Alpharetta, GA – After a storm, disease, or improper trimming in the past, homeowners are often left with a damaged, misshapen tree and assume its only future is removal. However, a valuable tree can often be saved and guided back to health with expert care.
The certified arborists at Trees Plus LTD are helping Alpharetta residents understand that removal is not always the only option, offering a specialized tree cutting technique known as restorative pruning to give damaged trees a second chance.
"A damaged tree doesn't always need to be a removed tree," says Nick Sanchez, Owner of Trees Plus LTD. "Many homeowners are surprised to learn that with the right approach, a tree can recover from significant damage and regain its health and beauty. It's about giving the tree a path to recovery."
What is Restorative Pruning?
Restorative pruning is a highly skilled process that goes far beyond simple trimming. It's a careful, multi-step procedure that only a trained arborist should perform.
The process begins with the meticulous removal of all dead, broken, and diseased wood to make the tree safe and clean. Then, the arborist at Trees Plus LTD makes precise cuts to correct structural flaws and encourage healthy new growth in a balanced, desirable direction, effectively rebuilding the tree's form over time.
"Think of it as giving the tree a roadmap for recovery," explains Sanchez, Owner of Trees Plus LTD. "Each cut is a decision that helps it grow back stronger and more balanced than before."
Correcting Damage and Rebuilding Structure
The primary goal of restorative pruning is to re-establish a safe and stable structure for the tree's future. After removing the immediate hazards, an arborist from Trees Plus LTD will assess the remaining limbs to select a new central "leader" or thin the canopy to reduce weight on weakened areas.
"Restorative pruning is a long-term strategy," Sanchez explains. "The first session is about cleaning up the damage and ensuring safety. Subsequent light prunings over the next few years help guide the new growth, gradually rebuilding a strong and stable tree. It requires patience and a deep understanding of how the tree will respond to each cut."
An Investment in Property's Living Assets
Choosing to restore a mature tree is an investment in a property's most valuable living assets. Instead of paying for removal and losing years of growth, a homeowner can choose to invest in recovery, preserving the significant property value and sentimental worth that a mature tree provides.
"Saving a mature tree is one of the most rewarding things we do," notes Sanchez. "You're preserving years of growth, shade, and character for the property. It's an investment that pays back in beauty and value for many years to come."
