Tree thinning is the selective removal of competing, smaller, and poor quality trees. Its main objective is to improve the growth rate and health of the remaining trees for a greatly increased harvest.
When your forest is fully managed for optimal timber production, our professional thinning and tree removal service provides the most efficient and skilled way to increase the quality of tree growth across a range of different sites.
By carrying out all first, second, and third crop thinnings when growth becomes too dense, Repson Timber can remove any smaller, weaker, or competing trees. The right balance can give you a better-performing crop for a greatly improved final harvest. And with remaining trees increasing in volume and quality, the better quality timber will have a larger diameter to secure a higher timber sale income for the landowner.
Our experience in forest thinning means Repson Timber has the right forestry machinery, both manual and mechanical, to effectively manage thinnings of any tree size. Using this equipment to complete harvest thinnings and forward thinnings ensures minimal damage to standing trees or roots and reduces any environmental impact.
As a fully independent company, Repson Timber has no obligation to any sawmills, contractors, or hauliers. That means we work with you as a local landowner directly, acting on your behalf to prioritise local timber sales on your behalf, quickly and efficiently – with no third parties or middlemen.
