Recent studies have shown that well-maintained gardening and tree cover can increase the value of your home by up to 30 percent. Even simply improving your current garden from “good” to “excellent” can increase the value of your home by 6 or 7 percent. The imposing trees on your property provide more than beauty — they increase the value of your home. Several recent national surveys show that mature trees in a well-landscaped yard can increase the value of a home by 7 to 19 percent.
Tree cover and landscaping, if done right, can significantly increase the value of your home, while poorly maintained or unmaintained trees and landscaping can have the opposite effect. The final result? Trees have a direct impact on energy use and resource conservation, and the healthier and larger the trees and their canopy, the greater the impact. Whether you're weighing the costs of preserving mature trees on your property or planting large trees on a property you're developing, consider the immediate and long-term benefits. At Davey Tree, we pride ourselves on providing fast, professional, and personalized service from certified arborists who live, work and participate in their community.
