About the service
Why Choose Our Tree Pruning?
The Tree Comes First
Every cut is made with the tree's long-term structure and health in mind, not just how it looks the day we leave.
Reduced Risk
Thinning, reduction and deadwood removal cut down the risk to gardens, driveways, buildings and passers-by from a heavy or unstable crown.
Proper Equipment, Proper Standards
Climbing, rigging and cutting are carried out to British Standards, on domestic gardens and larger commercial grounds alike.
Process
How It Works
1
01. Look at the tree.
We check species, condition, access and what's around it before deciding on an approach.
2
02. Prune to a plan.
Cuts are made using the right climbing and rigging method for the tree and the site.
3
03. Clear up after.
Branches and brash can be chipped, removed or left on site, whatever suits you.
FAQ
Tree Pruning & Crown Reduction FAQs
It varies by species — some trees are best left outside nesting season, others have more specific timing. We'll advise once we've seen the tree.
Reduction brings down the overall height and spread of the tree; thinning removes selected branches to let more light and air through without changing the tree's overall size.
Not if it's done properly. We cut only what's needed to meet the goal, rather than taking a heavy-handed approach that stresses the tree.
