Signs Your Trees Need Professional Care
Trees often show subtle signs of stress or disease long before problems become obvious. Recognizing these early warning signs allows for timely intervention that can save trees and prevent costly removal.
Watch for changes in leaf color, size, or timing of leaf emergence and fall. Premature leaf drop, sparse canopy, or dead branches indicate stress or disease. Unusual growths, cankers, or wounds on the trunk or branches may signal infection or structural problems. Visible pests, holes in bark, or sawdust around the base suggest insect infestation.
If you notice any concerning changes in your trees, contact our team for a professional assessment. Early intervention is often the difference between saving a tree and losing it. We combine our health services with expert pruning and arborist consulting to provide complete tree care solutions.
Seasonal Tree Care in Santa Monica
Trees have different needs throughout the year, and our maintenance programs adapt to seasonal changes. Spring is ideal for fertilization and pest prevention as trees begin active growth. Summer requires attention to water stress and heat damage. Fall is the time for soil amendments and preparation for winter dormancy. Winter allows for structural pruning and planning for the coming year. Our year-round maintenance programs ensure your trees receive the right care at the right time.
