What is Crown Reduction and Thinning?

Tree crown reduction involves reducing the overall size of a tree’s canopy. This process helps manage the height or spread of a tree while preserving its natural shape. It’s ideal for trees that have outgrown their space or are encroaching on buildings, power lines, or other structures. Crown reduction can also be used for removing dead branches and promoting healthy growth.

Tree crown thinning, on the other hand, focuses on selectively removing branches within the crown to allow more light and air to pass through. This reduces wind resistance and improves tree health without altering its overall shape or size.
