Late April and May bring spring thunderstorms to South Jersey. High winds, heavy rain, and occasional hail can cause real damage to trees that aren't in peak condition. If you've noticed weak branches, dead wood, or trees that look stressed since winter, now is the time to address it.
We recommend a pre-storm season pruning to remove dead wood, weak branch unions, and branches that hang over structures or power lines. It's not dramatic, but it's effective. A tree that's been properly pruned sheds wind better, sheds water better, and is significantly less likely to drop a branch during a storm.
If a tree is obviously hazardous or beyond help, removal is the safer choice. But most trees can be strengthened and made safer with professional pruning. Greg works with property owners and insurance companies to make the best decision for each tree and property.
Are there any trees on your property that you're keeping an eye on before storm season? #TreeCare #SouthJersey
