What is Tree Pruning?
So, what exactly is tree pruning? Not to be confused with tree lopping or tree trimming – similar but distinctly different tree services – tree pruning is the process by which you remove unwanted branches from the tree. This could be because they’re growing in the wrong direction (which could lead to structural issues), or perhaps because the branches aren’t healthy. There are a number of reasons that pruning processes might be required, but whatever the reason, our tree service providers will be happy to carry out these procedures for you.
 
Clearing Deadwood
One of the reasons that a tree pruning intervention might be necessary is when your tree has a number of dead branches. These can ruin the aesthetic of the tree, and they also prevent new growth that might otherwise be taking place. Of course, not all of the branches that will need to be removed will be dead. Some of them might be removed because they’ve become infected or diseased. Tree pruning can act as a protective mechanism in this sense, as the compromised branches could upset the entirety of the tree if they’re allowed to remain as they are. Tree pruning takes these branches out of the equation, guaranteeing the safety of the tree going forward.
 
Protecting Your Property
Another common reason that you might want to carry out regular tree pruning service is that you might have a problematic tree that keeps affecting the other aspects of your property. Trees aren’t always difficult in this way, but sometimes they can begin to encroach on buildings, utility structures, and even other plants. In those cases, sometimes it’s possible to prune away the responsible branches, eliminating the problem altogether. If this is a major concern and pruning isn’t proving effective, a tree removal might become necessary.
 
Affordable Service
We do our utmost to ensure that our tree pruning services are as affordable as they can possibly be. We understand that money might be tight, and that there’s always the temptation to neglect spending on such services to protect your bank balance, but this isn’t wise when it comes to the health of your trees. Avoid the neglect of your property by using a value-packed tree pruning service like ours – you surely won’t regret doing so.
