What We Offer
Our tree topping and canopy management services include controlled reductions, crown reshaping, and selective thinning to improve both safety and appearance. By reducing excessive height and weight, we help to lower the risk of falling branches, increase sunlight in shaded gardens, and create a more balanced shape. We always recommend reduction or thinning over aggressive topping, preserving structural strength and encouraging healthy regrowth.
