When is the best time to trim trees in Old Field?

Late fall through early spring is typically best for most tree species in our area. Trees are dormant, which reduces stress and makes it easier to see the branch structure. However, dead or dangerous branches should be removed immediately regardless of season. We avoid trimming during active growth periods in late spring and early summer when trees are most vulnerable to stress. Oak trees specifically should be trimmed in winter to prevent oak wilt disease transmission.

How much does professional tree trimming cost in Old Field?

Tree trimming costs depend on tree size, species, location, and complexity of the work. Small trees might run $200-400, while large mature trees common in Old Field can range from $800-2000 or more. Emergency work and difficult access situations cost more due to increased risk and equipment needs. We provide free estimates that break down exactly what work needs to be done and why, so you understand what you’re paying for before we start.

Can I trim my own trees to save money?

Small branches under 2 inches diameter are generally safe for homeowners to handle with proper tools. Anything larger, higher than you can reach from the ground, or near power lines requires professional equipment and training. Improper cuts can permanently damage trees, and working around large branches is genuinely dangerous. The cost of treating a damaged tree or dealing with property damage usually exceeds the cost of hiring professionals from the start.

How often do trees need professional trimming in this area?

Most mature trees in Old Field benefit from professional assessment every 2-3 years, with actual trimming needed every 3-5 years depending on species and growth rate. Fast-growing trees like willows may need annual attention, while slow-growing oaks might go 5-7 years between major trimming sessions. Dead or damaged branches should be removed immediately when noticed. Regular maintenance prevents small problems from becoming expensive emergencies and keeps trees healthier long-term.

What's the difference between trimming, pruning, and tree cutting?

Tree trimming typically refers to removing overgrown branches for safety and appearance, while pruning is more precise cutting to improve tree health and structure. Tree cutting usually means removing entire trees or major sections. Professional arborists use specific techniques for each situation – crown cleaning removes dead wood, crown thinning reduces density, crown raising clears lower branches, and crown reduction decreases overall size. The right approach depends on your tree’s condition and your property’s needs.

Do you clean up all the branches and debris after trimming?

Complete cleanup is included in every tree trimming job we do. We cut branches into manageable pieces, rake up smaller debris, and haul everything away from your property. You won’t find wood chips in your garden beds or branches scattered around your yard when we’re finished. If you want to keep some wood for firewood or mulch, just let us know before we start and we’ll stack it where you want it instead of hauling it away.
