Here's How We Handle Your Trees

We start with a thorough assessment of your trees and property. Our arborist identifies which branches need removal, spots potential hazards, and explains exactly what work needs to be done before we touch anything.

The actual trimming follows proper arboricultural standards – we’re not just cutting branches randomly. Each cut is made at the right angle and location to promote healthy growth while removing the problematic areas that concern you.

Cleanup is part of the job, not an extra charge. We remove all debris, chip what can be chipped, and leave your property cleaner than we found it. You get the results without the mess or hassle of dealing with piles of branches.

What's Included in Professional Tree Trimming

You get a complete tree health evaluation along with the trimming work. We identify diseased or damaged branches, check for pest issues, and spot structural problems before they become expensive emergencies.

Our trimming includes crown cleaning to remove dead and weak branches, crown thinning for better light penetration, and crown raising to clear buildings and walkways. We also handle any necessary cabling or bracing for trees with structural concerns.

Emergency tree service is available when storms hit Rocky Point. We understand that fallen trees and damaged limbs can’t wait for regular business hours, especially when they’re blocking driveways or threatening power lines.

When is the best time to trim trees in Rocky Point?

Late fall through early spring is typically ideal for most tree species in our area. Trees are dormant, which reduces stress and allows for better healing. However, dead or hazardous branches should be removed immediately regardless of season. Some species like maples and birches are best trimmed in late summer to avoid excessive sap bleeding. We assess each tree individually because timing can vary based on species, health, and specific circumstances. Emergency situations obviously can’t wait for optimal timing.
Tree trimming costs depend on tree size, complexity, and accessibility. Small trees typically range from $200-500, medium trees $500-800, and large trees $800-1500 or more. Factors affecting price include tree height, branch density, proximity to structures, and disposal requirements. We provide detailed written estimates after evaluating your specific trees and property. Emergency work and difficult access situations may cost more, but we explain all pricing upfront. Most homeowners find professional trimming costs far less than potential property damage from neglected trees.
Small branches under 2 inches diameter are generally safe for homeowners to handle with proper tools. However, anything requiring a ladder, chainsaw, or near power lines should be left to professionals. Improper cuts can damage tree health, create hazards, or lead to expensive problems later. Tree work is also physically dangerous – falls and equipment accidents send many DIYers to the hospital each year. Professional trimming often costs less than you’d expect and includes proper equipment, insurance coverage, and expertise that protects both you and your trees.
Most mature trees benefit from professional evaluation every 2-3 years, with trimming as needed based on growth and health. Fast-growing species may need attention more frequently, while slow-growing trees might go longer between services. Young trees often require annual trimming to establish proper structure. Storm-prone areas like Rocky Point may need more frequent hazard assessments. Dead or damaged branches should be removed immediately whenever noticed. We recommend annual inspections to catch problems early, even if major trimming isn’t needed every year.
Professional tree services take extensive precautions to protect your property during trimming work. We use drop zones, rigging systems, and careful planning to control where branches fall. Sensitive areas like gardens, patios, and driveways are protected with tarps or plywood. Our crews are trained in proper techniques to minimize impact on surrounding plants and structures. Any unavoidable minor damage is typically covered by our insurance. We also coordinate with homeowners about access routes and timing to minimize disruption to daily routines and property use.
Complete cleanup is included in our tree trimming service. We remove all cut branches, leaves, and debris from your property. Larger wood pieces can be cut into firewood lengths and left if you prefer, or removed entirely – your choice. We chip smaller branches on-site when possible and haul away all materials. The only thing we leave behind are healthier, safer trees. Some companies charge extra for cleanup, but we consider it part of doing the job right. Your property should look better after we’re done, not like a disaster zone.
