What's the difference between trimming and pruning?
Trimming focuses on shaping and aesthetic maintenance, while pruning targets tree health by removing diseased, damaged, or crossing branches. Both techniques promote proper growth in South Lake Tahoe's mountain climate.

Do you clean up the trimmings?
Yes, we remove all cut branches, twigs, and debris from your property. We use wood chippers for smaller material and haul away larger branches completely.

Can trimming help with tree safety issues?
Proper trimming removes weak, dead, or overextended branches that could fall during storms. Crown reduction and canopy thinning reduce wind resistance and structural stress.

Well-maintained trees add significant value to your property while reducing safety risks from falling branches or storm damage. Plan your seasonal tree maintenance with our arborist team.
