Why Topping is Harmful - And What to Do Instead

Tree topping (also called hat-racking or stubbing) is one of the most damaging things you can do to a tree, yet it is still frequently requested. It involves cutting back large branches to stumps, drastically reducing the tree's crown.

Problems With Topping:

Starvation: Removing the leaf canopy starves the tree of the energy it needs to survive, triggering dieback.
Decay: Blunt cuts cannot properly compartmentalize (seal). Fungi and bacteria enter the wounds, rotting the tree from the inside.
Weak Structure: The rapid regrowth (water sprouts) that follows is weakly attached and prone to breaking off in strong winds.

Instead of topping, we use techniques like crown reduction and selective thinning, making precise cuts at the branch collar to promote healthy, strong growth.
