Are overgrown branches scraping your roof or blocking the sunlight your lawn needs? Don’t wait for a storm to turn those limbs into liabilities. JD Tree, LLC offers safe, insured trimming services that protect your home and boost your curb appeal, all at a price that makes sense.
Trees add value and shade to your home, but without regular care, they can turn into a liability. Overgrown branches can scrape against your roof, block the sunlight your lawn desperately needs, or become dangerous projectiles during an NC storm.
At JD Tree, LLC, we don’t just hack away at branches. We use the art and science of proper pruning to help your trees thrive. Whether you need to clear deadwood from an old Oak or shape up a decorative Maple for better curb appeal, we are the local experts Greensboro trusts to do the job right, and clean up the mess when we’re done.
Many homeowners think trees take care of themselves. But in a residential setting, trees need a little help to stay safe and strong. We recommend regular trimming for three main reasons:
Dead or hanging branches (often called “widowmakers“) are a hazard to your family and your roof. If a branch is rubbing against your shingles or hanging over your driveway, it’s only a matter of time before wind or ice brings it down. We remove these hazards before they cause damage.
Think of pruning like a haircut and a checkup rolled into one. By removing crowded or rubbing limbs, we improve airflow and sunlight penetration. This reduces the risk of disease and helps the tree focus its energy on strong, healthy growth.
A well-maintained tree looks beautiful. Overgrowth can make a property look neglected. We provide aesthetic shaping and crown raising (clearing the lower branches) to open up your view and give your yard a clean, manicured look.
We offer a variety of trimming techniques depending on what your tree needs. When we come out for your free estimate, we will assess the tree and recommend the best approach. After health assessment if trimming is not the soultion, we offer complete tree removal.
You have plenty of choices for tree trimming in Greensboro, but not everyone follows industry standards. Here is why neighbors choose us:
For most trees in North Carolina, late fall or winter (dormant season) is the best time for heavy pruning. However, dead or hazardous branches should be removed immediately, regardless of the season. We can advise you on the best timing for your specific tree species.
Absolutely not. Topping (cutting the top off a tree) is bad for the tree’s health and makes it unsafe in the long run. We practice proper reduction cuts that reduce height without destroying the tree’s structure.
If you can reach it from the ground with hand shears, go for it! But if it requires a ladder or a chainsaw near your head, please call a professional. Falls are the number one cause of injury in DIY tree work. Let us handle the height and the heavy lifting.
Yes. Greensboro ice storms and hurricane winds are tough on trees. We perform “crown thinning” to reduce the weight of the branches and let wind pass through the canopy, stopping limbs from snapping under stress.
In North Carolina, you can usually trim branches that cross your property line. We recommend talking to your neighbor first, but we can handle a “property line trim” to clear your space safely without harming the tree.
