Tree Pruning FAQ — Austin homeowners

What's the difference between trimming and pruning?+

In practice they overlap. Trimming usually means clearance work — getting limbs off the roof, fence, or driveway. Pruning is more about long-term tree health and structure: removing dead wood, thinning the canopy, and shaping young trees so they grow strong.

Do you top trees?+

No. Topping damages trees, creates weak regrowth, and shortens the tree's life. We prune using accepted industry practices that protect the tree's health.

How often should I prune my trees?+

Young trees benefit from light structural pruning every 1–3 years. Mature trees usually only need pruning every 3–5 years for deadwood and clearance. We'll tell you honestly if your tree doesn't need work yet.

Will pruning help my tree survive a storm?+

Yes. Removing deadwood, weak unions, and excess weight reduces the chance of limb failure in heavy wind. It's one of the best preventative things you can do before storm season.
