Pruning is all about extending the lifespan of your trees.
And saving you from some very avoidable hazards – fallen branches, power line interference, and roof damage – oh my. Whether your trees are overgrown, damaged or just need a trim, we can help. An arborist doesn’t just hack away. There’s finesse, strategy and a little nature voodoo/know-how that goes into every prune.
Pruning helps trees grow in several ways. First, it removes dead or diseased branches that can weigh the tree down and prevent it from growing properly. Second, pruning stimulates new growth by encouraging the tree to produce more leaves and flowers. And third, pruning helps to shape the tree’s canopy and ensure that it is strong and healthy.
Pruning is the act of removing unnecessary or dead branches from a tree. It’s a beneficial practice for a number of reasons, including safety, aesthetics, tree health and consistent growth. Pruning helps to prevent tree hazards, such as falling branches. This is especially important if you have trees near your home, driveway, or walkway. Pruning helps reduce the risk of storm damage by removing dead, weak, or diseased branches that are more likely to break during a storm.
Overgrown and diseased branches are more likely to break and fall – or become a hazard to power lines or your roof.
Pruning is a great way to spruce up the look of your trees, and give them a more aesthetically pleasing shape.
Restoration pruning can help to restore trees after they have been damaged by storms.
Pruning is one of the best ways to ensure that unnecessary disease and damage aren’t hanging around.
Clearing low branches will help fix obstructed view lines and to allow pedestrian traffic to flow freely.
The best time to prune trees depends on the type of tree and the climate you live in. In general, it’s best to prune trees when they are dormant, which is usually during the winter months. This is because pruning during dormancy will help the tree to heal more quickly.
However, there are some exceptions to this rule. For example, fruit trees should be pruned in the fall or after fruit has been harvested. Pruning in the Spring or too early promotes tree growth and may adversely impact fruit yield.
