Tree Care

A typical Crown Thin is carried out to reduce the overall density of the crown, often to give the tree and less heavy look, to clean out dead or crossed branches and to allow more light.

A typical Crown Lift is carried out to increase the overall ground clearance of the lowest branches, often over footpaths, garages, conservatorys etc.

A typical Crown reduction is carried out to reduce the overall size and spread of the tree. The operation should be carried out by pruning the tips of each branch back to a suitable branch union in a manner to create a balanced shape and outline.

The removal of dead wood and crossing/split branches within the crown. Often done for health and safety reasons as well as for aesthetics.

The removal of all of a trees growth back to the “pollard knuckles” We recommend every 3-5 years depending on species. Doing it on a rotation like this makes it quicker, easier and more affordable in the long term.

At Wardens we provide Safe and controlled removal of the tree, either in small sections or if possible felled in one and cut up once on the ground. The stumps will always be cut as low to the ground as practically possible.

We can provide you with a well managed hedge. Whether it’s a heavy height reduction or a light annual trim, we can help keep your hedges in check.
