Tree pruning in Christchurch, in short

Clearcut prunes trees across Christchurch and the BH23 postcode, including Highcliffe, Mudeford, Burton, Walkford and Bransgore. Our NPTC qualified climbers reduce, thin and lift crowns and remove dead wood to British Standard BS3998, so trees stay healthy and in proportion. Christchurch is part of BCP Council, and we check for TPOs and conservation areas and make any application.

Pruning trees around Christchurch

Between two rivers and the harbour, Christchurch trees face wind off the sea and wet ground by the water.

Mature oaks, pines and holm oaks in Highcliffe, Mudeford and Friars Cliff take the brunt of the Channel gales. A careful reduction or thinning takes weight and wind off the crown without spoiling the tree.

Along the Stour and the Avon, willows and alders grow fast and heavy. They respond well to regular reduction or pollarding.

In the historic town centre and around the Priory, many trees are in a conservation area. We give BCP Council six weeks' notice before work, or apply for TPO consent where needed.

Great service and price. Will certainly use Clearcut for my logs in future. Thank you Max for your communication and courteous service, so sadly lacking in these dreadful times!

Max came out on a very wet day and within 2 hours of initially calling him. Gave his expert advice and opinion, and although couldn’t do the job, due to the tree being on council highway, Max gave me the contact of the councils approved contractor to carry out a pollard. I wouldn’t hesitate in using Max for any future work at my property.
