Tree Pruning
Pruning that respects tree structure, safety, and long-term health.
CETC pruning plans are built around the species in your yard and your long-term goals for each site on the property.
Pruning Methods
Pruning may include structure pruning to remove future defects, select pruning for specific branches, crown cleaning for dead, broken, or diseased branches, crown thinning to reduce storm breakage and increase interior light, and crown reduction to decrease canopy size.
- Small trees: roughly 2 to 10 inches in diameter and 10 to 20 feet tall
- Medium trees: roughly 10 to 20 inches in diameter and 10 to 35 feet tall
- Large trees: 20 inches or more in diameter and 35 feet or taller
