Trimming
Through careful shortening and removal of branches, our tree service professionals reduce hazards and maintain the health of the tree. In general, it’s best to hire our tree trimming services in the fall or winter when trees are dormant. But flowering species are best trimmed shortly after blooming and palms are best trimmed just before they start producing seeds. Pruning or trimming is typically done once per year, less often as the tree matures.
The crown of a tree consists of the branches and leaves extending from the trunk. Our high-quality tree care includes whatever tree trimming services are appropriate for each particular tree and may involve thinning topping, and branch removal. Our experts carefully balance hazard reduction, attractive foliage, and tree health.
- Cleaning removes dead wood along with broken, diseased, or poorly attached branches.
- Thinning selectively removes branches for improved light and air circulation. It can also be used to improve views.
- Crown raising removes lower branches to provide clearance for buildings, pedestrians, vehicles, and signs.
- Crown reduction involves reducing the size of the tree by removing as many as 1/4 of the branches. This requires a higher level of expertise but leaves the tree with improved structural integrity, having its weight balanced and windsail reduced so that it’s more resistant to winds. It can also mean that views are no longer blocked.
- Utility trimming prevents damage to power, cable, and phone lines.
The higher up you go and the larger the branch the greater the danger there is to the trimmer and anyone or anything below. We’re always improving the safety of our procedures and keep up with the latest techniques, as there’s always room for improvement.
