7 Signs You Need a Tree Pruning Service 

Your trees don’t just add beauty and shade to your property; they need care to stay healthy and safe. Neglecting tree maintenance could lead to safety hazards and impact the health of the tree. But how do you know when it’s time to call a professional tree service company? If you're a homeowner with trees that might need a little extra attention, here are seven clear signs it’s time to act.


1. Dead or Diseased Branches

Do your trees have branches that are dry, brittle, or rotting? These are telltale signs of deadwood or potential disease. Leaving them unchecked can cause the disease to spread or lead to falling branches, which can damage your property or put people at risk.


2. Overgrown Canopy

An overly thick tree canopy not only blocks sunlight but also restricts proper airflow. This can stunt overall tree growth and increase the risk of disease. Pruning helps thin the canopy to ensure light and air reach every part of the tree and the ground beneath.


3. Branches Touching Your Home

If branches are brushing up against your house, roof, or power lines, it’s time for immediate action. They can cause structural damage or create access points for pests. A tree pruning service can safely remove or shorten these branches.

4. Storm Damage

After a heavy storm, you may notice broken or dangling branches. These pose a serious safety hazard and should be addressed by a professional arborist who can evaluate what needs to be pruned away.


5. Uneven Growth or Shape

If your tree has an unbalanced, irregular, or awkward shape, pruning can restore its symmetry and structure. Strategic cuts will encourage stronger, healthier growth.



6. Excessive Leaf or Branch Drop

Are branches falling more frequently, or do you notice a pile of leaves even out of season? This could signal poor tree health caused by stress, pests, or disease. Professional tree pruning can address these concerns and promote recovery.


7. Encroaching on Other Trees or Structures

Trees that grow too close together or infringe on nearby structures can create competition for resources and growth issues. Pruning helps maintain proper spacing and balance, ensuring optimal conditions for all your trees and property features.
