Why Tree Removal Should Only Be Left To Professionals
Landscaping Tips: Why Tree Removal Should Be Left To Pros
Self-medication is detrimental to one’s well-being and can cause serious health issues. It is not for the benefit of the specialists that we are advised to abstain from taking medicine on our own. Risking our lives just to save a few dollars is not a smart decision and needs to be revisited. It can do more damage than good if we don’t follow the dictum of ‘do not self-medicate’.
Likewise, tree removal is also no child’s play. And, if you have kept this under the DIY list, it is time you start doing some research on why to call in experts when it comes to tree removal. To put it mildly, removing trees is a dangerous task and can pose threat to the homeowner’s life and property.
Why you should call in tree service professionals?
Unless an arborist yourself, you will not know for a fact which tree to remove, how much to cut, where the branches would fall or how to start and complete the project safely. Some of the major reasons why you should always hire tree service professionals are:
- They have the right equipment- First and foremost, tree removal must be attempted only with proper equipment in place. At times you might even require a crane. Investing in hiring the machinery and equipment is fine, but there is more to it than just the equipment.
- They are fully trained- Tree service professionals are trained to handle heavy machinery, a prerequisite for removing big and large trees.
- They have the knowledge- Experts have the requisite knowledge about the biology of the tree, they know whether the tree is hollow or not, and from where to start making the cut so that it can be safely removed. They are also in a position to guide you on the condition of the tree, damaged, diseased or otherwise, necessary for the healthy upkeep of your yard.
- They might have to deal with Electrical wiring- Electrical wires near the area where felling has to take place can further complicate the issue. If in case the electrical wires are damaged during the felling operation, an electrician would be required to fix the problem. As the feed is direct, even tree service professional need to coordinate with the electricity service provider.
- They will help you save money- Tree service provider will ensure that no damage is caused to your property when the branches come down. While doing it on your own, if your property gets damaged, you will have only yourself to blame.
- They will dispose it off, safely and rightly- Tree removal is actually half the job done. You can’t just leave the debris in your backyard. The hired service providers have the right wherewithal to dispose of the removed tree safely, an essential for completion of the project.
You wouldn’t hire a medical weight loss doctor to decorate your home, would you? So, unless you are a lawn care professional, don’t “hire” yourself to remove your own trees.
The stakes are high when it comes to tree removal, always hire professionals for jobs that are risky and dangerous. If you are based in and around Lake Mary FL, Sanford FL and Longwood FL, and you have trees to remove, get in touch with Daniels Lawn Service & Pressure Washing Inc. They have what it takes when it comes to tree removal.

Why You Should Landscape Your Open Space
Yard of the Month: Benefits of Landscaping
Ever wondered why highways in the United States have green direction boards with white letters or the reason for doctors wearing green overalls or the hospitals and clinics extensively applying green to their scheme of things? All because green, especially its lighter shades, have a soothing effect and exudes a positive impact. So, highways, doctors or hospitals, are they in anyway connected to landscaping? No, but landscaping is all about the color which is so very popular with them – green.
Landscaping why?
Plants, trees, shrubs or bushes all are hues of green that have a calming influence on the human mind, they also are a source of positive energy and help alleviate stress, thus the importance of landscaping. A house is incomplete without a proper landscaped open space, of course with trees and plants. Most Americans value their open spaces and hence understand the meaning of having a healthy garden. But, how would you get a perfect landscape for your lawn? A landscaping company like Daniels Lawn Service & Pressure Washing Inc. can solve your problem and make your lawn look good.
Some obvious benefits of landscaping are:
- Health– Other than stress relief, a beautifully landscaped garden, also provides clean and fresh air by trapping the pollutants present in the atmosphere, enabling your family to stay fit. It provides privacy to your home, while large plants used for landscaping also absorb unwanted sounds, keeping unpleasant noises away from your ears. Moreover, it helps the family nurture an active and healthy lifestyle.
- Entertainment- An exquisite landscape, having seating provisions is ideal to host parties for friends and family during festivities and celebrations.
- Environment- We need oxygen to breathe. Plants and trees give us oxygen, which is essential for our survival, and consume carbon dioxide, a deadly pollutant responsible for the greenhouse effect, making the environment habitable. They also keep in check temperature extremes, staying warm in winters and cool in summers.
- Economic- A well-maintained, healthy and beautiful landscape is bound to boost the actual value pf your property. Plants can also help reduce your energy bills by providing shade to the air conditioning units outside your home.
Both, lawn maintenance and/or landscaping are time-consuming jobs and require full time attention. Moreover, landscaping is not a DIY work, a professional is needed to either, design and implement a strategy, which you approve, or execute the plan you have in mind. Time is the biggest constraint we have, therefore how should we go about planning our lawn care activities? The answer is to hire a landscaping company which will first design or redesign your garden and then take care of it.

Back to School Yard Upkeep
Let’s just admit it – Floridians love to take their shoes off in the most unusual places. Seeing it is believing it and it happens to the best of us. One unusual place that comes to mind is the quad of a school. The sandals come off and the tiny toes of students across the campus enjoy the feel of nature after being stuck in a classroom all morning.
The greenery of a school yard is no stranger to barefooted adolescents and neither are the fields they perform their extracurricular activities on. There’s nothing wrong with it per se. It’s just odd that teachers have to tell them to put their shoes back on in the classroom!
Presentation Outside the Classroom
Daniel’s Lawn Service & Pressure Washing Inc. prides ourselves on the lush grounds we sculpt. We want you to feel able to kick off your shoes and feel soft and warm grass. From school yards to office building grounds to residential lawns, the best groundskeepers are artists with that lawnmower!
Lawn services are more than cutting grass, especially when tiny humans are involved! Safety should always come first and no Lake Mary and its surrounding areas can be quite hazardous after a particularly nasty storm. Trees, hedges and other large fixtures can cause a great deal of damage if not maintained properly.
Safe Zones
Sure children are proned to run around, get reckless and get hurt roughhousing, but the terrain doesn’t have to make it any easier on them does it? The same goes for clean walls and asphalt. A good pressure washing removes the hazardous mold and other dirt & germs that help spread those colds and other pesky infections.
Call today to have Daniel’s Lawn Service & Pressure Washing inspect and maintain your grounds for the Grade A presentation & safety of your school yard this back to school yards season!
Better Summer Heat Lawn Care
Summer Heat vs Gardening & Lawn Care
It’s awfully hot out there Central Florida. Hopefully you’re keeping up the lawn care after all the hard work and investments you’ve put into it. Heatwaves typically aren’t fun to do some gardening in, but they can be the most important times. Luckily it rains every afternoon here but that doesn’t stop the summer temperatures from jumping off the charts up until those showers.
The best defense against the sweltering heat is a consistent offense (and, of course a good air conditioning service). Routine maintenance and upkeep by Daniel’s Lawn Services & Pressure Washing Inc. ensures the healthy reflection of perfection that you’ve cultivated throughout the year.
Food For Thought
Sure the rain will keep it moist in the evenings, giving us those swamp-like conditions, but keep an eye on areas that may be struggling regardless. Every living thing needs to eat but overeating can kill. Too much water is just as dangerous as too little when it comes to plants. Hence why the hot sunny mornings balance out the ecosystem for landscape design so beautifully. If you see discoloring areas throughout your luscious greens, take note and give us a call! We also offer an Orlando tree service.
Know Your Inhabitants
Hopefully before you planted those unique yet jaw dropping flowers or shrubbery, you researched their survival conditions. Optimal weather and climate will make or break your grounds if you ignore them. So will summertime critters and creepy crawlers!
Be wary of vegetable gardens seasonal restraints before diving into gardening DIY projects. Did you know mulch isn’t just for scenery; it provides soil moisture and protects against weeds! Neither are the lawn care services vehicles parked in front of your neighbor’s perfectly groomed yard.
Another great strategy to protect your yard care attempts is to allow a little extra length of your grass. Taller grass lets the roots grow stronger and deeper into a healthier structure. A healthier lawn is a happier lawn!

April Showers Bring May YARD WORK!
April Showers Bring May YARD WORK!
They say that it doesn’t snow in Florida, it “pollens”. When you step outside on another beautiful spring day only to find your black car is now a yellow one, then you would probably agree. Even though spring brings stormy weather, Floridians are quite used to the afternoon showers all year round. However, in the spring season nature sprouts anew and life is reborn. Your lawn is no exception!
The best way to keep your lawn healthy and manageable is with the assistance of professional lawn care services. In the rainy season, routine lawn maintenance is a necessity that gives your home or commercial location a polished appearance others will admire. Your grass may not be greener but its aesthetic is definitely cleaner!
Pristine & Professional
No business with a physical address should have an unkempt and uninviting outside appearance. You shouldn’t be surprised by how many consumers still judge a book by its cover. Your attention to “Location, location, location” is pointless if you let that location look like the depths of the Amazon!
Along with the best landscaping services taking care of the beauty of nature on your property, keep your building’s walls and parking lot areas clear of damage from aging or those April showers with Daniels’ pressure washing and clean-up services. Fight water with water!
Rain Helps & Hurts
You probably remember terms like photosynthesis from your high school science classroom days, but it takes an experienced and licensed landscaping professional to effectively manage the health of your property grounds.
Too much rain for lawns has a pesky effect on your lawn’s growth and strength. Issues arise such as:
- Damaged Roots
- Insects & other Pests

- Overrun Fungi
Hopefully your grounds have healthy, timely natural seepage/drainage processes that take care of relieving excess water.
