Even though the storms, winds, and snowfall of fall and winter are still a long way off, summer is the best time to get your trees ready to face these obstacles, and many homeowners should consider tree trimming. Liscombe Tree Service, located out of St. Charles, specializes in tree trimming, stump grinding, tree removal and pruning. We also offer emergency services in case a tree poses a threat or cracks unexpectedly.

We’ve provided some insight into why people should start prepping for more severe storms during the summertime.

• Damaged Branches: Tree trimming and pruning all areas of the tree, right up into the canopy, can be beneficial for many reasons. If heavy winds come through, the branches are less likely to break off and cause damage. Having someone like us come out in the summer will allow us to determine which branches are dead and weak and could cause you issues later on in the year.
• Roots: Summer is a great time to examine the roots around your trees, since there isn’t snow covering them. If the roots are largely exposed, it could be a sign of your trees weakness, and one that indicates it could topple. Allowing our experts to evaluate the area will help to determine whether or not the tree should be removed.
• Obstruction: If your tree branches are resting on your roof, tree trimming becomes crucial. If left alone during a storm, those branches could be tossed around and cause damage to your roof. Our tree trimming services can keep them at bay will help save you time and money.

Don’t wait for the bad weather months and something to happen before considering what you need to do with your trees. They can pose a hazard—one that can be detected and prevented early on. Consider hiring a tree trimming service for annual inspections in order to prevent any damage and get rid of any dangerous trees.
