Tree Trimming Experts

While trees are naturally beautiful, especially those in natural settings, trimming adds beauty to how trees look. Landscaping trees particularly need trimming to achieve the desired shape and height. Trimming, in particular, controls the height and horizontal spread of a tree. By professionally trimming your trees, you can design your yard to match your taste.

People often confuse trimming and pruning. Tree trimming and pruning have been used interchangeably but there exists a big difference between them. Trimming involves cutting the tip of the growing shoot to control the trees’ height and lateral spread. Pruning, on the other hand, entails removing excess branches from a tree to encourage penetration. Sometimes branches that crisscross are pruned. The two are common plant maintenance practices that come with many benefits:

Aesthetics – This is derived from a tree with a well-maintained shape. While you are pruning and trimming to achieve aesthetic value, you should still let the tree grow naturally. A carelessly done trimming or pruning can kill your tree.

Safety – As trees grow, some branches die. These dead branches are time bombs as they can fall at any time causing injuries and damage if the trees are close to the house. As a safety precaution, you should always prune any dry branches. Some branches can grow directly to the power lines or any other overhead utility line. Pruning and trimming prevent this.
