Benefits of tree pruning

Through professional pruning, problematic trees can be retained instead of completely removed from a property. There is also a host of reasons why pruning trees is more beneficial:

Health

Pruning removes branches that are diseased, broken, or dead from an otherwise healthy trees. By removing these branches, the possibility of decay-producing fungi spreading to the healthier areas of the tree is eliminated. Strategically pruning healthy branches also improves air circulation within the canopy and allows the tree to be better exposed to sunlight.

Safety

Professional tree pruning also helps in avoiding damaging trees during a storm and eliminates the risk of falling branches. This is particularly useful when the tree is situated near the house, along a pedestrian path, a driveway, and other structures, or has long hanging branches that can cause inconvenience.

Structural integrity and aesthetics

When a tree is still young, pruning can help ensure that it grows to have an ideal branch architecture and proper structural integrity. In the long run, this minimizes the need to provide structural support for the tree as it develops.

On the other hand, when a tree is mature, strategic pruning can help maintain its appearance even when its characteristic form has somewhat deteriorated.
