The first step in maintaining your tree's health is regular inspections. Following unusually high winds or storms your trees should be checked for broken limbs that may impact your home or yard. Tree pruning is beneficial to avoid dead limbs from damaging below structures.
Pay attention to discolored bark, smaller or off-colored leaves, insect or fungal activity or visible decay. Your observations may contribute to early detection of potential problems.
Eighty (80%) percent of urban tree decline is root related. Many root issues exist below grade and are not obvious. Consult with a Certified Arborist to check for root conditions that could potentially harm your trees and property.
