Omaha Tree Trimming Services

Tree trimming is the process of removing dead or unwanted tree branches. Tree trimming services can be performed year-round on both large and small trees. Depending on the size, our arborists may use an array of tools to trim your trees, such as trimmers, chainsaws, and tree loppers. For close trimming we’ll also use vehicles, such as lifts, to trim any hard-to reach-places.

How Often Should Trees Be Trimmed?

How often your trees need to be trimmed depends on a few factors including the maturity of the tree (younger trees may need to be trimmed more often than mature ones) and the type of tree.

In general, young trees need to be trimmed every year or two, while mature trees can go 3-5 years. There are certain trees that need to be trimmed more frequently, like fruit trees, or less frequently, like evergreen trees.

While trimming can be done at any time, it’s best to trim during a tree’s dormant season. A tree’s dormant season may vary depending on its species, however, most trees are dormant in late fall and winter. Trimming when a tree is dormant lessens the likelihood of the tree becoming damaged during trimming or pruning.

What are the Benefits of Tree Trimming?

Improves Tree Health - Trimming is intended to improve a tree’s health by eliminating dead branches. Tree trimming can also help to increase a tree’s sun exposure and air circulation, which supplements its roots and surrounding areas.

Tree Pruning Services in Omaha

Whether it’s large or small, we can prune it for you! Our tree pruning services are offered as part of our tree trimming services or on a separate, one-time basis.

What is Tree Pruning?

Tree pruning involves selectively removing branches from a tree to improve its structure. With our tree pruning services, we’ll make sure your tree is growing into an arrangement (of limbs and branches) that is right for the structural integrity of the tree. Tree pruning services are focused more on removing potential safety hazards due to loose or dead branches, while tree trimming services enhance overall aesthetics and plant health.

Our tree pruning services include:

Crown Cleaning
Crown cleaning is the removal of dead, diseased, or weak branches. This process can be done at any time and is included as part of our other tree pruning services. Crown cleaning strengthens a tree and prevents future damage.
Crown Thinning
Crown thinning involves selectively removing upper, outer branches to reduce the size of a tree. Thinning is performed on mature trees to increase light and air movement throughout the crown. Crown thinning will also help reduce the weight of heavy limbs while keeping the natural shape of the tree.
Crown Raising
Crown raising is the removal of a tree’s lower branches, which can become an obstacle for homes, people, and vehicles. Raising should be worked on over time, as removing too many branches may result in a weak tree.
Crown Reduction
Crown reduction is a method used on older, mature trees. Reduction reduces a tree’s height or outward growth while maintaining the form and structural integrity of the tree.

While we specialize in stump grinding, we also offer stump removal services. Stump removal is a more invasive process that eliminates both the stump and the roots, so there’s no chance of regrowth. Our experienced arborists in Omaha will assess your situation before determining which service is better for you.

When Should Trees Be Pruned?

Trees should be pruned when they’re young, so they develop with a strong structure and form.
They’ll also require less corrective pruning as they mature. However, because this isn’t always possible, we offer our pruning services for trees of all sizes, maturities, and locations.
