Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

The duration of pruning depends on the tree's size, type, and the specific pruning needed. A small tree may take a couple of hours, while larger project scan span a day or more. At ArborPro, we assess each situation and provide an estimated timeframe before beginning the work.

The ideal time for pruning varies with tree species and the desired outcome. Generally, late winter to early spring is a good time for most trees, as they are dormant and less susceptible to harm. However, certain trees, like oak and elm, require specific timing to prevent disease. Our ArborPro experts can guide you on the optimal pruning schedule for your trees.

Determining the right type of pruning involves assessing the tree's health, structure, and your aesthetic goals. Common pruning types include:

  • Hazard Pruning: Removing branches that pose safety risks.
  • Thinning: Improving light penetration and air circulation.
  • Crown Raising: Clearing lower branches for clearance.
  • Crown Reduction: Reducing the size of the tree while maintaining its natural form.

While often used interchangeably, there is a subtle difference. Trimming generally refers to cutting overgrown branches to enhance a tree’s shape and appearance. Pruning, on the other hand, is more focused on the tree's health, removing dead or diseased branches to promote healthy growth.

While basic trimming can be a DIY task for smaller trees, pruning, especially for larger or hazard trees, requires professional expertise. Incorrect pruning can harm the tree and pose safety risks. ArborPro's team of certified arborists ensures that pruning is done safely and effectively, adhering to industry standards.

The frequency of pruning or trimming depends on the type and age of the tree, as well as your goals for the tree. Our certified arborists can provide guidance on the best schedule for your specific trees.

Absolutely! When done correctly, pruning is beneficial for trees. It removes dead and diseased branches, encourages healthy growth, improves fruit production in fruit trees, and enhances the overall health and appearance of the tree.

Permit requirements depend on the location and type of tree. Generally, street trees and trees in certain zoning areas may require a permit for pruning. ArborPro can assist with understanding and navigating these regulations to ensure compliance.
