Based on your requirements, we’ll suggest you one or more of the following techniques:

Maintenance Pruning

Often, tree branches reach roofs, gutters, power lines, and fence lines, causing various hindrances to people. With maintenance pruning, you can prevent tree branches from growing towards building structures. Our experts will make sure that the trees remain harmless and maintain good health and shape for a long time.

Weight Reduction

If the branches and stems become heavier or overextended, the tree may lose its natural shape and balance. This is where weight reduction (branch-end) pruning can help. By shortening overextended branches, the weight on the tree will reduce, and eventually, it will retain its natural shape and balance. 

Deadwood and Hazardous Branch Removals

Branch failure is often caused by dead or damaged tree branches. These branches not only pose a threat to the tree’s health but are also a serious safety risk for human beings and animals. 

Formative Pruning

Young trees (aging between the second and fourth season after plantation) require formative pruning to ensure they reach their full potential. This technique helps younger trees achieve the best shape, canopy coverage, and overall health. 

Formative pruning involves removing or reducing defects, for example:

• Crossing branches
• Included stems
• Co-dominant stems
• Overextended (or heavy) branches
• Epicormic growth

Canopy-Related Pruning Techniques

Canopy Thinning

It’s a multi-purpose technique that creates a more open canopy by removing duplicate branches or crossing branches. It enhances sunlight penetration. Canopy thinning is effective for trees grown in restricted spaces. Moreover, if there are plants or vegetation under the tree, this is the right technique to use. 

Canopy Uplifting

You can resolve the problem of low canopy above the ground or structures by uplifting the lowest branches of the tree. Canopy uplifting is suitable for trees that may cause hindrance for pedestrians, houses and vehicles. 

Canopy Reduction

If you want to reduce the overall spread and size of the canopy without compromising on its natural shape, utilize canopy reduction pruning. If the trees are becoming too large with respect to their surroundings or are too bulky, canopy reduction is the best solution.
