Tree Trimming
Tree trimming is about more than just keeping your trees looking their best – it can help keep you, passers-by and your home safe. Our tree service company has been servicing residential and commercial properties in King, Snohomish, Pierce and Kitsap counties with 15 years of experience.
Did you know that it has been estimated that about 20 percent of all power outages are caused by limbs or trees that have fallen and come into contact with electrical lines? You certainly don’t want to be responsible for a power outage in your community, do you? That is among a variety of reasons that tree trimming is so important. These fallen branches can also cause power surges, fires and electrical spikes. If you see a weak tree limb, it should be corrected immediately.
A weak tree branch can also cause wires to sag down to the ground or even break, which also poses a serious threat to anyone passing by. And not only could someone get hurt, but it can also be a liability for you.
Do you have children in your neighborhood who like to climb trees? They don’t think to check for wires when they do it, and if there’s an overgrown limb or branch that is touching a power line, that child could be in serious danger. Regular tree trimming can help keep the kids in your community a little bit safer.
Because of these dangers, it is not recommended that you do the tree trimming yourself – especially if the trees are near live power lines. Our professionals know how far away from a power line tree limbs and branches should be, and we have the training and tools necessary to do the tree trimming safely.
But it’s not just power lines you should be concerned with when thinking about tree trimming – this service can also help prevents accidents to motorists and pedestrians. When a tree branch becomes weak, it has the potential to break off and fall, possibly on someone unlucky enough to be walking underneath it at that particular moment or someone driving by. Plus, when there is a bad storm in our area, the weight of the water or even a strong wind can cause a weak tree to break, which could also pose a danger to your home.
And, of course, regular tree trimming simply helps your yard look nice. Your home is your castle, and if a tree or shrub becomes overgrown, it can give visitors a bad first impression – before they even walk in the door! And if you are trying to sell your home, keeping your trees well maintained can increase the value of your home and make it more attractive to potential buyers.
