Protecting Plants During Construction

Picture
As you plan for that building project or new addition, it is vital to create a plan to protect plants during a construction project. Trees and other plants can get destroyed due to slope changes, changing landscapes, heavy equipment compaction, and root injury. Protecting plants during construction is as crucial as creating design plans with a contractor.

If you want to sustain your landscape and reduce damage to any foliage on your landscape, begin with a couple of tips below about safeguarding your trees and plants.

Effects of Construction on Outdoor Spaces
Each tree in your landscape has the possibility of getting destroyed during a construction job. While flowers and shrubs getting run over or trampled are apparent causes, trees (including the stems, limbs, and roots) are at risk as well.

Just letting a construction crew run right over your outdoor space can create a tremendous amount of damage, including killing your plants and trees. The last thing you want to do after shelling out money for a construction job is having to hire tree care and stump grinding company to handle a damaged tree.

Preventing construction damage to trees guarantees a continuous ecosystem balance and sustains the visual appeal of your property. Various natural methods can aid in doing construction projects, and landscapes complement each other instead of creating havoc.  

New home construction is one of the most damaging ways to destroy existing trees. Large equipment is necessary to excavate a basement or foundation. Roads must be built and established to provide somewhere for vehicles to travel. Likewise, mounds of dirt put over tree roots may hinder their capability of receiving air, nutrients, and water.

The chemicals and off-gases used in countless construction jobs can affect trees’ health. Just bulldozing over an area tear out shrubs and bushes, squashes plants, and uproots flora.

Ways to Protect Plants during Construction
Pruning accurately and with precision can safeguard various trees and plants. This could go way past just eliminating woody material and could include pruning.

Usually, a Rochester arborist is required to do the initial maintenance the right way. In some instances, the whole tree has to be temporarily relocated to safeguard it from construction equipment and offer a clear way for crew members.
