Trimming

Precise Yard Maintenance uses approved pruning methods when trimming trees. Trimming a tree is both science and art. Professional pruning helps protect your investment and enhances the beauty of almost any landscape tree or shrub.

Pruning, like any other skill, requires proper knowledge to achieve success. By making proper pruning cuts in a certain order, the total number of cuts can be greatly reduced.

A professional arborist removes all dead, broken, diseased or problem limbs by cutting them back to a strong lateral branch. An example of problem limbs are, crossing branches, included bark, limbs blocking street signs, etc. Pruning can also help alleviate potentially hazardous situations. Weight reduction on long heavy limbs can reduce the potential of limb failure. Often, removing this material opens the canopy sufficiently so that no further pruning is necessary. Proper pruning can help protect the health of your trees!

We would be more than happy to demonstrate and walk you through proper pruning procedures on your smaller trees, shrubs and fruit trees.
