Tree Care Services For Your Property

Preventive Tree Maintenance In Delaware County
Waiting for a limb to break or a storm to cause damage often leads to higher costs and stress. Regular tree maintenance helps prevent these emergencies by allowing our crew to identify issues early and keep your trees healthy over time.
During routine visits, we consider Delaware County’s weather challenges, such as heavy rain softening soil, strong winds, and winter ice, and look for warning signs like:
- Dead or weak branches high in the canopy
- Cracks at limb-to-trunk joints
- Soil shifts around roots
Based on our assessment, we may recommend selective pruning, removal of hazardous limbs, or ongoing monitoring. This proactive approach reduces emergency calls, protects structures and vehicles, and improves your landscape’s appearance with stronger, well-balanced tree canopies.
A good preventive plan often includes:
- Regular visual inspections from the ground to spot changes in bark, branches, or canopy shape
- Periodic pruning to remove dead or weakened limbs before they fail
- Attention to trees that overhang homes, parking areas, sidewalks, or play spaces
- Follow up after major storms to check for new cracks, splits, or leaning
Our team works with each client to decide how often maintenance makes sense based on the number of trees, their age, and their proximity to structures. By setting a schedule that fits your property, you can feel more confident that potential problems are not being overlooked.
When To Call Our Tree Contractors
Many homeowners are often unsure when it’s time to call a professional tree service. You might notice something unusual—a branch that seems weak, a tree leaning slightly, or signs of decay—but it can be difficult to judge the urgency from the ground. Even minor issues can develop into safety hazards if left unchecked, especially during storms or periods of heavy wind and ice. Having a trained eye evaluate the situation can provide peace of mind, ensure safety, and help you make informed decisions about preserving the health and appearance of your trees.
Common warning signs to watch for include:
- Large dead branches caught in the canopy
- Mushrooms or soft wood at the base of the trunk
- Leaning trees or splitting limbs
- Branches rubbing against roofs, blocking sightlines, or near power lines
If you are worried about a tree, consider these steps:
- Keep people, vehicles, and pets away from areas beneath large dead or cracked limbs
- Take photos of what concerns you, such as splits or leaning, so you can describe it when you call
- Contact our team and let us know if you believe the issue could be urgent, such as a branch hanging over an entryway
- During our visit, walk the property with us so we can point out what we see and discuss options
Frequently Asked Questions
How Do I Know If A Tree Is Unsafe?
You can often spot unsafe trees by looking for warning signs. If any of these appear, it’s best to have a professional assessment:
- Large dead or broken branches
- Deep cracks or splits in the trunk
- Mushrooms or fungus near the roots
- Leaning trees or shifting roots
Our team will evaluate the tree’s condition on site, explain the risks, and provide clear options for pruning, maintenance, or removal.

During an inspection, our crew carefully examines your trees and property to assess health, structure, and potential hazards. You can expect:

- Identification of visible issues and potential risks
- Clear explanation of findings and recommended options

This process ensures you have the information needed to make safe, informed decisions.
