Sometimes pruning a tree is the best option and is the most skilled part of our profession. With an abundance of bad tree workers out there, we often come across poorly pruned trees where the surgeons have cut the trees in a way that is damaging or potentially life-threatening to the tree. At Enigma we are highly skilled and take our time when pruning trees. We understand that different species of trees can require different types of pruning methods. We can advise the safest and best option and are able to complete work to British standards and apply for and follow TPO applications with precision and professionalism. We are able to safely prune or remove your tree even if it is leaning over property or boundaries with neighbours.

Crown lifting is the process of removing the lower branches of the tree to move the overall canopy upwards, this is usually done to clear paths or increase light.

Crown thinning is the process of removing selected branches from the internal canopy to allow more light to penetrate through. This can make a tree safer by lessening the wind sail effect of the canopy and reducing weight. This method can also be used to promote the growth in a more aesthetically pleasing manner.

When doing a full crown reduction our experts will climb around the entire canopy reducing each branch and creating a new shape to the tree. We take great pride in leaving trees looking like natural trees and pruning them in ways that promote growth in the right places.

Pollarding is the process of removing all of the main canopy and leaving the stem with small limbs to regrow from. This method is used to greatly reduce the size and weight of a tree massively reducing the chances of them falling. It's often done when trees pose a considerable threat or have grown far too big for their location.

If you have an encroaching tree we are able to climb and prune trees away from property and phone lines safely.

Whether your hedge simply needs trimming or reducing substantially we take great pride in doing it right. Our trained climbers can climb horizontally through hedges of any size using a chainsaw to reduce any timber parts flat and then using hedge trimmers to complete it with expert precision. We always trim the sides to ensure it is left looking as neat as possible

Some people prefer to use tree surgeons to maintain their garden shrubs. We work all types of trees and shrubs.

Stump removal is usually conducted with a stump grinding machine which uses a flywheel and teeth to grind the stump down in the ground turning it to dust. Our staff have specialist training on using these machines.

We are trained and prepared to take on emergency tree operations, call outs where trees have fallen in awkward places i.e. onto property, roads or other trees perhaps following a storm. Though this can often be a scary situation, do not panic! We can resolve this for you to remove any dangerous trees or hanging branches safely.
