Tree Crown Cleaning – This common form of pruning involves removing dead, weak, damaged and diseased wood to make way for healthy foliage. Crown cleaning plays a helpful role for maintaining more mature trees because it helps to ensure aging trees remain healthy and safe. Crown cleaning also helps reduce the risk of wind damage to a tree because it eliminates the weakest branches.

Tree Crown Thinning – This type of tree pruning involves the removal of smaller branches that are less than 2 inches in diameter in the upper and outer canopy of the tree. The focus is on removing overgrown branches and stems to decrease weight on the tree’s limbs. When thinning out the upper and outer canopy of the tree it also helps increase air and lightflow, which encourages healthy growth.

Tree Crown Raising – This kind of pruning focuses on removing low hanging growth to create more clearance between the ground and lower branches of the tree. People often request crown raising services when they require more room for people, vehicles, signs or property. Crow raising is also done in order to clear sight lines to improve views and for when people would like more light to penetrate their house or ground beneath the tree.

Tree Crown Reduction – This category of tree pruning involves reducing the trees height and spread by focusing on removing top branches. Tree crown reduction is utilized to reduce tree stress and adjust tree size when a tree outgrows its space. Crown reduction also helps to reduce the effects of shading and light loss.
