To the casual observer, it might seem as though pruning branches off a tree might harm its health. After all, trees in the forests and woods aren't pruned by anyone, and they grow just fine on their own. Plus, it's hard to image how wounding a tree can do it good. However, trees on our residential and commercial properties experience different needs and threats to their health compared to trees that grow on their own, so pruning can be extremely beneficial for trees in our urban and suburban areas.

Fall weather is gradually making its way to the Houston area, and with it comes a slowdown in growth among trees, plants, and lawns on commercial properties. While commercial sites do not usually need as much maintenance through the fall and winter months, they do benefit from proactive maintenance services that keep the property healthy and stable through the cooler months. In today's LMC post, we discuss three ways to improve commercial properties in time for fall weather.

The Houston area continues the recovery process following the devastation caused by Hurricane Harvey, with scores of business owners busy gutting structures, recovering assets, and making plans for repairs. However, many commercial property owners don't realize that floodwaters impact more than just buildings and structures.

With Hurricane Harvey rapidly approaching the Texas coast, businesses across the area are scrambling to make last-minute preparations and protect their structures, assets, and employees. However, commercial sites themselves need protection from severe weather conditions, as storms can inflict significant and costly damage on property trees, landscapes, and plants. In today's LMC blog post, we look at several ways commercial property owners can protect their sites from storm damage and protect their commercial property investment.
