Tree Maintenance Prevents Disasters and Adds Value to Your Property

Regular tree trimming services are essential to maintain the health, safety, and appearance of your trees. Overgrown limbs can cause various problems, such as brushing against your roof, inviting rodents, or damaging shingles. Elevating branches improves clearance for better views and allows more sunlight to reach your lawn. Removing dead wood and weak limbs reduces potential hazards, especially during storms. Additionally, thinning the canopy enhances airflow, making trees less likely to topple in high winds. None of that is our own invention — it is how the ISA says mature trees should be pruned.

One thing we will not touch is a limb in a power line. MLGW’s own crews clear the distribution lines on a three-year cycle, and their page sets out the clearances they work to. The drop running to your house is a different thing again — they will trim around it, but they will not take a tree out for it. If a job of ours needs the drop dealt with first, we tell you so before we schedule.

A lot of the trimming we do is on limbs that hang over somebody else’s side of the line, which raises a question we are asked constantly — whether you may cut a neighbor’s tree that overhangs your yard. If the tree turns out to be too far gone to trim, that becomes tree removal instead, and we will tell you which one you are looking at before you pay for either.
