When it comes to maintaining a safe, attractive, and thriving garden, tree care plays a bigger role than many homeowners in Egham, Surrey might realise. While some trees simply require light pruning, others need more specialised attention to ensure they don’t become hazardous or hinder property use. That’s where professional tree surgery services become essential.
Here at NS Tree Surgery Egham, we understand that healthy trees add value to your property and peace of mind to your home life. Below are the seven key services every homeowner should know about—and consider.
1. Crown Reduction
This process involves reducing the overall size of the tree’s canopy. It helps maintain a tree’s structure while reducing wind resistance, minimising the risk of storm damage, and preventing encroachment on buildings or neighbouring gardens.
2. Crown Thinning
Rather than reducing the size, crown thinning removes select branches throughout the crown to allow more light and air through. Ideal for gardens that feel overly shaded or trees that are too dense, this method improves light penetration and overall tree health.
3. Crown Lifting
By removing the lower branches of a tree, crown lifting creates clearance for driveways, footpaths, fences, or sightlines. It’s particularly useful for improving space and visibility without removing the tree entirely.
4. Deadwood Removal
Even healthy trees can develop dead or dying branches, which pose a hazard to people, pets, and property below. Deadwood removal targets these weak limbs before they fall, enhancing both safety and appearance.
5. Tree Felling
In some cases, a tree may need to be removed due to disease, damage, or inappropriate placement. Tree felling is a controlled process of bringing a tree down safely and responsibly, often followed by stump removal.
6. Stump Grinding
After a tree has been felled, the stump can remain a trip hazard or attract pests. Stump grinding removes the stump below ground level, allowing for replanting or paving over the area with ease.
7. Hedge Cutting & Maintenance
Proper hedge maintenance enhances curb appeal and prevents overgrowth. Our hedge trimming service ensures neat, well-shaped hedges that complement the rest of your garden, while also complying with any boundary agreements.
Conclusion
Regular tree surgery isn’t just about appearance—it’s about safety, health, and getting the most from your outdoor space. Whether it’s lifting a crown to open a view, or removing a dangerous dead limb before it causes damage, professional care makes all the difference.
