On our appointment day, Gerry called to let me know that Marcos and his crew would be coming out and when to expect them. Marcos and crew definitely knew what they were doing.

FAQs for trees & shrubs treat, protect and maintain projects in Waukegan, IL

The optimal timing for bush trimming depends largely on plant variety and growth characteristics. For most deciduous shrubs, late winter or early spring, before new growth emerges, provides ideal results. Plants grown primarily for their flowers should be trimmed shortly after blooming concludes to preserve next year's flower buds. During periods of extreme heat or cold, it's advisable to postpone significant trimming to avoid stressing plants when they're most vulnerable.

While tipping isn't generally expected for landscape maintenance services, it's sometimes offered for exceptional work or service. When considering a gratuity, factors like job complexity, attention to detail, and overall professionalism might influence your decision. For larger crews, individual tips of $10 to $20 per worker may be more practical than percentage-based amounts. Always prioritize paying the agreed service price before considering additional gratuities.

Professional trimming can contribute significantly to pest management by eliminating overcrowded growth where insects often shelter and breed. Proper pruning improves air circulation throughout the plant, reducing conditions favorable for fungal diseases and certain insect infestations. Experienced landscapers often identify early signs of pest activity during trimming, allowing for prompt intervention before problems escalate. Some services offer integrated pest management approaches alongside trimming for comprehensive plant health.

Most overgrown shrubs can be successfully rehabilitated through appropriate pruning techniques, though severely neglected specimens may require a phased approach. Professional landscapers evaluate each plant's condition to determine whether gradual reduction or more aggressive rejuvenation pruning would be most effective. 

The recovery timeline varies by species, with some showing remarkable improvement within a single growing season while others require multiple years to regain optimal form and health.
