Initial Assessments
Before we do any changes or alterations to the tree, the first thing that OC Tree Service Pros does is make an initial assessment. We want to know how healthy the tree is, the pace at which it has been growing and where the tree is located. We also try to identify the species of the tree. All this helps us determine the techniques in pruning and crowning that need to be done in order to respect the natural behavior of the tree, as well as adapt it appropriately to your property.

Health
When we are performing tree pruning and crowning services, our professional arborists always make sure to be on the lookout for withering or rotting branches, as well as moldy bark. This is a way to monitor how healthy the tree is. Monitoring also gives us insight on what type of tree care is needed to help the tree to grow properly. Our arborists always inform our clients of anything we see in the tree that might be out of the ordinary. We like our clients to always be informed about what’s going on. Of course, pruning and crowning regularly is the best way to avoid sickly trees.

DIY?
Pruning is an importance part of gardening and landscaping. For many people that enjoy gardening, pruning is an activity that they are familiar with. We are always happy to meet new clients that are enthusiastic gardeners. We don’t want to intrude on their hobby, but rather be supportive extra help. Our experience has given us the knowledge to identify the season in which different trees need to be pruned. We can also distinguish which tools can benefit or harm a tree. We advise you to be careful with DIY tutorials. You might end up cutting too much of the wrong branch. Go for the safe option and hire a professional.

Crowning
Crowning a tree is an easy non-invasive way to neaten up a tree’s upper form. Crowning has different techniques depending on the types of branches and leaves that a tree has. One of the benefits of crowning, it that during the winter, a tree can increase light into your house or business without having to cut down branches. Crowning is a better option than topping because it doesn’t inhibit the tree growth or hinder flowers from blossom during the spring. Crowning makes it harder for decay to show up on the branches. It’s definitely a technique to achieve strong, healthy trees.
