Different pruning methods

Large trees can be pruned in different ways, depending on how the tree is intended to develop. Below, we briefly explain the various pruning methods.

Maintenance pruning: This is the standard type of pruning used to maintain the health of a tree. It involves removing dead, damaged or diseased branches.

Rejuvenation pruning: Rejuvenation pruning is used to restore older, overgrown trees. It mainly involves removing older branches.

Formative pruning: Formative pruning is carried out to improve the appearance of a tree.

Crown pruning: Crown pruning involves pruning the branches in the crown of the tree. This can reduce wind resistance and allow more light to pass through.

Crown thinning: The removal of branches to reduce the amount of foliage. This improves light penetration and reduces wind resistance.

Wound treatment: Treating wounds on a tree to reduce the risk of infection.

Disease- or pest-related pruning: Removing branches affected by diseases, pests or fungal infections.

Frequently asked questions about tree pruning

When can I prune my trees?

The best time to prune depends on the tree species. Some trees are best pruned in winter, while others, such as willows, are preferably pruned in summer. We are happy to advise you on this during a tree inspection.

Do I need a permit for tree pruning?

Usually not, but for protected trees or in conservation areas, a permit may be required. We check this in advance and arrange it if necessary, so your pruning work can proceed without any concerns.

Do you also prune hedges?

Yes, in addition to trees, we also prune hedges. Read more about the best time to prune a hedge.
