Deadwooding a mature Atlanta shade tree: spotting the bare limbs in a full canopy

Post Copy

See the bare limb against all that green? That is the one that snaps in a storm.

Dead branches have lost their flex, so they break instead of bend. Over a driveway or roofline, that is a real hazard.

Deadwooding pulls the dead and dying limbs out of the canopy while leaving the healthy structure untouched. Summer makes the targets easy to see, and our climbers take exactly what needs to go.
