Prune it right, once. Not butchered, not topped.

Bad pruning ruins trees for decades. Our climbers work to ISA-A300 standards — no topping, no lion-tailing, no flush cuts. Just a healthier, safer, better-shaped tree.

What's included

  • Structural pruning plan from a certified arborist
  • Deadwood, crossing, and hazard limbs removed
  • Canopy raise and clearance from structures / lines
  • Full brush haul and cleanup

What drives the price

  • Tree size
    Canopy access time drives the price more than trunk diameter.
  • Scope
    A full structural prune is different from a clearance trim.
  • Access
    Bucket-truck reachable jobs are faster than pure climb.
A real scenario

A 100-year-old sycamore in Clayton

Owner wanted the whole crown 'shaped.' Our arborist walked her through what shaping actually means for a mature sycamore — clearance, deadwood, and structural cuts only. Job took half the day. Tree will thank her for another 30 years.

Frequently asked

Do you top trees?+

No. Topping is arboricultural malpractice. If you've been quoted a 'topping' job, get another opinion — probably from us.

When is the best time to prune?+

Depends on species. Oaks late fall through winter to avoid oak wilt. Most other species: dormant season is ideal, but hazard work happens whenever needed.
