We keep trees in check, but as arborists we do so in a way that promotes their healthy growth. Just taking a chainsaw to a tree growing in a way you don’t want is a recipe for problems further down the line. For example where once it was considered perfectly acceptable to ‘lop’ trees by cutting down parts of the main stem to leave stubs we know now that this can stunt trees, or encourage decay and fungi that can spread to other trees. We don’t lop trees. Instead, we prune by removing the right amount of crown at the right times and at the right places. This allows you to get the tree shape you want and encourages healthy tree growth. This approach is the foundation of everything we do, even tree removal and stump grinding. We will always try to preserve your property, but we will also do right by the trees. It’s in everyone’s best interests.
