A trimming and pruning visit starts before anyone picks up a saw. Our arborists assess the tree's structure, checking for weak unions, deadwood, and canopy density issues that are common in San Antonio's live oaks and other native species.
Every cut has a purpose behind it: removing what's likely to fail or cause problems while preserving the tree's natural shape and health. Overpruning stresses a tree just as much as neglecting it, especially in a climate where heat and drought already put trees under pressure.
For a lot of properties in San Antonio, this time of year is a good window to address structural issues before cooler weather changes growth patterns. It's a smaller job than a removal, but it can prevent bigger problems down the line.
When was the last time a certified arborist actually assessed your trees, rather than just trimming what was reachable from the ground?
