# Crown Reduction in Richmond & Twickenham

Crown reduction in Richmond and Twickenham typically costs £400 to £1,200, and consent from Richmond upon Thames Council is required for almost every tree in the borough. Reduction is the work the council is most likely to approve, because it retains the canopy while resolving the light, weight or clearance problem you actually have.

-   Covering TW1, TW2, TW9 and TW10
-   Written cutting specifications prepared for Richmond upon Thames applications
-   Veteran and heritage tree experience — plane, cedar, lime and chestnut
-   NPTC qualified climbers, £10M public liability, certificates on request

## Crown Reductions in Richmond & Twickenham 

Richmond upon Thames protects more trees than any other borough on our patch, and its tree officers assess applications closely. A vague request to “cut the tree back” gets refused; a specification stating a 2-metre height reduction and 1.5-metre lateral reduction to suitable growth points, retaining natural form, gets approved. We write the specification as part of every Richmond quote.

The tree stock here is heavy and old — London plane, lime, cedar and horse chestnut, much of it planted in the nineteenth century and much of it adjacent to listed buildings. On these specimens we work conservatively: no more than 20 per cent in a single operation on a veteran tree, cuts kept small, and a return visit scheduled rather than one aggressive intervention.

Practicalities matter here as much as arboriculture. Narrow riverside streets in St Margarets and Twickenham often need a parking suspension for the chipper, and access to rear gardens is frequently through the house. We survey all of this before quoting so the written price is the price you pay.
