Tree Pruning & Trimming

Tree Pruning/Trimming

Tree pruning is key to tree life and property maintenance. Tree pruning, also known as trimming, can serve several purposes, including hazard reduction and maintenance.

Hazard reduction rids your tree of branches that compromise the structural integrity of the tree. Most branch breakage and tree collapse during winter storms can be prevented with regular pruning. Here in Michigan, winter storms are inevitable. Protect your trees, your assets, and yourself from damage and injury by having your trees pruned.

Maintenance pruning can make your tree more aesthetically pleasing, while increasing metabolic processes and promoting better health.
