Do you want your tree to live a healthy long life and look good along the way?
Other than the soil and nutrients from the very ground that your trees grow from, tree trimming and shaping is one of the best things that you could do for the health and appearance of your trees. When you leave your tree untrimmed, branches grow wildly and at times grow into areas that we'd prefer them not to be, such as dangling over your driveway adding to your to-do list for cleaning the fallen leaves or fruits & seeds that will fall. Or an even worse scenario for not maintaining your trees are when they eventually grow into nearby electrical lines causing a serious fire hazard. We have seen it more times than we'd like. Tree maintenance is not only good for your trees' health and appearance, but for your safety as well. We have an experienced team ready to help you with any questions that you may have. No question or job is to big or small. Give us a call today or leave your question here in our contact form. You'll get a no-commitment consultation with one of our trained team members. |
Your trees give back. Show them some love.
Especially in Johnson City, tree maintenance is a must since we are blessed with so many beautiful trees and landscapes. They give us fresh air, natural shade, some bear fruit, and are really just plain old beautiful to look at. The least we could do is care for our trees. Proper tree pruning, tree shaping, and tree care will do wonders for their health and make your property look more well taken care of. You could think of tree pruning like a haircut for them. It allows your trees to feed off sunlight and moisture, and really just helps it breathe again. |
TREE TRIMMINGTree trimming is one of the most common requests we get in the Tri-Cities Tennessee area. This is probably because, well you guessed it, East Tennessee is covered with a luscious tree landscape.
Our customers often mistake tree trimming for tree shaping or tree pruning, but they share a few key differences. The purpose of tree trimming plays a vital component in your overall tree maintenance plan. Although the main goal is usually to improve your tree's health, the appearance may also improve as a result (tree shaping and pruning takes this to another level). Also, tree clipping may be done for safety reasons, for example, if your tree is touching power lines. Not sure if your tree needs to be cut or removed? Give us a call for a free consultation. |
TREE SHAPINGTree shaping and pruning are forms of tree trimming but have a few unique characteristics. Arborists are not always needed for these types of jobs. In fact, for smaller trees and shrubs, most able-bodied people would shape and prune small trees on their own.
While tree pruning leans towards the removal of dead or unnecessary branches, tree shaping is done almost always for aesthetic visual purposes. removal or dead or loose or infected branches so that the shrub can flourish properly. It is also done to give a particular shape to the shrub for aesthetic purposes. If you, for any reason, are unable to perform tree shaping or pruning on your own, give us a call and we would be more than happy to assist you with your needs. No job is too big or small for our team. |
TREE TOPPINGTree topping is exactly what you are likely thinking. Simply put, it is when you cut the top of a tree off entirely. The top of the tree is pretty much reduced to a stump.
Normally, this service is not the first tree care solution that we would encourage. The reason why is that tree topping results in a weaker and less healthy tree overall, with unstable limbs and an unnatural appearance. The newly shocked tree would be at risk of decaying more rapidly, making it less stable overall. There are a few circumstances where tree topping may be performed, such as if the tree needs to be immediately removed from under a power line, or if a storm is coming and there is a risk that it would fall on a neighboring structure. These situations can be prevented with regular tree care maintenance early on. |

FAQs
what are the signs my tree may be unhealthy?
Regularly trimming your tree can actually help with its' health. You will also give it a chance to be looked at a bit closer, where you can notice things that you would not have noticed previously. There are certain indicators that a tree may be fighting a disease or an insect problem. While some may be more obvious than others, here are a few hints:
While this is a good start, contacting a professional arborist will leave you with a much better idea as well as a plan to follow moving forward.
- Fewer branches and leaves than normal
- Visible roots (not always the case - may vary by species)
- Missing bark (or tunnels & holes in it)
- Leaf blight, spotting, and blotching
- Tunnels appearing in the bark
- Carved out areas in the wood resembling trails
While this is a good start, contacting a professional arborist will leave you with a much better idea as well as a plan to follow moving forward.
do you remove the leftover tree trimmings as well?
Yes! Aside from your freshly trimmed trees, you'd barely notice we were there! After tree trimming and tree removal, we give the option to chip and transport all the leftover branches and wood that we service on your property. We have access to heavy equipment such as wood chippers, flat-beds, and big trucks to help with the process. We will do everything we can to ensure your satisfaction after every job.
how often are trees trimmed?
The typical tree trimming job allows for an average of three years growth between each trimming. Of course, there are varying circumstances that would influence this. Both for your safety, and the safety of others, we trim more aggressively when your trees are, for example, near power lines or by your home. Like most jobs, it is best to have our team come to your property to scout out the situation so you have a risk-free estimate and solid plan moving forward.
what is the best season to trim trees?
We trim and remove trees all year around. There are a variety of circumstances that would require either a trim or removal. Surprisingly, winter is a bit more popular time of year for tree trimming, because the tree growth is slowed. If you are unsure about whether to trim now or wait, give us a call to help you clear any confusion.
