Importance of Timely Tree Removal
Tree cutting is a complex task that requires the expertise of professionals. Hiring an experienced arborist who can assess the tree's condition and determine the best action is very important. Several reasons a tree might need removal include disease, damage, overgrowth, and proximity to structures. When trees grow too close to a house, they can cause damage to the roof or walls and even lead to foundation problems. Trees that are too close to power lines can also be a significant hazard, as they can cause power outages or even electrical fires.
Trees that are infected with diseases or infested with insects can weaken and become hazardous to people and property. Similarly, trees damaged by storms or other natural disasters can significantly pose a risk and must be removed immediately.
Our Expert Tree Removal Process
The tree cutting process typically involves cutting the tree down in sections with chainsaws, starting at the top and working down. This is done to prevent damage to surrounding property and ensure the safety of our crew and others in close proximity. Once the tree is down, we remove the stump and any remaining debris, leaving the site clean and free of hazards. We're able to grind down every tree we cut with our wood chipper! For larger jobs, we have heavy-duty cranes and pulleys to hoist trees away quickly. Some jobs may require a crane to remove massive trees more efficiently.
Never Settle for Cheap Tree Removal
It should be of no surprise that tree removal is extremely dangerous and should only be attempted by licensed and insured professionals. All of our arborists are trained in the proper techniques and have the necessary equipment to remove trees safely and efficiently. Removing a tree yourself can result in injury or damage to your property, so it's best to leave it to the experts, and avoid unnecessary medical bills. Never settle for an estimate just because its the lowest bid. You run the risk of further damage to your property and may be held liable if they're not insured and don't have the proper licensing. Rest assured, Victoria Tree Masters has all the necessary licensing to get the job done right. We work hard to deliver the best tree removal possible, leaving your property completely free of debris!
How often should I prune my trees?
It depends on the age of your tree. Newly-planted trees should not be pruned for the first 2-3 years.
After that, young trees should be pruned every 2 to 3 years, while mature trees will need to be pruned every 3 to 5 years.
Additional pruning may be done on an as-needed basis.
How will I know if my tree should be pruned?
Many times, you'll be able to see that tree pruning or trimming would be beneficial.
For example, branches may be hitting your roof or blocking a walkway, or you may notice dead or broken branches.
We have an article full of questions to ask before trimming a tree that can help you determine what steps to take.
Plus, you can always contact us for a tree consultation.
What are the benefits of properly pruning my trees?
Properly pruning your trees provides many benefits. It helps your trees live a longer and healthier life and helps trees that are still growing to develop good branch structure.
Your property value and curb appeal also increase with properly pruned and maintained trees.
Can I trim or prune my trees myself?
We don't recommend it. Between the heights involved and the dangerous equipment, the chance of injury (or worse!) is high.
Our tree professionals are thoroughly trained in safety procedures for tree care services.
We’re happy to answer any questions you may have and our experienced estimators will be able to walk you through how the job will be done and what it will take to do it right. You may be surprised by just how affordable quality tree work can be especially when you compare it to doing it yourself!
Do you top trees?
We do not top trees. This practice of cutting off the top of trees is detrimental to the tree, ends up costing the homeowner more, and is not considered good practice in the professional tree care industry.
Can my trees be pruned in winter?
Yes! With most trees dormant during the winter months, it is an ideal time to prune.
The lack of leaves on deciduous trees allows us to more clearly view the tree's structure, the frozen ground leads to less damage to your lawn, and most pests and diseases aren't active, so your tree is safe from infestations.
When is the best time to prune a tree?
There are different times to prune different trees, for example, most flowering trees should be pruned after they bloom, and Maples can be pruned most times of the year. It is best to discuss pruning with the estimator because every tree is unique in its placement on your property and it’s condition.
My tree is near power lines. Can you still prune it?
If a tree or limb is touching a power line, call us so we can evaluate whether it should be removed. If a limb has fallen onto a line, call us to remove it. For safety, do not attempt to remove any trees or tree limbs from power lines yourself!
