As the weather starts to shift and the threat of seasonal storms looms on the horizon, it's essential to prepare your property for potential damage. Trees, in particular, can pose a significant risk during high winds and heavy rainfall. That's where Fransen's Tree Service comes in. Our team of expert arborists is here to provide you with some valuable tips on how to manage your trees and ensure their safety during storm season.

First and foremost, regular tree maintenance is key to storm preparedness. Keeping your trees healthy and well-maintained can help prevent them from becoming hazardous during extreme weather conditions. Fransen's Tree Service offers a range of services, including tree trimming, pruning, and removal, to keep your trees in top condition.

Another important tip is to pay attention to the warning signs of potential tree hazards. Are there dead or decaying branches? Leaning trees? Cracks in the trunk? These are all indicators that a tree may be at risk of falling during a storm. If you notice any of these warning signs on your property, don't hesitate to contact Fransen's Tree Service for a professional assessment.

In addition to regular maintenance and monitoring, it's also crucial to have a plan in place for emergency tree care. In the event of a severe storm, knowing who to call for help can make all the difference in minimizing damage to your property. Fransen's Tree Service offers 24/7 emergency tree removal services to address any urgent tree-related issues that may arise.

Furthermore, proper tree selection and placement can also play a significant role in storm preparedness. Some tree species are more prone to storm damage than others, so it's essential to choose trees that are well-suited to your region's climate and soil conditions. Our team at Fransen's Tree Service can provide expert advice on the best tree species to plant on your property and where to plant them for maximum safety.

Lastly, don't forget to secure any outdoor furniture, decorations, or other items that could become projectiles in high winds. Clearing your yard of potential hazards can help prevent damage to your trees and mitigate the risk of property damage during a storm.
