Tampa Tree Pruning

I have the pleasure of working on the website for a Tree Trimming company that serves the Tampa area. Of course, to work on that site I have to read and type a considerable amount of text on the topic of tree services.

Recently I was working on the page about Tree Pruning and Tree Trimming and thought it would make an interesting piece here.

Trees grow in forests and no one trims them, so why should I have my trees trimmed?

Well, if a limb falls in the forest, no one cares. Healthy trees shed limbs, sometimes large limbs, so keeping them trimmed out is necessary for safety.

If the entire tree falls in the forest, another will likely grow in it's place. If it falls on your home, it will likely do considerable damage and could cause serious injury to anyone nearby. An experienced arborist knows how to trim a tree properly to minimize the chance that the tree will fall.

Unlike the in the forest, trees near our homes are subject to our aesthetic desires. We want our trees to look nice. Trimming a tree helps maintain symmetry and a pleasant appearance.

If a tree is not growing enough foliage, a proper pruning will encourage it to put on more branches and leaves. If the tree is growing out of control, a prune / trim can curb and control the extra growth.

A tree might also be trimmed or pruned to allow more light to filter through the canopy or to allow more wind to pass through, making it less susceptible to storm damage.

Attempting to trim a tree without proper safety equipment and know-how is a dangerous thing! It's one thing to cut down a tree in the forest and let it fall, but in an around homes, cars and people, let the experts do the climbing and cutting.
