With summer around the corner, it’s time to start thinking about how to prepare for monsoon season, and scheduling a tree trimming is one of the best ways to keep your family, home, and trees safe.
New Heights Tree Service is a family-owned and operated company with nearly two decades of experience in tree service. New Heights maintains the health of its clients’ trees — from minor residential needs to large community properties and more.
To prepare for monsoon season, owner Joe Alsworth recommends that your trees are trimmed at least once per year to prevent trees from falling on your property or being damaged beyond saving.
“If your trees have not been trimmed in a year, or if it’s been a year, we always recommend it’s a good time to have your trees evaluated and trimmed before monsoon season. In our area, in Northeast Mesa, we got over 70 mile per hour winds last summer,” he said. “A 30 to 40 mile per hour wind gust is enough to damage a tree, so when it’s over it becomes a serious issue.”
Trees that aren’t trimmed are more likely to fall on your home, car or other area of your property, causing costly damages while also permanently damaging the tree.
“Usually when a tree is blown over the root is exposed, which damages the root system. Some of those trees can be brought back into an upright position, but usually they don’t survive long,” said Joe. “A tree cannot survive any root damage.”
Joe and his son Matt are passionate about taking care of trees and do each job themselves, instead of hiring the work out, to ensure high customer service and quality work.
While many general landscaping companies also offer tree trimming or removal services, many teams lack the knowledge to ensure they are trimming the trees correctly, potentially leading to permanent damage that a tree cannot survive.
New Heights Tree Service brings in-depth knowledge on every type of tree and focuses on the long-term health of the tree, not just how it looks. This protects your home and landscaping investment and prevents the need to remove badly cared for trees.
According to Joe, up to 15 percent of a home’s value can come from its trees, meaning a poor trim service can have a major, negative impact on your home investment.
