Crown reduction is used to reduce the height and/or spread of the crown of a tree by the removal of the ends of branches whilst maintaining the tree's natural shape as far as possible.
Crown thinning is the removal of a small portion of secondary and small live branches to produce a uniform density of foliage around an evenly spaced branch structure. Crown thinning includes crown cleaning and should not alter the overall size or shape of the tree.
Crown lifting is the removal of the lowest branches, and pruning/reducing of lower branches for future removal, normally to a uniform height from ground level.
Common reasons for crown lifting are to bring more light and provide clearance for pedestrians, vehicles, buildings or lines of sight. Minimum heights are usually dictated by local laws.
Felling is the complete removal of a tree down to ground level. This work involves the careful lowering of branches and timber so as not to cause any damage or destruction to surrounding plants and structures.
The stump will be left as close to the ground as possible but will be above soil level. Stumps can be removed by means of a stump grinder. Contact us for more information, 07851 965163 or click below.
