Most trees should be trimmed every one to three years, depending on species, age, and exposure to wind. Regular trimming helps reduce storm damage and supports healthy growth.
Tree trimming removes weak, dead, or overextended branches that are often prone to failure during storms. This reduces the risk of property damage during heavy rain and wind events.
Professional trimming includes removing deadwood, thinning dense canopies, improving clearance, and correcting structural issues. Proper cuts help trees grow stronger and live longer.
Tree trimming manages size, shape, and safety, while pruning focuses on tree health and disease prevention. Both services often overlap in residential tree care.
Late winter and early spring are ideal for many species, though some trees benefit from summer or fall trimming. Timing depends on tree type and specific goals.
