Crown Reductions - FAQs

Click or tap on the headings below to learn more about our crown reduction services:

A tree crown reduction is a pruning technique aimed at reducing the overall size and spread of a tree’s canopy. This involves selectively removing branches and foliage to achieve a smaller, more manageable crown while maintaining the tree’s health and structural integrity.

Tree crown reductions are typically performed for several reasons, including reducing the risk of storm damage by minimising wind resistance, preventing interference with utility lines or buildings, improving aesthetics, and promoting the overall health and vigour of the tree by removing dead or diseased branches.

The ideal time for a tree crown reduction depends on the species and its specific needs. In general, it’s best to conduct crown reductions during the tree’s dormant season, typically in late winter or early spring. However, certain species may benefit from pruning at other times of the year, so it’s crucial to consult with a certified arborist for personalised recommendations.

The amount of reduction possible depends on various factors, including the species, age, health, and structural integrity of the tree. A professional arborist will assess these factors and recommend a suitable reduction percentage to achieve the desired outcome while ensuring the tree’s health and stability. Typically, crown reductions aim for a balanced and proportional reduction rather than arbitrary size reduction.

When performed correctly by trained professionals, tree crown reductions should not harm the tree. In fact, proper pruning techniques can boost the tree’s health and longevity by promoting new growth and improving structural integrity. It’s essential to hire certified arborists or tree care specialists with experience in crown reductions to ensure the job is done safely and effectively.
