Tree pruning

Tree trimmer and pruner in Rimouski

Tree pruning is one of our most requested tree maintenance services at Emondage Rimouski. But did you know that tree pruning can also be severe? It is therefore important to distinguish between regular and severe pruning, even if both involve cutting branches. It is the manner in which the work is performed that is the distinguishing factor.

Difference between regular and severe tree pruning

Let's start with tree pruning, in its usual version. It is a technique that is concerned with the health of the tree. It proceeds by extending its planning over a long period of time. Each step is thought out and carried out in such a way as to ensure a healthy development of the plant covered by such assiduities. The movements practiced are meticulous and thoughtful and are carried out with careful dexterity. Each cut is useful. If necessary, concessions will be recommended to ensure the good condition of the plant and to remain within the limits of regular pruning.

Now the tree pruning in its severe version. This time, the objectives are in the forefront. The dexterity used is more drastic. But this abruptness harms the trees. It is the nature of the purposes concerned that justifies it. Safety reasons or to ensure the realization of a construction are then involved. The best example of this is the trees that everyone has in mind after the passage of the Hydro-Quebec tree pruners. The task was to protect the electrical wires to secure the delivery of energy. Safety or economic or housing development imperatives are usually the reason for severe pruning.

Severe tree pruning

Severe tree pruning is a method that is used when conventional pruning does not achieve the desired goals and felling is not required.  The tree pruner removes the top of a tree or a very large proportion of the crown of branches, for example the entire lower branches. The reasons for doing this are to prevent branches from causing major damage to a roof, a garage, the car parked in the driveway or to impede the passage of pedestrians, bicycles or cars (on a sidewalk, a path or a road). The protection of various public or private buildings or infrastructures may therefore require severe tree pruning.

Such pruning puts enormous stress on the plants. This makes them vulnerable and they may die prematurely. This is why the recommendations of a certified arborist are useful in making this decision. If severe tree pruning is not required, it is best to know: your trees will thank you for it. So, contact us, Emondage Rimouski, at 581-506-5131, so that we can accompany you in this step where the best thing to do is not always obvious.

Tree pruning (regular)

Regular tree pruning can prevent a severe pruning or a subsequent felling. Every action taken today on a tree is decisive for its development. So, it is important to weigh your choices.

When he works, the tree pruner takes the time to study the shape of the plant in front of him. He tries to locate the useless branches, the only ones he will cut. Either those which are broken, sick or dead. Little by little, under the shears, the branch structure becomes stronger. The risk of branches falling off by themselves is reduced. That saves the owner a lot of worry! Less chance of people being injured or property being damaged.

The tree pruner works to redirect a problematic development trajectory in time or to prevent it from getting too close to structures that could be damaged. It is also possible to control somewhat the projection of shadow or the passage of light in order to better serve the functions of various living spaces arranged on the ground.  

The cutting of branches clears a specimen and this gesture favors the arboricultural growth. Even in the case of a fruit tree, it will provide more fruit. Finally, tree pruning makes a plant more robust and it embellishes it thanks to the neat look that it will then give off.

Everyone dreams of having beautifully maintained trees. However, each species has its own needs. It is best to call on our tree pruners, who master the knowledge and know-how required for all our tree care services, in the best interest of your plants and yours.​
