Tree Works
We are speacilists in all types of tree works, whether you require a single tree to be removed or the complete clearing of a site from vegetation and trees no job is too big, small or difficult for us. See below for a full list of the services we offer and if you are unsure on anything feel free to contact us.
A crown reduction (usually expressed in percentage terms) is a decrease in the extent of the crown spread. Carried out sensitively to retain an attractive shape.
Re-shaping
Pruning a tree or shrub sympathetically to re-establis h an aesthetically pleasing shape. Usually necessary when a tree has not been maintained for some time or has been pruned incorrectly in the past.
Tree Removal
In our working environments this is normally done by dismantling a section at a time. Trees are taken down as near as possible to ground level or alternatively, may be left as a high stump for the benefit of wildlife.
Crown Cleaning
Removing dead or defective branches, or branches that have grown across one another. This is usually necessary for safety reasons.
Deadwooding
The removal for safety reasons of any dead wood from the tree’s crown. Deadwood can soon be dislodged in the wind and can cause damage or injury.
Crown Thining
Removing branches from the crown of a tree without reducing the height or the spread. This prevents the tree from becoming too dense, stops the tree from casting too much shade.
Crown lifting
The removal of lower branches to allow room beneath the tree for passing vehicles, mowing, pedestrians etc.
Woodchipping
We process the small and large wood tree waste through a 14" wood chipper. The wood chips are directed straight into our vehicle where we take it away.
Pollarding
This is a tree surgery technique for controlling a tree’s size. It involves the removal of branches at a given height. The tree is unsightly until foliage regrows from the branch stubs. The sprouting foliage develops into a new dense, but weaker branch system. Pollarding must be carried out regularly for safety reasons and to maintain the tree to the desired size.
Stump Grinding
Mechanically removing a tree stump so that the ground can be re-used. This involves the use of a stump grinder, a portable power tool (it can be of various sizes), chips away at the wood to 30-45cm below ground level, using a rotating cutting disk.
Grubbing Out
Digging out woody vegetation without the use of machine. Normally done for small tasks or when lack of space prevents the use of a stump grinder.
Site Clearance
Completely removing all woody vegetation from a plot of land.
Hedge Cutting
Trimming off and removing new growth from the hedges, also reducing hedges by any height using petrol hedge trimmers ,and chainsaws leaving a neat and tidy hedge.
