# Crown Reduction in Kingston upon Thames

Crown reduction in Kingston upon Thames costs around £300 to £950 for a typical garden tree. Along the river, reduction work on crack willow and poplar is not cosmetic — it is the main way to manage the summer limb drop these species are notorious for.

-   Covering KT1, KT2, KT3, KT5 and KT6
-   Cyclical willow and poplar reduction along the Thames
-   Royal Borough of Kingston TPO and Section 211 applications handled
-   BS3998 compliant pruning with written aftercare notes

## 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.

## How Much Does Crown Reductions Cost in Kingston upon Thames ?

£300 – £950

Indicative Kingston range, fixed in writing after a free site survey.

### What Changes the Price

-   Species and growth rate — willow and poplar produce huge volumes of arisings
-   Whether the site is soft riverside ground needing boarding
-   Percentage of crown removed and number of trees in the job
-   Access from the tree to the chipper position
-   TPO or Conservation Area consent in Surbiton, Coombe and Kingston Hill
-   Booking a repeat cycle, which reduces the per-visit price
