As Hurricane Sandy Speeds toward Philadelphia Giroud Tree Service Gives Actions for Homeowners to Protect Family and …

With Hurricane Sandy projected to hit the Philadelphia area as a tropical storm or Nor'easter, Giroud Tree Service recommends several actions for homeowners to protect family and property from tree damage and the need for emergency tree removal. Additionally, Giroud Arborists and emergency tree service crews will be standing-by through the Hurricane and beyond to handle any emergency.

"Because this storm is hitting while tree canopies are still dense with leaves, trees are at a higher risk for damage or failure in this storm, says Lou Giroud, ISA Certified Arborist and President of Giroud Tree Service. Additionally, Giroud has put its Arborists, staff and emergency tree service crews on alert for emergency tree removal including tree removal from houses and other structures."

Giroud Tree Service recommends Philadelphia area homeowners take the following actions now:

Unfortunately, its too late to do tree removal and tree maintenance to protect trees from Hurricane Sandy. In these tough economic times, many Philadelphia homeowners have postponed tree inspections and maintenance.

Over the past 38 years in the tree service business, experience proves that consistently inspected and maintained trees are least likely to suffer damage in a storm, says Lou Giroud. An inspection by an ISA Certified Arborist will identify safety issues such as weak limbs, unstable root systems and structural defects. Cable supports between weak limbs can prevent a tree from splitting apart. Structural pruning will help the wind blow easily through the canopy. Tree removal of hazardous trees can be completed before damage is done."

Whether Hurricane Sandy is a tropical storm or a Nor'easter, by the time it hits Philadelphia, large trees are at highest risk for damage or failure in fierce wind and rain storms. Giroud Arborists are on call 24/7 to handle any tree service emergency including tree removal. Contact Giroud Tree Service at: 215-682-7704 or customerservice@giroudtree.com for questions related to the storm or any emergency.
