What Type of Tree Service Do I Need?

Your tree care needs will vary based on seasonality, the types of trees in your yard, the age and size of your trees and the number of trees on your property. The climate in Merced, Los Banos and Atwater, as well as the location of your trees in relation to buildings and hardscape features will also help determine what options are available to you.

Tree Trimming

Older trees require regular maintenance or corrective trimming for optimal health. There are several methods of trimming commonly used for mature trees:

Tree Pruning

Younger trees require careful pruning. Pruning encourages new growth which helps keep the tree lush, healthy, and well-shaped. When pruning is introduced to a young tree it will improve the overall form and eliminate the need for heavy trimming as the tree ages. Hiring a tree company in Merced County with a flair for artistic pruning may not be high your wish list, but it often goes hand in hand with a high quality service professional who takes pride in their work and does what is necessary to improve the aesthetics of your property.

General Ongoing Tree Care

Scheduling quarterly, semi-annual or monthly tree service will allow you to enjoy beautiful trees year round. If you have several species requiring multiple types of care a planned maintenance schedule will ensure shaping, pruning, disease detection and more are each done at appropriate times. Regular tree care services also include disease monitoring, treatment of tree diseases, and storm bracing.

Emergency Tree Service in Merced County

Professional tree companies offer emergency service for those times when tree or limb removal just cannot wait. If a large limb or a tree has fallen on your home or car, or if a precariously balanced branch is hanging over a walkway, you should request emergency tree services. Keep in mind that emergency tree care will cost more than regular maintenance, particularly if you are requesting same or next-day service. Finding a tree care company in Merced, Los Banos and Atwater to address hazards right after a storm can be difficult due to the amount of downed trees and subsequent service requests received. Emergency service is usually charged at a premium of 1.5x to 3.5x more than regular rates.

Questions to Ask Your Tree Service Company

Should I Have My Tree Topped?

Topping a tree is an aggressive technique and can significantly damage your tree so it is only to be used when a tree is encroaching on a building or other structure that may cause damage.

Will You Remove the Debris from Pruning and Trimming?

Yes! Aptera tree service companies in Merced County will remove all debris from trimming or pruning.

Can You Mulch the Limbs for Me?

Most of our partners have access to large chipper machines and for a small fee will mulch the limbs for you. Just be sure to make the request when scheduling.

Will Your Equipment Damage My Lawn?

Although the utmost care will be used, tree trimming equipment needed for trees above 15 feet is heavy and have the ability to damage landscaping or smaller plants.

*Always alert tree service professionals to the location of any irrigation systems and other hidden areas of concern.

Do You Use Climbing Spikes?

Climbing spikes can damage a tree and should not be used for trimming a living tree whenever necessary.

When Should Trimming Be Done?

Most trees can be trimmed anytime outside of an active bloom. The best time for trimming deciduous trees is just prior to budding.

Are You Insured?
