A well-maintained garden not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of your property but also adds functionality, comfort, and value. One of the most effective ways to transform your outdoor space is through professional tree care. Whether you’re aiming to increase natural light, create a more usable layout, or simply improve safety, tree surgery can make a noticeable difference. At NS Tree Surgery Chertsey, we provide expert tree services to help homeowners across Chertsey, Surrey optimise their gardens and outdoor areas for better living.
Here are some of the most effective tree services that contribute to more enjoyable and practical outdoor spaces.
Crown Reduction: Open Up Your Garden Without Losing Your Trees
Crown reduction is the process of reducing the overall height and spread of a tree’s canopy, making it more manageable while preserving its natural form.
Benefits:
- Increases sunlight reaching patios, lawns, and garden rooms
- Reduces overshadowing of outdoor seating or planting areas
- Helps shape the tree to better suit the proportions of your garden
- Minimises risk of storm damage by reducing wind resistance
This service is ideal for trees that have outgrown their space or block key areas of your garden.
Crown Lifting: Clear Space for Movement and Visibility
Crown lifting involves removing the lower branches of a tree to raise the canopy, improving clearance and usability of the space beneath.
Benefits:
- Creates headroom for pathways, garden furniture, or driveways
- Opens up views across your property without removing the tree
- Enhances the sense of space in smaller or enclosed gardens
- Improves lawn health by allowing more light underneath
At NS Tree Surgery Chertsey, crown lifting is carried out with precision to ensure a balanced, healthy canopy.
Tree Pruning: Keep Trees Safe, Healthy, and Attractive
Pruning is essential for the long-term health of trees and the safety of outdoor areas. It involves the selective removal of dead, diseased, or overgrown branches.
Benefits:
- Encourages healthy growth and a balanced structure
- Prevents branches from encroaching on garden buildings or play areas
- Enhances the visual appeal of mature trees
- Reduces the risk of falling limbs in high-traffic zones
Regular pruning improves both the safety and aesthetics of your outdoor living environment.
Tree Removal: Make Room for Something New
In some cases, removing a tree is the best option to reclaim space, reduce shading, or resolve safety concerns.
Benefits:
- Frees up space for decking, lawns, or garden features
- Prevents damage to paving, walls, or foundations caused by root systems
- Eliminates risk from unstable, dying, or storm-damaged trees
- Opens up sightlines to the rest of the garden or beyond
Our team at NS Tree Surgery Chertsey ensures that all removals are conducted safely and responsibly, with minimal disruption to your property.
Hedge Reduction and Shaping: Define Borders with Style
Hedges play a key role in structuring a garden. When properly managed, they contribute privacy and visual order to outdoor spaces.
Benefits:
- Maintains clean lines and well-defined boundaries
- Enhances kerb appeal and garden structure
- Prevents overgrowth that can block light or reduce usable space
- Encourages healthy, dense growth for a neater appearance
We offer hedge trimming and reduction as part of our regular maintenance services in Chertsey, Surrey.
Stump Grinding: Clear the Way for New Landscaping
Once a tree has been removed, the stump can be unsightly and obstructive. Stump grinding removes the remaining base and roots below ground level.
Benefits:
- Allows for turfing, planting, or paving over the area
- Removes a trip hazard in play or walking zones
- Prevents regrowth or fungal spread from decaying stumps
- Creates a clean, open finish ready for your next garden project
At NS Tree Surgery Chertsey, we use specialist stump grinding equipment to complete the job quickly and safely.
