Arborists are often called upon to assess and work toward resolution of structural defects in trees. It is often not possible to completely eliminate these defects, but there is a variety of strategies available to mitigate risk posed by them. At Out on a Limb we strive to rectify most structural issues by making intelligent, proactive pruning decisions. In many cases however, pruning isn't enough to achieve an acceptable level of safety and other techniques like cabling, bracing or very occasionally propping need to be used.
An arborist can determine the types of pruning necessary to maintain or improve the health, appearance, and safety of trees. Hedges are often maintained by tree companies, especially when accessing the work requires tall ladders or the amount of material generated requires a chipper. Although we prefer tree preservation to removal, there are often situations where removal is really the only feasible option. We have a Certified Tree Risk Assessor on staff to help determine the appropriate course of action.
