You might have a beautiful home with a roof that is in great shape and sturdy siding. But if you don’t keep your vegetation trimmed, you could be putting your home at risk. When you allow your trees and plants to overtake your house, you can actually be allowing unnecessary damage. Let’s say you have vines spreading across your siding. Some people might like this natural look, but what is actually being allowed to take place? Plants can hold and trap water against your home. This can result in the growth of mold, mildew, fungi, and so much more.
When trees are allowed to hang over your roof, the branches can cause all kinds of damage, especially during intense weather. This can result in shingles being scratched, bent, broken, or completely torn away. Storms can also cause branches to break and collapse onto the room, or even make a whole tree fall over. If you aren’t sure whether or not a tree is safe, call a professional to come take a look. If you attempt to cut your branches back but can’t quite reach them properly or safely, again, reach out to a professional for help.
The safety of you and your family is top priority. It doesn’t take a lot of extra time to maintain your vegetation and ensure your home is in good condition.
