What is Shrub and Tree Pruning?

 Tree pruning is the process of removing dead, dying, or low-hanging branches from a tree. Pruning can have many benefits that include s improving tree health, aesthetic, and overall structure. It can also save your property from potential damage or injury to anyone walking underneath during high winds or heavy snow.

Pruning can be very dangerous and come with many hazards to you, your property, or any bystanders. It should be performed by a certified arborist with the correct climbing gear and equipment to ensure everyone’s safety.

Why is it Important to Have Your Shrubs and Trees Pruned by an Aborist?

Maintaining the health and beauty of the trees can impact their health and your property’s value. It is very important for the tree population. Having a certified arborist prune your trees can help with:

> Health: Branches that are dead or dying can take away from the healthy branches of the tree. Also, this can also reduce the spread of diseases or insects onto surrounding trees.

> Property value: Regular pruning can instantly boost the curb appeal of your property. Pruning shapes the tree to its potential and removes any unwanted branches.

> Space: Tree pruning can remove trees or plants from any areas where they are unwanted. This can help reveal buildings or make room for vehicles, and pedestrians. This can give your property an open feel for visitors.

> Utility Service: Utility lines such as power or telephone lines can also be affected by trees overgrowing. It is best practice to address the issue before it is a problem.
