Strong winds can turn weak or overgrown branches into dangerous projectiles, causing damage to homes, vehicles, and power lines. Dead, diseased, or structurally weak limbs are especially vulnerable to breaking under the pressure of heavy winds. Regular trimming helps eliminate these risks and ensures your trees remain strong and resilient during storms.
Prevent Property Damage
A single falling branch can cause thousands of dollars in damage to roofs, windows, fences, or vehicles here in Texas. In some cases, an entire tree may uproot if it’s top-heavy due to unbalanced growth. Trimming by a professional tree service firm helps distribute weight more evenly, reducing the likelihood of a tree toppling over and causing significant destruction. You can get peace of mind that your property is safer.
An example here work that we did for a client AFTER the March 14th, 2025 wind storm in Abilene. Our client in her review praised our services saying “The crew worked efficiently and fast. Making sure to clean everything, including blowing debris off the roof, sidewalks and road. I highly recommend Thornton’s.”
Improve Tree Health
Regular pruning not only protects your property but also enhances the health of your trees. Removing dead or diseased limbs allows for better airflow and light penetration, reducing the risk of fungal infections and pest infestations. A well-maintained tree is better equipped to withstand harsh weather conditions.
Avoid Emergency Costs
We know from past history after storms, emergency tree removal services are often in high demand here in the Abilen area, making them harder to schedule. By getting your trees trimmed before a storm, you can avoid the hassle and expense of last-minute emergency services while ensuring your property remains safe.
Protect Your Family and Neighbors
Untrimmed trees can pose a serious safety hazard to your family and neighbors. A falling limb or uprooted tree can cause injuries or even fatalities. Taking preventive action reduces these risks and gives you peace of mind when severe weather is on the horizon.
