Effective pruning is a skilled job that can be of great benefit to trees, increasing the yield of fruit trees and lengthening the life of many species.
Formative pruning is important for young trees of certain species to avoid future structural defects or to create a particular cultivated tree form – specialist work that the team at Elmbridge Tree Services fully understands.
For older trees, Elmbridge Tree Services can provide retrenchment pruning – a technique which reduces the potential for a fully mature tree to collapse or ‘fall apart’ under its own weight due to excessive end-loading on long or weakly attached limbs. Retrenchment pruning is especially useful for managing formerly pollarded trees and mature trees showing signs of dieback.
