Tree Pollarding

Project Overview

Top Garden Services was commissioned to pollard several mature trees at a residential property in Great Barton, Suffolk. The trees had outgrown their space, leading to reduced natural light and concerns over long-term maintenance.

Pollarding was chosen as the most suitable method to reduce canopy size while retaining tree structure and promoting healthy regrowth.

Site Conditions

  • Trees located close to property boundaries
  • Overshadowing of garden and neighbouring areas
  • Need for future crown management
  • Consideration given to local wildlife and garden features

Our Approach

Our skilled team carried out the pollarding using climbing and rigging techniques in accordance with BS3998:2010 Tree Work Recommendations.

Key steps included:

  • Pruning each tree to encourage strong future growth
  • Using controlled lowering to avoid damage to property
  • Ensuring minimal disruption to the garden
  • Clearing and recycling all green waste

The Result

  • Canopies reduced and reshaped for balance
  • Trees made safer and easier to manage
  • Improved light access to the garden
  • Site left clean and tidy
  • Set up for simple future maintenance cycles
