How Commercial Properties & HOAs Can Prepare Trees for Hurricane Season

Hurricane season is a major issue for residents of Bradenton, Florida, and beyond. As a commercial property owner or member of an HOA community, you may be particularly concerned about what tropical storms can do to your trees. Every year, strong winds and heavy rains place enough stress on trees to produce significant damage, including fallen branches that block roadways and create safety hazards and the destruction of property. That’s why it’s so important to take a proactive approach by turning to a professional team such as Terry’s Tree Service for commercial tree hurricane preparation.

Tree Assessments

One of the first steps to take as part of the hurricane preparation process is to have the trees on your property assessed by a commercial tree service. The Certified Arborists at Terry’s Tree Service can quickly identify dead limbs, structural vulnerabilities, areas of decay, damaged branches, and other hazards that aren’t visible from the ground level.

Having a tree assessment conducted is an essential part of hurricane prep for HOAs that may have a large number of trees near common areas such as streets and sidewalks. Furthermore, commercial property owners with trees near parking areas, buildings, and walkways should also invest in a precautionary assessment.

Dead Limb Removal

Dead branches are a major hazard during severe thunderstorms and hurricanes. The strong winds that come along with these storms can easily cause weak branches to break off and crash onto vehicles, roofs, power lines, and other key parts of your property. They can also be extremely dangerous for people or animals walking beneath them at the wrong time.

Our commercial and HOA tree trimming services remove hazardous limbs while focusing on maintaining the overall health and stability of the tree. Rather than cutting branches indiscriminately, our experienced team uses professional pruning techniques that preserve the structure of the tree and help protect it long-term.

Bracing & Cabling

In certain situations, bracing or cabling is the best approach to dealing with a tree’s structural issues prior to hurricane season. This technique enables us to address structural vulnerabilities without having to remove a tree entirely. Bracing and cabling also offers extra support for certain branches that may be weak but should not be removed.

Tree Removal

Professional tree removal is often the safest route to dealing with significantly damaged or diseased trees whose structure has become irreversibly compromised. Ensuring that your sick tree is removed prior to hurricane season will eradicate the possibility of it falling over and causing costly damage.
