Professional Evaluation: Before initiating any tree service, have a certified arborist assess the health, stability, and structural integrity of the tree. This evaluation should guide decisions regarding whether the tree requires pruning, trimming, or removal.

Planning for Tree Growth: Consider the long-term health and growth patterns of the tree. Prune strategically to promote a strong structure and minimize the risk of future hazards.

Selective Pruning: Use selective pruning techniques to remove dead or diseased branches, improve tree structure, and enhance aesthetic appeal.

Avoid Over-Pruning: Over-pruning, also known as "topping," can stress the tree, lead to decay, and make it more susceptible to diseases. Follow industry-standard guidelines for the amount of live foliage that can be removed.
