Trimming/Pruning

When your trees go unattended and grow out of control or leave piles of brush, it's a good idea do maintenance.  Removing dead wood and hazardous limbs is usually what's necessary to keep your tree healthy and your yard safe!

Tree Removal/Stump Grinding

Often times trees can become hazardous when they're leaning over your property or growing into power lines.  They can also fall victim to infestation and disease.  If  your tree requires inspection and possible removal,  schedule a free estimate.

Emergency Storm Damage

Storms may cause limbs or entire trees to fall or uproot, often landing on homes, cars, or other structures.  If this is the case, it's important to remedy this situation immediately to prevent any further property damage.  For immediate service, please text my cell at 724-290-9397.

Frequently Asked Questions

Wearing steel spikes while trimming or pruning will pierce tree bark and puncture vital tree tissue.  Open wounds can lead to sap ooze and allow entry for decay causing fungi and wood-boring insects (especially pines). Northern Arborist uses alternative methods to ascend and climb that comply with industry standards.  These modern tequniques ensure that the best possible care is taken.

When is the best time to trim trees?

When is the best time to trim trees?

Dormant-season between fall and spring is the best time to prune trees such as Oak.  Pruning them during the wrong time can cause Oak Wilt which is spread by pests that are attracted to fresh cuts in the wood.   However, there are trees that are best pruned in mid-summer such as Maple, Birch, and Walnut.  These trees typically ooze sap, so it's best to prune them when they have less sap flowing and have sufficient time to heal.
