A practical approach to tree pruning
The right cut depends on what you are trying to achieve. A branch rubbing a roof, growth blocking a path and a dense canopy over a garden may all need different treatment. We look at the tree’s form, condition and surroundings before deciding which branches should be removed or shortened.
Dublin gardens often have mature trees squeezed into relatively small spaces. Careful pruning can improve light and clearance without leaving a tree looking stripped or unnecessarily reduced.
What can be included
- Removal of dead, damaged or troublesome branches
- Clearance from roofs, paths, driveways and garden structures
- Selective pruning to improve balance and manage growth
- Advice where crown reduction or crown lifting is the more suitable service
- Branch and green-waste clearance options
