Young trees pruning

This type of cutting is practised on the young trees so that they develop a strong structure. It allows them to build a strong trunk and well-spaced branches. The appropriate measures being done in their young years will prevent corrective or expensive pruning when they are mature.

Regular pruning and trimming

This type of cutting is practised at the extremities of branches. It slows down the length growth of the branches and increases slightly the density of the foliage. Proper technique is essential.

Safety pruning

This type of cutting is needed on the trees which carry branches that are dangerous, dead, diseased or broken. These branches can present a risk for people, automobiles, buildings and infrastructures.

Clearance pruning

This pruning is essential. This type of cutting is practised when tree limbs are near power lines or buildings or paths with the aim of letting the tree and its other branches grow in safer places.

Health care pruning

This type of cutting is practised to the whole tree. The dead, sick, harmful or broken branches and the stubs will be eliminated or removed.

Natural symmetric trimming

This type of cutting is practised to the whole tree. The unsightly or interfering branches will be eliminated while taking care of pruning the parts which deform the symmetry of the tree. This will be done in a way to allow the tree to keep its natural shape suited to its species of tree.

Thinning

This cutting consists in eliminating a quantity of leaves and branches inside the tree to allow more luminosity.

Raising

The raising consists in eliminating the branches at the bottom for clearance, horizon seeing or for aesthetic effects, depending of the tree location on the landscape.

Surgery

The surgery consists in cutting and in cleaning the wounds which are on or under the bark of trees.

Bracing

The bracing is an operation that helps to bind trunks, branches, trunk and branch together that show some signs that a tear or a break is imminent. There are several kinds of tree cabling or bracing systems : screws and steel cables can be used but this type of equipment provokes damages on a long period of time. Furthermore, it is necessary to consider that in a few years, the metal parts will disappear being covered completely by the bark of the tree and will become a risk for the pruner who will make the next intervention. That is why ARBRES BONNE SANTÉ prefers to use the tree cabling system BOA or COBRA.

Cutting down trees

With this operation, we remove completely a tree which became a risk. It is important to verify with your district or municipality if a permit for the removal of trees is needed because most of them requires one.

Shredding

This operation requires a shredder which reduces branches to reusable shavings. Limbs may be kept for firewood. Wood chips from your trees may be used also as mulch.

Stump removal

This operation is made with a stump removal device which reduces the stump to wood chips. However, you have to inform us where are located the underground utilities such as electric, water, sewer and telephone lines, if any.
