Conifer removal in Sale, Manchester

This large conifer tree looked like it had been reduced many years ago, then left to grow unchecked.  The result was a mass of straight stems growing from a spreading trunk creating a very wide canopy.  The Tree House Masters would have loved it! http://www.animalplanet.com/tv-shows/treehouse-masters/  Unfortunately the customer wanted it down as it was taking up too much of his garden and encroaching on the neighbour’s space.

a lot of logs

Nearly finished – just the rest of the trunk to get down, remove all the logs and tidy up the area.

We managed to harvest a lot of the straight poles for future use constructing log shelters etc.

Reducing a willow and holly in Chorlton

The customer here liked having trees in his garden, but was concerned that they were starting to block out a lot of the light to their lawn and new extension.  We agreed on reducing the willow by 30% and thinning the crown.  The holly got a 30% reduction and a trim.
