Frequently Asked Questions About Tree Trimming

Find answers to common questions about tree trimming and hiring professional arborists in the UK.

What is the difference between crown cleaning and crown thinning?

Crown cleaning and crown thinning are both essential tree trimming techniques but differ in their focus:
  • Crown cleaning: Removes only dead, dying, diseased, damaged, or crossing branches, improving the tree's appearance and reducing hazards. It maintains the natural shape and size of the tree.
  • Crown thinning: Selectively removes branches from *within* the crown, decreasing density while maintaining the tree's natural shape. This improves light penetration, air circulation, and reduces wind resistance.
Both techniques are valuable for tree maintenance and should be performed by qualified arborists who can assess the tree's needs and recommend the appropriate approach.

What is the best time of year to trim trees?

The best time to trim trees depends on several factors:
  • Tree Species: Deciduous trees (those that lose their leaves in the fall) are generally best pruned during their dormant season, from late fall to early spring, as this minimizes stress. Evergreens may tolerate pruning throughout the year, but light pruning in spring is ideal.
  • Type of Pruning: Some pruning can be done to remove deadwood or address specific issues during the growing season; however, this should be minor pruning.
  • Local Climate: Consider extreme heat or cold, as these can affect the tree's healing ability. Avoid pruning during periods of extreme temperatures or dry spells.

It's always recommended to consult with a certified arborist to determine the ideal timing for your specific trees and your local climate.

How often should I trim my trees?

Tree trimming frequency depends on several factors:
  • Species: Some trees require more frequent trimming than others.
  • Age: Younger trees benefit from more frequent pruning to establish good structure.
  • Health: Diseased trees might need more frequent attention.
  • Growth rate: Faster-growing trees require more regular pruning.
  • Location: Trees near structures or power lines might need more frequent trimming for safety.

A general guideline is to have trees inspected at least every 1-2 years by a certified arborist. They can create a tailored maintenance plan that includes the appropriate pruning schedule.

What tools are used for tree trimming?

The specific tools and equipment used by tree trimming professionals vary depending on the size of the tree, the complexity of the project, and the type of trimming required. Here are some common tools you might see:
  • Chainsaws: Used to cut larger branches and fell trees. Arborists are trained in proper chainsaw techniques.
  • Hand saws: Smaller hand saws are used for making more precise cuts on smaller branches and for detailed pruning work.
  • Pruning shears and loppers: Used to remove smaller branches and twigs.
  • Aerial lifts or bucket trucks: Used to provide access to higher branches.
  • Rope and rigging equipment: Used to safely control the movement of branches and safely lower larger limbs to the ground.
  • Wood chippers: Shred the debris, making for more manageable cleanup and disposal.
  • Safety gear: Protective clothing, helmets, gloves, and eye protection are essential.
