Expert Tree Trimming in Bensalem and Beyond

Tree trimming is one of the most important services for maintaining both the safety and appearance of your property. At The Yard Keeper, we specialize in professional tree trimming in Bensalem, helping homeowners improve curb appeal, protect their property, and keep trees healthy year after year.

When is it time to call for trimming?

You’ll want to call us if you notice low-hanging branches near your roof, cracked limbs, or rapid overgrowth. Trees that touch power lines or lean heavily should be assessed quickly. We recommend preventative trimming before problems arise—especially before the windy fall season or heavy snow.

What types of trees do you trim?

We trim a wide variety of trees including maples, oaks, pines, cherries, birches, and more. If it grows in Bucks County, we’ve probably trimmed it. We handle both residential and small commercial jobs and offer regular maintenance or one-time shaping.

Will trimming hurt my tree?

Not when it’s done right. In fact, professional pruning improves health by removing deadwood, reducing stress, and allowing better airflow. We follow proper arborist guidelines and never overcut or strip away too much at once.

The Benefits of Professional Tree Trimming

Tree trimming isn’t just about appearance—it’s a key part of responsible property care. Untrimmed trees can become hazardous during storms, block sunlight from lawns and gardens, or crowd your home’s exterior. Our expert trimming service ensures your trees are balanced, healthy, and contributing to your home’s overall beauty and safety.

Here in Bensalem and surrounding areas like Bristol Township, Chalfont, and Morrisville, we’re known for quality, care, and precision.

Frequently Asked Questions

Tree trimming can feel intimidating—so here are some of the most common questions we hear from Bensalem homeowners:

How do I know if a tree needs trimming?

Look for signs like overgrowth near your home, dead or cracked limbs, branches blocking sidewalks or driveways, or trees that haven’t been trimmed in several years. We offer free assessments to let you know what needs attention and what can wait.

What’s the best time of year to trim trees in Bensalem?

Late winter through early spring is ideal for most trees, as this is when they’re dormant. However, we trim year-round depending on species and safety needs. Summer is fine for light shaping, and emergency trimming can be done anytime.

Is trimming different from pruning or removal?

Yes. Trimming usually refers to shaping and clearing away excess growth, while pruning focuses on tree health by removing dead, diseased, or weak limbs. Tree removal is complete extraction, which we also offer when necessary.

Do I need a permit to trim trees on my property?

In most cases, no—trimming trees on private residential property in Bucks County doesn’t require a permit. If you live in an HOA or historic zone, we recommend checking your local guidelines. We’re familiar with area regulations and can help advise.
