Exceeding expectations, not budgets
Book deadwood removal today to protect your trees, your landscaping and your property.
Trees are some of the best features on any property. As they mature, they need the right care to stay healthy and safe. Branch trimming, mulching and deadwood removal are all part of the maintenance your trees need, and all jobs for experienced landscaping professionals.
Deadwood removal matters most for older, maturing trees. As a tree ages, the outer layer of wood and bark can decay and turn brittle. You will see the bark peeling off the trunk and branches, and dead limbs that are ready to drop.
Deadwood is more than an eyesore. A falling limb is a real safety hazard to your home, your family and anyone nearby. Clearing deadwood and pruning mature trees is one of the best ways to keep your yard healthy and safe. The team at Top Cuts Tree Service and Landscaping removes deadwood the right way to restore the health and look of your trees.
Deadwood forms when a maturing tree loses nutrients or only gets sunlight on one side. The affected wood dies, the bark peels away from the trunk and branches, and those limbs stop growing. Any tree can develop deadwood, and most will at some point.
Branches heavy with deadwood turn brittle and are liable to snap and fall. A dropping limb can hurt someone walking below or damage whatever is under the tree. Clearing the deadwood is one of the few ways to get ahead of that risk.
Deadwooding is the process of removing and trimming the dead limbs out of a tree. Our team uses proper climbing gear and cutting techniques to take out the deadwood without harming the living tree. The result is a safer, healthier and better-looking tree.
Here is why deadwooding is worth doing, and why it belongs in the hands of a pro.
A safer property. Removing dead and brittle limbs takes away the biggest risk a mature tree poses, a branch coming down on your home, car or family.
Healthier trees. Clearing deadwood lets the tree put its energy into healthy growth and stops decay from spreading.
Better curb appeal. A tree with no dead, bare limbs looks fuller and cleaner and lifts the whole yard.
Early problem spotting. When we are up in the canopy, we catch disease, pests and weak joints before they turn into a bigger, costlier job.
Protects the rest of your landscape. Falling limbs crush shrubs, beds and fences below. Taking out the deadwood protects what is growing underneath.
Storm readiness. Dead limbs are the first to come down in wind and ice. Clearing them now means less damage and cleanup after the next storm.

Deadwooding is the removal of dead, dying and broken branches from a living tree. A trained climber works through the canopy and cuts out the deadwood without harming the healthy parts of the tree. It makes the tree safer and healthier and improves how it looks.
Look for bare branches with no leaves in season, bark peeling off the limbs, and dead wood that snaps easily. If you see large dead limbs over your house, driveway or yard, it is time to call a pro. We will take a look during a free estimate.
It can be. Dead limbs are brittle and drop without warning, especially in wind, rain or ice. A falling branch can injure someone or damage your property. Removing deadwood is one of the most effective ways to reduce that risk.
No. Done correctly, deadwooding helps the tree. We only cut out the dead and dying wood, which lets the tree focus its energy on healthy growth. Proper cuts and techniques protect the living branches and the trunk.
