Services

So, you want some work on your trees. What next?

After arranging a convenient time for you, we will carry out a site visit assessing your trees. We discuss your requirements and offer our recommendation for work required. Then a free, no obligation written quote clearly listing work and cost will be sent to you. Once our quote has been accepted we will schedule work to begin on a date that is convenient for you, we are very flexible and can work weekends at no extra cost if required.

On completion of the work, the site will be left clean, tidy and safe. What could be easier?

Below are the types of work we carry out, a brief description and the services we can offer. Be very wary of any tree contractor or consultant using words such as "lop", "top" or "crowning" to name but three. For the sake of your trees use a reputable firm. Using cowboys will only cost you more money in the long run.

  • Crown Reduction / Crown Re-profile
    Conserving a tree that may be outgrowing a confined space. Carefully reducing its size helps to reduce the sail area of the crown decreasing the risk of limb failure in strong winds.
  • Crown Clean / Remedial Prune
    Removing dead, diseased or dying wood, damaged branches, crowded, crossing or rubbing branches.
  • Crown Thin
    Removing smaller secondary branches throughout the crown to create a balanced framework. This will improve light penetration, in turn helping to reduce the sail area of the crown decreasing the risk of limb failure in strong winds.
  • Crown Lift
    Removing lower limbs to allow clearance, for example trees over roads or footpaths.
  • Pollarding
    Removing main limbs to suitable growth points. New growth is produced from these points and is usually then cut back to these points in the future. Pollarding is not always a suitable option, species such as Beech do not respond very well, but Willow, Lime and Poplar do.
  • Dismantling / Felling
    Safely felling or removing in sections (dismantling) a tree that has become hazardous to the public, property, or an obstruction.
  • Stump grinding / Removal
    Grinding the stump using specialised machinery removing stump and roots allowing use of the ground again.
  • Hedge Trimming / Reducing
    Reducing hedges in height such as Conifers and trimming the top and sides to produce a nice neat box shape.
  • Mobile log splitting service
    So we have felled your tree, cut the timber into manageable sections, left it stacked neatly on site for you, when the time comes you will split it as you have a log burner and want to utilise the wood, no problems! After splitting a few pieces of wood by hand you are starting to think this isn't such a great idea. Fear not, help is at hand! We can now offer a log splitting service on an hourly, daily or weekly basis. We don't even have to split all of it, just the horrible knotty stuff if you like. Just contact us for a quote.
  • Woodchip Mulch
    We can also supply and deliver woodchip mulch for your garden. Great for keeping those weeds and brambles away.
