An Ounce of Prevention Keeps Trees Healthy AND Saves You Money
/
A small investment of time and money now benefits long-term – saving you time, stress, and money.
You know the old saying, “An ounce of prevention…”? Or, maybe, “An apple a day…”? These oh-so-familiar statements can apply to so many areas of our lives, including how we maintain the surroundings of our homes.
And there are so many things we put off for another time – when we’re less busy when we have time off, the next nice day. But, as with other essential yet inconvenient activities – going to the dentist, for example – ignoring the signs can pose a serious risk. And quite likely be more expensive if left untreated.
So, rather than letting the condition of your trees, or the state of your teeth, for that matter, linger on your mind, why not take action? Clear the cobwebs of procrastination and take that first step.
Your trees and your peace of mind will thank you.

Save your money for your dental work – not your trees
We understand how maintaining your trees may not be your first priority. Unlike dental work, you probably won't experience any nagging pain. However, if you don't maintain your trees regularly or if you don't manage problematic trees, they may pose a risk to your home or property. Or worse, someone’s safety.
Like a dead tooth, dead trees are unsightly. However, a dead tooth can't come down on your home in one of our Valley storms. Let's dig in a little deeper – read on for how your tree management isn't something that should go ignored.
Prevention vs procrastination – SAVES MONEY!
If you leave all of your tree work for some day in the future – the hedge trimming, dead tree removal, view clearing, etc. – you can probably imagine the cost in time and labour.
Overgrown hedges now seem an overwhelming task to trim back safely without harming your shrubs. The dead trees, including the one that hangs over the fence, now pose a danger to not only your yard but that of the neighbour. Unwieldy branches now block your beautiful view of the mountains.
When you wait, procrastinating to do the vital work of managing and maintaining the trees and hedges on your property, the work adds up. And so do the costs.
On the other hand, regular maintenance helps to distribute costs over time and prevents any risk of much greater expenses in the event of damage caused by dead or unhealthy trees.
NEVER ignore dead trees
Dead trees can pose a hazard during and after storms. So weakened are their structures due to a lack of moisture and nutrients that they are prone to breaking.
If you have a dead tree in your yard, it needs removal as soon as possible. And, it's more than just about the potential costs if that tree, or its branches, falls onto your home or one of the structures on your property. Dead trees can also:
Damage to your home, but more catastrophic, could cause injury or worse to someone inside.
Be at greater risk for broken branches. If a passerby gets injured by a falling branch of a tree on your property, you can be held responsible for any related expenses.
Damage to power lines resulting in a power outage for you and your neighbours, putting people at risk..
Call a professional tree service to remove any dead trees efficiently and safely, saving you money and potential heartbreak.
Tree work requires precision
Now that you've taken that crucial first step of managing your trees and shrubs, you don't want to do something that might harm or even kill them. As with dentistry, tree work is exact. And should be left to the professionals.
You don't want to make mistakes when it comes to your trees. And it's easy to do! On the other hand, a professional tree service can help you gauge the health of your trees, identify problems, and how they might be treated.
When it comes to tree removal, an arborist can take down problem branches or even the tree itself without danger to a neighbouring property or your own.
An ounce of prevention now…
Can save you a lot of time, money, and even heartache later. We know you want to spend money on your trees about as much as you want to spend money at the dentist.
But, when you take a maintenance mindset, being proactive saves you time, money, and stress. When you hire a professional tree service, you enjoy the peace of mind knowing you have lovingly cared for the beautiful trees that bring you so much joy. And most importantly, you know your trees are healthy and safe.
