Preparing Your Trees for Storms and Recovering from Severe Weather
Bothell homeowners who pride themselves on their lush lawns and pristine landscaping are often frustrated by the damage that severe storms can do to their properties. Storm and disaster response from tree removal contractors is usually required in these instances, but there are some ways to lesson the impact of storms on the trees in your lawn so that you don’t have to spend an extended period of time clearing debris and removing trees.
Tips for Storm Preparation
- Inspect trees for cracking, leaning, and decay.
- Remove damaged limbs and branches to eliminate potential hazards.
- Keep a tree removal contractor’s contact information on hand so that you can reach them easily if you require assistance after severe weather.
- Hire a tree service company to remove branches near utility lines.
Tips for Storm Recovery
-
- Be cautious around leaning or fallen trees next to power lines.
- Watch out for damaged limbs and hanging branches.
- Examine trees for broken limbs, crowns, and trunks.
- Leave storm recovery tasks to tree removal professionals if you believe that restoring your yard to its former state alone presents a serious risk.
Homeowners shouldn’t just assume that their trees are in perfect health, and even if their trees are healthy, they can still be damaged by strong winds. A lawn ravaged by heavy storms is more than an eyesore. It’s a hazard that presents the possibility of bodily injury, so performing storm recovery tasks carefully is crucial. Regardless of the extent of the damage, if you don’t have the tools or expertise to tackle lawn recovery efforts properly, you shouldn’t improvise just to get the job done. Hiring Ace Tree Service, an experienced tree removal company, to clean up your yard after a storm is the safest choice for your Bothell household, property, and landscaping.
