Planting shrubs near your exterior walls can help to regulate the temperature inside your home or commercial building. They can shade windows and block direct sunlight, which will reduce the amount of heat that your property is exposed to in the warm summer months. In addition, shrubs can help to stabilize temperatures in the wintertime, when temperatures drop below freezing. The result is improved energy efficiency and long-term savings on your monthly utility bills.

Improved Curb Appeal

Shrubs offer a lot of beauty in a small package. Planting the right varieties of shrubs can drastically increase your curb appeal and property value, with minimal financial investment. You can choose a few drought-tolerant evergreen shrubs that can be pruned into interesting shapes. If you are looking for bursts of color in the springtime, you can opt for Lilacs or Azaleas.

Evita Fikes

Sesmas did a terrific job for us on a project completed today involving the removal of 18 problem trees. Project was completed exactly as promised, skillfully and for a reasonable price. Mike Fowler was excellent in overseeing the work and his crew was outstanding. Highly recommend!

Kathryn Arvidson

These guys were on point. Verified the request before beginning (always good, because the trees aren't coming back!). Then made sure the trimming was done to exactly where I wanted it. On time, fast, and completely cleaned up after - was a great experience. Highly recommend!

Josh Pitchford

Urban pollution is becoming more of a problem as the population of major cities and their surrounding communities continue to swell. Shrubs can help to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the environment around your home, while also providing additional sources of oxygen. Planting trees and shrubs in your yard can help to filter the air and will provide a more comfortable place for friends and family to enjoy themselves.

Soil Stability

Erosion can be extremely detrimental for the health of your soil. Runoff from heavy rains can quickly deplete the nutrients that your plants are dependent on for survival. The strong roots of shrubs can create more stability in the soil structure, which helps to reduce erosion over time.
