Tree Pruning & Trimming

Pruning your shrubs and trees is the horticultural practice that promotes plant health care, vigor, appearance, and safety. Depending on the plant, pruning and trimming typically occur during the winter and summer to remove dead or dying limbs. Structural pruning ensures the plant's future viability is preserved. Aesthetic pruning encourages flower and fruit development. Lynch Landscape believes in hand-pruning shrubs and ornamental trees, not shearing, to maintain plant form, density, and size. Annual pruning is recommended as part of a standard maintenance and estate care plan.

Tree Pruning

Lynch Landscape & Tree Service, Inc. understands that tree pruning and trimming are essential to healthy, safe, and structurally sound trees. There are several important reasons for tree pruning services, and there are also different types of pruning and trimming practices.

We strongly recommend tree pruning for the reasons below:

-Thinning tree to reduce size and weight
-Removing weak, dying, or dead limbs to increase safety
-Improve shape or clearance to ensure trees are away from the house
-Cleaning of branches and structure to allow more light on lawn

Our Certified MA Arborists can also assist you with the different types of pruning.

Crown Cleaning and Thinning

Cleaning a tree's crown can include pruning away dead limbs or dying and diseased branches. Every tree is different in size and needs, and one of our tree specialists can provide a free consultation to inform you of your options for crown cleaning.

Thinning out touching, rubbing, and crossing limbs can help reduce the number of branch structures that impede light from reaching your lawn. Thinning a tree by pruning or trimming can also help with safety to ensure the wind resistance in a tree canopy is reduced.

Prune Deadwood

One of the most common practices utilized for tree pruning is pruning the deadwood out of a tree and the tree's canopy. Tree services typically include pruning the dying, diseased, or dead limbs as it helps promote a healthy and safe tree.

Pruning services are also performed on trees as a preventative measure to minimize storm damage.

Structural Pruning

Generally speaking, clearing and pruning branches away from a house is necessary to provide safe clearance. A professional service should be used to avoid harming the tree and keep it structurally sound.

Vista Pruning

Selective tree pruning can enhance views of the scenery around your house or improve sight visibility when entering and leaving your driveway. Vista pruning typically requires a professional to ensure all the proper cuts are made and the trees maintain their current health, vigor, and structure.
