Tree Pruning & Trimming in Bellingham and Beyond

Tree pruning and trimming are essential to maintaining your trees' health and making sure they’re always looking their best. But tree trimming can also be a time-consuming and labor-intensive process.

We offer shrub and brush trimming as well as tree pruning in Bellingham and the rest of Whatcom County to help save you time and keep your property looking great.

Our Tree Pruning Services

NCLC offers a variety of tree pruning services across Whatcom County and the surrounding regions.


Tree trimming is important to keeping your property looking beautiful by cutting away overgrowth that can make your landscaping appear messy. The best time to prune your trees is in the winter as it helps encourage new growth as the season changes to spring.


While tree trimming is done with mostly aesthetic goals in mind, tree pruning involves a heavier focus on the health of your plants. Tree pruning is important to help protect against pests and diseases on your trees and encourage them to grow strong and healthy.

Crown Cleaning

Crown cleaning is a basic form of tree pruning where our professional landscapers remove dead, dying, or broken branches from your property. We safely remove dying or damaged branches around the crown of the tree based on branch length or diameter.

Crown Thinning

Another part of our tree pruning services is crown thinning, which removes branches from the upper portion of the tree to create a thinned-out appearance. Crown thinning allows light to travel through the tree without compromising its overall form.

Crown Raising

Crown raising is another tree pruning technique that removes low branches from the tree’s base to lift the height. There are several reasons we may recommend crown raising, including safety, tree health, or to improve the aesthetics of your landscaping.
