What are my pruning options?
Depending on the job, your pruning options include:
Cleaning
Cleaning is the removal of dying and diseased branches from the crown of a tree.
Thinning
Thinning selects specific branches to improve the structure and increase air movement through the tree.
Raising
Raising removes lower branches to provide clearance for structures and buildings.
Reduction
Reduction reduces the size of a tree to maintain its form and integrity.
Why is stump grinding necessary?
Stump grinding is a specialized process to remove stumps on your property. After a tree has been cut to ground level, the stump is ground into small wood pieces that create mulch, which can be reused in your grass and soil. Rather than digging up a large root system attached to the stump, grinding it down allows it to be covered with dirt until it decays.
What should I look for in a tree company?
You should look for arborists that have years of experience in the industry. Ask about the equipment they’ll be using and how they can prevent potential damage to your yard.
