Redmond Tree Pruning Services

Hey there, Redmond! 🌳 Let’s talk about tree pruning. It’s not just about chopping away branches. Bad cuts can lead to rot, weak growth, and a yard that looks more chaotic than charming. At Neat & Tidy, we specialize in targeted, structural cuts that keep your trees thriving, safe, and stunning—without ever resorting to the dreaded topping.


What’s Bugging Your Trees?

Is your yard showing signs of tree trouble? Here’s what to look out for:

  • Branches scraping against roofs, gutters, or even your car?
  • Low limbs blocking sidewalks, driveways, or that breathtaking view?
  • Dead branches overhead that could turn hazardous in a storm?
  • Overgrown laurels and privets that have become hedge beasts?
  • Fruit trees that are either barren or breaking under the weight of too much fruit?
  • Previous bad cuts or topping that need a professional touch?

Important Note: We do not work near primary power lines; those jobs require coordination with the utility company, and we’ll keep you informed if that’s the case.


Our Pruning Process

Here’s how we’ll beautify and maintain your trees:

  • Crown Cleaning: We remove dead, diseased, or rubbing limbs, boosting health and safety.
  • Raising: We elevate low branches for better clearance, making your property more accessible.
  • Thinning (Selective): Allowing more light and air into your trees reduces mildew and promotes strong growth.
  • Reduction (Not Topping): We shorten branches to laterals, maintaining the crown’s integrity while managing size.
  • Restoration: We’ll repair the damage done by previous bad cuts over multiple visits.
  • Fruit Trees: We ensure a bountiful harvest with winter structure shaping and summer size control.
  • Hedges & Screens: We craft crisp lines and tight shapes—no scalping here!

Seasonal Pruning Tips

  • Winter (Leaf-Off): The best time for structural work and spotting deadwood.
  • Late Spring/Early Summer: Perfect for light reduction and clearance after new growth.
  • Summer: Ideal for size control on vigorous growers like laurel and willow.
  • After Flowering: Prune spring bloomers after they flower to promote next year’s blooms.

We don’t use shears on trees; they’re for hedges. Our trees receive hand cuts at the collar—every single time.


Our Annual Maintenance Plan

Keep your yard looking fabulous year-round with our annual maintenance plan, which includes:

  • Clearance Reset: Perfect for roofs, walks, and those gorgeous views.
  • Deadwood & Hazard Checks: Prepping your trees for storm season.
  • Light Structural Tune-Ups: Minimal heavy cuts to promote health.
  • Hedge Calendar: Keeping those screens looking tight without unsightly bald patches.
  • Fruit Tree Schedule: Winter shaping and summer thinning to ensure strong branches.

We’re all about low-maintenance landscaping! The goal? Clean structure now means fewer problems down the road!


Choose Your Service Cadence

Select the schedule that suits you best:

  • Quarterly: Spring and fall deep cleans, plus two maintenance visits.
  • Bi-Monthly: Ideal for fast-growing trees and hedges.

(Have some major restorations or unruly hedges? Start with monthly visits for 60-90 days, then taper down.)


What’s Included in Annual Maintenance

With our annual maintenance, you’ll enjoy:

  • A walkthrough & plan outlining what needs attention, potential hazards, and necessary clearance.
  • Clean cuts at branch collars—no stubs, no painting.
  • Hedge shaping using string lines for perfectly straight edges.
  • Fruit tree thinning to ensure limbs can bear fruit without breaking.
  • Thorough debris chipping/hauling and meticulous cleanup of your hardscapes.

Why Annual Maintenance is Key

Curious why our annual maintenance is so important? Here’s the scoop:

  • Safety: We take care of dead/hanging limbs and roof rubs before storms hit.
  • Tree Health: Better airflow and sunlight mean fewer diseases and pests.
  • Structure: Early, small cuts are much kinder than late, large cuts (and those hefty bills).
  • Curb Appeal: Well-balanced crowns and sharp hedges enhance your home’s charm!

Getting started is a breeze:

  1. Free Estimate: Send us photos or schedule a quick walkthrough for transparent pricing.
  2. Set Your Schedule: Choose quarterly, bi-monthly, or monthly for hedges and fruit trees.
  3. Pruning Day: We’ll focus on targeted cuts, hedge shaping, fruit thinning, and a thorough cleanup.
  4. Follow-Up: You’ll receive care notes and a plan for the next visit to keep growth in check.
