Talk with Leo’s(505) 930-3158
01What should I point out when requesting trimming?

Describe the branches that concern you, what they are close to and the clearance you want. Mention changes in the canopy and the shade or shape you want to preserve.

02Can I discuss trimming while keeping shade?

Yes. Explain which canopy and shade matter to you. Discuss those goals with the branches that need attention so the proposed scope is clear before work begins.

04How are cut branches handled?

Confirm handling of cut material as part of the proposed work. Discuss access routes, outdoor areas and the finish you expect instead of assuming a particular arrangement is included.
