimming service. With even the most minor windstorm you could be facing prolonged power outages due to tree limbs disrupting your electrical service.

Be proactive! Don’t risk a power outage or damage to your home when you can have a tree service come out and give you peace of mind.

4. Line of Sight & Clearance 

Our landscape needs to be practical. And if tree branches are impeding your ability to see oncoming traffic as you are pulling out of your driveway, chances are a little trimming could go a long way.

If you have tree limbs hanging low over your driveway or around the perimeter of your yard, don’t wait until they are scraping the top of your car or lawnmower.

Hire a professional tree trimming company to raise the trees safely and efficiently.

Tree Trimming

Now take a look at the trees on your property. If you notice any of these signs it is best to get them addressed before problems arise.

Keep in mind that leaving the work to the professionals will give you all of the benefits of tree trimming without the hassle of doing it yourself.

I would give 6 Stars if I could. This is the third time I've used Justin and his crew of Arbortech. He and his crew go above and beyond in the services they provide. They do all, and then some, of what I contracted them to do. His crew is personable, professional, and tidy. They left my place cleaner than when they got here. Can't say enough. Use them. You won't be disappointed.

Arbor tech and their crew were amazing!!! Not only did I not have to wait a long time to schedule the work, but they also came on time the day of. The crew were friendly, professional and helpful. They went above and beyond what I expected them to do. They even cleaned up afterwards as if they weren’t even there. The price I was quoted was reasonable and they did not charge more than was quoted. The whole experience was fantastic. I will be using them in the future. I highly recommend them! You will not be disappointed.

All aspects of our experience with Arbortech were beyond expectation (5+ stars at all levels). From the scheduling process and ongoing coordination and discussions with Lindsey to the onsite discussions with Justin, and finally with the crew while the work was being done, we couldn't be happier. They listened, they provided insight to our project while remaining very sensitive to our privacy concerns with the trimming of our pines. In an evolving world where a lot of customer care seems to have vanished, we are grateful we found a company where it seems to be a core component of their values. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

From start to finish our experience with Arbortech was wonderful! Lindsey was extremely responsive and worked with us to set up both the estimate and schedule the work. She even communicated with our neighbor to coordinate the timing as we needed to use their driveway for the job. Justin came promptly to look at our trees, explained our options in a very clear an professional way, and gave us an extremely fair estimate. The guys who came and did the work did a really great job and cleaned up everything afterwards, so we (and our neighbor) were very happy. They were also very friendly and gracious even though they were working during a crazy heat wave- they appreciated the popsicles I gave them! I highly recommend Arbortech Tree Service!
