Proper tree trimming isn't just about aesthetics — it's essential for the health of your trees, the safety of your property, and the overall look of your landscape. Timing is everything when it comes to pruning.
Late winter to early spring is the ideal time for most deciduous trees. When trees are dormant, you can see the branch structure clearly, and pruning wounds heal quickly once spring growth begins. This reduces the risk of disease and pest infestation.
Summer pruning is best for removing dead or damaged branches, correcting growth problems, or reducing the size of overly vigorous trees. Light pruning in summer is fine, but avoid heavy cuts that can stress the tree during the growing season.
Emergency tree service may be needed after Pacific Northwest storms. High winds and heavy rain can damage trees, creating hazards. If you notice leaning trees, hanging branches, or trees near power lines, call a professional immediately.
