Pruning 

Its a wise investment. Having a professional arborist prune your trees and shrubs saves you time, gets all your debris hauled away at the same time, eliminates buying or renting equipment, keeps you safely on the ground and insures the job is done right not only for the appearance of your landscape but for your trees health as well.

Choose your arborist carefully. 

Improper pruning can harm your already healthy plants and cause unsightly growth. Call Northwest Tree Specialists, experts who know that no cut should be made without a specific purpose.

We follow the pruning standards for the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) the governing agencies on tree care. Therefore, you can relax knowing that your trees will look great, be safe, and live longer after being pruned by our skilled specialists.

When do I prune my trees?

This is a very common question. Ideally, the dead of winter is the best time to prune. Pruning during this dormant period is:

• less stressful to trees
• minimizes the risk of disease infection or insect infestation
• allows you to better see the overall shape and structure of the tree

Unfortunately, winter dormancy pruning is not always practical. Non-dormant pruning is acceptable, but needs to be done carefully and selectively. Pruning of fruiting and flowering trees is more season specific. Your personal consultant at Northwest Tree Specialists can help with those questions.

Important: If you have dead, broken, or hazardous branches in your trees that you are concerned about, please call us right away so that we can get someone out to your property as soon as possible to minimize the potential for property loss or personal injury.
