The tree surgeons with whom we work are professionals in the precise dismantling of dangerous, large and complicated trees within restricted areas. They are experienced in removing trees from difficult locations and can manoeuvre through tight spaces.

A variety of tree removal methods maybe used including directional felling, sectional dismantling, the use of cranes or specialist winch operations. It all depends on the available space as to which method they will use.

Tree Felling

This is where the tree is cut from the base and then it falls to the ground in a controlled fashion. This technique is only used when the risk that the tree could cause injury to anyone or damage property is very low. But, large trees may not be able to be felled in this way due to the amount of space required to fell a tree.

Tree Dismantling

It can be used when there isn’t enough space to simply fell the tree. The entire process must be carefully guided to avoid any injury to people or damage to property. It takes skill to remove trees in sections. Starting at the top, the tree must be cut into manageable sections. Next, the tree must be safely and securely lowered to earth using lowering ropes, slings, or in certain cases a crane.

The tree surgeons that we work with have the ability to navigate through tight spaces and can safely remove trees from your garden using the most recent rigging techniques.

To prevent the the tree falling in the wrong direction, they always use ropes and slings. They may also use wedges to stop it from going the other way.

It is not easy to take out the old stump of a tree that was cut down as part of a landscaping project but not removed.

You should not attempt to remove old stumps from your property without consulting a professional tree surgeon. They will have all the tools necessary to make it a simple and straightforward task.

Stump removal is the process of removing the old stump from a tree to a specific depth. Usually, this is between 150mm to 300mm. Also, any lateral roots attached to the tree are removed at the same time.

Specialist stump grinding equipment is used to remove the stump and leave the surrounding area unaffected. A stump grinder is a machine that has carbine-tipped teeth attached to it. The teeth are attached at various angles and in a sequence around the wheel.

The stump will be removed and the hole left behind will be filled with soil or other grinding waste.

Tree Protection Orders (TPO's) & Tree Conservation Orders

Around the UK a number of trees are protected. Trees with a trunk size larger than 75mm at a trunk height of 1.5 metres are usually contained inside the complete conservation area cover. Trees will need to be reviewed to see if they’re subject to a Tree Preservation Order (TPO) or if they lie inside of a Conservation Area by speaking with your local area authority prior to arranging any sort of project. Our team can assist with the inspections and requests for work.

Crown Reshaping And Reduction

Is a treatment that results in an overall cutback in the spread and/or height of the crown of the tree through an overall trimming of branches and/or twigs, while maintaining the fundamental structure of your tree’s crown.
