Why Topping Hurts Trees

Topping is the indiscriminate cutting back of tree branches to stubs or lateral branches that are not large enough to assume the terminal role. Other names for topping include “heading,” “hat-racking,” and “rounding over.”

The most common reason given for topping is to reduce the size of a tree. Often homeowners feel that their trees have become too large for their property. People fear that tall tress may pose a hazard. Topping, however, is not a viable method of height reduction and certainly does not reduce the hazard. In fact, topping will make a tree more hazardous in the long term.

Here are 5 key reasons why not to top trees:
  • Topping Causes Decay
  • Topping Can Lead to Sunburn
  • Topping Creates Hazards
  • Topping Makes Trees Ugly
  • Hidden Costs of Topping

It’s best to cut trees down in segments, removing branches from bottom to top, if too tall to take down with one cut. The image gallery below shows the removal process we went through on one of our recent projects.

Time to take that tree down?

Mature trees can improve your property, but if too close to the main windows in your home it can really make the interior dark. This was the case with a recent client – one of their evergreens was taking over the front yard, casting a lot of darkness and they wanted to brighten up their living space.

Pruning and shaping your spruce trees can really enhance the curb appeal of your home

Many folks have spruce trees they love and let them grow without special help or intervention. But other property owners don’t want them growing naturally as they mature, overtaking their yard. They simply prefer a more manicured look that contains the size and fullness.

Removing Dead Trees

There are many reasons for removing dead trees.

Aerial-Tree-Service-Dead-Tree RemovalFirst and foremost, a large dead tree on your property can be a safety hazard to your family and property. Dead trees are more easily blown over in a wind storms. This can cause damage to soffits and larger trees can do structural damage to shingles and roof support systems. Rotting or brittle limbs can snap off and break windows or harm passers by.

Falling trees may also carry a financial burden. Not just for removal but if the tree damages a neighbours property or home you may be liable for the repair to their property as well as the removal.

Many times trees die from disease. The sooner you remove the dead tree the better the chance that the disease will not spread to other trees on your property. A common Canadian disease is Dutch Elm disease. Dutch Elm disease is a fungal disease of elms. The fungus is spread by a beetle whose larvae burrow under the outer bark. The damage eventually kills the tree and can spread to surrounding like trees.

Last but not least dead trees are definitely not aesthetically pleasing. This is not an immediate removal issue but for the look of your property, especially if you are trying to sell your home, a dead tree is usually a concern if not a deal breaker.

If you have a dead tree that you need safely removed give us a call 403-293-3416 for immediate professional service.
