Trees can significantly enhance your home landscaping and add instant curb appeal by providing needed shade, vibrant foliage, and seasonal blossoms. But if not researched and planted correctly, trees can also cause difficulties with your home maintenance and increase the time to maintain your yard.
Here are some pointers to help:
Tip # 1: Call 811 to locate your utility lines. Digging into a power line can be both very dangerous and inconvenient.
Tip # 2: Know where your sewer lines are by looking at your inspection report or contacting a sewer company. Tree roots will cause havoc if they get into your sewer lines.
Tip # 3: Consult an arborist or research the type of tree's root radius, maintenance, and upkeep. Watering schedules, fertilizer needs, and whether it will bear fruits or seeds will impact the time you will spend maintaining your yard.
Tip # 4: Know the tree's growth time and average adult size. You will want to plan accordingly so tree branches do not rub against your home or impede power lines.
