Some common questions we get
asked about Tree Reduction
Tree reduction is the careful pruning of a tree’s height and/or spread to make it smaller and more manageable, while maintaining its natural shape and health.
A tree reduction is often carried out to prevent branches from interfering with buildings, power lines, or neighbouring properties, or simply to let in more light to your garden.
When carried out by professionals, tree reduction is safe and beneficial. At The Art of Tree Surgery, we follow British Standards (BS3998) to ensure the tree’s health and structure are protected.
The amount depends on the tree species, its condition, and location. Generally, we reduce no more than 30% of the crown to avoid stress or long-term damage to the tree.
Most trees benefit from reduction every 3–5 years, but this can vary depending on growth rate and surroundings. We can provide tailored advice during a site visit.
