Overview
About Crown Removal
Crown work is how you keep a tree that has outgrown its position without taking the whole thing down. Reducing or removing the crown brings the height and the spread back under control, takes weight off limbs that have grown long and heavy, and puts light back into the rooms and borders the tree had started to shade.

The process
How the job runs
- 1
Look at the tree and its surroundings
We check what is within falling distance, how equipment and waste get in and out, and whether the tree is protected or sits in a conservation area.
- 2
Set up and protect
Ground and planting under the work area are covered, and the drop zone is kept clear before anything is cut.
- 3
Work in sections
In a garden there is almost never room to fell in one piece, so the tree comes down in manageable sections, lowered rather than dropped.
- 4
Clear up and walk the finished job
Brash is chipped or bagged and taken away and the timber is removed or left stacked if you want it, then we go round the finished job with you and leave the ground raked off and tidy.
The price
Crown Removal costs
No two jobs price the same, and anyone quoting over the phone without seeing it is guessing. These are the things that actually move the number, and the visit to work them out is free.
- The height and spread of the tree
- Whether the work needs climbing or can be reached from the ground
- What sits under the crown and has to be protected
- The volume of waste generated
Why choose us
Why people call us for this
- 1
Private homes only
We only work on private homes and gardens, so a domestic job is the job, not a gap between contracts.
- 2
The groundwork gets its time
The groundwork gets the time it needs. That is unglamorous, and it is the whole difference between a surface that lasts and one that moves.
- 3
Waste leaves with us
Waste leaves with us, so you are not left disposing of spoil, old slabs or brash.
- 4
One point of contact
You deal with the person doing the work, so nothing gets lost between a salesman and a fitter.
