Trained professionals in the field
understand how each tree species will react to different
types of treatments. Most regular maintenance pruning
can be done at any time of the year.
|
| Crown Clean-out:
The
removal of dead, dying, intersecting, weakly attached
branches and water sprouts from a tree's canopy. Crown
clean-out is the most popular of our maintenance
procedures.
Crown Elevation:
Removal
of the lower limbs of a tree in order to provide
clearance for driveways, walkways, and buildings.
Cabling/Bolting:
Involves the installation of high strength cables and/or
threaded rod to increase structural integrity in trees.
Crown Reduction:
Pruning back leaders to lateral
branches to reduce height and/or width of tree. In most
cases, this procedure is only done as a last resort to
prevent complete removal of the tree.
