Crown Lifting

Professional Tree Crown Lifting services throughout Essex

T.H Tree Services specialises in all types of tree surgery including crown lifting.  Essex landowners who want to maintain the height of their tree, but find that the canopy has started to pose an obstruction and danger to passers-by, traffic or buildings, will find crown lifting advantageous.

Crown lifting involves the removal of the lowest branches of a tree’s crown, lifting the height of the crown without affecting the height of the tree.  When a tree’s height is not a problem but low hanging branches are, this is the perfect solution.

If you have a tree that is obstructing walkways and paths then give us a call and we’ll come and do a free survey for you to see if it would be beneficial to carry out crown lifting.  Essex gardens and streets often have trees with overhanging branches that can pose a hazard as they are dangerous for anyone walking, driving or cycling underneath.  Our Essex crown lifting service is suitable for trees of all types and sizes.

Specialists in all Species of Tree Crown Lifting

Our tree crown lifting experts have specialist knowledge of all the common species of trees in the UK including the following:

Oak Tree Crown Lifting

Our expertise in oak tree crown lifting is well respected across Essex. The English oak is probably the best known tree in Britain and definitely the most common. Officially known by its Latin name as Quercus Robur, oak trees regularly grow in excess of 20 metres and sometimes up to 40 metres. The fact they grow so tall and have expansive canopies supported by strong branches is not an issue, as our in-depth experience in oak tree crown lifting Essex wide and our specialist equipment allow us to tackle any task with ease.

Willow Tree Crown Lifting

There are around 400 species of willow tree, known in Latin as Salix meaning ‘sallow’. When mature, willow trees grow to around 10 metres tall and have long lifespans up to 300 years. We have particular expertise in dealing with willow tree crown lifting Essex wide. Due to the breadth of the hanging canopies, dealing with a willow tree that needs its crown lifting does require specific knowhow, which thanks to our long term and wide ranging experience as qualified tree surgeons, we can certainly offer.

Conifer Tree Crown Lifting

Conifer trees are well known for growing to soaring heights, sometimes up to 100 metres. Of the Latin Pinophyta, there are many different types of conifer including yew, pine, cypress and Douglas fir. If you have any type of conifer on your land, perhaps as a hedge or even just a single tree and it needs cutting back, you can rely on our expertise to safely handle it. Even if you have a full row of exceptionally tall conifers, our Essex conifer tree crown lifting experts will be able to find a solution to prune them back to perfection.

Eucalyptus Tree Crown Lifting

The eucalyptus tree is an evergreen variety which benefits from expert attention including coppicing and pollarding. Providing they are regularly pruned, eucalyptus trees can be suitable for small gardens, but left unkempt they will grow to quite a height and even in normal conditions they will easily shed bark and branches. If you have a eucalyptus tree it is important to have any dead wood removed regularly and if the tree has grown quite big it is a good idea to have its crown lifted. Our eucalyptus tree crown lifting service is available Essex wide and we are able to safely handle any job, regardless of the size of the tree.

Cherry Tree Crown Lifting

Cherry belongs to the Prunus group of trees and there are various fruit bearing species across Europe. Cherry trees can grow wide and tall, often up to 10 metres, and despite the fact they produce delicious fruit and beautiful cherry blossom, they can easily become unmanageable. If a cherry tree on your land needs its canopy reducing in size, we can offer the knowhow required and offer a safe and cost effective service as specialist cherry tree crown lifting experts Essex wide.

Ash Tree Crown Lifting

Ash trees, scientifically known as Fraxinus Excelsior, are native to the UK. They can live to a ripe old age of 400 years, although this can be even longer if they are professionally coppiced. Often reaching heights of around 35 metres, the ash tree is known for being tall and elegant, and it is common for them to grow together so that a domed canopy forms. If you have an ash tree in Essex that needs its crown lifting, you can rely on the expertise of the tree surgeons at T.H. Tree Services to undertake the task professionally, safely and efficiently.

Plum Tree Crown Lifting

The plum tree comes from the family known as Prunus Domestica, which also produces damson and greengages. Plum trees are not native to the UK but are still fairly common. They do not grow very tall and are characterised by straight branches and spiny twigs. If you have a plum tree that needs its canopy cutting back or lifting, we can help. Our qualified Essex plum tree crown lifting specialists are experts in caring for many of the UK’s common tree species.

Cedar Tree Crown Lifting

Cedar trees are imposing evergreen conifers. They are native to the Lebanon, eastern parts of the Mediterranean and areas of Asia, but fairly common now in the UK. The Latin name is Cedrus Libani and the wood is a natural insect repellent. Cedar trees generally grow to around 35 metres and they are distinctive by the fact that they have several trunks. Despite the unusual shape, our Essex cedar tree crown lifting experts are able to deal with cutting back a cedar tree’s canopy without issue, and it is no problem at all to reduce the crown of any cedar tree that is blocking light or causing other issues such as interfering with neighbouring property or overhead cables.

Pine Tree Crown Lifting
