Trimming vs. Pruning – What’s the Difference?

Trimming focuses on improving aesthetics and clearing space

Pruning targets the long-term health and structural integrity of the tree We perform both services as needed, always with an understanding of tree species, growth patterns, and your goals for the property.

Our Tree Trimming Approach

  1. Site Evaluation – We assess tree health, safety concerns, and goals

  2. Access Planning – Using bucket trucks or climbing specialists where needed

  3. Trimming & Pruning – Removing unwanted limbs with precision

  4. Cleanup – We remove all debris or leave cut wood at your request

  5. Optional Cabling – If structural issues are present, we may recommend tree support systems
