Crown Reduction in Caterham
If a tree in your garden is blocking all the light, but you don't want to dismantle the tree altogether, you may want to consider crown reduction or crown thinning.
Crown thinning needs to be done by a fully trained tree surgeon, who will select branches to be removed from the tree so that the overall size and outline of the tree's crown is unchanged, but the branches and therefore the foliage are less densely packed. The spread of the tree's branches remains largely unchanged, but more sunlight can dapple through the thinner mass, allowing woodland plants below the tree to thrive.
Crown Reduction retains the density of the tree, but reduces the height and spread of its branches, making it more compact.
Tree Pruning in Sutton
Regular, prudent pruning of your trees helps to keep them in good condition. A qualified tree surgeon can spot where pests and diseases are causing damage to the plant and remove those branches to protect the rest of the tree.
Correct pruning procedures are essential: cutting off branches to close to the trunk, or leaving wounds untreated can invite fungi, pests and diseases to invade the tree, causing more long term damage. Our expert tree surgeons in Caterham have many years' experience treating native and imported trees throughout the county, and will be delighted to advise you on the best way to ensure the health of your trees.
