Pruning Services
-
Crown Reduction
Crown reduction is used to reduce the height and/or spread of the crown of a tree by cutting branches back to a suitable growth point, whilst maintaining the tree’s natural shape as much as possible.
-
Formative Pruning
The aim of Formative Pruning is to encourage a young tree's structure to form into an appearance typical to that specific species of tree.
This would also include reducing any potential hazards within a tree which may form as a tree grows. -
Thinning
Crown thinning is a method of pruning a tree while maintaining it’s overall size and natural structure. Thinning secondary branches reduces the density of the tree, which in effect allows more light into the garden, reduces wind resistance, improves form and reduces growth rate
-
Pollarding
Pollarding involves the removal of all the trees growth, back to the main stem. This technique is normally used on species such as Lime, Poplar, Willow or a Plane.
Pollarding is normally started once a tree reaches a certain height, and annual pollarding will restrict the tree to that height.
-
Dead-Wooding
Dead wooding is the removal of dead limbs and branches of a tree. This service is essential as these limbs and branches can become hazardous over time by falling or forced down by high winds.

Ivy Severance/Removal
The goal when severing Ivy on a tree trunk is to separate the Ivy vines from their source of nutrients within the soil, so they will die.
Ivy can potentially cause serious harm to a tree, either through strangulation, encouragement of rot and causing additional issues.
As a responsible and environmentally aware company, we recycle 100% of the waste created on site for Biomass.
