Crown reductions is a process that involves reducing the overall size of your tree's canopy. Crown reduction is most effective when pruning the tree's limbs evenly throughout the entire crown area. Special care is taken to remove any deadwood or crossing branches. This process reduces the disease and pathogens that infect a tree.
We typically complete crown reductions in Norbury to two specifications: we remove a percentage of the tree, this is typically no more than 25%, or, we work towards a pre-agreed diameter radius reduction, for example, we reduce to a specified radius of 8 metres and/or a height of 20 metres. Typically to keep a tree both healthy and natural in appearance, we rarely reduce foliage to anything greater than 30%.
There are several clear benefits to having a crown reduction completed on your tree in Norbury, these include: the prevention of later damage to the tree, we are able to properly balance the tree's weight, we are able to reduce any vigorous growth, crown reduction ensures a healthy re-growth and possibly the biggest advantage is that you won't need to retrim again for at least 3 years.
Crown thinning is a process whereby we remove any inner limbs or branches, paying special attention to the evenness throughout a tree's total crown. By completing crown thinning you are allowing more natural light to pass through the tree. This can be especially beneficial should you require more sunlight to hit the ground area beneath your tree. Tree thinning will alter your tree's natural shape as we will need to remove all deadwood and any crossing branches.
The benefits of crown thinning your tree in Norbury would be that it allows more natural light to pass through the tree. Your tree will look lighter in appearance and the remaining parts of the tree will improve in health and strength by protecting the main branches.
Routine trimming will keep your hedges neat and enable fresh new shoots to fill any unwanted gaps. To book a crown thinning appointment for the Norbury area or for a quick quotation, please call our friendly team on: 0208 089 4080.
