What is included in tree pruning
A branch extending towards a fence is easier to assess when the photograph also shows where its trunk stands. Draw the boundary on a copy of the picture and mark which side can be used. If a seating area, gate or shared route is beneath the branch, show that too. The job may be limited by the available space even when the tree is within the height scope.
- Ground-based pruning and shaping on assessed garden trees up to 5 metres
- An agreed branch list and accessible working area
- Gathering the cuttings from the specified pruning
What is not included
- Felling, climbing and crown reduction
- Assuming permission to use neighbouring land
- Work that has unresolved planning checks
