Pest control – Trees are home to insects and pests, which if left unchecked, can cause serious damage to other plants in your garden and further damage to the tree itself. Such insects eat off the surrounding foliage and spread diseases amongst other plants, weakening them and causing branches to fall off. Tree trimming helps to prevent the spread of diseases by removing the infected branch.
Healthy growth – Tree topping improves the health and strength of a tree and adequate maintenance will ensure that it retains a good shape.
Protection – In addition to protecting your trees and plants it is equally important to safeguard your property. Tree topping helps remove dead and diseased branches that could pose a threat to your home and property. By regularly topping or trimming your trees, vines and climbing plants that are close to your home, you can protect your home from damage caused by rubbing branches and falling debris.
In addition to the above points, tree topping also reduces shading, wind loading, and provides clearance between structures and foliage.
