We offer a variety of tree care services in the Franklin area.
Trees are vital components of our ecosystem, providing several advantages like shade, oxygen production, and aesthetic appeal. Maintaining these advantages requires proper tree care, which is more difficult than it may seem. The truth is that if you’re a homeowner or business owner in the Franklin, Tennessee area, there may come a time when you need professional tree services, and knowing who to turn to is key. The good news is that our team at My Tree Guy is ready and willing to help with your needs.
Tree care requires more than just knowledge of how to cut down trees. You’ll find our team has a thorough understanding of various tree species, their development patterns, and their unique requirements. This knowledge allows us to correctly identify problems like illnesses and pest infestations to ensure your trees get the appropriate care. In fact, there may be times when trees can be saved rather than cut down if they get the right care.
We also have the right tools to handle a variety of tree care tasks, from branch removal to trimming to stump grinding and more. Plus, we’ll take the time to fully assess the situation and create a plan that is safe for our team and your property, which gives you added peace of mind. Of course, we’re also insured if mishaps do occur, and we’ll remove all debris once we’re finished to ensure your property’s safety. Additionally, we see our fair share of storms in the Franklin area. This is why we also offer prompt tree care after a storm.
Well-kept trees can raise the aesthetic appeal and monetary value of your home. For business owners, they can help you make a great first impression and improve the pride your workers have about working for your company. In both situations, a reliable and hard-working tree care team is needed. Contact us today to learn more.
Trimming your trees is a crucial part of tree care to ensure their longevity. Our team is knowledgeable about the invasive species that can affect trees in the Franklin area, and we are the team to call for your tree care needs.
Why Is Trimming Your Trees Important?
When there is too much going on (too many branches in a condensed space), that’s when a tree can begin to deteriorate. Energy is being sucked up from the base of the tree and dispersed throughout. When that energy has to go through too many branches, you begin seeing deadwood and problems occur. We need to promote more energy up the tree and to the branches that need it by trimming out the excess. This will make your tree healthier, therefore allowing it to live longer. Plus, it will make it safer and less susceptible to falling by allowing wind to pass through it. That’s why it is very important to trim your trees every four years.
The natural way to help revitalize a tree is to trim it. We want to promote more energy to the top and to the branches that need it.
