You’ve seen the damage before: branches strewn about gardens and streets, branches lying in awkward angles on driveways or on the tops of cars, even full trees blown down and across roads.
But there are proven ways of preparing trees for a storm. The time to prevent storm-related damage to your trees and property is well before a storm hits. Once it happens, it’s too late to protect your assets.
During the winter months, it can be easy to ease off maintaining the outdoor spaces of your properties, but this is actually an important time for essential garden and landscape maintenance.

For property managers, this is the perfect time to take care of key tasks like tree pruning, ensuring your grounds are in top shape for the coming year.
Late autumn to winter—November through February—is the ideal window for pruning trees. With most plants shedding their leaves during this time, it becomes much easier to see and trim the branches that need attention.
This helps avoid overgrowth and keeps trees safe, tidy, and healthy, minimising risks of damage in high winds.
Since plants are largely dormant during the winter, pruning won’t interfere with their growth cycles. Instead, it prepares them to produce fresh, healthy shoots when spring arrives.
This ensures that your property’s landscaping will come back thriving and visually appealing in the spring and summer months.
For property managers, staying on top of these winter tasks helps ensure that your landscapes remain well-maintained and that you’re set up for a vibrant, healthy outdoor environment when the seasons change.
