Tree trimmer and pruner in LavalTree pruning and trimming are among our most popular tree care services at Emondage Laval Pro. But a pruning can be regular, and then soft, or severe. So, different techniques are involved. Obviously, in both cases, branches are cut off. However, the way to do it is quite different. Let's look at that.
Difference between regular and severe pruningIn summary, pruning, in its current or usual version, is a technique that is practiced with concern for the health of the specimens involved. The work is therefore thought out beforehand in order to ensure this. It is important over time to take into account the development of the plant. The gestures operated are meticulous, thoughtful, precautionary. What is cut is cut for a reason that helps the tree. It is the same for the trimming of the trees.
Moreover, in pruning and trimming trees, the cuts are made with the express purpose of protecting the health of the tree. It is a way of doing things that is simply part of the technique. However, the owner may wish to beautify his tree or control its height or the shade it casts. |

The pruning, when it becomes severe, on the other hand, goes to the most urgent. We want to protect the safety of people or the material integrity of goods, buildings, infrastructure or free up passageways or traffic. The quantity to be cut is enormous; the cut supposes to remove a great proportion of branches or to carry out a topping, which is not without risk for the woody specimen. This is not without risk for the tree, which is under stress and may not be well for a long time after a severe pruning, or may never recover. But the objectives justify the drastic nature of the operation. For example, electrical wires or buildings will not be damaged because a large plant has been allowed to spread its branches at will. There is an imperative behind the action taken. Arboricultural health is therefore relegated to the background.
Severe pruning
So why do severe pruning? It is done when regular pruning is not sufficient to achieve the desired goal and when tree removal is not necessary. It is the lesser evil. The pruner will therefore remove a large part of the crown of a plant, because a city or Hydro-Quebec has required it, for example, to avoid damage to public infrastructures. The intervention can also be used to protect one's own roof, one's car, a neighbouring house... The rubbing or the weight of branches can do a lot of harm. It is also possible that a large section of tree must be cut to make work or improvements feasible. Finally, if traffic on a sidewalk or street could become unsafe because of branches, they might as well be removed!
Severe pruning puts trees under real shock or stress. They suffer significantly. Some may die. That's why it's important to seek the recommendations of a certified arborist in order to proceed with full knowledge of the facts.

Pruning
Pruning in its usual gentle version is a technique that can avoid a later severe pruning or even a future felling. As mentioned, it is performed with the impact on the tree in mind.
The pruner takes the time to examine the look of a plant. In doing so, he targets unnecessary branches, which can be removed without problems, either broken, diseased or dead. He will also take care to give the tree a nice regular shape. The specimen is strengthened by removing its most fragile elements. Its growth is much better under such assiduity. Even in the case of fruit trees, the production is more abundant. The tree will also be more beautiful. Give your trees all this and call us at 450-233-6371.
The growth of the tree is under better control, avoiding damage to constructions or infrastructures in the future. The pruner can therefore gradually direct undesirable development paths. He can also take care to control the size of the tree so that at maturity its shadow does not hide sectors that should remain bright. A vegetable garden for example.
Your trees deserve attention. We know what is appropriate for each species. Our pruners perform their work according to the rules of the art to achieve the best harmony between human desires and the needs of trees.
