When plant growth begins to endanger itself or surrounding structures it is time for corrective pruning.

Corrective pruning is a horticultural practice that controls the direction and thickness that a plant grows.

Thinning a tree or large shrub allows light to penetrate the plant for effectively, leading to a healthier plant and a healthier landscape. For large trees, corrective pruning can be even more important.

Deadwooding, prevents insects and disease from destroying your tree. It allows it to grow in a healthier direction and can prevent the tree from causing damage to your home after a storm or windy day.

By getting a professional to assess your trees and apply corrective pruning, you can create a beautiful landscape that won’t be hazardous to your home or property.

Thinning your tree is not simply a matter of cutting branches. Knowing when to thin a tree is as important as knowing how to do it, and our experts know both.

Every cut in a round of thinning can be beneficial to a tree, but even a few inches off can permanently wound a tree and leave it open to infection.

Dormant trimming is the process of performing routine maintenance pruning on trees and shrubs at a time when they are not actively growing. Elevating low hanging branches, removing damaged or broken limbs, and creating space between structures and the landscaping can all be done during late Fall and Winter. Routine pruning practices can be used, but plants can also withstand more dramatic pruning at this time of so it’s also a good time to address shrubs that are growing into walks and paths or that are growing above windows creating a safety concern.

Shrub trimming is one of those homeowner tasks that a lot of people avoid.
