Q: Is it OK to top a tree?

It is never good to remove too much of the tree's crown. Some trees will not survive a "topping", and others will regenerate, but this growth is weak and elongated and causes deterioration from insects and water. It is possible to do a light crown reduction on some species like Sycamore, Soft Maple, or Elm, but never on a hard-wood species, i.e., Oak.

Q: How does trimming and pruning help my trees?

Removing dead wood allows the cambium (new annual growth ring) to grow and close this area from insects and the elements. Opening up the canopy by removing smaller, unwanted and unnecessary branches that cross other limbs and allows air movement for wind pressing during a storm is called ventilating. Also, by removing lower branches for clearance issues promotes growth from the root system to other desired areas.

Q: Why do trees die in new neighborhoods?

Compaction of the soil from heavy construction equipment prevents the root system from getting water and air.
