Looking After Norwood Shade Trees
Large deciduous shade trees are common in Norwood yards. They give welcome summer shade, but autumn leaf drop fills gutters and heavy limbs can extend over roofs.
We usually recommend clearance pruning and deadwood removal before considering anything bigger, and we time work on deciduous trees for the dormant season where the job allows.

Shade questions
Norwood Arborist Answers
When should I prune my deciduous shade tree?
Late autumn and winter, when the tree is dormant, is often best because the structure is visible and the tree is under less stress. Deadwood and urgent clearance can be done any time.
Will pruning stop leaves filling my gutters?
Clearance pruning reduces the amount falling directly into gutters, but a deciduous tree will still drop leaves. Many owners combine pruning with gutter guards.
Can a heavy limb be saved instead of cut off?
Sometimes. Reducing the limb's end weight and, where suitable, installing a cable can let it stay. We assess the union before recommending support.
Do you bring your own chipper?
Yes. Branches are chipped on site where access allows, and the mulch can stay with you or be taken away.
Can you prune in summer when we need the shade?
We can, but in Norwood we usually suggest late winter for deciduous trees so the shade returns by summer.
