As part of the great trash cleanup, we had Tree Techs By the Bay prune three trees near the house. Here are the before and after pics. First, the giant gum tree as it was, then a shot of it getting tidied up. As you can see it’s a very large tree.
Lastly, the finished result. While it looks extreme, the guy doing the work really knows his stuff. Just about all the large pieces he cut down would have fallen down on their own soon; that would have made quite a mess and scared the crap out of everyone.
They also worked on the large fig tree. It had a lot of dead bits on it, so this rather extreme haircut should help out a lot.
Lastly, the large walnut tree outside my office needed a lot of love. This one was complicated as the phone and power lines actually touch the tree.
While all the trimming looks rather extreme, this should help each tree out quite a bit come springtime.
We’re pleased with the work the guys did, not just on the trees but cleaning out the giant trash heap. If we have more things to trim next spring and summer, we’ll give them a call.
