Winter Newsletter: Cozy Fires & Winter Tree Work

Greetings from Higher Ground Tree Removal!

Winter has arrived, and with it comes the joy of cozying up by the fireplace and the opportunity to tackle some important outdoor projects. In this edition of our newsletter, we’re sharing best practices for keeping your fireplace safe and efficient, along with insights into why winter is a great time for tree work. Let’s dive in!

Fireplace Best Practices for a Safe and Warm Winter

A crackling fire is one of the best ways to stay warm this season, but it’s important to use your fireplace responsibly. Here are some tips to keep your home safe and your fires burning brightly:

Schedule a Chimney Inspection: Before lighting your first fire, have your chimney inspected and cleaned by a professional to remove creosote buildup, which can cause chimney fires.
Burn Only Dry, Seasoned Wood: Green or wet wood produces excess smoke and creosote. Stick to hardwoods like oak, maple, or birch that have been dried for at least six months.
Install a Chimney Cap: A cap prevents animals, debris, and moisture from entering your chimney and causing blockages or damage.
Keep the Area Clear: Ensure furniture, rugs, and other flammable items are at least three feet away from the fireplace.
Use a Fireplace Screen: A screen or glass door keeps embers from escaping and protects your family and pets.

By following these tips, you can enjoy a warm, safe, and efficient fireplace all winter long.

Winter Tree Work: A Season of Opportunity

Many people think of tree work as a warm-weather activity, but winter is actually one of the best times to care for your trees. Here’s why:

1. Hard, Frozen Ground Protects Your Landscape

When the ground is frozen, heavy equipment can access your property without damaging lawns, flower beds, or soft soil. This minimizes disruption to your landscaping.

2. Trees Are Dormant

During winter, trees are in their dormant phase, which means pruning and removal are less stressful for them. This is especially true for deciduous trees that have shed their leaves, making it easier to see their structure and identify issues.

3. Reduced Risk of Pests and Disease

Many pests and tree diseases are less active in cold weather, so pruning in winter reduces the risk of spreading harmful pathogens.

4. Get Ahead of Spring Growth

By tackling tree work in winter, your trees will be ready to grow strong and healthy come spring. Plus, you’ll beat the rush and avoid long wait times for appointments.

5. Better Visibility for Tree Assessment

Without foliage, it’s easier to spot dead or hazardous branches that need to be addressed for safety reasons.
