Dead wooding: Ensuring Safety and Tree Health

Dead wooding involves the removal of dead, dying, or decaying branches from a tree. This essential tree maintenance task is crucial for:

  • Safety: Dead branches pose a significant risk of falling, potentially damaging property or causing injury.

  • Tree Health: Removing deadwood helps prevent decay from spreading to other parts of the tree.

  • Improved Appearance: Clearing out dead branches enhances the tree’s structure and visual appeal.

Our skilled arborists use advanced techniques to safely and efficiently remove deadwood, ensuring the health and safety of your trees.

Retrenchment Pruning: Supporting Aging Trees

Retrenchment pruning is a specialized technique used to manage the natural aging process of mature or veteran trees. This method:

  • Mimics the natural process of crown retrenchment, where older trees reduce their canopy size.

  • Reduces mechanical stress on the tree, making it more stable and less prone to collapse.

  • Promotes the growth of new, healthy shoots to maintain the tree’s vitality.

At EGD Services Ltd, we understand the importance of preserving mature trees for their ecological and aesthetic value. Our team carefully plans and executes retrenchment pruning to balance the needs of the tree with its surroundings.
