  • Determining when your trees need trimming can be a difficult decision, not including general appearance. But there are a variety of reasons for a tree trimming service whether you need a standard pruning or an overall crown-reducing service. The reasons for tree trimming include:

  • Fine Pruning – this service involved removing small limbs and increases the overall appearance of the tree.

    Standard Pruning – tree pruning is vital to promoting a healthy tree and involved the removal of dead or decaying limbs to improve appeal and remove hazards.

    Hazard Trimming – if you have a tree that is a safety concern, we remove at-risk branches.

    Crown Reduction – this is only done at certain times like when a tree is interfering with a power line or when there is significant dieback. This process involves the removal of major branches to decrease the height of spread of a tree’s crown.

  • Benefits of Tree Trimming

    • Dying branches can lead to potential damages to your property or loved ones. If you have a tree suffering from disease or decay, its limbs are at-risk and so is its structural support.
    • Tree trimming helps the overall appearance of a tree and keeps it from developing weak branches.
    • Tree trimming increases its exposure to the sun and improves air circulation, which improves the tree’s health and underlying landscape.
    • Pruning fruit trees helps improve size and quantity of your crop. Prune fruit trees in the winter to improve its shape and increase sunlight exposure.
    • Newly planted trees should be pruned to help compensate for root loss and allows you to begin training the shape of the tree.
    • A great way to open up your property and allow a more exposed view.
