Just like you trim your garden plants and grass throughout the year as part of your landscaping and property maintenance, your trees need trimming too! Tree branches in your yard that are not properly and promptly trimmed can create a huge problem if they grow near telephone wires, over your roof, or cover other parts of your yard that need sunlight for healthy growth. Clayton’s Tree Service provides one-time or regularly scheduled professional tree trimming services to keep your home and family safe. 

Is Tree Trimming Really Necessary?

Trees are trimmed for a variety of reasons, including aesthetics, safety, and for the health of the tree itself. On a basic level, a properly trimmed and pruned tree looks nicer than an overgrown or sloppily trimmed tree. Perhaps the most important reason to have your trees trimmed is for safety. Dead or damaged branches or tree limbs could fall off during the next downpour or during the next sunny day—and that’s why they are so dangerous. The unpredictability of broken tree limbs is exactly why you should not put off getting them trimmed. All it takes is a gust of wind for a tree limb to end up causing major damage to your roof or yard.

If you want your trees to be around for a long time, it’s important to trim away any dead, damaged, or diseased branches as regularly as possible. This helps stop any bugs or disease-carrying insects from getting into the tree and causing further damage.
