Pollarding & Copicing
Traditional Tree Management
-
Pollarding: A pruning technique used to maintain trees in a smaller, controlled form by regularly cutting branches back to the same point.
-
Coppicing: A woodland management practice that encourages new growth by cutting tree stems close to the ground.
Health & Safety Checks

-
Reducing wind resistance

Controlling water uptake
-
Managing tree size in restricted spaces
-

Protecting People, Property, and Trees
Our health and safety checks ensure that your trees remain safe, healthy, and well-maintained. We specialize in:​
-
Dead Wooding: Removing dead or decaying branches that could pose a hazard to people, buildings, or vehicles.
-
Crown Cleaning: Clearing diseased or damaged branches to enhance the tree’s health and safety.
For larger, regularly maintained areas such as the communal London squares, we go a step further as the Massaria Fungus found in the London Planes and the scale of these trees can cause added health and safety risk. We add an additional understanding of what's going on in these trees by providing:
-
Photographic Evidence: Clear images documenting the work performed.
-
Mapped Records: Detailed maps indicating areas where dead wooding has been carried out.
Crown Lifting
Enhance Clearance and Light
By selectively removing lower branches, crown lifting increases the distance between the tree’s canopy and the ground. This is perfect for improving clearance and allowing more light to surrounding areas.
Crown Thinning
Balance and Lightness
Crown thinning involves removing selected secondary branches to reduce crown density while maintaining the tree's natural shape. Benefits include:
-
Increasing light penetration
-
Restoring balance to uneven crowns
-
Reducing weight on heavy limbs
Stump Removal & Grinding
Clean, Efficient Removal
We provide professional stump removal and grinding services to eliminate unsightly stumps and prepare the ground for turf or landscaping. After removal, we can backfill with topsoil for a seamless finish.
