Tree Pruning

Crown Thinning
Crown thinning is an essential tree pruning procedure that removes smaller, weaker limbs from the tops of your trees. This opens up the tree canopy, allowing more air and light penetration to the branches and leaves below. Crown thinning also lightens larger limbs’ loads, lowering the risk of losing bigger branches in a spring thunderstorm.
Dead Pruning
Removing dead, dying, or diseased branches is an essential part of having trees on your property. Dead pruning not only removes infected limbs, but also improves the appearance of your trees. Removing all of the dead branches lowers the risk of injury to you and your home.
Crown Reduction
If your trees’ overall height is a concern, then they’re the perfect candidates for crown reduction. By removing small branches attached to the larger, heavier branches, crown reduction ensures that your trees don’t become too top-heavy. This type of pruning is especially crucial for younger trees, and helps promote the young tree to continue to grow big and strong without all the added weight of smaller branches.
Crown Lifting
Crown lifting is the pruning process that removes the low-hanging branches and limbs that are weighing down the higher ones. This process is usually done for trees that overhang pavements, roads, or even your home. Crown lifting also allows for your trees to match the rest of your landscaping, leaving them both well-manicured and healthy.
Pollarding
Pollarding involves removing all branches so that all that remains is a framework of the secondary branches along the main stem. Pollarding begins when your trees are still young and is done at regular intervals during their lifespan. This type of trimming provides a constant supply of small diameter poles without killing your tree.
