​Tree Pruning

​Roof and Building Clearance

• to prevent damage to structures, pruning is done to maintain a safe distance 

​​

Deadwood Removal

• for safety primarily - removing dead limbs to prevent harm to unsuspecting persons or structures below​

​

Thinning

• removal of selective live branches for increased air-flow, sun penetration, and reduced competition in an otherwise dense canopy

• lessens risk of failure in high winds by allowing wind to pass through more easily

• structural pruning to remove defective limbs and balance the weight of the tree

​

Canopy Reduction

• reduces the end weight and height of the crown (or top) of a tree in a healthy way by pruning back to healthy live laterals and promoting new crown growth

• smaller cuts and less stress on the tree; reduces risk of decay and/or pest infestation

• in older trees especially, removing long, heavy, overextended limbs and/or defective branches as well as those with poor attachment points can prevent torsional cracks from developing and reduce the risk of failure in winter storms and/or high winds
