Deadwood is the prime breeding ground for decay, disease, and insect problems. Removing deadwood is an important pruning objective.
Poorly attached and weak or broken branches are very common.Proper understanding of branch attachment is essential when deciding which branches to remove.
Many large old trees can become hazardous; a trained arborist can evaluate and reduce risks through proper pruning.
Most of us enjoy a good looking tree. Crown cleaning, along with lightening of excessively long braches, can return a tree to its natural beauty.

Pruning Tips:
 When to Prune:
Many trees and shrubs can be pruned at any time. Some trees, American Elm, Apple, Crabapple, and other disease prone tree are best pruned when dormant. Some flowering shrubs, such as Lilac, are best pruned soon after flowering to allow new buds to form.
Improper Pruning:
Poorly made cuts, excessive thinning, topping, or other bad practices can destroy a tree. Always understand why a branch is being pruned before making that cut.
Young Trees:
Corrective pruning of young trees can quickly and easily establish a better-structured tree that will become stronger and require less maintenance in the future.
 We are proud members of the International Society of Arborculture.
