Topping
Cutting the top off refers to the practice of removing the top portion of a tree’s canopy, typically to control its size or shape. However, this practice is highly discouraged in the arborist community due to the harm it can cause to trees. Topping can lead to a range of issues, including stress, decay, and an higher risk of disease and pest infestations. At our company, we do not recommend topping as a viable option for tree management. Rather, our arborists are trained to utilize proper pruning techniques that preserve tree health and promote proper growth. We work closely with our customers to understand their tree management goals and provide expert guidance on the best practices to achieve them, while also prioritizing the health and safety of their trees.
