Tree care isn’t something you should try on your own. A professional arborist knows how best to take care of your trees based on how they are growing, what issues they may be facing, and more. If you’re wondering whether or not you need to reach out to an arborist, here are a few reasons to give one a call.
- Branches are too close to your home. Trees are beautiful landscaping features, but they can be too close to structures on your property. When branches are too close to anything on your property, you should reach out to an arborist to evaluate the situation and determine whether or not branch removal is necessary.
- There are cracks or other visible damages. It’s easier to notice structural or physical damages to your trees when the weather is cooler and that aren’t a lot of leaves blocking your view. If you’re looking at your tree and you notice cracks, splits, or anything else out of the ordinary, call an arborist. They know what damages are cause for concern and what isn’t an issue.
- You think your tree is sick. Trees can get sick, and while some indicators are easier to spot in warmer months, you can still notice signs of something wrong when temperatures are colder. Pay attention to any holes or strange patches along your tree that could indicate it is sick.
