Benefits of Having Your Trees Pruned

Pruning is important for healthy trees. The curb appeal of your home or business will depend on how healthy the trees are. If you are considering tree pruning but are not unsure if it is worth, here are some of the top benefits of the service:

• Health 

Tree pruning is important in maintaining the health of your tree. When dead, dying or diseased branches are removed, this helps to prevent the further spread of decay. Tree trimming and pruning will also improve sun exposure. It also helps to promote the growth of new and healthy branches and leaves.

• Appearance

Pruning can help to improve a tree’s look. In most cases, the overgrown and hanging branches will have an ugly look that can hurt the commercial image of your property. When a tree is well-maintained, this will leave a positive image and will show your potential customers that you care about the quality of the company.

• Sunlight 

When trees are pruned, the adjacent plants will receive ample sunlight. Overgrown trees will shade areas below them making the area unsuitable for planting. When branches are removed, the existing, as well as new plants, will thrive below a tree. 

• Minimize risk

Tree pruning will help to reduce the risk of accidents. If trees are not pruned in the right way, they become a risk to the nearby power lines. This is not only hazardous but it can result in power outages. Hanging branches will also be a threat to buildings below them, especially when the weather is stormy.

• Shape

Tree pruning Elk Grove can help to shape trees. It will result in a good structure of the branches when the tree is young. It will also compensate for the loss of root. When you add new trees to residential or commercial property and prune them, you can be assured of a beautiful shape.

When To Properly Prune A Tree

Many homeowners think that tree pruning Elk Grove is a simple DIY task that they can do on their own. This is not the case. If you are to ensure the good health of your trees, pruning is best left to the professionals. 

​The pruning time will depend on the reason for doing it. Light pruning and removing deadwood can be done at any time. Most of the routine pruning is meant to get rid of weak, diseased or dead limbs and this can be done at any given time of the year without any negative effects on the tree.

Other types of tree trimming include: 

• Winter pruning. A common practice is to prune during dormancy. This'll cause new growth to burst out vigorously in spring. If this is your goal, you should contact us to prune your trees during winter.
• Summer pruning. If your goal is to direct growth by slowing branches without dwarfing the tree’s growth, you should carry out pruning after seasonal growth.  You can also contact us to prune during summer to correct broken trees and defective limbs easily.
• Pruning to enhance flowering. If you have trees in your compound that tend to bloom during spring, you should contact us to prune after flowers have faded. Trees, as well as shrubs that tend to flower from mid to the late summer, need to be pruned in winter as well as early spring.
