Tree trimming and pruning is a science and an art form

Tree trimming and tree pruning services are the cornerstone to any successful tree care program. It is critical to sustaining your tree’s health, stimulating growth and retaining its natural appearance, but if you try to trim your trees yourself, you could end up trimming incorrectly, causing serious damage to your beloved asset.

Pruning and trimming is a science as well as an art form. The science involves a deep understanding of tree biology, recognizing plant flaws and skillfully eliminating or minimizing defects without hindering the tree’s growth or causing irreparable damages. The art form is masterfully trimming and pruning by removing proper deadwood that aesthetically shapes your tree to enhance the beauty of your landscape.

Tree Removal Service

Tree removal is not a service we like to emphasize, but it is a very necessary part of arboriculture and one that we execute professionally and safely. Our goal is, and has always been, to provide services that keep trees healthy, but there are instances when removal is the best alternative for the landscape and homeowner.

Tree removals are performed to eliminate dead and dying trees as well as those that have become hazardous. Removals can also be useful in eliminating competition for light and space so that the remaining plants are better able to grow and thrive. In some cases, trees may also be removed to allow for new construction, home additions and to provide clearances with those structures.

Tree removal is the most hazardous aspect of arboriculture. Often, tree workers must remove trees growing in confined spaces near houses, utility lines and other sensitive areas. Tree removal requires considerable expertise to successfully perform this task. At Mountain View Tree Service , our arborists are highly trained to work safely and efficiently in all tree removals. We provide thorough clean up of debris and strive to minimize the impact to surrounding vegetation.

Tree Stump Removal

As part of the tree removal process, the stump will typically be left as close to the ground as possible. If needed, removal of the stump can be provided. Stump removal can be challenging and often special machinery is required, but it may be necessary if the stump is a hazard in the landscape or simply an eyesore. Stump grinding by a professional is the easiest and safest way to handle this work.
