For Appearance, Health, and Safety

It is important to have your tree trimming and pruning performed by a Licensed Tree Expert that follows the proper techniques, required to promote the health of your trees. 
 
Arborview Maryland Tree Service recognizes that “Topping” is an unacceptable pruning practice.
​
Pruning involves the removal of deadwood, damaged limbs and stubs. When performed correctly, it has shown to reduce a tree’s susceptibility to wind and storm damage. Additionally, increasing sunlight to lawn areas. Proper pruning can help maintain a tree's health, safety, and improve the overall aesthetic of the tree and surrounding areas.
​
Types of Pruning:

• Thinning : Opens the crown, reduces weight on branches, maintains shape, improves air movement and increases light through canopy.

• Raising / Elevating: Removal of lower branches, provides clearance.

• Crown Reduction: Properly reduces crown size for clearance and reduces branch weight.
