WAKE FOREST, NC • ZEBULON, NC • RALEIGH, NC • CLAYTON, NC • GARNER, NC • CARY, NC

Expertise in trimming and pruning is at the heart of every successful tree service company. Henry’s Tree Service provides tree trimming and pruning for home and business owners throughout Wake Forest, Zebulon, Raleigh, Clayton, Garner, Cary, Knightdale, NC, and the greater Triangle area. Every property owner with any vegetation will at times need to remove dead, obstructing, and unsightly branches from their trees or shrubs.

Some homeowners assume that trimming and pruning are things they can handle on their own, but they soon realize they are in over their heads. Only an expert will know what time of year a specific tree needs to be attended to, how to keep it healthy while removing large pieces, and the techniques and equipment needed to properly prune that tree. Trying to manage all this on your own can damage the tree or, even worse, create a dangerous hazard for people and property. In the event your tree is overhanging your property, diseased, or dead, we also offer tree removal and emergency tree services. Contact us today to request a free estimate on your project!

AN ART AND A SCIENCE

Tree maintenance is an art and a science. Scientifically, it’s essential to understand the biology of the tree and the necessary timing. For instance, most people think that spring and summer would be the best time to trim or prune branches. In actuality, for any trees other than fruit or flowering trees, it can be dangerous to trim or prune at any time other than winter. Warm-weather pruning may leave open wounds that are vulnerable to infestation from insects and susceptible to diseases.

It is an art because trimming and pruning take an experienced and creative eye to solve problems in the best way. Only those who have worked on hundreds of trees and shrubs can identify the problem branches, see which areas are less robust and need help filling out, understand which need to be cut back, and know which should be left alone to create the best shape and healthiest result.

Finally, you should bring in an expert for a proper trim or prune because only an expert will have the proper equipment. A homeowner might think that their loppers will do the job for a smaller tree or shrub. But poorly maintained loppers can cause permanent damage.

At Henry’s Tree Service, we have properly maintained smaller equipment like handsaws, pole saws, clippers, shears, and hooks. We also have equipment for much larger jobs, including lifts, large power tools, bucket trucks, chippers, and other necessary equipment to handle the largest of trees.

Bottom line, if you have any trimming or pruning needs in the greater Triangle area (Knightdale, Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill, Wake Forest, Cary), Henry’s Tree Service has the expertise to ensure the safety, beauty, and health of your trees and shrubs.
