The Short Answer: Yes!

As the weather starts warming up again, many of us are breaking out our grass-stained shoes and firing up our lawn equipment for another beautiful, green spring and summer in Roswell. With leaves back on the trees and the grass back to its beautiful green color, it’s time for some yard work. You may have a checklist of things to do around the yard—mow the lawn, trim the bushes; but have you thought about taking care of your yard’s trees? As specialists on this topic, our tree service professionals are here to answer the question on everyone’s mind: Do I need to trim my trees?

Top Ways Tree Trimming Will Benefit You

Prevent Damage

Springtime and summertime in Roswell are two seasons known for heavy rain and storms. Trees are one of the biggest victims of this time of year. Compromised or dead trees might cause damage this time of year due to heavy winds or excess rain that will soften the ground, but overgrown trees can also be a problem. Nature seems to have its natural way of trimming and pruning, but that may come at the expense of your gutter system, a window, or other parts of your property as broken branches fall and cause damage. A professional tree service will remove any compromised branches, saving your home from damage and an unpleasant day of yardwork in the case that large branches were to fall on your property.

Curb Appeal

Summer is the best time of year to sell a home. Any expert will tell you that curb appeal is one of the bigger factors in selling a home. A freshly painted exterior, pressure washed driveway, lush lawn—all these things are great, but don’t overlook the importance of trimming back your trees. Not only will overgrown trees look unappealing to a potential homebuyer, but they also might be a red flag. Most buyers on the market don’t want a property that will be a nightmare to maintain and clean up. Give your home a fresh and welcoming appearance by trimming your trees before listing your property on the market.

Tree Health

While trimming undoubtedly improves the look of a tree and its yard, there are also health benefits to this. A professional tree trimming company will accurately identify branches that are diseased or dead; removing these branches will help prevent further decay or damage to the tree. Increased airflow will help minimize leaf decay in the upper portion of your tree.

Tree trimming is also good for the rest of your lawn—in Georgia, most of us have Bermuda grass; this is a grass type that thrives in sunlight, so taking away a few branches may help your lawn thicken up.
