I trimmed these arborvitae trees and I’m not sure if I did them too much. I cut mostly dead trees out and the limps hanging over the fence but am worried that I did too much and they’re going to die. Am I fucked?
Nope, they will be fine. I see that something needed to be done. Next time, if you can wait till the tree is mostly dormant (late winter), it will stress the trees less.

They will be fine. Will they grow back in? Likely not, so that area is going to be a weed and trash trap. I would recommend mulching and installing ground cover to suppress the incoming weedageddon.

Not nearly as fucked as that fence is. This might be a good time to pull that baby out of there.

Good thing I read the description. Brush looks great. That fence is fucked. You made it easier to fix.
