Tree Pruning FAQs
How do I know if my tree needs pruning?
Look for dead or broken branches, excessive leaning, limbs close to power lines, or heavy overgrowth blocking sunlight.
Can pruning save a sick or damaged tree?
Yes, in many cases. Proper pruning removes diseased limbs and helps the tree focus energy on healthy growth.
How often should I prune my trees?
Most trees benefit from pruning every 3–5 years, but it depends on the species, age, and condition of the tree.
Is tree pruning safe to do myself?
Not usually—especially for large trees. Professional pruning ensures safety, proper technique, and prevents harm to the tree.

What Our Customers Are Saying
Darlene Bryant
Talked with Freedom Tree Care early in the week. They came by to take a look at our project of tree trimming and a stump removal. They presented a very reasonable estimate within less than 8 hours . We approved and they set up a time to come do the trim. WOW! this all done within a few days! Very professional and knowledgeable as well as personable. Eric and Andrew did a great job. We only have to wait for the gas/water/electric lines to be marked to get our stump leveled. They even smooth out, add dirt and apply grass seed if requested. Doesn't get any better than that! We will definitely be referring them to family, friends and neighbors! We are already thinking of other projects! Make sure you give them a call today! You won't be sorry!

Eric was very professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. He did a great job trimming up a tree that had a lot of wind damage, and left the area very tidy. I highly recommend Eric and the services of the Freedom Tree Care company.
Marietta Denniston
Just had the guys from Freedom come and remove the ‘killer limb’ that lurked completely over my roof, front to back. They also took out some dead sections of the tree and now it is growing straight up, not drooping over the house. Then, after chipping the large chunks, they raked and cleaned up all the small trash too and the yard was cleaner when they left than when they arrived. Great work, only took a couple hours, very safety-minded and careful. Would definitely recommend!
C Smith
They were knowledgeable about all trees and the care each needed. They were timely and cleaned up after themselves.
Emmali Elsner
Eric did a great job removing a limb that was overcrowding our pine trees! He was responsive, got us on the schedule quickly, and was easy to work with. Would recommend for any tree care needs!!
