Tree Trimming in Burbank, CA

Crown thinning, deadwood out, and weight taken off the limbs that need it — Burbank, Los Angeles County.

Two things drive trimming in Burbank. One is size: a parkway ficus or a back-yard carob has usually outgrown the space it was given, and reaching over the roof is where it went. The other is heat — long dry summers leave dead wood in the middle of a crown that looks full from the street.

Thinning handles both. Weight comes off the ends, the dead material comes out of the centre, and what is left is a tree that moves in wind instead of resisting it.

Tree Trimming & Thinning in Burbank

A Burbank crown that looks full from the street is often hollow with dead wood in the middle, and that is the material that ends up on the roof.

Questions about tree trimming & thinning in Burbank

Can you trim a parkway tree in front of my house?

Parkway and street trees are usually the city's rather than yours, even though they are in front of your house. Tell us which tree and we will say honestly whether it is yours to have trimmed.

The middle of my tree is full of dead sticks.

Common here after a hot summer. Cleaning that dead wood out is a short job and it is what usually stops branches landing on the roof.
