What is Tree Crown Lifting?

Tree crown lifting involves the selective removal of lower, overgrown branches or branches that are older or damaged to create a higher clearance between the base of the crown and the ground, allowing higher, well-lit branches to thrive. 

This can be done for a variety of reasons, including:

  • Increased light and airflow: Lifting the crown allows more sunlight to penetrate through the canopy, brightening up your garden and promoting healthier plant growth beneath the tree. Improved airflow also helps to reduce the risk of fungal diseases.

  • Enhanced views: Removing obstructive branches can reveal breathtaking vistas that were previously hidden. This is especially beneficial for properties with scenic surroundings or those with limited outdoor space.

  • Improved safety: Overhanging branches can pose a risk to pedestrians, vehicles, and even your property. Crown lifting can minimise these risks by creating a safe clearance zone.

  • Maintaining tree health: In some cases, crown lifting can be necessary to promote healthy growth and development. This might be the case for trees that are competing for light or that have branches rubbing against each other, causing damage.

    Crown lifting carried out by qualified arborists can help keep your trees looking good and help them thrive.
