Why trim

Trees that go untrimmed start to cause problems: branches rubbing the roof, gutters full of leaves, and dead limbs that can fall on a car or a person. Regular trimming takes care of that, and removing dead and crossing branches is good for the tree as well.

What we do

The goal of a trim is a tree that is safe and balanced, not one that’s been cut back as far as possible. Depending on the tree, that means:

  • Cutting branches back from the house, roof and screen enclosure
  • Raising the canopy over the driveway and sidewalk
  • Thinning heavy sections so the tree carries less weight
  • Removing dead wood and broken or hanging limbs

We do most trimming from the bucket truck, which lets us reach the right branch and make a clean cut.

Timing

Late winter and spring, before storm season, is a good time to have large trees trimmed. Dead wood and long, heavy limbs are usually the first things to break in high wind. See when to trim before hurricane season.

Cleanup

We pick up everything we cut. That includes clearing the roof if anything landed on it, raking the lawn and clearing the driveway.

Common questions

How often should my trees be trimmed?

It depends on the tree and where it is. A fast-growing tree over the roof needs attention more often than a shade tree out in the yard. We'll look at yours and tell you what it needs.

Do you trim trees for condos and HOAs?

Yes. We trim for condo associations and common grounds as well as homeowners.

Do you trim palms?

Yes. See our palm tree trimming page for details.
