Common Tree Care Questions

A:Tree removal is actually our last resort. Often, a certified arborist is able to save a tree that a property owner thought couldn’t be saved. However, there are times when tree removal is necessary. A tree should be removed when the tree is structurally unsound, which can create a safety risk for people and property.

A:An arborist is an expert with extensive training in the art and science of caring for trees. An arborist can help you with everything from choosing the right trees and plants for your property to treating diseases and helping you determine when to remove a dead tree. At Abundant Tree Care Services, you will work with an International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) certified arborist to help you make important decisions regarding the care of your trees.

A:Tree pruning helps the health, well-being, and appearance of your trees. However, improper tree pruning can weaken the structure of the tree. The right timing, methods, and best practices for a tree depends on the species and the health of the tree. If your trees need some attention, we can advise you about pruning and ensure that your trees are pruned correctly for optimal growth and health.

A:When a tree is sick or damaged, you may wonder whether to attempt to save it or just have it removed. There are many benefits to saving your trees. Removing your trees and replacing them with smaller ones will reduce the amount of shade in your yard, which can be a problem since shade from trees helps to keep your home comfortable and reduce energy costs. In addition, trees offer benefits for reducing air pollution, absorbing storm water, reducing soil erosion, and providing a home for small local wildlife.
