## Crown Reductions in Kingston upon Thames
Riverside Kingston, from Canbury through to Hampton Wick, is dominated by crack willow, hybrid poplar and alder. Crack willow earns its name: it sheds heavy limbs in still, hot weather with no warning. A cyclical reduction every three years, taking the extension growth back hard, keeps limb weight and leverage within safe limits and is far cheaper than clearing a failed tree off a fence.

Inland, the Victorian streets of Norbiton and the interwar plots in Surbiton and New Malden have the usual mix of sycamore, lime and Norway maple planted too close to the house. Here reduction is about light and gutters, and a 20 to 25 per cent pull-in normally solves both without compromising the tree.

All work is specified and carried out to BS3998, and where the Royal Borough of Kingston has a TPO or Conservation Area designation in place — common across Surbiton, Coombe and Kingston Hill — we prepare the notice or application with a written cutting specification and submit it for you.
