Comprehensive pruning solutions for every tree care need
Selective removal of branches to reduce density while maintaining the tree's natural shape. Improves light penetration and reduces wind resistance.
Remove lower branches to provide clearance for buildings, vehicles, pedestrians, and views. Essential for street trees and driveways.
Reduce tree height or spread by pruning back to lateral branches. Used when trees have outgrown their space or to reduce weight on heavy limbs.
Remove dead, dying, or diseased branches that pose safety risks and attract pests. Critical for preventing property damage and tree decline.
Trim branches away from structures, power lines, roofs, and gutters. Prevents damage and maintains safe distances from buildings.
Train young trees to develop strong structure and proper form. Early intervention prevents future problems and extends tree lifespan.
Timing matters for optimal tree health and growth
December - February: Ideal for most trees. Trees are dormant, wounds heal quickly in spring, and it's easier to see tree structure without leaves.
June - August: Good for corrective pruning and removing dead branches. You can see exactly what needs attention. Avoid heavy pruning during hot weather.
March-May & September-November: Avoid heavy pruning. Trees are actively growing or preparing for dormancy. Some species (oaks, elms) should never be pruned in spring due to disease risk.

Tree trimming costs typically range from $250-$1,500 depending on tree size, species, location, and amount of work needed. Small trees (under 30 feet) average $250-$500, medium trees (30-60 feet) cost $500-$900, and large trees (over 60 feet) range from $900-$1,500+. Emergency services, difficult access, or extensive pruning may cost more. We provide free estimates so you know exactly what to expect.
Most mature trees benefit from professional trimming every 3-5 years. Young trees may need annual pruning for the first 5-7 years to develop proper structure. Fast-growing species or trees near structures might require more frequent attention (every 2-3 years). We recommend having your trees evaluated by a certified arborist annually to catch problems early. Dead, diseased, or hazardous branches should be removed immediately, regardless of when the tree was last trimmed.
Small ground-level branches can be safely trimmed by homeowners, but we strongly recommend professional help for anything requiring a ladder, chainsaw, or work above 10 feet. Improper pruning can permanently damage trees, and tree work is one of the most dangerous DIY activities—averaging 80,000 injuries annually. Professional arborists have the training, equipment, and insurance to work safely and properly. Incorrect cuts can lead to disease, decay, and structural failure that may take years to become apparent.
Yes! Complete cleanup and debris removal are included in our tree trimming services. We chip smaller branches on-site, cut larger wood into manageable pieces (which you're welcome to keep for firewood), and haul everything away. We rake the area clean and leave your property looking better than when we arrived. If you'd like to keep the wood chips for mulch or the logs for firewood, just let us know—we're happy to leave them neatly stacked for your use.
When done correctly by certified arborists, tree trimming improves tree health and doesn't cause harm. We follow ANSI A300 pruning standards, making cuts at the proper angle and location to promote rapid healing. Trees naturally compartmentalize wounds, sealing them off to prevent decay. However, improper pruning—like topping, removing too much at once, or making flush cuts—can seriously damage trees. That's why it's essential to work with trained professionals who understand tree biology and proper pruning techniques.
Tree trimming (or pruning) is selective removal of branches to improve health, structure, and appearance while maintaining the tree's natural form. Topping is an outdated, harmful practice that indiscriminately cuts back large branches to stubs, leaving the tree disfigured and vulnerable. Topped trees often develop weak regrowth, become hazardous, and have shortened lifespans. Professional arborists never top trees—we use proper crown reduction techniques that preserve tree health and structure. If someone offers to "top" your trees, find a different company.
