Tree trimming and pruning helps your landscape flourish by addressing architectural tree care concerns such as tree risk, structural integrity, shape and appearance. Tree care services performed by a certified arborist enhance the natural beauty of your trees and shrubs to help preserve their strength, stature and seasonal character.
Trees can be trimmed to reduce their size/weight, the limbs can be elevated for clearance or you may wish to just cut out the dead, diseased and broken branches from your trees.
Tree trimmimg provides a variety of benefits to your trees:
Health
Our tree trimming services include the removal of diseased, broken, or dead branches on both mature and young trees for protection of property, landscape and the trees themselves. Tree care of this type can prevent disease-causing fungi from penetrating and infecting other areas of your tree. The reduction or removal of live branches is often necessary to improve tree structure.
Young Tree Pruning
Pruning young trees, known as developmental tree pruning, is performed for structural enhancement. This important tree care procedure helps ensure that your young trees have a desirable branch architecture and structural integrity. Proper pruning of trees when they are young reduces the potential of costly problems and the need for supplemental support as your landscape matures.
Appearance and Restoration
Pruning for appearance and restoration is essential for maximizing the beauty of formal plantings and to assist with landscape maintenance. In particular, we advocate aesthetic tree care for mature trees when the characteristic form of trees has deteriorated.
Reducing Risk
Pruning can help protect against storm damage and the danger of falling limbs. This is particularly a concern for trees along pedestrian paths, driveways, and surrounding buildings. We also recommend pruning trees with low-hanging branches in certain areas to eliminate interference with pedestrian and vehicular traffic. Learn more about our storm damage prevention services.
Visual Access
Increase your landscape’s value and enhance its beauty with vista pruning. Vista pruning creates visual access to lakes, valleys or other picturesque views, while maintaining privacy where desired.
