Tree Trimming & Cutting Lebanon PA

Tree Removal Services in Lebanon PA using an orange crane for tree removal
Tree trimming, tree cutting, and tree pruning are part of a routine maintenance you should establish to keep your landscape looking healthy. People have various reasons for pruning and trimming trees. The main reasons include health, safety, and simply because it’s more aesthetically pleasing. Tree pruning, trimming, and cutting done wrong, however, can have adverse consequences including damaging your trees. Tree pruning can contribute to the overall health of your greenery. If a tree is infected, pruning or trimming off the rotted areas helps prevent the spread of disease within the tree. 

Safety is another reason why people resort to tree trimming and cutting. It can be hazardous to have broken branches that could fall at any moment in your yard. Especially if you have kids. If you have a driveway and there are branches that obstruct your view as a driver, for example, trees hanging too low, that could be potentially hazardous as well. If there are branches in too close proximity with utility poles or telephone lines and cables, this is an issue.  

After pruning, the living crown to tree ratio is two-thirds to optimize a freshly pruned tree. If branches are shaped like a “V” this is a sign they need pruning because they are weak. Again its important to prune away the dead branches to keep your trees healthy. If branches are shaped like a “U” then the do not need trimming. Often scarring is a concern for our customers but it is less noticeable on younger branches so call us as soon as you see signs that pruning needs done. Or call one of our Arborists to schedule a free consultation. Maintenance on young branches is easily accomplished. We also recommend tree trimming during their dormant seasons. It’s ideal to NOT wait until it NEEDS to be trimmed but to take care of it consistently.

Same with regular tree removal, tree trimming requires different techniques for different situations. A standard three-cut technique should be used when dealing with long stems. With this technique, you make the first cut on the stem’s side which is facing away from the branch you want to keep. The second cut occurs slightly above the branch’s ridge on its inner crotch zone. Lastly, the third cut is made by cutting through a stem parallel to the branch’s ridge which completely knocks out the stub. It’s typical to locate the branch collar before doing any cutting to calibrate your position with the branch you want to prune. This branch collar is located on the bottom base and emerges from stem tissue. Once you locate the collar, find the branch ridge. You always want to cut an angle down and away from the stem and external of the branch bark ridge.  Leave the process up to us! Call us today for a free quote!
