Crown Reduction

Tree crown reduction is the process of removing branch tips and pruning back to a growth point further down the branches.

This may be carried out to remove dead, diseased and damaged branches, or simply to reduce the overall size of the tree to improve light and reduce shadowing.

Pollarding

Pollarding is a method of pruning that keeps trees and shrubs smaller than they would naturally grow. Regular pollarding can be used to control the size and height of greenery.

This method can be also used for ‘bolling’ – encouraging a young tree to branch stems from a prescribed height.

Crown Lifting

Crown lifting is the removal of the lowest branches to improve clearance for access and prevent damage to vehicles and the tree itself.

Crown Thinning

Crown thinning is the targeted removal of a smaller branches, often at the outer part of the tree’s crown. This creates an even canopy of well-spaced branches. this method is often used to improve light penetration without changing the tree’s height or shape.

Crown Cleaning and Deadwood Removal

This refers to the removal of dead, dying or diseased wood in the tree’s crown, and can also be used for unwanted climbing plants or debris. Usually undertaken for safety reasons, dead wooding a tree reduced risk of deceased branches. This prevents damage to cars and improves safety of the tree in high footfall areas.

Felling and Sectional Dismantle

Whilst we always try to maintain a healthy tree and environment, often a tree has been planted in the wrong location, is diseased or declining or is unsafe. Removal can be done by a qualified tree surgeon with felling on or sectional dismantle – the process or removing a tree piece by piece in crowded areas.
