WHY PRUNE TREES?

Reduce the overall size of a tree or make it safe (crown reduction)

Remove low hanging branches (crown raising)

Reduce crown density (crown thinning)

Restore fruit trees in winter

Remove dangerous limbs or deadwood

Tree pruning in Kent should only be carried out if it is deemed necessary to do so, since any cutting can potentially weaken a tree and each pruning wound exposes vulnerable tree tissue, which may be invaded by wood-decaying organisms. Generally, pruning should aim to remove no more than 15-30% of the crown at any one time.
