Nevada’s Tree Removal Laws.

Nevada’s tree population continuously grows.  Cities like Reno create programs to increase the shade cover and general population of trees.  However, the city and state do not require that citizens acquire a permit for tree removal before cutting down a tree in their yard.  Please check to make sure this applies to you and your property.

Tree removal CAN be a relatively easy process.  When you rely on a tree removal professional to do the job and comply with the specific laws and codes of your area.  No matter what area you live in, the safest distance to plant any hedge or tree shorter than 25 feet in most states is within 20 feet of power lines.

The Tree Professionals know the rules…it’s in our name.  Yes, our name is The Tree Professionals, serving Reno and the surrounding area of Northern Nevada with safe, legal, and complete tree removal services.  Don’t guess, be sure!  Call us at The Tree Professionals for tree removal at (775) 420-7694.

The Trees of Truckee.

Trees of all shapes and sizes abound in and around Reno and Northern Nevada.  Recently, an assessment was made about the trees in our area.  It was funded through an American Reinvestment and Recover Act grant, that was passed to the Nevada Division of Forestry from the U.S. Forest Service.

They reported that with just under 5% regional tree canopy cover, it is apparent that the urban forest of the Truckee Meadows is in its infancy but that development patterns are adding trees and canopy cover to the broader area.  Good tree care will be needed to substantially increase canopy cover.

All of this is not lost on the Tree Professionals.  We are a tree management company located in Reno serving the greater Reno, Sparks, and Washoe County area.  We are dedicated to the care and growth of healthy trees and shrubs not only on your property, but throughout the area.  Whenever you need our services please call (775) 420-8694.

To Prune…or not to Prune.

It is not a question of if, but rather of when.  Is it prudent to trim trees in Northern Nevada in the middle of winter?  Here is a short answer.  Pruning deciduous plants in the winter promotes fast regrowth in the spring, as most of the plants around here are dormant during the winter.  Let’s start with that.

Now, the subject of exactly when and how –

1.  Pick a mild, dry day to prune

2.  Start with the dead and diseased branches

3.  Then remove the overgrown and diseased branches

4.  Hire a professional

As to that last point you can use the theory “what is in a name”.  The Tree Professionals at thetreeprofessional.com sounds like a good place to begin and conclude your search.  Call Greg and the excellent tree pruning bunch at The Tree Professionals.  They know the why’s, when’s, and how’s of Reno area tree trimming.  Just call (775) 420-8694.

Hey…You Down There…We’re Alive Too!

The trees on your property can’t talk, but maybe if they could they would remind you that they have been around (in many cases) a lot longer than you.  In point of fact, right here in the Silver State we have the oldest living trees on earth.  Healthy trees measure the passage of time with their rings (leave grandpa alone!)

Protecting trees from disease is very important.  Here are some of them –

1.  Anthracnose…the sycamore and the dogwood are hit hardest

2.  Cedar rust…found in the crabapple and the hawthorn

3.  Diplodia…the scourge of many pines

4.  Powdery mildew…found when fungus attacks new tissue

There are many others.  Some are found around Northern Nevada and some are not.  Don’t wait to find out the hard way!  If you suspect that any tree on your property is suffering from disease call The Tree Professionals right away.  They serve the Reno area with any and all tree and shrub issues.  That phone number is (775) 420-8694.
