CANOPY WEIGHT REDUCTION AND DEAD TREE REMOVAL

WOODINVILLE • REDMOND • KIRKLAND • BELLEVUE • SEATTLE

What It Is: Reducing the overall volume of a tree’s canopy to reduce the risk of damage to property and encourage continued healthy growth. 

Canopy weight reduction is the selective removal of branches in the tree’s canopy and is commonly done to accommodate for wind or other severe weather conditions. Done correctly, it can help reduce natural strains on a tree. Done incorrectly—such as “topping” off a tree—it can cause permanent damage. Progression Tree Care is highly experienced in knowing when canopy weight reduction can be a benefit or a detriment to a tree and can make recommendations based on your own situation.

Deadwood removal—or dead wooding—is the extrication of branches that have died. If not removed, the branch will decay and could break off and damage nearby property or cause personal injury. This is especially hazardous for trees that border common areas, such as sidewalks, streets,  gardens, or other public gathering spaces. Unlike pruning, dead wooding can be performed throughout the year as needed. Once the branches have been removed, Progression Tree Care will dispose of them for you, so you won’t need to worry about additional clean up. The importance of the practice to the safety of your property underscores the value of having routine tree risk assessments performed by the certified tree risk assessors at Progression Tree Care.
