A few details that can help

Questions you may want to ask

  • Is thinning suitable for this tree and the result I want?
  • Does the quote include taking away branches and tidying up?

Before you book

Use photos taken from the ground. Ask who will check tree protection and wildlife before the work, and confirm that any required permission is in place. Agree whether branches, timber and the stump are included in removal.

If you want the tree to be shorter or narrower, see crown reduction.
