WARNING SIGNS

WHY PEOPLE ASK FOR TREE TOPPING, AND WHAT TO DO INSTEAD

Tree topping is cutting the main branches of a tree back to stubs to make it shorter. It is usually not recommended, because it can weaken the tree and make it less safe. Diligent Tree Service provides tree topping in Lake Havasu City, AZ along with honest advice and safer options such as crown reduction. Call (928) 208-7905 to schedule a visit.

01

THE TREE HAS GROWN TOO TALL

An overgrown tree topping request is common. Crown reduction usually brings the height down more safely.

02

BRANCHES OVER THE ROOF OR POWER LINES

Trimming back the branches that cause the problem is often enough.

03

THE TREE BLOCKS A VIEW OR SUNLIGHT

Thinning or selective trimming can open views and light without topping.

04

WORRY ABOUT STORM DAMAGE

Thinning can reduce wind stress. A weak or damaged tree may need removal instead.

05

THE TREE IS TOO BIG FOR THE SPACE

​Sometimes removal and replacing it with a smaller tree is the best long-term fix.

Our tree topping services start with honest advice. We look at your tree and recommend the safest way to bring it down to size.

TREE HEIGHT REDUCTION

Tree height reduction lowers a tree's height while protecting its health. The right method depends on the species, the tree's condition and why the height is a problem.
