How Landscaping Pros Remove Ivy From Buildings
Ivy can be a beautiful addition to your landscape, adding greenery and charm to your property. However, when it begins to climb up buildings, it can become a significant problem. Ivy can damage siding, clog gutters, and even cause structural issues over time. If you’re dealing with an ivy invasion on your building, you might be wondering how professionals tackle this task. The good news is that landscaping pros have effective strategies to remove ivy safely and efficiently.
Our Approach
Assessment: Professionals start with a thorough inspection of the affected area. They identify the type of ivy, the extent of its growth, and any potential damage to the building.
Preparation: Before removal, the area around the ivy is cleared. This includes protecting nearby plants and structures from damage during the removal process.
Removal Techniques: Landscaping pros use a combination of physical and chemical methods to remove the ivy. This may involve cutting the ivy at its base, pulling it away from the building, and applying herbicides if necessary.
Post-Removal Care: After ivy removal, professionals will clean up the area, ensuring no debris is left behind. They may also provide recommendations for future prevention.
