Benefits of Tree Pruning

Tree pruning provides a variety of benefits to your trees and landscape:

• Health
  Tree pruning services include the removal of diseased, broken, or dead branches on mature trees and young trees alike for tree protection. This prevents decay-producing fungi from penetrating and infecting other areas of your tree. The removal of live branches is occasionally necessary to allow increased exposure to sunlight and circulation of air within the canopy.
• Structural
  Young tree pruning, also known as developmental tree pruning, is pruning performed for structural enhancement. This important procedure helps ensure that your new plantings have desirable branch architecture and structural integrity. Proper pruning of specimens when they are young reduces the potential of costly problems and the need for structural support as your landscape matures.
• Appearance and Restoration
  Tree pruning for appearance and restoration is essential for maximizing the beauty of formal plantings and to assist with landscape maintenance. In particular, we advocate aesthetic tree care for mature trees when the characteristic form of your trees has deteriorated.
• Safety
  Tree pruning can protect against storm damage and the danger of falling limbs. This is particularly a concern for trees along pedestrian paths, driveways, and surrounding buildings. Also, we recommend pruning trees with low-hanging branches in certain areas in order to eliminate interference with pedestrian and vehicular traffic. 
• Visual Access
  Increase your landscape's value, and enhance its beauty with vista tree pruning. Vista pruning creates visual access to lakes, valleys or other picturesque views, while maintaining privacy where desired.
