This past week was Hurricane Preparedness Week. Though Nashville and Middle Tennessee is inland and we don’t have to worry about hurricanes, it’s important to be prepared for emergency flooding and serious weather that might make its way toward our local area. Heavy rainfall and flash flooding can be a side effect of many hurricanes that hit the East and Gulf Coast regions. Landscape, tree and lawn maintenance are at risk, so it’s important to know how to be prepared and what to do if or when it arrives.

Trees, lawns and landscapes can be seriously damaged during flooding and emergency rains. Flooding can manifest in three different types: flash flooding, areal flooding and river flooding — all of which are possible here in Nashville and Middle Tennessee. If you’ve lived through the Nashville Flood of 2010, then you understand that emergency situations can happen. It’s important to be prepared. Here are a few ways for your tree care, lawns and landscape can be ready in case of emergency flooding:

Call the Parke Company for an initial consultation — If you haven’t done anything yet, be sure to call them for an initial consultation for any of your landscape and irrigation needs. This will ensure that your your lawn and landscape are level and ready to go.

Have an emergency plan ready — This is common for any emergency situation, but be sure you have an emergency plan ready for your trees and lawn maintenance too. Have the Parke Company’s emergency line and other emergency numbers handy.

Debris cleaned up — The Parke Company has lawn maintenance, mulching and debris services to help make sure your lawns are cleaned up all year round. In the event a disaster happens, you won’t have to worry about loose debris causing damage or other messes to clean up later.

Drainage systems cleared — This will keep the rainwater flowing and prevent unnecessary clogging. Trees are often a culprit of clogging up drainage pipes, so it’s important to make sure the drains are continually kept clear.

Being prepared is a great way to avoid unnecessary stress and damage to your landscape, lawns and trees when flooding occurs. Fortunately for Nashvillians, we don’t have to worry about hurricanes, however that doesn’t mean we don’t have our fair share of bad weather. Be sure to call the Parke Company for any tree care and landscape needs. For more information, call them today!

Many customers ask the Parke Company ways they can get more bang for their buck when taking care of landscape and trees. But the answer is very easy! Not only will the Parke Company work within your budget for all of your lawn maintenance and tree care needs, but they also recommend purchasing larger packages to save money in the long run. If customers are willing to spend a bit more on the front end, the services will reward you later.

Four Reasons Why You Should Book For Larger Projects:

Work with your budget — Many customers choose to do several, smaller projects over a course of time. While this might save money at first, it ends up costing more in the end. The Parke Company understands that customers need to stay within a budget. The team is always willing to work with a client to make sure they receive the best tree care or lawn maintenance service within their price range.

Payments are easy — Especially as the new school season approaches, the Parke Company understands that you may not have the cash to pay for larger projects, however rest assured they have you covered. Customers can set up credit card payments online or an auto payment plan through the office. Have the money to pay it all at once? The Parke Company offers discounts for the overall cost if the customer can pay up front.

Save money by not overlapping services — Doing smaller projects over a longer course of time might seem appealing if you’re trying to save a dollar or two. However clients end up spending more because they end up overlapping services. This is such an easy problem to avoid if you can afford to complete all your projects at once.

Fewer visits — Though the Parke Company loves spending time with their clients, whether you are in the Belle Meade or Oak Hill area, we know you want to get back to enjoying your trees and landscape. Booking all your jobs at once will not only ensure all of your projects are completed sooner, but they also require fewer visits.

Trees, flowerbeds and lawns are flourishing in the summer sun. If you have a large project envisioned for your landscape, the Parke Company has a variety of possibilities to make those visions come to life. Whether you want to save money or get the project done quickly, there’s no reason you shouldn’t hire the Parke Company for your big summer project if you are in the Nashville and Middle Tennessee area.
