Those majestic old trees on your property have been growing just fine on their own for decades or even longer, so why do you need a tree service? Trees will perform self-maintenance if left to their own devices in a wooded environment, but the coexistence of trees and people in cities and residential areas requires human intervention to ensure safety and prevent damage to homes, landscaping and the tree itself. For a harmonious existence between you and your trees, turn to the Dallas lawn care and tree care specialists at ABC Home & Commercial Services.Benefits to Your Home and Lawn
Overgrown trees may need pruning for several reasons, such as providing clearance for power lines, buildings, homes or people. Trees may also need to be thinned at the crown to increase the amount of sunlight and air that reaches the foliage, encouraging optimal growth. Thinning additionally helps shed more sunlight on the landscaping below the tree. One of the most common pruning techniques, cleaning, is used to remove diseased or dead branches from the tree to prevent them from falling onto a person, car, house or other structure during a storm. Exposed tree roots are another issue that can be addressed to restore the health and beauty of your landscaping.Benefits to the Tree
While improper pruning can negatively affect the growth of the tree and even shorten its life, proper pruning promotes ideal tree health. Young trees that are maintained by tree care professionals will grow into strong, mature trees that hold the proper shape with very little maintenance. Mature trees that are routinely removed of damaged and dead branches and thinned to allow for good sun filtration and wind penetration will live a long and healthy life.
