Pullman Tree Care: Trimming Vs. Removal

As a homeowner, taking care of the trees on your property is an important responsibility. This responsibility includes determining whether a tree needs to be trimmed or removed and there are a wide variety of situations that can call for either Pullman tree care service. That’s why Westcoast Tree Care would like to provide you with the following reasons trimming or removing a tree may be the better choice. ​

Tree Trimming

Regular trimming is important to ensure a tree grows healthy. Trimming can also be utilized to facilitate the growth of a tree as well as to remove dead or diseased areas that may be compromising its integrity. Trimming also reduces the risk of property damage when branches or limbs touch or rub against nearby structures. Last but not least, trimming improves the aesthetics of your property boosting the curb appeal of your home.

Trimming is often the best choice if a tree is healthy enough and doesn’t pose a dangerous threat to people or property below. Periodic trimming can even help a tree to grow healthier and bloom to its full potential. ​

Tree Removal

Unfortunately, there are a wide variety of situations that may warrant the removal of a tree. For example, if a tree is dead or dying, it’s often important to remove it to prevent it from causing damage to nearby structures. A tree should also be removed if it is posing a hazardous safety risk. An insect-infested tree should also be removed before it spreads to other nearby healthy trees.

Keep in mind that tree removal is often considered a last resort option. When conservative options like trimming or windsail reduction aren’t applicable anymore, it’s often best to remove it in the safest way possible. Furthermore, when a tree is removed, great care must be taken by a certified arborist to remove the trunk, branches, roots, and stump.
