Tree Trimming

Most trimming calls are about a tree that has grown into something: limbs rubbing the shingles, a canopy shading the whole back lawn, branches hanging over the driveway low enough to hit the truck, or a crown so dense the wind has nowhere to go through it. We trim to give the house, the roof and the sidewalk their clearance back, thin crowns so light and air get through, and take the weight off long limbs before a storm does it for you. Cuts are made at the collar so the tree seals them — not stubbed off, not topped.
