Crown Reduction
A smaller, lighter tree that keeps its natural shape and lets more light into the garden.
Crown Reduction
Keep the tree, lose the bulk
A crown reduction brings the height and spread of a tree down evenly, so it still looks like a tree and not a lollipop. It's the usual answer when a tree has outgrown the garden, shades the house or hangs over the roof.
We cut back to healthy side branches, following British Standard BS 3998, which helps the tree heal and keeps regrowth even. We agree how much comes off before we start, usually 20 to 30 percent, and we photograph the tree before and after.
