Tree Works

Crown Reduction

Crown reduction reduces the height and spread of a tree while keeping its natural shape, which eases shading, cuts wind resistance and reduces the weight on heavy limbs. Done properly it is far kinder to the tree than topping, and we make measured cuts back to suitable growth points so the tree recovers well.

  • An assessment of the tree and the right reduction for it
  • Measured cuts back to suitable growth points
  • Balanced reduction that keeps the natural shape
  • Checks for protection orders first
  • Full clear-up of arisings

FAQs

Crown Reduction questions

Is crown reduction the same as topping?

No. Topping cuts limbs back to stubs and harms the tree. Crown reduction makes measured cuts to growth points, keeping the shape and health of the tree.

How much can you take off?

It depends on the species and condition, but a sensible reduction keeps the tree healthy. We will advise on what is safe for your tree.

Will crown reduction harm my tree?

No, when done correctly. We make measured cuts to suitable growth points so the tree stays healthy and keeps its shape.

How often does a tree need reducing?

It varies by species and growth rate, but every few years is typical for a tree kept to a set size.
