Crown lifting involves the careful removal of the lower branches of a tree to raise the canopy. This technique is ideal for creating clearance beneath the tree—whether it’s to improve access, allow more light into your garden, or prevent obstruction over paths, roads, or buildings.
It’s a popular choice for both residential and commercial clients looking to maintain healthy trees while improving space and visibility.
Crown thinning is the selective removal of smaller branches throughout the canopy. This reduces the density of the tree without altering its shape or size. Thinning allows more light and air to pass through the crown, which helps prevent disease, reduces wind resistance, and encourages healthy growth.
It’s particularly useful for trees that have become too dense or are casting excessive shade over gardens or properties.
