Pruning
PRUNING
Keep your trees maintained and looking great with our quality tree pruning services.
Our Arborists are qualified and experienced to undertake all tree pruning jobs no matter the scale or difficulty.
Our tree pruning services include:
Crown Reduction
Crown reduction is the process in which the width or height of a tree is reduced, often used on trees that are near power lines, blocking views or sunlight.
Crown Clearing
If you have deadwood in the canopy of your tree or need to remove diseased or poorly attached branches, crown clearing is the way to go.
Cutting To Fenceline
If you have a tree on your fenceline that overhangs into your neighbour’s property, they can request it to be pruned back. Instead of removing the tree, we can effectively trim it back so it’s on your property while still looking great.
Thinning
Many times, trees will prevent sunlight from reaching plants beneath it. By carefully selecting particular branches to be pruned, we can open it up, allowing sunlight to shine through while maintaining the tree’s original shape. This is also the best practice for fruit trees.
There are many benefits of having your trees pruned by Andersen’s Tree Services, which include:
| It maintains the health of the tree | It controls the growth of the tree | It will prepare you for a fruit harvest |
|---|---|---|
| It reduces the risk of deadwood and falling branches | It improves the appearance of the tree | Gives plants underneath the sunlight they need |
And much more!
For quality tree pruning services that you can rely on, choose Andersen’s Tree Services every time.
Keep Your Hedges Healthy With Regular Hedge Trimming
If your hedges are starting to look out of shape and growing haphazardly or seem unhealthy, it’s time to get them pruned but, be careful of when you do so. Like all other shrubs, hedges are also sensitive to when their pruning takes place. Our well-experienced arborists can provide hedge trimming advice and services up to 200km around the Whakatane, Kawerau, and Opotiki District Councils.
Benefits of Hedge Trimming Services
Frequent trimming of hedges is vital to maintain their health as well as keeping their appearance neat. Trimming out and removing dead or diseased parts of the hedge allows for new growth and reduces the risk of insect infestations, it also encourages growth. Our highly qualified arborists can advise you of the best times of year to book our services for hedge trimming.
- Maintaining your border fence will keep its shape and ensure no parts of it encroach onto the road, your neighbour’s property, or onto power lines.
- Our pruning services include thinning out trees or hedges where individual branches are blocking the sunlight from reaching the plants beneath them.
- Pruning controls the growth of trees and hedges and improves their appearance and health.
Related Services We Provide to Hedgerow Maintenance
Hedgerow is a line of bushes, small trees, and plants growing along the edge of a field or road. Hedgerow requires maintenance to remain healthy and ensure continued growth as the shrubs provide food and shelter for livestock, small wild animals, insects, and birds, provide corridors for pheasants and partridges, and reduce wind speed which helps prevent soil erosion. Our team of qualified arborists can handle any tree-related project.
- Maintenance of hedgerow and hedge cutting services are part of the pruning services we offer. Cutting back a tree, hedge, or shrub that is hanging over into your neighbour’s property is a far more favourable option to removing the tree.
- We are equipped with the latest equipment to safely remove trees that pose a risk of causing property damage. Part of our tree removal services includes stump removal, which prevents the stump from rotting in your garden and becoming infested with pests.
- We remove overhanging trees or exposed root stumps on cliff edges along roadsides before they dislodge and land on the road which could result in an accident. We are experienced with safely removing trees that have collapsed after a storm or from other causes and are available 24/7 for removal at a residential property or council road.

For Professional Tree Pruning, Trust Andersen’s Tree Services
If it’s been a while since you had professional tree pruning, it may be time to schedule a visit from a local arborist. Regular pruning is essential because it can make the tree look better and perform better, as well as ensuring that the tree is safe for your property and the people on it. Andersen’s Tree Services provides professional tree trimming and removal, stump grinding and more in the Whakatane, Kawerau, and Opotiki areas.
Benefits of a Professional Tree Trimming Service
Professional arborists come with a variety of benefits for property owners. These benefits include:
- Saving time and money. One of the best things about professional tree trimming is that it can save you a considerable amount of time and money. Not only will you not have to attempt the job yourself, but you also won’t be liable for damage caused by a dead or overgrown tree, nor will you have to pay to rent the equipment needed to tackle the job.
- A safer yard. Trees can cause trouble for property owners in several ways. First, overgrown roots can weaken a building’s foundation or damage driveways. However, removing trees is risky business. You can have the best of both worlds: remove a problematic tree and still say safe by trusting the job to the pros.
- A more functional backyard. Would you like to give your backyard at home a new look and make it more accessible for fun activities, such as barbecues? Having trees trimmed or removed can create more space in your outdoor area and make it easier to entertain – or even just to relax after a long week.
Signs You Should Invest in Tree Trimming
How do you know if your trees require trimming? Here are a few tell-tale signs.
- You notice broken branches. Broken branches are often the first sign that a tree needs some attention. If you do see any broken, splintering, or even bowing branches, be sure to contact a trim tree service as soon as possible.
- You have branches hanging over power lines. If you see that you have branches over power lines, tree trimming is essential. This situation is potentially hazardous and should be handled by a professional. You should also consult an arborist for branches hanging over other structures, such as your roof.
- Your trees have grown too much. It’s usually a great thing to see the rewards of your hard work in the form of thick, lustrous plant growth. However, you can have too much of a good thing. Too much growth can cause problems such as branches that become too heavy and break off (potentially damaging your property or causing injury).
Related Services We Offer to Pruning
Tree pruning isn’t all we do at Andersen’s Tree Services. Here are some of the other services we offer.
- Tree removal. If you are concerned about a hazardous tree on your property, it may need more than pruning. We can handle tree removal from start to finish, even removing the stump. Your property will look like the tree was never there when we finish the job. We can also handle emergency tree removal for trees that have already become a problem.
- Stump grinding. Anytime we remove a tree, we’ll let you decide whether you want us to leave the stump or remove it for you. We take pride in our work and want every customer to be 100 percent satisfied. So, if you feel that your tree stump is an eyesore or takes up too much space on your property, we’ll happily remove it.
- Mulch. When we remove a tree or grind a stump, we always “upcycle” the wood chippings into mulch. We’ll let you keep the mulch if you want it for your garden, or we’ll take it with us and distribute it elsewhere if you don’t want it. If you don’t need any trees trimmed or removed but just need mulch, we have you covered there, too. Just let us know.
