With a commitment to exceptional service for home gardens, schools, hospitality, and more, our experienced arborists provide expert solutions to protect and enhance your trees.
Crown Reduction
Trees with a large canopy (crown) can become problematic and unsightly. At Vertex Tree Surgeons, we can reduce the ends of all branches back to suitable ‘growth points’. This encourages healthy growth and minimises dieback. As a result, the tree will be left with a reduced crown size, an even shape, and a healthy overall structure. Our certified arborists ensure correct pruning cuts are used at all times, promoting the health and aesthetic of your trees.
Crown Lifting
Tree crown lifting involves the removal of lower branches in order to evenly lift the height of the crown’s base. By increasing the clearance between the ground and the lower branches, crown lifting allows more light to pass through or under the tree. This can be of major benefit to the surrounding environment. As professional arborists, we will assess the tree and remove the lower branches according, leaving a natural-looking and evenly lifted crown.
Crown Thinning
Crown thinning involves evenly pruning a tree’s secondary branches whilst maintaining its overall size and natural structure. This technique doesn’t alter the overall size of the tree, it is the preferred method to minimise potential storm damage. The benefits of crown thinning:
✓ Reduces the density of the tree to allow more light to pass through the canopy
✓ Reduces wind resistance and sail effect of a dense canopy
✓ Reduces weight and the possibility of heavily loaded branches snapping in high winds
✓ Improves form and reduces growth rate
Pollarding
Pollarding refers to the removal of small branches or regrowth, leaving larger limbs and over time developing a pollard head at the tips. For trees that may not have been planted in the correct place or are struggling to support themselves due to age or decay, this can be an effective way to preserve them. Often, trees in cities and overcrowded areas can have their growth stunted through a crown retrenchment technique. This involves reducing the canopy in stages bi-annually, allowing the tree time to recover between pruning cycles.
Deadwood Removal
Trees will naturally shed small dead twigs and branches, which is normally nothing to be concerned about. However, it can become hazardous when deadwood amasses in large quantities. This should be removed when a tree is overhanging in roads, public footpaths, buildings or recreational areas. Our local tree surgeons in High Wycombe will assess the structure of the tree, perform an aerial inspection, and remove any dead limbs or branches they believe could prove to be dangerous or unsightly.
