Is Your Tree Getting Too Big For Its Surroundings? If It Is, You Need Our Crown Reductions Service


Tom Francis Tree Services offers a crown reductions service to its customers in the Northamptonshire area. If a tree is getting too big for its surroundings, it can create a range of problems.

When we visit you at your home in Northamptonshire, we will complete an assessment. This will help us to determine whether a crown reduction service is needed. If it isn’t, then we will use our knowledge and experience to come up with an alternative recommendation. Should we proceed, we’ll preserve the appearance of your tree.

Reducing Tree Height: Why It’s Important


Our crown reduction service involves lessening the weight of a tree to create less stress. To achieve this, we need to scale the tree down – both in terms of its height and how its crown is spread. This means that the tree has less of a load to bear and makes it less wind resistance, which means it’ll be less likely to fail when exposed to extreme weather.

A range of issues could be caused if you don’t use a crown reduction service. If your tree is overcrowding your home, it could create too much shade or prevent light from reaching neighbouring properties. The additional stress placed on the branches of your tree could cause them to snap and fall – creating an unwanted hazard.

Our crown reduction service will restore your tree to its original health. We will work carefully to reduce it to a scaled down version of its original form that will no longer pose a risk to your home, the people who live in it and anyone who might pass by. Your tree will still enhance the character of your Northamptonshire home, due to our precise approach.

We have the expertise to offer a wide range of services. In addition to crown reduction, we can remove deadwood that might otherwise lead to a tree becoming diseased – meaning it would need to be cut down. In the event that a tree needs to removed, we can either fell it or dismantle it in sections that are then lowered to the ground using specialist equipment.
