PRUNING
Trim (a tree, shrub, or bush) by cutting away dead or overgrown branches or stems, especially to encourage growth.
POLLARDING
Pollarding, a powerful pruning technique, not only allows you to manage the size of your trees and shrubs but also ensures they remain in their designated space, offering a practical and visually appealing solution for your garden or outdoor area.
​
By implementing annual pollarding, you can prevent these plants from outgrowing their surroundings and casting excessive shade. This technique offers a practical and aesthetically pleasing solution for managing your garden or outdoor space.
Moreover, pollarding is a crucial practice for the health and safety of broadleaf trees like beeches, oaks, maples, and planes. It not only keeps these trees healthy but also ensures their safety.
​
There is compelling evidence that pollarding is an effective way to prevent or reduce subsidence. By taking proactive measures to minimise risk and avoid the onset of subsidence, we can protect your property from potential damage. It is crucial to address the issue before subsidence occurs, as pollarding may only sometimes mitigate the problem. In cases where subsidence has led to insurance payouts, some insurers have included clauses in policy renewals specifying height restrictions for trees to prevent recurrence.
CROWN REDUCTION
Crown reduction is all about giving a tree's canopy a little trim to help manage its size. It involves carefully cutting back the branches and foliage at the top and outer edges, which can help the tree stay healthy and maintain its natural shape. This technique is perfect for managing mature trees that may have outgrown their space or need to be kept at a smaller size.
CROWN THINNING
Trees with thick foliage are more prone to being uprooted by strong winds. By selectively pruning the inner branches, better airflow through the crown is achieved, significantly reducing the wind resistance on the tree. This thinning process also increases the amount of light that reaches the surrounding area thereby promoting healthier growth for the tree and benefiting nearby plants and grass.
CROWN LIFTING
This practice involves trimming branches from the lower part of the tree's crown to allow more light and air to pass through, and to balance the tree's structure. Additionally, it helps ensure that trees maintain a safe distance from buildings and roads, complying with regulatory requirements.
TREE REMOVAL
Tree removal is the process of safely and efficiently cutting down and eliminating a tree from a specific location.
​
Sometimes it is necessary to remove trees for practical reasons. whether it is because instead they are diseased, dying, or posing a risk to safety, such as growing too close to buildings or power lines, we at Canopy Climbers take the decision to fell a tree very seriously.
TREE FELLING
If we need to remove your tree, rest assured that we will take care of obtaining the necessary permits and ensure the process is carried out safely by our fully qualified team.
STUMP GRINDING
Stumps can be a real hassle. That is where our stump grinding team comes in. We specialise in completely removing tree stumps, making it easier for you to develop your land or plant new trees. Our highly trained team can tackle almost any stump.
​
Stump grinding is our preferred method over stump removal because it is less invasive, leaving your landscape undisturbed and avoiding the creation of large holes in your yard. By grinding stumps, we also eliminate potential hazards like tripping and pest infestations, allowing you to immediately use the area for replanting or other landscaping projects. With our help, homeowners can maintain a clean and safe outdoor space by efficiently eliminating stumps.
​
We also provide chemical treatments for stumps, particularly for broadleaf trees, which generally require such treatments to prevent regrowth after being felled. This approach ensures that the stump does not regenerate.
​
Our fully trained and experienced staff perform all tasks to an exceptional standard, prioritising Health & Safety and adhering strictly to the latest British Standards (BS3998/BS5837).
