Tree pruning and trimming keep your trees healthy, safe, and looking sharp. In Aloha, where rainy winters and fast spring growth are common, Duran Tree Service removes dead, damaged, or overgrown limbs—including large and broken branches—to improve structure, open sightlines, and support strong, healthy growth around homes, sidewalks, and driveways.
Proper pruning answers common tree care questions and ensures reliable maintenance for Aloha properties. Our work covers street trees, shade trees, fruit trees, and more, helping solve:
Tree trimming and pruning are essential for tree health, structure, and safety. At Duran Tree Service, we make clean, correct cuts and use proven techniques for young and mature trees.

Our trimming and pruning service includes a careful assessment and a plan tailored to each tree’s species, structure, and condition. What sets Duran Tree Service apart is our precision, safety-first methods, and commitment to long-term tree health for Aloha homeowners and businesses.
We use best-practice methods such as crown reduction, crown thinning for airflow, crown raising for clearance, and proper step-cuts to build strong, resilient trees. Removing dead or diseased wood with correct first and second cuts lowers risk and improves performance.
We also keep safe spacing from buildings, landscape features, sidewalks, and overhead lines—important across Aloha neighborhoods. For seasonal care or corrective trimming, our certified arborists deliver expert results. Live branches are maintained with care, and we can shape shrubs and hedges to support a healthy, balanced property.
We proudly serve Aloha, Beaverton, Bethany, Forest Grove, Hillsboro, Portland, and Tigard.
