Tree Trimming

Trimming or pruning a tree can assist in improved health, lifespan, and overall enjoyment of the tree for the owner. Pruning a tree requires a comprehensive knowledge of the species, location, and health. Trimming can have widespread, long-lasting adverse effects on your tree and even result in a need for removal. It is for this reason that Tree Services Aurora apply our years of experience to the work that we do and ensure that any pruning or trimming that we do is for the benefit of the tree and does not cause any damage.

Trimming for improved health

Much like smaller plants, trees need to be pruned occasionally to improve their health. Dead or diseased limbs should be removed if the issue has not become widespread. A professional tree doctor can determine whether a simple pruning will assist in stopping the spread of an issue. Branches that are impeding each other should be removed to avoid losing an entire section. Defoliating your tree will also improve the health of your tree, as overcrowding can cut off airflow, allow for too much moisture build-up, or create a sanctuary for pests.

Crown thinning & reduction

Crown thinning is a tricky task, as over-trimming your tree can cause a rapid regrowth of foliage and defeat the purpose. Conversely, under-pruning will result in a wasted effort to thin the crown. Crown thinning is done to allow for a larger amount of light to penetrate the crown. Often this is done when an area on your property requires larger amounts of light, such as your lawn requires. Crown reduction is done when one or more parts of your tree are damaged or weak. This improves the tree’s lifespan and reduces the risk of damage to property as a result of sudden breaks.

Vista prune 

If you own a property with a view, you probably paid for that view. When a tree begins to block or obscure a view, you do not have to have it completely removed in order to regain your vista. A simple call to Tree Services Aurora will have you enjoying your panorama once again, while your tree enjoys the good treatment that you can expect from a professional service like ours!

Clearance prune 

When a tree encroaches on your property or neighboring property, your initial thought may be to remove the tree completely. Instead, if cleared by our professional arborists to do so, you could employ Tree Services Aurora to conduct clearance pruning. This removes the risk of your tree coming into contact with buildings, overhead lines, or anything else that it could damage. There are many other kinds of pruning that can be done on your trees, which is why it is always recommended that you book a consultation with a professional to determine the best route forward for you and the trees on your property. Give us a call on the number above and book a consultation with one of our friendly, professional arborists!
