Types of Tree Trimming We Offer
At Spears Tree Experts Inc., we tailor our services to the unique needs of each tree and property. Our comprehensive trimming and pruning services include:
Tree Thinning
We selectively remove branches to reduce density without altering the overall shape. This improves airflow, reduces weight, and minimizes wind resistance.
Crown Elevation
Removing lower limbs raises the tree’s canopy, improving visibility, increasing clearance for vehicles or pedestrians, and reducing interference with buildings or fences.
Dead Wooding
We identify and remove dead, dying, or broken branches that can fall unexpectedly — especially after storms or heavy winds.
Structural Pruning
Young trees benefit from strategic pruning to encourage strong central trunks and well-spaced limbs, ensuring healthy growth as they mature.
Tree Topping
While not recommended for every species, topping is sometimes appropriate to reduce height. We assess each case carefully and prioritize tree health when this technique is used.
Why Tree Trimming & Pruning Matter
Proper trimming and pruning aren’t just about appearance — they’re essential to the long-term health and stability of your trees. Overgrown or poorly maintained branches can:
- Interfere with power lines or structures
- Block sunlight from your lawn or garden
- Break during storms and cause property damage
- Allows nutrients to travel throughout the rest of the tree and prevents it from robbing vital nutrients
Routine pruning enhances airflow, encourages stronger growth, and reduces the risk of storm-related hazards. It also shapes trees for better symmetry and landscape design.
Tree Trimming for Safety and Insurance Compliance
Many homeowners don't realize that overhanging branches or neglected trees can lead to insurance issues. In fact, some insurers require regular maintenance to prevent liability. Our professional tree trimming services not only enhance safety but help ensure compliance with local codes and insurance standards.
When Is the Best Time to Trim?
In Michigan most trees are good to trim all year around.
We do highly recommended that you trim your oak and elm trees during their dormant season — typically late fall to early spring. Trimming during this time reduces stress and most importantly minimizes the risk of disease.
We always assess tree health and seasonal factors before recommending work.
