Detailed Tree Pruning by Licensed Arborists


It’s very important to have confidence in your arborists and their ability to tend to your trees. The indiscriminate removal of branches can lead to permanent damage to the tree itself as well as to its surrounding ecosystem. In addition, the reckless lopping of limbs can cause unsightly stumps, reactive growth and the breeding of disease vectors.


Total Tree Care takes pride in Melbourne’s celebrated wealth of trees. We never advise the random amputation of branches from healthy trees and we only resort to complete tree removal when there is no better alternative.

Weight Reduction


Supporting a natural crown shape helps trees absorb vital sunlight. By carefully removing branches within a tree's crown, we can decrease the overall density of each tree, reduce strain on the trunks, and improve overall stability.


Additionally, our targeted growth techniques can shape the coverage of each branch to ensure the right amount of light enters your garden

Formative Tree Pruning


Pruning young trees facilitates the correction of structural issues that impact the health of the trees and their environment. Omitting this practice may result in significant challenges for gardeners.


Total Tree Care's pruning services are capable of identifying potential problems at an early stage and preventing them from inflicting long-term damage

Hazard Reduction


Dead branches within a tree canopy can dry out and detach, presenting potential safety hazards.


Regular inspection and prompt removal of dead limbs are crucial to maintaining tree health and ensuring safety. Implementing these proactive measures significantly reduces the risk of personal injury and property damage

Mrs. Solberg

Frequently Asked Questions About Tree Pruning

  • How long does tree pruning take?

    Tree Pruning depends on the size of the tree and the extent of limbs that need to be removed. A small project may only take an hour or two. Large projects can take all day or several days if there are many trees.

  • How do I know if my tree should be pruned?

    If you see dead wood or your tree has been damaged, if the growth infringes on other aspects of the property, or if you feel the tree’s growth or fruiting regularity has changed, you should contact us.

  • Is removing a tree a better option?

    Removing a tree is a drastic and significant change which may result in permanent death to the tree. Only a professional arborist can make this determination after an assessment.

  • Who can prune my trees?

    Anyone can prune a tree, with the proper training and safety equipment. A professional arborist can also determine if the tree is healthy and how to keep it that way.
