tree crown reduction 9

My old maple was getting too tall and lopsided, so this spring I finally had a tree crown reduction done. The arborist removed about a third of the upper branches, carefully cutting back the longest limbs to healthier side branches. It looks so much better—less crowded, more balanced, and I no longer worry about a big limb crashing onto the garage. The tree’s still full and leafy, but now it feels safer and more manageable in storms.
