Crown thinning involves selectively removing branches throughout a tree's crown to reduce density.

Why thinning is used

Thinning vs reduction

Unlike crown reduction, thinning isn't primarily aimed at making a tree smaller - the overall height and spread broadly stay the same. It's more about the density of the canopy than its dimensions.

Not every tree needs thinning, which is why we assess before recommending it. Call Herring on 07780 727385.
