Our experts will assess your trees, evaluate their health, and provide advice on proper care.

Tree trimming is essential for maintaining the aesthetics and structural integrity of your trees, as it helps to remove deadwood, improve airflow, and promote healthy growth.

If you have larger trees on your property, we tend to recommend Charleston tree trimming services. That’s because they are more likely to have large canopies that block the sunlight from reaching the rest of your garden. Plus, they can also be a hazard. However, we may also recommend tree trimming in Charleston, WV, to improve the overall appearance of your tree and property. This can include shaping the tree to a more desired form, removing damaged or diseased branches, and enhancing its natural beauty. The experienced arborists on our team can assess the health of the tree and recommend the best course of action for a Charleston tree trimming service.

Other benefits of tree trimming include an increased lifespan, decreased risk of disease, improved growth, increased structural strength, and reduced risk of property damage. Tree trimming is considered a form of maintenance, and removing unsightly or dead branches or twigs allows sunlight and nutrients to reach healthy parts of the tree and the yard below it. Proper trimming can reduce your tree’s risk of disease, as healthy trees can fight off disease and infections better, and it would reduce the risk of weakened branches falling and damaging something, especially during storms or other harsh weather conditions.

FAQ About Tree Trimming: Charleston, WV

What is the difference between tree trimming and tree pruning?

While the terms 'tree trimming' and 'tree pruning' can be used interchangeably, there is a slight difference between the two.

Tree trimming refers to the act of removing parts of your tree to improve its appearance and functionality. The idea here is that by removing select parts of the tree, you can improve its overall appearance, allow sunlight to penetrate through its leaves, reach other parts of the tree and the ground below, and maintain the size of your tree. While professional tree trimming also allows you to manage disease and pests and protect the tree and your property from damage, the primary function of tree trimming is to improve the appearance of your tree for aesthetic purposes.

Tree pruning refers to the act of removing parts of your tree to improve its health. The idea here is that you are removing dead, broken, or diseased tree branches and limbs from the tree, allowing you to fight and prevent diseases such as Black Knot or DED, and removing dying, dead or broken parts of the tree allows you to manage its health and prevent rot and fungi infections. While tree pruning also allows you to improve a tree’s appearance, the primary function is to improve the health of the tree.

When is the best time to trim my tree in West Virginia?

If you are looking to have your tree trimmed, most routine tree trimming or pruning services can take place throughout the years without harming the tree. However, for a non-routine service, different practices can take place at different times of the year.

Generally speaking, most trees will benefit more from a trim or pruning service taking place during their dormancy period, typically mid-late winter. This helps to encourage new growth in the spring. Similarly, to correct or direct growth, have these services performed after their seasonal growth has taken place, and to enhance flowering, trim or prune flowering trees once their flowering has faded, which differs depending on if they’re spring or summer flowering trees.

It is not generally a good idea to prune during the fall, however, as fungi can spread quickly then, and the wounds left on your tree heal more slowly. If you are unsure of when to trim or prune your trees, contact one of our expert tree specialists, and they’ll be happy to answer any of your questions.

Can I trim my trees?

Trimming your trees depends on your skill level and the level of damage done to your tree. If you have the skills, the damage is minor, and the parts that need trimming are safely within your reach, you may be able to trim or prune your trees safely. If a ladder is required, please practice ladder safety, ensuring it’s inspected and safe to use.

However, if you don’t have the experience, there is extensive damage, or the branches that need trimming are in a hard-to-reach area, it is recommended to hire an arborist. Trees, especially larger ones with hazardous tree branches, have a lot of branches and limbs weaving themselves into an intricate canopy. One wrong move can result in serious injury. Additionally, you may end up causing further harm to your tree, and wind up with a dead tree.

Professional arborists have the skills, expertise and equipment to properly assess the tree's condition, and carry out the trimming or removal process safely, performing the work with a high level of quality without harming your tree. They can also provide you with guidance on tree care practices to help you maintain its health in the long run. If you’re in doubt, just call The Grounds Guys for convenient tree trimming in Charleston, WV. Our experienced and fully insured team will expertly trim your tree while you take care of other matters.
