🌿 What Is Crown Lifting?
Crown lifting involves the selective removal of a tree’s lower branches, raising the height of the canopy while maintaining the overall health and structure of the tree.
It’s often used to:
- Improve clearance over roads, driveways, paths or roofs
- Allow more light to reach gardens, lawns or buildings
- Increase visibility and security
- Prevent interference with vehicles or pedestrians
- Prepare trees for commercial or landscaping projects
Crown Lifting Expertise
🧠 When Crown Lifting Makes Sense
- Trees overhanging vehicles, buildings or pavements
- Branches blocking sightlines or CCTV
- Shaded lawns or dark rooms needing more natural light
- Trees in public parks, schools or office grounds
- Mature trees near power lines or signage
We always assess each tree carefully to ensure any pruning work complies with BS3998: Tree Work Recommendations and supports long-term tree health.
