Tree Pruning
Done right, tree pruning is one of the best things you can do for a tree. It extends life, improves structure, reduces risk, and makes your property look better. Done wrong, it could cause damage that can take years to undo, if it can be undone at all.
This is exactly where the pros separate from the imposters. There’s no shortage of guys with a truck and a chainsaw who call themselves arborists. What’s rare is someone who understands tree biology deeply enough to know where every cut should be, why it goes there, and what the tree will do next.
Tate Dunn is that person. As an ISA Certified Arborist, every pruning decision Tate makes is grounded in the highest industry standards and best management practices—the kind that protect your tree’s long-term health, not just its short-term appearance.
Trees Are Living Systems
Massive, dynamic, and worthy of our respect. A bad prune doesn’t just look ugly—it can open the door to disease, decay, and structural failure that turns a beautiful tree into a serious hazard. On the other hand, proper pruning can add decades to a tree’s life while making it safer, more beautiful, and better integrated into your landscape.
We bring that level of care to every job in Southern Oregon—whether it’s a single ornamental in an Ashland backyard or a row of oaks on a rural property outside Medford.

Our Approach
Proper pruning is skilled work from the ground up. In the canopy, every cut is made with an understanding of how the tree grows, where the weight lives, and what the branch structure will look like five years from now. On the ground, the cleanup is just as intentional. We take pride in leaving your property exactly as we found it. Look up and you’ll see the difference. Look down and you’ll never know we were there.
