We are professional arborists, specialists in pruning, felling, tree applications, planting and stump removal. We are also fully qualified and insured, and approved contractors for Harpenden Town Council and St Albans District. Crown Thinning and Reductions may be necessary at some point in a tree's life to encourage its healthy growth.
When carrying out Crown Thinning the arborist selectively removes branches, increasing the levels of sunlight penetrating the crown and improving the circulation of air through the tree. The removal of deadwood is often necessary for trees that have suffered storm damage, from higher foliage shadowing lower branches or through previous "lopping" activities.
Conifer hedges are at their most attractive when pruned to form a dense leafy coverage. To achieve a desirable hedge it is necessary for it to be pruned in the correct manner with long shoots holding insufficient side branches being pruned to encourage the denser side branches. We provide a full tree and shrub planting service from small trees through to semi mature, either as bare root stock or as containerised plants.
