Call Arbor Barber Tree Service, certified arborists, for all your "Restorative Pruning Tree Services!"

Have you ever seen a tree that has been hedge trimmed for years?  Each cut that is made tree mid-stem results in either branch death or decay, or the growth of multiple suckers or water sprouts.  When this happens year after year, the result is a very thick canopy with a large amount of dead wood that is much more susceptible to disease and has a shortened life span.  Proper tree pruning cuts made between 1/8" and 1/4" away from the tree branch bark collar (the thickened area at the base of a branch) help promote the formation of woundwood.

Arbor Barber Tree Service arborists can help restore trees like this back to their natural growth habits and increase the health and lifespan by removing the dead wood and decaying stubs and selectively removing branches.  It is also important not to remove too much of the canopy at any one time.  A rule of thumb is not to exceed 25%, but this factor can change in regard to species, climate, age, and time of year.  We will let you know how many times the stressed tree must be pruned in successive seasons, and remove the right amount of foliage.

Wind, snow, ice, or mechanical damage can result in a tree with a dramatically altered shape and structure.  We can inspect these trees and assess the possibility of restoration.  If hazards can be mitigated and the tree can be pruned to preserve structural integrity and health, removal might not be necessary.

At Arbor Barber Tree Service, our goal in all of our tree service operations is to perform the job safely, efficiently, and provide thorough clean up with minimal impact to the surrounding vegetation and area.
