Tree Service in Marietta

Marietta's older neighborhoods are known for their tree-lined streets, and that mature canopy is worth protecting. A lot of the work here is careful pruning that keeps big old trees healthy and safe.

Mature canopy over older streets

The trees that shade Marietta’s older streets have been there a long time, and they are exactly the kind that reward good care and suffer from bad. As a big tree ages it grows deadwood, its canopy gets heavy over the roof, and low limbs start crowding the drive and sidewalk. The right pruning clears all of that without harming the tree.

The wrong pruning, topping, over-thinning, or cutting into the wrong place, does long-term damage to a tree that took decades to grow. That is why the pruning is planned by our certified arborist and done with cuts that let the tree seal and heal.

Pruning by an arborist's plan

A mature Marietta tree is not the place for guesswork with a chainsaw. Over-thinning stresses a tree, and topping a big hardwood can leave it weaker and more dangerous than before. Robin looks at each tree and prunes to a plan that fits its species, age, and situation.

If a storm has left a big limb hung up in one of those street trees, do not try to reach it. Keep clear, stay away from any line, and call or text our 24-hour line.

Tree service in Marietta: common questions

Can you prune the big trees over my older Marietta street without hurting them?

Yes, that is the whole point of pruning to a plan. We clear deadwood, lift low limbs, and thin where needed with cuts that let the tree heal, and we never top a mature tree. Robin plans it by species and age.

How often should a mature tree be pruned?

Most big trees do well on a several-year cycle, with deadwood or hazard limbs handled as they appear. Robin can look at yours and suggest a sensible interval rather than cutting more than needed.

Do you do storm cleanup in Marietta?

Yes. Marietta's tall street trees can drop big limbs in a storm. If something is hung up over a house or the road, call or text the 24-hour line and keep clear until we arrive.
