Pruning that leaves your trees stronger for the next storm.

We take out dead wood, lighten heavy limbs and lift branches off your roof, following ISA practices.

“We have huge live oaks on our property and we needed the dead limbs and branches removed. The team from APEX that worked on our trees was very professional.”

Kurt Schmersahl, Google review

Five kinds of cut. Each one has a job.

Selected branches come out of the canopy. Less weight on big limbs, more light and air, less breakage in storms.

The best time is late winter to early spring.

Early spring, or while the tree is dormant, is usually right. Timing still depends on the species and its condition, so we will recommend a schedule.
