Tree care is about more than just aesthetics—it’s about ensuring their health, safety, and longevity.

Our team of certified arborists is committed to providing the caliber of tree trimming in Sherman Oaks that can keep your landscape beautiful, functional, and hazard-free.

Why Tree Trimming Matters

Regular tree trimming is essential for both the well-being of your trees and the safety of your property. Tree trimming can make your trees look great, yes, but it can also do so much more than that. For example, tree trimming: 

• Promotes Healthy Growth – Removing dead or diseased branches allows trees to focus energy on new, healthy growth.
• Prevents Hazards – Overgrown limbs can fall at any time. This can cause severe, damage to people, roofing, and more. 
• Improves Sunlight & Airflow – Thinning dense canopies reduces fungal risks and encourages balanced growth.
• Enhances Curb Appeal – Well-maintained trees elevate your property’s appearance and value.

Ignoring tree trimming can lead to weakened structures, pest infestations, and costly property damage. It’s natural to want to take care of your trees on your own, but that’s not recommended. 

DIY tree care is less safe, less effective, and ultimately, more expensive. With help from the pros, you can have the peace of mind that comes from knowing your trees are healthier for longer. 

 

When Do My Trees Need Trimming? 

How do you know when it’s time to call an arborist? Watch for these red flags:

• Dead or broken branches – These can drop unexpectedly, creating safety risks.
• Branches touching structures – Limbs brushing against roofs, power lines, or fences need trimming.
• Too much leaf density – If sunlight can’t penetrate the canopy, thinning may be necessary.
• Signs of disease – Discolored leaves, bark damage, or fungal growth indicate health issues.
• Unusual growth patterns – Lopsided or overgrown trees may require corrective pruning.

If you notice any of these issues, it’s best to schedule a professional assessment before problems escalate.

When Tree Removal Is Necessary

While we always aim to preserve trees, sometimes removal is the safest option. Consider professional tree removal if:

• The tree is dead or dying – A decaying tree can collapse without warning.
• It’s diseased or infested – Some pests and infections can’t be treated, risking nearby trees.
• Storm damage has made it unstable – Split trunks or uprooted roots pose immediate dangers.
• Roots are damaging property – Invasive roots can crack foundations, sidewalks, and pipes.
• It’s overcrowded or poorly placed – Sometimes, removal improves the landscape’s health.

Those are just some of the reasons that you might need your trees to be removed. We’ll use whatever methods are necessary to remove your trees safely and efficiently. That could include crane assisted tree removal, or it could involve any number of other professional services. When we speak with you, we’ll assess your situation and determine how we can best help. 

Stump Grinding: Making Your Property Look How You Want

After tree removal, leftover stumps can be tripping hazards, attract pests, and hinder landscaping. Our stump grinding service eliminates these problems by:

• Grinding stumps inches below ground – Preventing regrowth.
• Turning wood into mulch – Which can be reused or removed.
• Preparing the area for replanting or construction – Leaving a clean, level surface.

When to Grind a Stump

   Schedule trimming if you notice dead/broken branches, limbs touching structures (roofs, power lines), excessive leaf density blocking sunlight, signs of disease (discolored leaves, fungi), or uneven growth. Early professional assessment prevents costly damage.
3. Is tree removal ever necessary?
   Yes, removal may be needed for dead/dying trees, severe disease/pest infestations, storm-damaged trees, invasive roots damaging property, or overcrowding. Your Way Tree Service Inc. uses safe methods (like crane-assisted removal) and offers stump grinding to prepare the area for reuse.
