Winterize Your Trees

Winterize Your Trees

We usually remember to winterize our car and house. We add anti-freeze to the car, we turn off the water outside, we seal up the windows….but we sometimes forget to winterize our trees. And it can be costly to wait for Mother Nature to do it.

Winterize means trimming and deadwooding trees so they can make it safely through the winter. It’s a preventative measure to protect your trees and surrounding property.

Trimming does several things:Reduces weight so that heavy ice and snow damage is minimized.Reduces surface area so wind does not have as much impact.Eliminates dead or damaged branches before breaking or falling.Clears branches from potential obstacles such as utility lines, buildings and property.

The Advantages of Winterizing:Reduces the risk of ice-laden branches falling on nearby obstacles.Prevents more expensive emergency tree work.Avoids household disruptions, costly repairs and insurance claims.Reduces power outages by removing branches over utility lines before they fall.

Save yourself time, money and headaches. Winterize your trees before Mother Nature does it for you.

We have a huge oak tree in our back yard. A large branch had fallen and several branches needed to be trimmed away from the house and power line. River City was able to quickly get us a quote and schedule us. They were professional and did a great job. They even called the next day to verify that we were satisfied with the service. Would definitely recommend!

These guys did their work as promised. They were on time and they provided great service after cutting down a storm-damaged branch from our tree. They also did fantastic cleanup work after the job. And to make matters even better, when my wife asked them to come back and prune the remaining branch a little better, they came and did so without further charge. I will be using them again in future.

They came out within about 2 weeks of quoting us. They were very kind throughout the whole process and explained the cost of everything. Once they got here they were quick but made sure to work clean. I would recommend them again

We had an awesome experience using River City Tree Service! They were extremely professional and easy to work with. They worked like a well oiled machine, from, coordinating with Ameren to drop our power line, extremely fast removal, and left a clean site afterwards. On top of all of that, they were a great value compared to other bids that we received. I would highly recommend them if you are in need of any tree work.

The workers were prompt and did a great job cutting two trees down and stump grinding. We were very satisfied with their work. Also impressed with their cleanup. We thought their quote was a fair price and we were glad there was not a long wait time for a date to schedule the work. We will definitely use them again.
