Tree pruning and crown lifting by our arborists
Expert arborists for crown lifting
Is your tree obstructing pathways or blocking sunlight from reaching your property? Crown lifting is a tree pruning technique that can address these issues.
During crown lifting, our tree surgeons create more space beneath the tree canopy by removing the lower branches. This allows a safe and unobstructed passage for people, cars, and even sunlight. This not only improves functionality but also enhances the aesthetics of your property by opening up the space beneath the tree.
At Tree Services Default, we prioritise safety and environmental responsibility. All our crown lifting work is carried out by NPTC-qualified arborists, ensuring adherence to industry best practices. We also maintain comprehensive public liability insurance and strive to recycle all wood waste whenever possible.

Crown lifting: The benefits
Crown lifting, also known as canopy raising, involves carefully removing lower branches to create more space beneath the tree. This improves visibility, allows for easier access, and enhances the tree’s overall appearance. Here are just some of the benefits that it offers:
Good for tree health
Sometimes, if a tree has a dense canopy, this can hinder its growth. Crown lifting can improve light penetration, allowing the tree to thrive. This also benefits surrounding plants and grass by increasing sunlight and reducing competition for resources.
Improves safety
When trees grow down, they can block the pathways and driveways, so heads are bumped. Crown lifting removes these lower branches, creating a safer and more open space beneath the tree. This also reduces the risk of branches breaking off in strong winds
Better appearance
A dense, unkempt canopy can obstruct views of your property and surrounding features. Crown lifting improves the tree’s appearance by creating a more balanced and elegant shape. It also opens up your space, making it feel bigger.
Enhances access
Crown lifting improves access and visibility by creating more space beneath your trees. Therefore, walkways, driveways, and buildings will become easier to navigate.
Extends lifespan
Dead or dying branches weaken trees, making them vulnerable to weather, pests, and disease. Investing in deadwooding safeguards your trees by improving their structural integrity and reducing the risk of future decline or damage.
Increases air circulation
Low-hanging branches obstruct air circulation, creating stagnant pockets that favour fungal growth and pests. Crown lifting improves airflow, reducing the risk of disease and minimising wind damage to the tree.
