Top 5 Reasons to Have Your Trees Trimmed

Here’s why regular tree trimming and pruning are essential:

Promote Tree Health

Regular tree trimming and pruning play a vital role in maintaining the overall health of your trees. Pruning allows for improved air circulation and sunlight penetration, reducing the risk of fungal infections and promoting healthy growth.

 

Improve Aesthetics

Trimming and pruning promote healthy growth and improve aesthetic appeal. Pruning shapes trees, giving them an attractive and well-maintained appearance and enables vibrant blooms, adding value to your property.

 

Prevent Disease and Pests

Regular pruning prevents diseases and pests. By removing diseased or infested branches promptly, we minimize the risk of infestations which can overtake not just one tree, but possibly your entire landscaping.

 

Clearance and Safety

Anyone in California knows that clearing trees around your property prevents fires from spreading. That’s true here in New Jersey, too. 

Overgrown branches can interfere with power lines, obstruct views, or cause damage to roofs, windows, other structures, or people.

Seasonal Tree Maintenance

Different seasons require specific tree care approaches. Read about our thoughts on when it’s best to bring in an arborist. Some trees and properties need at least quarterly trimming.

Spring: March 1 – May 31
Spring is an ideal time as trees enter their active growth phase. Pruning during this time helps remove winter damage and stimulates healthy development. 

Summer: June 1 – August 31
In Summer, Reliable recommends reducing canopy density, allowing better air circulation. 

Fall: September 1 – November 30
Fall pruning targets dead or damaged branches before winter, preventing them from becoming hazards during storms that we get in the Bergen County area. 

Winter: December 1 – February 28 (29th in a leap year)
Winter work, when trees are dormant, helps shape them and promotes spring growth.

Five-star Reviews

Fast and clean service

“Reliable is great. We just had a tree removed in our backyard. They were reliable, fast, and very clean.”

Pete

Hoboken, NJ

Superb tree service

“I can’t say enough about Ed and Reliable. I won’t call anybody else in the future. Reliable was responsive, the price was better than fair and the work was superb (and clean). We had a large half dead black cherry tree that was in need of major pruning, massive branch removals, two small tree removals (in between the two trees you see in the pics), and removal of a massive nest of vines that was essentially engulfing all 4 trees that had existed in that space (2 dead trees, 2 alive) and was choking out the two trees that were “alive.” Reliable removed the two dead trees, all the vines, substantially pruned both remaining trees and cut off 4 large hazardous (massive) branches on the large tree that were essentially growing horizontal. I haven’t taken the time to leave a lot of contractor reviews …. Don’t call anybody else.”

Repeat customers for removals and trimming

“This is the second service I’ve had Reliable Tree out to do on our property. Last year, they came out to remove 3 trees which were in the way of work that we were having done to our home. Prompt, professional, reasonable and left me completely satisfied with the end result. This week they came out to remove some trees that were dead/dying/leaning as well as to trim all of the trees on our property (and I can tell you that we have a LOT of trees!). The finished product is amazing. They showed up on time and spent the entire day. The trees were down and stumps ground lickety split and the rest of the day was spent on the trimming. They left the property looking amazing and clean. I will be using them for all of my tree needs from now on. No need to call anyone else!”

Reasonable tree removals

“We had this company take a tree out of our backyard and the men who came to do the job were very professional and very respectful I would recommended them to anyone who needs any work done and very reasonable.”

John

Hoboken, NJ

Large, complex job done well at a great price

“They provided an excellent level of service at a very good price. They were prompt and did the work carefully and quickly without damaging other plants and bushes on our property. When one scheduled date was rained out, they set another date within a week and paid the cost for the additional parking permits our city requires. We would definitely use them again. We needed four trees removed from our backyard and one from the front yard. One of the trees was a very large hardwood tree, which started to fall over during a recent storm and could not be saved. Our house is very close to other houses, with phone and electrical wires in the way of some tree branches. This was a very large, complex job.”

Kendall

NJ

Repeat business in Hoboken

“Professional, efficient, and amazing. I have had the pleasure of knowing and watching these guys work for many years while working for the City of Hoboken where I first meet them. Since then they have come to my house several times . Two removals, two stump grinding, and each time perfection! Several tree trimmings all done with ease because of their knowledge and professionalism . I recommend 6 ****** stars.”
