Tree Services
Our team bring more than 20 years of experience and knowledge to your problems, providing examination, diagnosis and advice prior to any work.
Disease and Prevention
Ash Dieback (Hymenoscyphus fraxineus)
A disease that affects the majority of Ash trees across Europe and beyond. Our trained arborists examine Ash trees all year round and consider their health and safety status.
We can create maintenance plans and where and when appropriate, advise on removal requirements if needed.
Dead Wood Removal
Dead wood removal targets the elimination of dead or diseased branches to enhance overall tree health and safety.
We carefully assess and remove dead wood to improve structural integrity, contributing to a cleaner appearance. Our precision and expertise ensure the tree's vitality and natural form are preserved.
Tree Maintenance
End Weight Removal
End weight removal is an arboricultural technique that selectively prunes outer branches to reduce overall weight, aiming to balance the tree's mass and prevent breakage during storms.
We target outer limbs, for improved structural integrity and longevity, requiring expertise for correct execution.
Pruning for Safety
Pruning trees away from buildings and cables is essential for safety. We trim branches to prevent potential damage during storms and reduce the risk of property damage or power and utility outages.
Maintaining a safe clearance contributes to the longevity of trees and structures, fostering a harmonious coexistence in any landscape.
Crown Reduction
Crown reduction shortens outer limbs to decrease a tree's size while maintaining structure.
This addresses shading and hazards, promoting balance and aesthetics. Suitable reduction enhances light penetration, reduces wind resistance, and in some cases supports overall tree health in urban forestry.
Crown Thinning
Crown thinning can sometimes improve tree health by selectively removing branches for better air circulation and sunlight penetration. This reduces crown density, minimising storm-related risks and promoting a balanced structure.
We use precision cutting to maintain the tree's natural form and aesthetics, with increased light exposure to lower branches.
Crown Lifting
Crown lifting raises lower branches to increase ground clearance, enhance visibility, create space, and allow more light. We do this to improve access and prevent obstructions, contributing to a tidier landscape and redirecting energy for overall tree health.
Our expertise ensures proper execution to maintain the tree's structural integrity.
Elevated Work
Tree surgery in elevated locations, like cliff faces and embankments, requires specialised skills and equipment to navigate safely.
We use rope access techniques and climbing expertise, employing harnesses and rigging systems for tasks such as pruning or removals with a focus on safety and preventing hazards in these challenging environments.
Removal and Safety
Safe Dismantling
Safe tree dismantling involves carefully disassembling a tree in sections, strategically removing branches and using specialised equipment to lower sections safely.
This prevents potential damage in urban areas with space constraints or in a confined space, requiring expertise for the safety of our arborists and the environment.
Dangerous Trees
Removal of dangerous trees is a specialised practice focused on eliminating safety threats. We assess the tree's health, shape, and proximity to structures or utility lines to identify risks.
Through precise techniques like directional felling or dismantling, dangerous trees are safely removed in sections, minimising impact and ensuring the safety of both arborists and property.
Storm-damaged Trees
Providing urgent assistance to swiftly address storm-damaged trees. We assess the damage and use specialised techniques such as felling, sectional dismantling or crane-assisted removal for a rapid and safe response.
The primary goal is to safely clear fallen or compromised trees, ensuring the immediate safety of people and property.
