Our professional arborists can assess the tree's health and safety to determine if removal is necessary.
The frequency of tree trimming or pruning depends on various factors such as tree species, age, and overall health. As a general guideline, it is recommended to have trees pruned every 3-5 years to maintain their shape, promote healthy growth, and remove any hazardous or dead branches.
The ideal time to plant new trees depends on the tree species and climate.

However, it's best to consult with our experts who can provide guidance based on your specific location and tree species.
