Tree Pruning in Kent
Our members’ tree pruning services are implemented to a high standard and in a fashion that minimises stress on the trees. All projects implemented use cuts to the branch collar , as specified in guidelines BS3998 Recommendations for tree work (2010), ensuring the avoidance of flush cuts.
In the case of dead, diseased or damaged tree branches, our Kent tree surgeons will ensure pruning is implemented back to the branch collar. Where branches are crossed or rubbing, we take great care to ensure we prune correctly; leaving a healthy, balanced and aesthetically pleasing final tree.

All large limbs are lowered by ropes and harnesses to our groundsmen in a controlled manner, ensuring safety for the members who use our service, the tree being pruned, and any surrounding buildings or property.
