Tree Trimming

WHY CHOOSE HENDERSON TREE AND LANDSCAPE TO TRIM YOUR TREES?

All too often we see improperly trimmed trees. Too many limbs removed, improper cuts, topping and majority of the time the home owner has no idea what has been done to their tree except the fact that it was "trimmed" at a low cost. Tree trimming is a science, we don't trim limbs (to make it look good) we trim properly. We look at branch attachment and ask ourselves, is this branch going to develop included bark? The list goes on. We simply don't just trim your trees, we surgically remove specific branches using methods set by the International Society of Arboriculture, based on guidelines developed, studied and performed by the nations leading tree experts.

WHAT ARE THE EFFECTS OF AN IMPROPER CUT?

Think of it as a tooth with a cavity, if not treated, the decay will continue ultimately until the tooth needs to be removed, the same is true with trees which have been improperly cut. Here's how it works: When an improper collar cut is made on a tree, the vascular tissue will not be able to seal the wound, thus resulting in excess decay where the cut was made. Whereas, when a proper cut is made the vascular tissue will be able to enclose the wound, thus minimizing decay and protecting the tree from infection which can lead to excessive decay. Simply put one bad cut can lead to the eventual death of a tree.
