Pruning FAQ

Creating a beautiful outdoor space can be difficult if you don’t know the proper maintenance required to help your area thrive. Our certified arborists are here to help by answering these common questions.

How often should I schedule a pruning?

Based on the tree species, we can help you decide the best time of year to prune your tree. Trimming at the wrong time of year can adversely affect its growth. Schedule a pruning annually to remove deadwood and help your tree flourish.

What is the difference between trimming and pruning?

Pruning focuses on enhancing health by increasing airflow and light. Trimming is more cosmetic by adjusting the tree’s shape or appearance to match your ideal landscape.

Can I DIY tree pruning?

When you need tree pruning, it must be done by our certified professionals who know the proper techniques. Over-pruning can kill your tree and using the wrong tools will further damage your tree’s health, achieving the opposite of what we aim to accomplish.

We have over a decade of experience completing expert tree trimming and pruning in Cambridge, so your landscape looks its best throughout the year. For small-town treatment with big-city expertise, count on Barrett Tree East now!

Benefits of Tree Trimming

Taking good care of your tree can increase its strength and longevity so you can make memories under its shade for years to come. There are multiple trimming techniques, including crown thinning, lifting, and reduction, that can open the canopy for more sunlight, increase the space underneath, or reduce its overall height. Our arborists can help you choose which trimming technique will help you reach your outdoor dream space.  

Properly maintaining your trees with this service offers these benefits:

  • Improves overall health
  • Increase sunlight exposure
