Professional Tree Pruning in Ottawa
Every urban tree needs pruning at different stages of its life. After our certified arborist assesses your tree, we may recommend pruning in order to mitigate hazards or promote the long-term health of your tree.
Pruning improves both safety and tree health. Each tree requires a careful approach based on species, structure, and growing conditions. After assessing your tree, we make our decision to prune based on making your tree safer, healthier, and ultimately more valuable. Our decision is based on how healthy the tree is, knowing that each pruning cut is a wound.
Common pruning work includes:
- Thinning branches to improve airflow and light.
- Clearance pruning near buildings, walkways, and driveways.
- Removing dead or diseased wood.
- Structural pruning to correct weak growth patterns.
- Shaping and crown reductions to limit canopy spread.
- Heading to reduce height or redirect vertical growth.
