Tree Pruning in Atlanta

Pruning removes deadwood, crossing branches, and weak attachments so a tree grows stronger and is less likely to fail in a storm.

What tree pruning involves

  • Deadwood removal
  • Structural pruning on young trees
  • Crown cleaning and crown reduction
  • Removing crossing or rubbing limbs

Signs you need it

  • Dead branches in the canopy
  • Branches rubbing against each other
  • V-shaped weak unions
  • Young trees developing poor form

What to expect

We prune with clean, properly placed cuts and never remove more live canopy than the tree can tolerate.

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to prune in Georgia?

Late winter, before spring growth, is ideal for most species. Dead or hazardous limbs can be removed any time of year.

Is topping a tree okay?

No. Topping creates weak regrowth and decay. We use crown reduction instead.
