Tree & Shrub Care

Protect Your Landscape Investment

Trees and shrubs are major investments in your property. They provide shade, privacy, beauty, and can significantly increase your home's value. But like any investment, they need proper care to reach their full potential and stay healthy for decades.

Many homeowners don't realize their trees and shrubs need professional attention until problems become obvious. By then, disease has spread, pests have taken hold, or poor pruning has damaged the plant's structure. Regular professional care prevents these issues and keeps your plants looking their best.

At PineClean Inglewood Landscapes, we provide complete tree and shrub care services that protect your plants and enhance your landscape's appearance. Our trained team knows which plants thrive in Southern California and how to care for them properly.

The Right Way to Prune

Pruning is more than just trimming branches. Done correctly, it improves plant health, encourages better flowering, maintains shape, and removes safety hazards. Done incorrectly, it stresses plants, creates entry points for disease, and can ruin a plant's natural form.

We prune at the right time of year for each plant species. Some shrubs should be pruned right after flowering to preserve next year's blooms. Others do best with late winter pruning. Trees need careful attention to branch structure and weight distribution to prevent storm damage.

In Inglewood's climate, proper pruning also improves air circulation, which reduces disease problems common in humid conditions. We never top trees or use harmful techniques that damage plant health. Our pruning follows industry standards that promote long-term plant vitality, similar to how we approach comprehensive lawn care.

Preventing Problems Before They Start

Most tree and shrub problems are easier and cheaper to prevent than to cure. Regular fertilization keeps plants vigorous enough to resist pests and diseases naturally. Proper watering prevents stress that makes plants vulnerable. Mulching protects roots from temperature extremes and competition from weeds.

We watch for early warning signs during our visits. Discolored leaves, unusual growth patterns, or bark damage can indicate problems that need attention. Catching these issues early often means simple treatments instead of expensive interventions or plant replacement.

Southern California has specific pests and diseases that affect common landscape plants. We know what to look for and how to treat problems using the least toxic methods that are effective. Many issues can be managed with cultural practices and targeted treatments rather than broad-spectrum chemicals. We also coordinate with mulching services to maintain overall plant bed health.
