Pruning and Removal

Pruning

Pruning is the deliberate removal of tree branches and limbs to achieve a specific objective in the alteration of a tree’s health and form.

Trees may need to be pruned to:
-Remove dead or hazardous branches
-Maintain vehicular, pedestrian, and sight clearance
-Improve the tree structure, e.g. balancing crown weight to avoid future leaning
-Increase light or air penetration
-Improve tree aesthetics

Although basic tree pruning is important for you to do over the life of your trees over time, there are times when a certified Arborist is recommended.

When to call Bigby’s Tree Service:

-The tree cannot be pruned from the ground
-The tree has been identified as hazardous
-The tree is near electrical or other utility lines
-The branch(es) that need to be pruned are large.
