Tree Pruning and Tree Trimming

Perhaps dead branches are weighing your tree down and pests are infesting your tree’s trunk, bark, and branches. Maybe you want to encourage flowering and flowering sets or you simply wish to enhance your property’s landscape and aesthetic appeal. If that’s the case then our tree pruning and trimming services are an excellent solution.


These two procedures are usually performed at different times of the year. They each require a particular set of gardening tools, equipment, and methods. Tree trimming, for instance, mainly consists of improving the look of a tree and alleviating some of the stress of overgrowth. On the other hand, pruning helps maintain the healthy growth of fruit plants and flowers by disposing of diseased branches.


● Benefits of Tree Pruning and Tree Trimming

Foster Healthy Growth

When a tree begins to droop, this could be due to decaying or diseased branches. Tree pruning is necessary to help strengthen the roots and promote healthy growth. Tree trimming can also help in that regard as it removes the portions of the sickly parts of the tree that are plagued by pests or fungi. Both methods have the potential to regenerate your tree in combination with abundant sunlight and improved air circulation.


Promote Proper Development

By trimming and pruning a young tree, it is possible to encourage proper development and promote lush growth. When a shrub or tree suffers from anemic growth and weakened sections, selective pruning can be vital as it produces more robust and compact plants. Not only that but this method can also coax significant growth spurs, and by extension produce more flowers and fruit. Moreover, seasonal pruning, during summer for fruit trees, for example, facilitates air circulation, and remedies disease, decay, and infestations.


Improve Structure

Tree trimming and pruning can dramatically improve the structure of your shrubs and trees. With that said, trimming and pruning malpractices can be detrimental to your tree’s structural soundness, which can lead to the opposite of the desired effect. Topping, in particular, will not only weaken the tree but make it more susceptible to pest infestations. 


Provide Clearance

Overgrowth and dead or decaying branches are both a risk to your tree’s health and the surrounding infrastructure. Neglected trees tend to overextend into the nearby property. They can also block driveways and even encroach over the roof, fencing, and come in direct contact with power lines. When this happens, fire hazards and outages are exponentially more likely to occur. Fortunately, our expert arborists are trained to provide safe clearance before the overgrown trees wreak havoc on neighboring properties. 


Enhance Visual Appeal

Tree pruning and trimming can greatly enhance the visual appeal of your landscaping. Removing dead branches will help your lawn look more immaculate and well-kept. In addition to that, you can choose the most suitable shape for trees that not only nicely complements your home but one that encourages splendid blooms as well. At St. Joseph Tree Service, we can also trim and prune your trees in a way that does not interfere with the view outside so you can fully relish the spectacular scenery of St Joseph, MO.


Emergency Tree Response

Whether it’s an earthquake, a hurricane, heavy wind, storms, or a drastic weather event, emergency tree response is needed immediately as these occurrences are very time-sensitive. Fallen trees and branches pose a safety issue and you need instantaneous intervention before the situation turns more precarious. St. Joseph Tree Service has tremendous experience in remedying the often overwhelming aftermath of such disasters, which tend to result in torrential amounts of debris. Our team of arborists is trained in emergency tree response and will promptly respond to distressing situations. 


Tree Removal

While trees can add great value to your property, they can also be a liability when neglected. Tree removal services are often performed to extract dead and dying trees but also trees that may pose a threat, either on the infrastructure or the property. St. Joseph Tree Service has the certified professionals, the experience, and the knowledge to examine your trees for signs of damage and decay to make the appropriate evaluation and recommend a solution. 


Safety and liability are a big part of what we stand for. Having your trees checked can help you mitigate potential liabilities and avoid costly interventions further down the line. Whether the tree removal consists of a minor procedure or whether it necessitates a more complicated approach, our highly trained tree care professionals have both the tools and the experience to handle any job. 


Stump Grinding

Stump grinding involves utilizing a specific piece of equipment to shred the tree stump into woodchips. These, in turn, can be repurposed and used as mulch for other plants or thrown away. Unlike stump removal, grinding is faster, less invasive, and more efficient when it comes to getting rid of unappealing stumps from your lawn. That being said, stump grinding does not dispose of the tree’s root system. 


This is a more cost-effective method that you can count on to get rid of the visible portions of the tree. While the roots can naturally decay, a complete decomposition often takes years to occur. Keep in mind that if you go for this option, you should always consult with a landscaping design professional to assess whether you can rebuild or replant on the same spot.
