Service FAQ
Canopy Raising questions.
Why raise a tree canopy?
Canopy raising can improve clearance, visibility, mowing access, driveway access, and the overall shape of the tree from the ground.
Is canopy raising the same as removing a tree?
No. Canopy raising keeps the tree in place while selectively removing lower branches that interfere with the use of the property.
