Crown reduction experts in East Anglia
Canopy reduction is the reduction in height and spread of the crown (the foliage-bearing portions) of a tree. A tree surgeon may do this to reduce mechanical stress on individual branches or the whole tree, make the tree more suited to its immediate environment, mitigate the effects of shading and light loss, etc. However, the final result should retain the main framework of the crown, and so a significant proportion of the leaf-bearing structure, and leave a similar, although smaller, outline and not necessarily achieve symmetry for its own sake.
Minimal cuts on the tree
When performing a reduction on a tree, M.B. Trees (East Anglia) Ltd tries to create the smallest possible wounds to reduce the risk of pests and diseases. Where there is a dead branch, we will cut back to live wood to promote new growth.
