New Orleans Tree Trimming with Big Easy Tree Removal

New Orleans tree pruning operations are the most frequently practiced tree service of all tree works. This is because trees remain to be an important part of a residential, commercial, government property, or community landscape around the state.

Wherever you are in the Pelican State, landscapers typically have trees as one of the dominant features. This is no surprise since Louisiana has an abundance of great native and exotic trees to select from for home and commercial property landscapes.

Great examples of popular landscape trees in Louisiana are the Southern live oak, Southern magnolia, or bald cypress. The Southern live oak, though majestic in stature, sometimes grows too large and spreads, hence, when it is used for a home landscape, it needs tree trimming.

Tree Trimming Work By Big Easy Tree Removal

We do different types of tree pruning according to your tree needs. Our tree technicians are licensed in the State of Louisiana and provide the best tree-trimming tools.

Here is what you can expect from the pruning work that we do:

Formative Pruning

We do tree trimming in New Orleans for the aerial growth of a tree in its youth to result in an appearance considered typical for the species or variety of trees concerned.

It’s normally carried out to young trees with the aim of promoting safe, strong, healthy, and well-balanced trees without defects when they become mature.

Our pruning work includes:

  • Removing branches that are competing, crossing, rubbing, or deformed.
  • Selecting the most suitable single stem from double leaders.
  • Removing epicormic and basal growth, damaged branches, or any branches that may become weak and cause problems when the tree matures

Dead-Wooding

We perform dead wooding which is the removal of all dead, dying, or diseased branch wood, including broken branches or stubs left from previous surgery operations, found within the crown of the tree.

Crown Lifting

Part of the tree trimming services that we do in New Orleans is the removal of soft growth and lower branches to increase vertical clearance beneath the canopy.

Crown lifting is something we perform in phases over a number of years, especially in mature or old trees like those found in historical sites in New Orleans, LA.

Our skilled tree technicians cut back branches to the stem carefully enough not to remove more than 15% of the live crown height. We make sure that the remaining live crown should make up at least two-thirds of the height of the tree.

Thinning

Thinning is one of the most popular tree-trimming services that we do for our clients in New Orleans.

It involves the removal of secondary live woody branches from within the crown to reduce its density.

This process leaves a balanced tree with even growth throughout. The woody branches are removed systematically from throughout the tree rather than from the inner crown only.

Crown Reduction and Reshaping

Our objective for crown reduction and reshaping is to lessen the overall loading on a defective branch or stem. We reduce the crown’s overall size or selected areas to reshape asymmetrical crowns.

This will alleviate stress, allow retention of a tree within a confined space, create the desired appearance, or make your tree more suited to its surroundings.

Coppicing

We perform coppicing to remove all growth of a tree or shrub to a point close to ground level. The stumps are left with the purpose of producing a quantity of vigorous basal shoots from the retained stump.

Pollarding

hand holding a plant - Big Easy Tree RemovalWhen you want your tree to produce a number of vigorous shoots, we can remove all the growth back to the main stem.

We do initial pollarding by cutting the new branches on a cyclical basis. The frequency of the cycle will depend on the site management objectives, species, age, or condition.

We are careful to cut allowing some of the pre-existing foliage to be retained in order to reduce the probability of dieback or death and to maintain physiological function.

Careful, Safe, and Cost-Effective Tree Trimming

Whatever your purpose for tree trimming in New Orleans—improving the structure of the tree, removing dangerous or defective branches, reduction of shading, and other reasons—we take extra care in removing branches.

Our careful, safe, and cost-effective tree-trimming cost process involves the prevention of disease entering the tree via wounds that are left behind or the reduction of the vitality of your tree due to the excessive volume of leaves that are removed.

Our distinctive range of tree trimming services applies to residential, commercial, and government properties all over New Orleans, Louisiana area.
