Winter is Coming

As the temperatures drop and the wind picks up, your trees face their toughest season yet. Heavy snow, ice, and gusty winds can turn even the strongest-looking tree into a hazard. A hazardous tree threatens your home, vehicles, and safety.

At Browning Tree Service, we help homeowners get ahead of winter risks. From pruning vulnerable branches to removing unstable trees before storms hit, our certified team makes sure your yard is winter-ready. Healthy trees aren’t just beautiful; they’re safe.

Pro Tip: Check for dead branches, cracks in the trunk, or leaning limbs before the first snow. Early attention can prevent costly damage and dangerous surprises.

If your tree is damaged, start by putting safety first. Check it from a distance for signs like:

  • Uplifted ground that may indicate root failure

  • Damaged limbs or trunk

  • Hanging branches that could fall

  • Also, stay clear of any utility lines—assume they’re live and dangerous. Always prioritize safety before taking any action.

Let us help you protect your property and enjoy a worry-free season.
