TREE CARE & MAINTENANCE SERVICES

---

As our trees grow in whichever direction they wish, the tree service of pruning must be done to ensure that they stay healthy, stay out of the way of danger, and provide stable structures.  Pruning is basically like getting a physical for humans where we get a check-up and remove or heal anything that is causes issues.
 
In older, more mature, trees we can accomplish a successful pruning operation by removing any dead or soon to be dead branches to maintain a healthy tree.  Think of this like cutting off split ends of your hair; by removing those we are able to provide a healthier growth for the future.  We can also call this a tree cleaning.  Think about it this way, by thinning down branches and removing a lot of their weight or density, we can significantly reduce the risk of these becoming weapons in a storm.  When large storms hit with large winds, these heavier, most dense branches can cause significant storm damage to your cars, home, or business.  Through pruning, we are able to provide a safer tree for you during storms as it creates less wind resistance and less danger to cause damage. Our Arborists know exactly what they are looking towards when finding trees that need a good pruning and are more than capable of properly thinning them down to a safe level.
​

We attempt to leave as many interior branches as pruning should be done and concentrated to the outer layers of your tree where the weight lies.  This area of pruning is also called the crown.  If you have a heavy or dense crown, you definitely want to get a tree pruning service in Portland to come out and resolve the potential dangers it is creating.​
​

​Alongside thinning of the branches, sometimes we need to shorten the actual length of the tree branch to improve the overall shape and structure of your tree.  This is creating a healthy structure while also preventing any dangerous, storm situations from happening.  Another process we do, called raising, is done on lower branches to help increase the amount of light shining through to your property.  This is beneficial for you as it assists in your grass and ground cover area receiving more light and allowing for better growth.
