Tree pruning
Tree pruning is the most valuable of the tree services we offer. Tree trimming or tree pruning is a process that stimulates a tree’s health and allows it to grow properly with its surroundings. Working with a trusted arborist on a long term maintenance plan for your tree is a commitment that pays off.
Dead limbs will be the first to be trimmed off. This will allow the tree to focus more of its energy where it is needed. It is crucial these cuts be done in a proper way to allow the tree to seal its wound quickly. Dull saws, a bad angle and lack of knowledge can be detrimental to a tree’s health.
Moving into the canopy of your tree, the arborist will thin out the canopy to allow light and fresh air to move freely throughout. This will strengthen the structure of your tree and boosts its health allowing it to fight off disease and infection. Each cut is made with the next couple of years of growth in mind.
Any limbs that pose future threats should be removed before they are too large or become a hazard to your property or family and friends. Approximately 25% of a tree’s biomass can be pruned at a time. A Tree needs to properly heal before it can be pruned again. Healing time depends on the species of tree.
Winter is the best time to prune most trees, except for sap bearing trees. These trees are best pruned in early spring or late fall. Needless to say, Tree pruning can be performed anytime of the year as needed. Most clients on our tree maintenance programs follow industry guidelines and have us in to perform our tree services during the seasons recommended
