On mature trees, pruning is required to remove dead and dying branches to maintain plant health and safety. This pruning type is referred to as cleaning. Research has now documented that thinning, the removal of live branches to reduce density, significantly reduces wind resistance and subsequent storm damage.
Removals are performed to eliminate dead and dying trees and those that have become hazardous and cannot be mitigated by other accepted cultural practices. Removals are also done to eliminate competition so the remaining plants have more light and space to develop. Trees are also removed to allow for new construction, building additions, and to provide clearances with those structures. While it is impossible to totally protect your trees and property from severe storms, there are some basic procedures that can help reduce the risk of damage. Our certified arborists can inspect for defects and conditions that could predispose your trees to failure.
We offer a variety of services to help our commercial customers maintain beautiful, healthy trees and shrubs. Our local arborists can diagnose and treat problems to protect your plants and help ensure safety on your property.
The first priority for arborists caring for older trees on commercial properties is evaluating their structural integrity and providing necessary remedial treatments to reduce the risk of branch, stem, and root failures.
Arborists are trained to identify symptoms of decay and other defects such as weakly attached branches, cracks, and splits indicating imminent failure, poor architecture, dead and hanging branches, and root related defects.
If evaluation indicates the tree represents a high risk of failure, remedial treatments can be developed to reduce that risk.
