Signs You Need Tree Trimming in Northern Virginia
In many cases, trimming down a tree is not an easy decision. Property owners often want their tree to flourish and be healthy. Is it wrong to trim a tree that is growing?
On the other hand, once you know your tree has gotten too large, should you just remove it entirely to avoid future complications? It is our job as your trusted tree trimming experts to help you reach the right decision, considering your property, your wishes, and your budget.
Key Reasons for Tree Trimming in Your Yard
- The overall health of the tree is jeopardized due to an excess of dead branches.
- A disease is growing in certain parts of the tree and needs to be removed.
- Trimming certain fruit-bearing trees can actually trigger fruit growth.
- The tree is growing too close to powerlines.
- Large branches have grown over a home, risking a disaster if they fall off.
- Branches are extending into a neighboring property.
- The surrounding area can’t be seen and enjoyed due to the tree blocking the view.
Understanding Tree Trimming vs. Tree Pruning
Tree trimming involves removing portions of the tree that are not necessary for growth such as dead, broken or diseased branches. Tree pruning is more focused on shaping the tree to enhance its structure and appearance by selectively removing some healthy parts of the tree.
Pruning also helps to promote better health and vigor by controlling the amount of foliage, stimulating the formation of buds and reducing the risk of certain diseases. Tree trimming is often done on younger trees to promote better structure while pruning is most often used on mature trees to maintain their shape and appearance.
Pruning is also more focused on promoting healthy growth and maximizing the life span of a tree, whereas trimming focuses more on aesthetics. Both tree trimming and pruning are important for the health of a tree, but the techniques used and goals achieved differ between the two.

We've used Big Steve's Tree Care now on several occasions and have always been impressed; prompt, professional and friendly service that can't be beat! Our most recent job was trimming a few trees encroaching from neighbors yard and clearing branches from power lines. Steve's crew responded promptly and took care of the job for a very reasonable price. Highly recommended!
Brooks Ferrett
I will use Big Steve again.
I've used Big Steve and his crew three times, once to trim a tree above my house and twice to remove branches that had fallen or were hanging from the tree. Steve is great, thorough and obviously loves trees, when I asked him about certain hanging branches, he told me what was healthy and could stay, so he didn't do more than he had to. He also came for my initial price quote very quickly and was able to do the job a few days later after i emailed the signed price quote back. The lady who answers the phones there is great too!
Terri Mock Hyman
Steve came and gave an honest appraisal. He could have charged us more to save an old damaged tree, but gave an honest appraisal of the outcome. New chose to have it cut down and the stump removed. Big Steve was the cheapest of all the INSURED services we had come out. They came and did the job right and fast. There is a reason everyone recommends them - they are professional and good.

Many thanks to Big Steve's crew for removing and cutting up multiple tree branches that had recently been damaged in a storm. The crew was great, very courteous, professional, and made fast work of their assignment! Big Steve's will be our `go-to' service for any future work. Thanks again for a great job! Sincerely, The Hills

Local Guide
We’ve used Big Steve’s twice since buying our dream property last year. We have many huge trees and initially needed one dead tree removed & cleaning up several more. The 4 man crew had a bucket truck but used climbing for most of the trees. The workers were very skilled, pleasant, and respectful of our property. They’re also amazing to watch - they’re at home up in the trees. The price was very fair & Steve is a pleasure to deal with. He is a local, hands on business owner & very knowledgeable. When another tree that posed a risk didn’t look good this spring, we knew who to call. As a tree lover, I appreciate that Steve puts tree health first and is truly interested in getting a good result. Very happy to have found Big Steve’s & highly recommend!

We had a 100' tall Chestnut Oak go down in our back yard during a recent storm. It was only due to a favorable wind that kept it from hitting our home. Steve's crew did an excellent job in removing the tree and grinding the stump. Quality work that we have come to expect from Steve and his crew!
