Tree Pruning

The removal of lower branches to provide clearance for buildings, vehicles, pedestrians and vistas.

Reducing the overall size of a tree’s height and spread by pruning back the leading branches to secondary branches that are large enough to assume the terminal role.

Properly pruning a tree in its early stages is essential for developing a tree with a strong structure and desirable form. As these trees grow they will require less corrective pruning and will have fewer defects as they mature.

Tree topping is the drastic removal or cutting back of large branches in mature trees, leaving large open wounds that result in the onset of decay and disease. Topping trees causes immediate injury to the tree and leads to branch failures or death. Topped trees will forever have their natural shape altered and will put your tree under unwanted stress.
