When Gaithersburg property owners need professional tree services in Gaithersburg, MD, they call us at Riverbend Tree Service. We are locals, so we put care and dedication into every tree and shrub care service we complete for our neighbors.
All sorts of tree diseases, insect infestations, or weak areas can affect the lifespan of a tree. Our ISA-certified arborist has the training to identify all types of tree problems and provide treatment to prevent the spread of disease or infestation in the coming months. Tree death occurs slowly, and the last thing you want is to discover a tree with too much disease to survive.
Services We Offer in Gaithersburg, MD
Scheduled Tree Health Management
Did you know our professional arborist can identify early signs of disease? Trees can benefit from a routine checkup, just like your annual physical exam.
Since we’re from the area, we know all about the different tree diseases and pests that are prevalent in Maryland. Our tree health management visit includes checking for signs of the following:
- Spider mites
- Spotted lanternfly
- Ambrosia beetles
- Fireblight
- Anthracnose
- Boxwood blight
- Aphids
- Apple scab
If we find any problems as we provide tree services in Gaithersburg, MD, we provide tailored treatments to reduce spread to other areas of your property. We know the fertilization your trees need for good root health, and we know the perfect time to apply it for the best results. Applying fertilizer at the right time avoids wasting it during the rainy season or promoting abnormal growth during winter months.
Stump Grinding
A large stump left behind after professional tree removal is a safety hazard and can interrupt the landscaping you work so hard on. The attached root system can continue to thrive, stretching throughout your lawn and disrupting existing plants, plumbing, and decorations.
Stump grinding removes the part of the stump that sticks out of the ground as well as some of the surrounding roots. It creates more space in your yard for planting new trees or to relax.
Tree Pruning
If you prune your trees without knowing the proper techniques, you could end up hurting your trees instead of helping them to thrive. Our Riverbend Tree Service team knows different tree-trimming techniques to give you great results and avoid lasting damage. Some of the types of pruning we provide include:
Property Protection Pruning
The last thing you need is dead branches to fall unexpectedly and injure your family as they enjoy time outside. Also called hazard mitigation, property protection pruning removes hazardous branches before they fall.
Structural Pruning
Trees don’t always grow in ways that benefit them. Structural pruning removes problematic branches and limbs that could weaken the tree over time, giving the tree the opportunity to reach its full potential.
Crown Reshaping
Sometimes, a thriving tree ends up growing too close to power lines or buildings, causing safety issues and fire hazards. Reshaping the crown controls the height and width of the tree, making it appear healthier and reducing safety hazards. Unlike topping, which can kill a tree, crown reshaping is perfectly safe.
Lot Clearing
If you buy an empty lot, you have to deal with safely clearing the area before you begin construction. Our team can remove unwanted trees, boulders, and general overgrowth during our lot clearing service while leaving native plants that add to the value of your property.
Emergency Tree Removal
If a tree on your property dies due to disease or falls during a severe storm, the best thing you can do is call us for emergency tree service before it causes further damage.
A tree that partially falls during a storm is a disaster waiting to happen. If it falls any further, it could damage your home, car, or other personal property.
When you call our emergency hotline, we will come out to your property as soon as possible to examine the tree. We may decide tree removal with a crane is necessary, and we have the equipment and skills to get the job done.
Sometimes, storm damage clean-up includes caring for damaged trees that are likely to survive. By cabling and bracing a split tree, we can give it a second chance at life, and you get to enjoy it for many more years.
