Tree trimming

Tree trimming, Tree pruning, Brossard

Pruning and pruning are the two tasks we are most frequently asked to perform. These operations both aim at removing branches or tree segments, partially or totally. However, the intention or the types of gestures performed differ. So, what is the distinction concerned? This is a useful thing to know before contacting us. 

What's the difference between pruning and pruning a tree? ​

A pruning is carried out in a basic perspective of conservation of the health of a large plant; in a broader way, with the aim of enhancing its constitution or improving its development.

It goes without saying that meeting your needs also occupies the attention of a pruner, but he will look for ways to do so without compromising your tree. Running to the essentials is the watchword. Therefore, he only cuts branches if it is required, because they are broken or weak, for example.

Pruning, on the other hand, is concerned with human expectations to the detriment of impacts on a tree if necessary. In this case, the cuts frequently concern larger segments. Several can even be cut down at once. This may be the head of your tree or all the branches of a given large section. Pruning is therefore more drastic, and therefore more risky for the condition of the tree afterwards. However, the objective may make the operation essential. This is the case, among other possibilities, when the growth of a tree brings it too close to electrical wires or to a building.

Tree trimming

Pruning applies to a variety of motivations when pruning would not be sufficient but it is not required to cut down a tree either. A municipality or Hydro-Québec may have required the pruning of a tree in order to preserve public infrastructure. Similarly, a pruner may perform such a technique to protect the integrity of a house in the event that branches venture too close to it. One of the requests a trimmer can also receive is to cut off the head of a row of trees on a property because the tops obscure a superb view. Sometimes, he may also be asked to cut off the entire lower branch of a large plant, where it is intended to place relaxation furniture. Last but not least, pruning is sometimes done to free up sidewalks, bicycle paths, walkways or roads, with a view to safety. 

Pruning causes trauma to trees. Such stress can damage a large plant to the point of causing it to die too quickly. This is why, when it comes to pruning, it is a wise precaution to seek the advice of a certified arborist before making any decisions.

Tree pruning

Properly executed, pruning can be a preventive measure, which will prevent later pruning or felling because future impacts on the tree, caused by today's actions, are weighed before the operations concerned are carried out. 

The seasoned pruner examines the plant silhouette to identify branches to be removed. He wants to remove only the bare minimum, focusing on the weakest, sick, broken or dead ones. In doing so, the antler is restructured, consolidated, and fewer branches will fall in the future. This means that risks of injury or unfortunate accidents or even considerable damage to property, buildings or infrastructure are avoided. Moreover, the prudent pruner will proceed with dexterity, so as to delicately orient the trajectory of branch growth in a different way, to ensure that they do not approach the residence in the future. His gestures can also be guided by objectives such as encouraging light on a specific section of the land, i.e. a flower garden, a vegetable garden, a terrace... Cutting certain branches is beneficial to the growth of a tree, and if it is a fruit tree, the fruit harvest is maximized. Performed with skill and experience, pruning enhances the appearance of a plant, which will be all the more majestic. 

Who hasn't tasted or at least wished for the well-being provided by well-tended trees? Be aware that care and attention varies according to the species. The trimmer, a connoisseur, ensures that the highest standards are respected in order to achieve healthy development objectives for your trees, and this, throughout their longevity.
