Your tree looks crowded, a few branches rub together, and some limbs look weak. You want to keep the tree, but you want it healthy and safe. Pruning is the careful kind of trimming that helps a tree grow strong. Toms Tree Services prunes trees in Marquette with clean cuts that help them stay healthy for years.
When Do You Need Tree Pruning?
Pruning helps when a tree has dead or broken branches, limbs that cross and rub, weak forks, or growth that is too thick. Young trees benefit too, since early pruning helps them grow a strong shape.
In the U.P., heavy lake-effect snow and ice load every branch. Weak or crowded limbs are the ones that snap. Pruning out weak wood before winter lowers the chance of breakage when Lake Superior wind storms hit.
Do not wait until a branch fails. Small cuts now are better for the tree than big cuts later. Many trees can be pruned in late fall or winter when they are dormant, which fits our short summer season well.
We prune for homeowners and property owners in Marquette, Negaunee, Ishpeming, Gwinn and all of Marquette County. Fruit trees, shade trees and evergreens all do better with the right cuts at the right time. If you are not sure what your tree needs, we can look and explain it in plain words.
How the Job Works, Step by Step
It starts with you. Call 906-236-9567 or send the form with your name, phone number and address. Lucas will call you back to set a time to look at the tree.
Then we come out and look at the job. We look at the shape of the tree and pick which branches to remove. We cut just outside the branch collar so the tree can seal the wound, and we do not take off more than the tree needs.
After that, you get a free estimate. There is no trip fee for the visit and no pressure to say yes. If you want to go ahead, we set up the work with you. When we finish, we clean up the branches.
How Much Does Tree Pruning Cost?
Pruning costs depend on the size of the tree, how many branches need work, and whether we need to climb or use a lift. Access to the tree, distance, and how much cleanup you want also matter. The estimate is free, and there is no trip fee.
When we give you the estimate, we go over what it covers, such as hauling the branches away or chipping them. That way you can pick what fits your needs and budget.
