Tree Topping Explained: Risks, Myths, and Better Options
Thinking about tree topping? Learn why it damages trees, increases risk, and what safer options like crown reduction can do.
Tree pruning and trimming keep your trees healthy, safe, and looking great. In Bethany, Duran Tree Service removes dead, damaged, or overgrown limbs, improves structure and visibility, and guides strong new growth—perfect for our tree-lined neighborhoods near Bethany Village, Bethany Lake Park, and along busy residential streets.
We handle street trees, shade trees, fruit trees, and ornamentals throughout Bethany. Common issues we solve include:
Overgrown limbs
Dead branches
Diseased branches
Tree crowding
Walkway blockage
Uneven growth
Tree imbalance
Visibility issues
Poor circulation
Declining health
Our certified team uses precise cuts and proven techniques—dormant pruning, crown reduction, crown thinning for airflow, and crown raising for clearance—to care for young deciduous trees and mature specimens. We remove hazardous limbs and shape canopies so your trees stay strong and balanced through Bethany’s windy, wet seasons.
Benefits you can expect:
Better overall tree health and disease prevention
Fewer weak or broken limbs for a safer yard
Protection for roofs, siding, fences, and the trunk
Clean, attractive, and well-shaped trees that fit your landscape

Every trim starts with a detailed assessment tailored to the tree’s species, structure, and condition. We plan spacing around homes, HOA areas, sidewalks, landscape features, and local utilities common in Bethany’s residential blocks. Live branches are preserved carefully, and we can include shrubs and hedges to keep the whole property balanced.
