A crown reduction brings a tree back to a size that suits your garden while keeping its natural shape, and it's often a better option than taking the tree down altogether. We'll talk you through how much can safely come off before we start.

Signs to look for

When You Might Need It

Too tall

The tree has outgrown the garden and feels too big for the space.

Shading the garden

A large crown is blocking light from the house or lawn.

Wind exposure

A big, heavy crown is catching the wind in exposed spots.

Near buildings

Branches are spreading towards roofs, walls or power lines.

“Peter removed a conifer & replaced part of my mum's fence. Super job for both & left everywhere clean & tidy. Replaced a small front fence for myself & removed a shrub, also left everywhere clean & tidy. Really nice chap, would definitely use again & recommend.”

Susan C. Google

“Very satisfied with the work carried out and would highly recommend. PH tree services have been professional from start to finish, provided a very competitive price for cutting back two very overgrown conifers and several trees surrounding my property, ensuring all debris was removed leaving the garden tidy.”

Crown Reduction FAQs

It depends on the species, age and health of the tree. We'll explain what's safe before any work starts.

If the tree is healthy and you want to keep it, a reduction is often the better option. If it is dead or dangerous, removal may be safer.

Yes. A reduced tree will put on new growth, so most trees benefit from a reduction every few years.
