Tree Trimming in Prattville

Montgomery Tree Trimming Pros provides tree trimming throughout Prattville and the greater Montgomery, AL area.

Prattville sits just northwest of Montgomery along Autauga Creek and has grown fast over the past 25 years as a bedroom community for state government and Maxwell AFB workers. Most of the housing was built between 1990 and 2015, meaning the trees planted at those subdivisions are now hitting the size where they start causing problems. The historic downtown around Daniel Pratt's original mill district has much older trees that need different handling than the newer subdivisions.

Overgrown trees in Montgomery drop limbs fast when summer storms roll through — and we get a lot of those between June and September. The pine trees and water oaks common in neighborhoods like Dalraida and Wynlakes grow quickly in the Alabama heat, and they need regular trimming to stay safe near rooflines and power lines. Skip it too long and you're not just looking at a mess — you're looking at a tree that's already leaning the wrong way.

We climb or use a bucket truck depending on the tree and what's around it, and we cut to the branch collar — that's the swollen ring where the branch meets the trunk — so the tree seals itself properly. Hacking branches flat or flush with the trunk leaves open wounds that rot inward, and we see that mistake on trees all over the older parts of Montgomery where someone did a quick job 10 years ago.
