What To Do If Your Tree Branches Are Hanging Over Your Property
Trees are beautiful assets to your property. They are good for the air we breathe, they make our yards look picturesque, and they add value to your property. Many of these trees grow tall. Their branches can overhang our homes, garages, and cars. Uh oh, that might not be good right? Tree branches could fall and hurt my property?
Any limb hanging over a house, structure, or car is a risk. Here are some reasons why overhanging branches are trouble:
- Branches that scrape on roof shingles can strip layers of asphalt off.
- Leaves will drop in the gutter and can cause leaks, deterioration, and mold.
- A limb can break and fall onto your home and break the roof, windows, or severely hurt someone.
To avoid a tree hanging over your house or building, you should never plant a tree too close to your property. If there’s already a tree too close or overhanging, you’ll need to trim the tree back. If you need to trim limbs over your roof, it’s a good idea to leave it to the professionals. If you can’t grab or catch the limb, you will let it fall onto your roof after you cut it, which will do damage. Your roof is likely high, and professionals have the proper equipment and safety gear to cut branches from that height. Tree professionals know how to remove tree limbs over a home or car without doing any damage to your property.
Whether there’s a strong wind, a hurricane, or the tree gets a disease, there’s several ways and reasons why a branch can drop onto your house. Don’t wait for the inevitable. Call a tree specialist out to your property today to take a look at your overhanging trees.
