Pruning is necessary for several reasons, including the continued health of the tree, but often because branches are encroaching or overhanging areas that make them a potential hazard. If you're wondering when is the best time to prune trees in the UK, it's typically during the dormant season, from late autumn to early spring, to avoid disrupting the tree’s growth cycle. In the debate of tree topping vs pruning, pruning is the healthier choice, as it focuses on selective cutting to promote the tree’s well-being, while tree topping can cause long-term harm.

Whatever the situation, our specialist team of tree surgeons will prune your trees perfectly, rendering them safe and making them more healthy. The work will be scheduled for the optimum time for pruning, depending on the species and whether they are deciduous or evergreen. On another note regarding the question “when is the worst time to prune trees in the UK” the answer is during late spring or summer when trees are actively growing, as this can lead to stress and potential damage.

The crown reduction process is where the crown is trimmed back to make it more manageable while keeping the basic natural shape of the tree.

This method reduces the risk of branches affecting nearby structures and makes the tree more stable during high winds. When considering options like tree topping vs crown reduction, crown reduction is generally preferred, as it maintains the tree’s health and natural shape, unlike tree topping, which can cause long-term damage.

While similar to crown reduction, this process aims to reduce the density of the tree canopy by removing smaller branches. Dead, weak or crowded branches are removed, but the shape of the tree remains the same.

Essentially, this is to allow my light and airflow through the canopy without altering the tree's height or spread.

Tree surgeons use this technique to create more space beneath the canopy. They do this by removing all of the lower branches, often to allow easier access for vehicles or people, or to prevent damage to buildings.

It's an excellent way to keep the tree looking great while allowing it to work well with its surroundings.

Dead wooding is a type of pruning that removes dead, dying or diseased branches without putting the rest of the tree at risk.

Deadwood looks unattractive and attracts pests and diseases, while dead or dying branches can become a hazard if they fall, causing damage or injury.

Our qualified arborists will inspect the tree to assess its condition before recommending the right course of action.

Once trees have been felled, the stump and roots can be problematic as they begin to rot. Aside from being an obstacle, the stump attracts pests, while rotting roots can lead to subsidence. There's also a chance of regrowth as the felled tree puts out shoots and saplings. If you're concerned about these issues, it's important to consider the tree stump grinding cost to effectively remove the stump and prevent future problems.

Our fully trained tree surgeons will use a stump grinder that effectively turns the stump into woodchips and sawdust, eliminating the problem completely.

When an area needs to be cleared for development, it's important to do this sensitively and effectively, minimising the environmental impact on the surrounding area.
