About Tree Trimming & Pruning

The best way to keep your trees looking healthy is to prune them on a regular basis. You can extend the life expectancy of trees through proper trimming and pruning. This reduces the possibility of branch failure too.

Our professionals at Southern Exposure Tree Service take the time to trim your trees properly for consistent growth. We bring the proper equipment and expertise to get the job done safely while taking excellent care of your property.

For most trees, it is better to hire a professional company to help with the process of removing dead limbs and pruning back branches. Branches overhanging a structure could easily fall and damage your home, and this kind of work is best left for the professionals. Our professionals have been trained to complete all jobs safely and efficiently. We have trucks, cranes, and other specialized equipment to get to the most hard-to-reach areas.

Reasons for Trimming or Pruning Trees

Reduce the height of the tree. This may be necessary to save a tree from removal because of utility line clearance. We can prune back the branches and secondary branches to more manageable levels.

Raising and elevating. This involves eliminating some of the lower branches of the tree. This keeps the branches out of harm’s way of pedestrians, buildings, and cars.

Thinning. The structure of a tree is important. We will selectively remove branches to increase light penetration and to stabilize the structure of the tree.

Cleaning. While the tree itself may be healthy, certain branches may be diseased, poorly attached, or dead, and removing unnecessary and stressed areas of the tree can help extend the life of the tree.
