Do you need emergency tree trimming? It doesn’t seem like something you should think about, but it’s more common than you might think. With the number of mature trees in Georgia, tree trimming isn’t always a planned event. Unfortunately, sometimes, you need to call in for emergency service. Here’s how to tell if emergency tree trimming is in your future.
You’ve Got a Leaner
Even the sturdiest trees can break down over time, whether from disease, structural issues, or the weather. If you notice one of your trees is leaning, it is time to call for emergency tree trimming or removal. Why would it be an emergency? Out in the forest, a leaning tree is no big deal. In your backyard, it can be a real hazard. If it’s suddenly leaning, it has an issue. You don’t want to risk it falling on your home, landscaping, or someone else.
Too Close for Comfort
Do you have large trees that come close to power lines, telephone lines, or the roof of your home? When branches get too close for comfort, trimming is necessary. It becomes an emergency when rapid growth occurs under favorable environmental conditions, or when the tree or its branches shift due to wind or weather. Before you risk a branch or a tree pulling down wires or damaging your gutters or roof, call a tree service for trimming or removal.
Could Be the Weather
The South is no stranger to extreme summer weather, which can take a toll on your trees. Things to look out for include high winds that break branches or uproot trees, heavy rain or flooding that can cause trees to lose their footing, or drought that can lead to dry, dead trees and branches. When any or all of these summer weather conditions exist, it can leave you with trees that need trimming. If you discover loose branches, uprooted trees, or trees with damage, a reputable tree service company can assess the damage and do some emergency trimming.
No Longer Among the Living
If your trees are old, damaged, or affected by disease, pests, or fungus, they might need a trim. When you have dead branches, it may not seem like an emergency, and it might not be. However, if a storm blows through and you have dead branches or trees, the wind could cause them to come loose, damage your property, or even cause injury.
