Professional Pollarding Services in Rathmines for Long-Term Tree Management
Pollarding is a specialised pruning technique used to control the size, shape, and growth of certain trees, particularly in urban environments. By regularly cutting back the upper branches, pollarding encourages dense regrowth while keeping the tree compact and manageable. It’s ideal for maintaining trees in tight spaces or preventing them from interfering with buildings, roads, or power lines.
In Rathmines, pollarding is particularly useful for managing street trees, garden trees, and those in commercial spaces where size control is essential. Without regular pollarding, some trees can quickly become oversized, leading to safety concerns, blocked light, or damage to nearby structures. However, if done incorrectly, pollarding can stress the tree or cause long-term harm.
