During the winter season, temperatures are dropping low and the chance for ice and even snow increases. Those located near our Charlotte, NC or Greenville, SC locations know especially well that we had a serious snow episode recently, leaving some places covered under 10+ inches. As the temperature dropped to allow such cold conditions, many trees couldn’t handle the weight of snow under frozen and brittle branches. Our crews responded to multiple broken limbs and trees that had completely uprooted or damaged structures.
In the wake of all this clean-up, what are some next steps when it comes to your trees and shrubs? Here are a few “What do I do now?” ideas should you walk outside and find a limb (or a tree!) has fallen.
