TREE PRUNING

Tree pruning is the most common tree service we perform in Lubbock and it's a service where the ability of our professional arborists really shows. Proper tree pruning is both an art and a science. It takes a skillful eye to envision how a properly pruned tree should look and it takes a high level of arboricultural knowledge to know how to achieve this with proper tree pruning techniques. The science of tree pruning is in knowing how to make proper tree pruning cuts and to not remove too much foliage during any single pruning so as to not overly stress your tree.

How a tree should be pruned depends on several factors including the tree species, the age of the tree and the location of the tree in your landscape. The Tree Care Industry Association recognizes several different types of tree pruning techniques, which our arborists strictly adhere to. These tree pruning techniques include:

• Crown cleaning
• Crown thinning
• Crown reduction
• Crown raising

TREE REMOVAL

Although we prefer to save trees, there are situations where tree removal is necessary. Tree removal can be the most dangerous job an arborist performs, which why it's important to hire an experienced, professional arborist. If trees are easily accessible we will remove them using our bucket truck. For backyard trees, or trees in tight areas, we have tree climbing arborists that can remove trees. When necessary, we use lowering ropes to gently bring tree branches to the ground. Using lowering ropes prevents damage to houses, garages, or other plants in your landscape. For most tree removals our clients ask us to haul away the brush and wood, but we can price tree removals to leave the wood if that is your preference.

Our tree removal service is available for:

• Residential properties
• Commercial or business properties
• Farms
• Ranches

EMERGENCY TREE REMOVAL

Mother Nature can wreak havoc on our precious trees anytime of the year, which is why Thompson's Tree Experts are always available when you need us. Trees in Lubbock are frequently damaged by high winds, lightning and even an occasional tornado. Storm damage might result in fallen trees, broken tree limbs, or a yard littered with tree branches. We can help with storm damaged trees by removing fallen trees, cleaning up tree branches in your yard, or chipping brush piles. We are here to help any time you need emergency tree work.

TREE SPRAYING

Landscape trees in Lubbock are susceptible to a number of insect and disease pests. Left unchecked, these tree diseases or insect pests will disfigure or even kill trees in your landscape. The most proven method to control tree pests is with periodic tree spraying. The timing of tree spraying treatments depends on the disease or insect pest we are controlling. Call us for a landscape inspection and our arborist will tailor a tree spraying program specific to the trees and shrubs in your landscape.
