Often used interchangeably, these two tree service are actually quite different. Each is important in its own way.
Tree trimming focuses on maintaining the desired shape and size of a tree. This service is more about aesthetics and safety, by ensuring that trees do not interfere with structures, power lines, or pathways. Trimming involves cutting back overgrown branches to improve the tree's appearance and allow for better sunlight and air circulation.
While tree pruning does improve a tree’s appearance, it is more concentrated on the tree’s structure and health. This service involves cutting away dead, diseased, or overgrown branches to promote healthy growth and prevent potential hazards. Pruning also helps to shape the tree and support fruit or flower production.
The frequency of tree trimming and pruning can vary depending on the type of tree, its growth rate, and its health. If you hire a specialist from a reputable tree company like Arbor & Acre, you’ll learn more precisely how often each of your tree types should be trimmed and/or pruned. Still, we’d like to share some rules of thumb.
Late winter to early spring is generally the best time for most trees. This minimizes sap loss and stress, and the wounds have time to heal before new growth starts. For flowering trees and shrubs, it's best to prune right after blooming to avoid cutting off next year's flower buds.
More generally, pruning is recommended every 2-3 years to help shape and establish strong structure in young trees. For mature trees, pruning every 3-5 years helps to maintain health and safety. As for trimming, it is typically performed once a year or every 6-10 months for fast-growing trees – especially ones near power lines or other structures.
We hate to say good-bye, but sometimes a tree removal is not only recommended but required. Dead, diseased, and leaning trees can pose a risk to people, property, or surrounding vegetation. Our team assesses each situation to determine the best approach, whether it's complete removal or partial dismantling.

Wow! Arbor & Acre really shined today. The guys came and removed 2 large pine trees that were leaning towards my daughters upstairs bedroom making me nervous. They were very confident and provided the service they said they would. I will use Arbor & Acre again and recommend these guys. Price was not the lowest but I felt very secure having Austin’s team do my tree work. Thanks again for all of your hard work.
Arbor & Acre did an excellent job for us! Of the three companies that gave us estimates, theirs was the best price. Mark was always quick to respond and flawless in careful coordination of times. The entire crew was polite, fast working, and respectful of surrounding plants and buildings. The team cleared and cleaned the area beautifully when done and even shut the gate behind themselves. From here on out Arbor & Acre is our go-to tree service.
We had Arbor & Acre take down and remove five Sweet Gum trees in our back yard. Mark and his team were great and an absolute pleasure to work with! He walked us through the entire process before presenting us with a quote and explained every aspect of the job. For a detailed person like me, this was great! He took time to answer all of our questions and made sure we were comfortable with everything before the work started. The team showed up on time and finished the job promptly. We are happy to recommend Arbor & Acre to our friends and neighbors!
Estimate provided Monday, 1 large tree removed, 6 trees trimmed, and small vegetation cleaned up and chipped on the following Wednesday. Logs removed before noon on Thursday. Quality service at a very competitive price. Very little damage done to yard. Highly recommend Chris and his crew. Great Job

They worked with us to keep the cost down and get the job done safely without any damage to our property! Very pleased with their work and ability to do such a hazardous job. Definitely recommend this company to everyone!!
