Scheduled maintenance work on your trees that are important for aesthetic appeal as well as natural beauty when they’re outgrow their space requirements without being cut down completely.
- For the best appearance, trees that have dead branches or wilted brown fronds can bring down the curbside appeal of your property. We can trim just about any tree you might have, and we can also take care of your palm trimming needs. A tree with a healthy canopy doesn’t just looks great, it enhances the rest of the beautiful landscaping you may have. A good looking tree can take a beautiful backyard view from nice to positively picturesque. The right tree trimming technique can enhance nature’s beauty, but it can also significantly increase the value of your property. Just imagine how much nicer your home or business would look if there were no more dead branches, brown palm fronds, or oddly shaped canopies hanging around.

- To keep trees looking lively, pruning a tree is an important part of its maintenance and helps keep the plant happy and healthy. Every tree deserves regular maintenance, and part of this care is regular trimming. Palms, are less likely to attract pests like Scorpions and Termites if the fronds and lace are trimmed or removed periodically. Carefully trimming certain parts of a tree’s canopy (or crown) increases light penetration to lower branches. This makes the tree healthier and less vulnerable to disease, pests, and even environmental stresses. Once a tree is diseased, we can also trim as part of a treatment plant. When pests or disease affect your tree, give us a call as soon as you notice the issue. If it seems like it’s too late, we can also remove the tree altogether as a last resort.
- Avoiding damage, sometimes a tree that has been planted near a building or utility lines can start to become a serious problem. Even trees that stand near pools, driveways, or fences can be an issue if they haven’t been properly cared for. Even palms can lose fronds during periods of high winds or become a fire hazard during dry seasons if they are not pruned routinely. Having Ivy Tree Service trim your trees reduces the risk of broken branches and fronds landing on a building, vehicle, or person. Trees can also be trimmed to meet your local home owners association standards or simply to avoid branches that reach across property lines (or power lines). We are also able to identify which trees to trim, and how much foliage to remove, which could help your trees fare better during droughts or other extreme weather events that we have in Arizona.
Tree Trimming Faqs
What is the purpose of trimming?
Pruning is an essential part of any landscape that will protect your property from damage, and promote healthy growth and shape for your trees. Dead or dying branches should be removed to allow new ones with sturdy stems- this also helps prevent pest infestation!
How important is tree trimming?
Pruning a tree is important for increasing its aesthetic appeal and promoting healthy growth. Prunings should be done at the right time to avoid killing it, but also in order not to have any limbs removed that could produce flowers or fruit!
When should I trim my trees?
Here are some signs that indicate that it may be time to trim your tree:
- Broken Branches
- Misshapen Trees
- Dead or Diseased Branches
- Branches Near Electrical Lines
- Storm Damaged Trees
- Over Growth
- Weak Branches
- Cracks in the Bark – could indicate
- underlying issues
- Crossing Branches
Is it bad to trim a tree in the summer?
The summer is a great time to prune your overgrown trees, both native and imports. This includes palo verde trees; sissoos (a type of drought-tolerant tree); mesquite willow acacia, and African Sumac! Monsoon season can start as early as June so be sure to take care when trimming these plants in order not to have any damage done by rainstorms or winds during this period.

I called early in the morning and Alexander and his team were able to make it out to handle it within an hour of my call. Entire process took MAYBE 15 minutes from start to finish once they arrived and I showed them what the extent of the damage was. I was also impressed with their commitment to making the yard around the tree look nice after they were done -- rocks that were dragged with the branches were blown back into my yard, and twigs that had scattered during the removal were raked up and carried out. 5 star experience, easily. I was very stressed about this, and the Ivy Tree Service team took all of that stress away. Thanks Alexander + Team!Services: Tree removal, Tree trimming & pruning read less

We had several that needed trimming and two large ones that needed to come out.They came when they said they would and I enjoyed talking to the "crew". Alexander said he would be there the whole time and he was not. I felt he was the expert and told me only 5% of the tree could be trimmed this time of year. He talked about not just letting anyone trim the trees. Well, he wasn't there when they were trimming and they didn't clean up well. As a matter of fact, they didn't trim the way he said either. I asked him to come back and they did and again, no cleanup. Before I paid him I said I would like to hold back $1,000 to get the pavers (that were damaged by their work) fixed and also have his guys clean up.He kept pushing out. Next week....next week....the end of the week. Well guess what? They never came so my husband ended up spending 4 hours in the yard doing cleanup after Ivy's guys. Secondly, the pavers are still not fixed. I should have trusted my gut and held some money back because once he had the money, he never even responded to my text messages again.I was disappointed. $8,000 is a lot of money for us and I don't think my trees look that great and now my pavers are busted up.Also, I am a real estate broker and have had several clients call me for referrals....he lost more than just my business.He did fertilize my trees so there is that. Also, he dumped the wood chips by my garden and I can use those. Over all it was okay except he just didn't keep his word at the end. That means the world to me when someone does what they say.Services: Tree removal, Tree trimming & pruning, Tree stump removal read less

These guys showed up on time and were all friendly and professional. The price was fair and they were even able to remove another tree I requested at the last minute.

Alexander was obviously very knowledgeable during the estimate process. His crew got started the next day. The two trees and three stumps are now gone from my yard, with no evidence they were ever there. The crew did a great job with the work and clean up. I plan to use Ivy Tree Service again for tree trimming and maintenance, and recommend that you do as well. Very good and professional work. read less

He was professional, suggested some different ideas, and was willing to work with my budget. There was a slight hiccup with arrival time on the scheduled day but Alex was easy to reach.

Alexander and Santi (spelling?) were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable; to say the least, We are very impressed. Alexander took his time to give us an estimate and explain exactly what they were going to do. We had an overgrown ficus in the front yard that our neighbors were complaining about... I’m sure they’re gonna wish they hadn’t, as our newly trimmed tree is now making theirs look bad, haha. After all the work was completed Santi took the time to make sure we were happy with the work performed and explained to me how the tree was trimmed, how it should be watered and what to do in the future to maintain the tree. Overall the experience was wonderful and we look forward to doing business with them in the future; job well done and worth the money. So happy we found our new tree trimming company, Highly recommend! Thanks Guys! read less
