Crown Lifting
Professional crown lifting services in Surrey, Sussex and Kent
Trees are vital to our landscapes and gardens, offering beautiful views, shade and habitats for local wildlife. However, as they grow larger, low-hanging branches and limbs can sometimes cause issues by obscuring paths, reducing sunlight and becoming a hazard.
At DH Tree Services, we offer professional crown lifting services in Surrey, Sussex and Kent to keep your trees in a safe and healthy condition.
What is crown lifting?
Crown lifting is a highly effective crown reduction solution, involving the removal of low-hanging branches to increase the distance between the tree canopy and ground level. The result is more space underneath the canopy to allow for better light filtration and clearer access.
Whether you need crown lifting services for aesthetical or safety reasons, we offer this valuable tree surgery service to all our customers. We’ll show you how we can shape your tree by removing carefully-selected branches while maintaining its health and structure.
Signs you need crown lifting services
There are several reasons why lifting your tree’s crown may be necessary. This includes:
- OBSTRUCTED PATHS AND DRIVEWAYS: If tree branches are hanging too low, it can cause issues for anyone needing to gain access to walkways.
- BLOCKED SUNLIGHT: The more branches overhang, the more natural light gets blocked from coming into your garden or outdoor spaces.
- DAMAGED BRANCHES: Lower branches can become vulnerable to damage, leading to potential breakages.
- HAZARDOUS TREES: Some low-hanging trees may affect the safety of buildings, fences or power lines.
- OVERGROWN TREE CROWNS: Want your trees to have a nicer shape? Crown lifting is one of the solutions to consider.
- WASTED SPACE: Some people want to use the space underneath trees, e.g. for a bench or widening a driveway.
