Tree Trimming & Pruning
Careful pruning for Alexandria's street trees, ornamentals, and residential canopy. We follow ANSI A300 standards and work within city tree regulations on every job.
Learn more →NoVA Tree Trimming has served Alexandria homeowners since 2012. From the historic streets of Old Town to the wooded lots of West Alexandria and Seminary Hill, our ISA-certified arborists care for the trees that define this city's character.
Alexandria is a city where trees are woven into the character of every neighborhood — from the historic American elms along Old Town's cobblestone streets to the mature oaks and maples that shade neighborhoods like Seminary Hill, Del Ray, and Rosemont. Caring for these trees requires an arborist who understands both the species and the setting.
Alexandria's urban density presents specific challenges: limited access, overhead utilities, tight lot lines, and the city's tree preservation rules that protect historically significant trees. Our crews work in Alexandria regularly and know how to navigate these constraints without compromising on quality or safety.
We don't subcontract. Every crew is directly employed, ISA-certified arborist supervised, and trained to ANSI A300 pruning standards. In a city where a bad cut on a street-facing elm can affect a historic streetscape, we take that responsibility seriously.
We carry $2 million in general liability insurance and full workers' compensation on every crew member. For work in a dense urban environment like Alexandria, thorough coverage protects you and your neighbors.
We serve all Alexandria neighborhoods including Old Town, Del Ray, Rosemont, Seminary Hill, Beverley Hills, Parkfairfax, Landmark, West Alexandria, Potomac Yard area, and North Ridge. If you're not sure whether we cover your address, call us — we almost certainly do.

"We have a large elm on our Del Ray property that was overhanging the neighbor's fence. NoVA's arborist came out, assessed it carefully, and did a beautiful crown reduction that solved the problem without harming the tree. Outstanding work."
"Removing a large tree from our tight Old Town backyard seemed impossible. Nova figured it out with a rigging system and removed the whole tree without a single scratch to our fence or the neighbor's property. Impressive."
"Nova trimmed three mature oaks on our Seminary Hill lot. On time, very professional, great cleanup. The arborist took time to walk me through what he was doing. Worth every penny and I'll use them again."
