Pollarding
Pollarding Services: Controlled Growth & Long-Term Tree Management
Pollarding is a specialized tree maintenance technique designed to control growth, extend tree lifespan, and maintain a uniform shape. It involves the regular removal of upper branches to encourage the development of a dense canopy, making trees more manageable in urban and residential areas.
At A1 Gardening, we provide professional pollarding services to keep trees healthy, safe, and aesthetically pleasing. Our skilled arborists perform precise cuts to stimulate new growth while preventing overexpansion. This method is especially beneficial for trees in confined spaces, such as streets, gardens, and commercial landscapes.
Regular pollarding reduces the risk of overgrown branches, improves light penetration, and ensures trees remain structurally sound. By maintaining trees at a desired size, we help prevent interference with buildings, power lines, and pedestrian walkways while promoting a well-balanced landscape.
