"Very pleased with the extensive work Crowder Tree Specialist performed on our property. While initially called in to do some light trimming and brush & debris removal, a more thorough inspection was made by Olga and Martine. We walked the full property (almost 2 acres) and in addition to the work at hand, the brought to our attention quite a few other conditions of which we were previously unaware. For example, they quickly spotted the severely overgrown oak dangerously reaching across the road and powerlines à ¢à  à  although this I knew about but for which I had been postponing a fix. It became a viable and desperately needed addition to the other work at hand (including some massive other unsafe overgrowth). They identified these and several other situations and then offered a bid on the additional work. The cost of the job exceeded our initial expectations no little, but being relatively new to the property, due to years of neglect the scope of work was also far beyond what we had initially realized. I believe the cost to be quite reasonable considering the sheer volume of work. Despite a few minor bumps along the way, communication was clear and responsible. When the time came for the work to commence, we were amazed by the skill and efficiency demonstrated by Olga, Martine and their crew. They made short work out of what turned out to be many truckloads of old debris and cuttings, cleared previously unmanageable undergrowth and took care of the old and ailing oaks. They found and cleared up problems I didnà ¢à  à  t even know existed. I can scarcely imagine anyone else providing such great service for the cost. In just a few days they quickly and efficiently tamed the property as well as tending to most of the damaged, hazardous and stressed trees. Overall, Crowder Tree provided amazing service at a reasonable price, we will certainly be having them back to take our property to the next level. - Randy & Norma"

Arborists questions, answered by experts

You should avoid cutting off the top of mature cherry trees. This process is called tree topping, and it’s not recommended for cherry trees—or any trees, for that matter. Tree topping removes between one-third to half of the length of the tree trunk, resulting in structurally unsound, fruitless suckers. The only exception is for saplings. Young pie, sour, and tart cherry trees that are over 30 inches tall in the fall or winter before the tree blooms can benefit from heading cuts.

Generally speaking, you’ll want to avoid flush cuts, which are cuts made as extremely close to the trunk or main branch. These cuts can weaken your tree, lower its natural defense mechanisms, and even cause decay. You’ll also want to avoid tree topping, which is the total removal of the leader and upper main branches of a tree. 

Most pros will advise against either of these methods, which is why hiring a pro is often the best choice when it comes to tree trimming.

Completely topping a plum tree is a risky business. Cut too much, and you’ll kill your tree. That said, you do need to trim the top of your tree to encourage bushy growth, maintain your tree’s vase shape, and limit size. 

A plum tree's central leader (or trunk) should never extend more than 3 feet above the highest branch. When you first plant your tree, cut the central leader so it’s 2 to 3 feet tall. As it grows, cut it back 12 to 20 inches until it reaches its desired height. Never prune more than one-third of the new growth.

If a tree isn’t pruned, it can inhibit proper growth and fruit production, cause damage to both the tree and your property, and create entry points for pests and diseases. Pruning a tree enhances its stability, appearance, shape, and growth. Pruning trees regularly can also save you money long-term by avoiding overgrown or dangerous dying trees.

Yes, it can be good to remove dead branches from trees. Dead branches can lead to rot in other areas of the tree. They can also cause damage if they fall on a house, shed, fence, car, pool, or other structure or property. However, it’s important that dead branch removal is done safely. If the branch is high in a tree or requires a lift or ladder to access, consider calling a professional tree removal company, as they will have the experience and equipment to do the job safely.
