Local tree care professionals explain why cold-season pruning supports stronger trees and safer properties.
ANN ARBOR, MI, UNITED STATES, January 19, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — As winter weather settles across Southeast Michigan, Ann Arbor Tree Trimming & Removal Service is encouraging homeowners and property managers to consider winter tree pruning as a proactive step for safety and long-term tree health. With many trees entering dormancy and winter storms placing additional stress on limbs and branches, cold-season pruning offers structural and preventative benefits that are difficult to achieve during other times of the year.
Founded in 2012, Ann Arbor Tree Trimming & Removal Service provides professional tree care throughout Ann Arbor, Ypsilanti, Saline, Whitmore Lake, Canton, and Westland. The company’s winter pruning approach is tailored to local tree species and seasonal conditions, with a focus on hazard reduction, structural improvement, and maintaining healthy urban canopies.
Winter is widely considered an ideal time to prune most deciduous trees. During dormancy, trees are not actively growing, which reduces stress from pruning and allows cuts to heal more efficiently once spring growth begins. With leaves absent, arborists can clearly evaluate branch structure and identify dead, damaged, or weakened limbs that may fail under the weight of snow or ice.
Cold-season pruning also reduces the risk of spreading disease or attracting pests, as many insects and pathogens are inactive during winter months. Removing compromised branches before severe weather can help prevent property damage, blocked access points, and emergency tree removals following storms.
In addition to pruning, Ann Arbor Tree Trimming & Removal Service offers a full range of residential and commercial tree care services, including tree removal, limb and root removal, stump grinding, shrub removal, and emergency storm response. Each project begins with a professional assessment to determine the safest and most effective approach based on tree condition, location, and seasonal factors.
Since its founding, Ann Arbor Tree Trimming & Removal Service has built a reputation for safety-focused practices, reliable service, and knowledgeable care delivered by trained professionals. The company remains committed to preserving the health of Southeast Michigan’s urban canopy while helping property owners manage winter-related risks.
Ann Arbor Tree Trimming & Removal Service is located at 2019 Medford Rd #170, Ann Arbor, MI 48104, and serves communities throughout Southeast Michigan.
