Whether you have a large yard or a small garden, nothing makes the space more comfortable and beautiful than well-cared-for trees. Not only do they improve your landscape’s aesthetics, but they also can save you money on cooling costs during the summer, give kids a place to relax on a warm afternoon, and add shade for birds and wildlife. When properly cared for by a tree service, trees can even add value to your property. Here’s how.

Increases Home Energy Efficiency

The more shade your house receives during the summer, the less the HVAC system has to work and the more money you’ll save on cooling costs. Prospective buyers are almost always looking for homes that will save them money in the long run. Since shade trees do this without forcing the buyer to invest in energy-efficient technology and appliances, it makes the property more valuable and attractive on the market.

Makes the Landscaping More Interesting

Flowerbeds add pops of color, but they’re often high-maintenance and some buyers may not be interested in purchasing a home with a yard that requires a ton of work. Trees, on the other hand, are relatively low-maintenance and only need to be tended to by a tree service once or twice a year. 

They’re a Long-Term Investment

Many plants commonly used in residential landscaping only last for one or two seasons before they have to be replanted. With the supervision of an arborist from a local tree service, trees will last for many years and continue to provide the property with shade, draw nutrients up through the soil, and help the rest of your yard thrive.
