Improved Tree Health – Removing unhealthy, damaged, or dead branches will increase the health of your trees.

Enhanced Tree Structure – Developmental pruning of young trees will encourage them to grow with their proper shape and structure. Newly planted trees can benefit the most from proper structural pruning by setting them up for a successful life with strong branches.

Weight Reduction – It is not uncommon for trees to develop large scaffold limbs that grow over houses and power lines. Proper end weight reduction allows you to maintain the natural beauty and shape of your tree, while reducing the weight on the leverage arm of the branch.

Attractive Appearance – Just like your other plants, pruning for aesthetics enhances the enjoyment of your landscape and improves your property value.

Restoration – Trees that have been damaged through improper topping practices, or damaged from storm events can be restored, over time, to a prior state through selective thinning and removal of sprouts to develop a new, strong canopy.

Naturally, trees typically take care of themselves by shedding limbs that are not needed. However, in urban environments, trees need to be trimmed for several reasons including: providing clearance to structures, reducing risks associated with falling dead branches, reducing weight on over extended branches, and meeting specific goals associated with views and property management.
