Tree lacing is a method of pruning trees so that the tree admits light and air through its canopy or crown. Tree lacing and overall pruning is done for safety, health and visual appeal, while also reducing pest problems and dangerous branches.

Pest Reduction
Benefits of Tree Lacing
Improved Tree Health
By thinning out a tree's canopy, tree lacing allows better airflow, reducing the risk of diseases caused by stagnant moisture. Increased air circulation can mitnimize the development of fungi and other harmful organisms that thrive in dense foliage.
Visual Appeal
Lacing improves the appearance of trees by shaping their canopy, giving them a more balanced and visually appealing form. This method is particularly beneficial for ornamental trees in landscapes and urban settings.
Safety and Risk Reduction
Regular lacing reduces the chances of branch failure, especially during storms or heavy winds. Removing weak, diseased, or dead branches minimizes the risk of falling limbs, thereby increasing safety for nearby structures and individuals.
Increased Sunlight Penetration
Thinning the canopy allows more sunlight to reach the tree’s interior and the surrounding landscape. This facilitates better growth of understory plants and grass, contributing to a healthier ecosystem.
Techniques We Usefor Tree Lacing
Identify Target Branches
We start by inspecting the tree and identifying branches that need removal. With a focus on eliminating crowded, weak, or intersecting branches that impede airflow or compromise the tree’s structure.
Use Proper Tools
Using appropriate pruning tools such as hand pruners, loppers, and pruning saws. We make sure they are sharp and clean to make precise cuts and minimize damage to the tree.
Follow Pruning Best Practices
Our arborists make cuts at the branch collar, the swollen area where the branch meets the trunk, to facilitate quicker healing and prevent disease entry. We avoid leaving stubs or causing unnecessary wounds.
Prioritize Safety
Our team prioritizes safety measures while performing tree lacing. Using proper personal protective equipment (PPE), assessing the surroundings for potential hazards.
Every employee is experienced with climbing or using a crane (if needed). Trees, like all other living things, will respond to their environment. When trees grow without restrictions such as trimming and natural barriers, they may grow asymmetrically and cause safety issues for your home and others. It's important to understand trimming also helps keep trees away from buildings and power lines, preventing damage and outages.
