Portland Tree Triming Service

Before we begin a pruning job, you will be provided with a quote of what we think would be best for the health of your trees. That quote may include any of the following services:

• Hazard Pruning

  • Our team of experts will identify hazards that need to be mitigated. We will remove dead, dying, diseased, and weak branches for the health of your trees and to avoid situations that require emergency removal.​

• Thinning

  • This is the selective removal of branches to increase light penetration, improve air movement, and lessen weight to reduce stress on the tree structure and curate an environment conducive to the health of the tree and other plants in the area. Strategic thinning has the benefit of improving the look of a tree, as well.​

• Elevating

  • Elevating involves the removal of lower branches to provide greater clearance from the ground, which may be needed in an area with traffic or to encourage other growth further up the tree.​

• Crown Reduction

  • Crown reduction decreases the size of the profile size of a tree using proper cuts, thereby preserving appearance, health, and structure.​

• View Clearing

  • Selective removal of limbs in the crown to allow for a specific view – a great alternative to tree topping​.

• Pollarding

  • This technical term refers to a less common pruning technique that involves the yearly removal of all new growth. Pollarding has the effect of restricting a tree’s height.​

• Fruit Tree Pruning

  • There are several reasonable techniques utilized for pruning fruit trees, each with a very different outcome. A benefit of a Portland tree pruning service is that the team members understand how your trees will respond to each method of trimming and can adapt their technique depending on your objective. Our team will get to know your tree and what you’re hoping to achieve so that they can provide the most appropriate course of trimming.​
