Weathering the Storm Expert Tips for Summer Tree Preparedness

As the warm embrace of summer approaches Kansas City, so too does the possibility of severe storms that can wreak havoc on your trees. Protecting your trees from summer storms is paramount to safeguarding your property and ensuring the safety of your loved ones. In this guide, we'll delve into the critical steps you can take to prepare your trees for the upcoming Kansas City summer storms while emphasizing the importance of seeking professional tree services for comprehensive care.

  1. Trim and Prune: Kickstart your summer tree preparedness by scheduling a professional trimming and pruning session. Our expert arbor consultants will meticulously remove any dead, damaged, or overhanging branches that pose a risk during high winds. By improving the tree's structural integrity, pruning not only reduces the likelihood of storm-related damage but also enhances its overall health and longevity.

  2. Check for Disease and Decay: Our arbor consultants will conduct a thorough inspection of your trees to identify any signs of disease, decay, or structural weaknesses. From hollowed-out trunks to fungal growths and bark cracks, our trained eyes can detect early warning signs that could escalate during summer storms. Addressing these issues promptly with professional tree care ensures your trees are fortified against potential storm damage.tree_on_housej
