Are your trees’ branches being trimmed often? Without proper instruments and knowledge of properly trimming the branches, it is going to be challenging. You may end up doing more harm than good this way. You should use the appropriate method in cutting off the branches because using the wrong technique may lead to damaging the tree itself.
Instead of trimming your trees yourself, you should hire a tree trimming expert like Jose's Tree Services. We use a tried-and-tested approach to trimming trees in the properties of our clients in the Irving, TX area.
Importance of Trimming Trees
Tree trimming is important because it ensures the growth of new, healthy shoots or branches and ultimately keeps the tree healthy and good-looking. If you cut almost any branch that you encounter, there is a high likelihood that it will be a structural brunch that supports the tree. If you use the wrong trimming technique to cut the branch; you can cut the tree’s trunk and this may take a longer period for the tree to heal, especially if the damage is massive. In addition, the tool that you use to cut the branches will also depend on the size of the branch you are dealing with. Hence, if you cannot find the appropriate way or do not have the special equipment to prune the branches on your own, there is always the alternative of engaging an expert such as us.
The Way We Trim Trees
We ensure we do it safely and correctly because tree trimming can cause more harm to the tree instead of benefiting it if done carelessly. Some of the techniques that we utilize include cutting down some small branches 2–3 feet from the ground by use of the tree-cut method. We will create another slot in line with this notched end of the branch, thereby preventing its crack at the next cut. After this, we have to take another complete cut across the branch leaving it weightless, to avoid any possibility of splitting or breaking while cutting the last one. After that, we shall bring out the last bit where the collar changes to the smooth skin at the bottom of the branch. If our saw cannot fit into the crotch, we will cut it from the bottom up. Well, have no fear because we will use appropriate methods & tools to not cause a deep cut in the tree.
