Tree Surgeon Jargon Buster

For those who are not familiar with tree surgery terminology, we have provided a brief explanation of some common terms. Felling is the complete removal of a tree, while section felling involves removing the tree in manageable sections. Crown reduction is used to alter the shape of the tree, and crown lift removes lower branches to increase space. Thinning involves removing trees to allow others to thrive, and stump grinding removes the stump and roots after felling.
