The Common Types of Tree Trimming

Spring is a great time for tree trimming. The weather is great and along with your general household spring cleaning, why not go for a full maintenance check for your outdoor area as well? One important note though – trimming during this season is not ideal for all tree types. When you’re doubtful, ask your local arborist or tree contractor for advice. Of course, that depends on the kind of trimming or pruning you want to be done. In fact, there are several types of tree trimming.

Tree trimming generally means removing or cutting down some limbs and branches that are overgrown. There are plenty of benefits attributed to trimming trees. Among them are the following:

• Tree trimming helps improve tree health.
  
• Tree trimming is a great way to beautify the tree and strengthen its structure.
• For fruit- or flower-bearing trees, trimming can help increase or improve the produce.
• Tree trimming opens up your view, increases air circulation, and sun exposure.
• A great way to prevent trees from becoming hazardous is through tree trimming.

The common types of tree trimming include:

• Fine Pruning – This is usually done for aesthetic purposes. Small limbs are removed to shape or beautify trees.
  
• Standard Pruning – The structure of the tree is enhanced and strengthened by strategic cutting on some areas of the tree.
  
• Crown Reduction – When a tree is starting to overgrow, stretches towards your neighbor’s property, the structure of your home, powerlines, and others, trimming is done.
  
• Hazard Trimming – When a tree seems to be unsafe or in danger of falling down, it can be trimmed instead of removing it.
