Why should I get my trees professionally pruned?

Elevational Heights Tree Care • 13 July 2023

If your big trees are overgrown, they can become eyesores on your property. But by getting them professionally pruned, they can be transformed into attractive focal points of your landscape. Proper pruning also helps to keep trees in strong health. At Elevational Heights Tree Care, our experienced arborists provide top-quality tree pruning in the greater High Point, NC area. Our local arborist crew can expertly prune your trees to help them attain optimal health and beauty. Here’s a look at four benefits of getting your trees professionally pruned.


Remove Unhealthy Limbs

During a pruning session, we’ll remove limbs that are dead, dying, diseased, and damaged. In high winds, such limbs are more likely to break off and come crashing down, which could damage your home or vehicles, and may even inflict injuries. It’s best for unhealthy limbs to be removed by a professional so that the cuts are done in a way that they’ll heal well.


Train Young Trees to Grow Attractively

Trees typically should be first pruned somewhere between ages three and five. By pruning trees from a young age, it’s more likely that they’ll grow into healthy and attractive shapes as they mature. 


Enhance Your View

If your home would have a desirable view except that there’s an overgrown tree in the way, then our local arborists can help. We can prune the tree in a way that improves your view while also being mindful of the tree’s health.


Let More Sunlight Reach Lawn & Garden Beds

When a tree’s canopy becomes overgrown, it can prevent the lawn and garden beds below it from receiving ample sunlight. Lawns generally need a minimum of six hours of sunlight with no more than 20% filter. Thinning out an overgrown tree will improve air circulation in its canopy while also allowing more light to reach the other important flora in your landscape.
