Pruning
PRUNING
Trees are a beneficial part of a property thanks to how beautiful they are, but they are also an important part of the environment. One of their functions is to absorb carbon dioxide and produce oxygen for us to breathe. In order to keep your trees healthy while allowing them to perform their natural tasks, regular tree service is needed. Pruning is one of the maintenance tasks that we use to take care of our client’s trees, and we perform this service regularly. We don’t like to prune too much at once, but it is necessary on an ongoing basis. We use pruning to get rid of dead parts on the tree, shape the existing growth and redirect growth. We also pay close attention to removal of branches that could be a safety risk if they were to fall.
If you have fruit trees that need to be pruned, this can be beneficial when it comes to the amount of fruit that the tree produces in the coming years. The process needs to be done very carefully in order to protect the tree from disease and rot. Our staff is educated on the proper methods of pruning, and we’ll make sure that we take care of your fruit trees so they thrive in the coming seasons.
How Does Tree Pruning Differ from Tree Trimming?
While both processes serve their purpose, tree pruning is used to take care of loose or dead branches that are on your trees. This is done to stimulate more growth. Trimming is something that is done to address overgrowth or trees that need to be shaped more appropriately. It can also be used to remove branches that are too close the a home or building.
Benefits of Pruning Your Trees
Pruning your trees is a great way to promote better health of your trees. Not only do we remove damaged or dead branches, but we remove any branches that may be diseased or infected. We want to prevent the spread of the issue before it takes over the entire tree.
Pruning isn’t necessarily done for aesthetics all the time, but it can improve the look of your tree. Dead branches or branches that are covered with a mold or bacteria will just look unsightly. You should be able to enjoy the look of your yard, especially if you plan on selling soon.
Optimal Sunlight
Pruning a tree allows more sunlight to come into your yard, but sunlight can also gain access to some of the more interior branches of your tree. This allows the tree to grow much larger and healthier. If you have a fruit tree, there may be more fruit than previous years and the fruit may be much larger.
