When to prune

Trimming focuses on removing branches that are dead, diseased, broken, crossing or growing into homes, walkways and power lines. Done well, pruning improves the structure and long-term health of a tree while reducing risk to your property.

Topping is not the answer. Cutting large limbs back to stubs can seriously harm a tree, leading to decay, weakly attached new growth and long-term decline. An arborist can help determine the proper pruning approach for the species and the goals of the job.

  • Dead and diseased branches
