Family Tree Service is committed to providing high-quality, tailored care, ensuring your trees remain vibrant, safe, and attractive year-round. Let us help you maintain a beautiful and thriving landscape through reliable, professional tree maintenance services.

Pruning trees may be required for a number of reasons. We can help you determine the best solutions to maximize the overall health and beauty of your trees. While keeping in mind that no more than 25% of the foliage should be removed at one time, the following options are available to property owners;

•Removal of limbs which interfere with wires, buildings, gutters, roofs, chimneys, windows, other trees and satellite dishes.
•Removal of dead or weak limbs which pose hazards or may lead to decay; often called ‘deadwood removal’.
•Removal of diseased or insect infested limbs.
•Improve overall structure to lessen wind resistance and reduce the potential for storm damage.
•Removal of branches or thinning to increase light penetration.
•Thin crown for improved air circulation and to deter the spread of pathogens, allowing new growth to form.
•Strategically reduce the height of a tree or raise a tree’s canopy.
•Train young tree to avoid more difficult and expensive pruning projects at a later date.
•Preventative pruning to increase health and vigour of young trees.
•Improve the overall shape or silhouette of a tree.
•Vista pruning for desired views.
