Deadwooding removes dead, broken or hanging branches that could fall onto people, vehicles, buildings or paths. It is a focused safety treatment that preserves the healthy structure of the tree.
Where it matters most
We inspect the canopy and prioritise branches over frequently used areas such as driveways, play spaces, entrances, roads and footpaths. The level of work is matched to the site: a garden tree may need targeted removal, while a busy public or commercial setting may require a more detailed specification.
Care for the tree and site
- Climbing or access equipment selected for the location
- Controlled lowering near roofs, glass or delicate planting
- Consideration for wildlife habitat and nesting birds
- Branches processed and the work area left tidy
Deadwood can be a natural and valuable habitat where it can safely remain. Our aim is to manage genuine risk without unnecessary pruning.
Not sure what you are seeing?
Send a photograph of the whole tree and the affected branches. We can advise whether a site assessment, deadwooding or another treatment is appropriate.
