Yes, we require parking space for our truck and chipper to carry out tree work efficiently. Please ensure there is sufficient access and space for our equipment on the day of the job. If parking is limited or requires permits, let us know in advance so we can plan accordingly. 🚛🌳

No, we do not charge a viewing fee. We offer free viewings and consultations to assess your tree care needs and provide expert advice. 🌿✨ Let us know if you’d like to schedule a visit! 😊

Yes, we can assist with TPO (Tree Protection Order) applications. Our fee is £80 + VAT per tree, with discounts available for multiple applications. If you need help with the process, feel free to contact us, and we’ll guide you through the necessary steps to ensure compliance with local regulations. 🌳📄

The spread of tree roots depends on the species, soil conditions, and available space, but in general: 🌳 Most tree roots spread 2-3 times the width of the tree canopy. 📏 Lateral roots can extend up to 3-5 times the tree’s height. 📉 80-90% of roots are in the top 60cm (2ft) of soil.

To avoid stressing or damaging a tree, follow these general pruning guidelines: Mature trees: Remove no more than 10-15% of the canopy per year. Younger trees: Can tolerate up to 25-30% in some cases for shaping. General rule: Avoid removing more than 25% of the tree’s canopy in a single year. Key Tips: ✅ Spread major pruning over multiple years to prevent stress. ✅ Avoid excessive lower branch removal, which can weaken the tree. ✅ Never "top" a tree, as this leads to weak regrowth and potential decay. Best Time to Prune: Winter (Dormant Season): Best for most trees, allowing proper healing. Spring/Summer: Light pruning only (deadwood removal, minor shaping). Late Summer/Early Autumn: Suitable for some species but avoid heavy cuts. For specific tree species, pruning needs may vary. If unsure, consult a professional arborist. 🌿✂️

Benefits of Pollarding: ✅ Encourages new growth – Helps maintain a manageable size and dense foliage. ✅ Reduces risk of branch failure – Good for urban trees near roads or buildings. ✅ Extends lifespan – Some trees respond well and live longer with regular pollarding. Risks of Pollarding: ⚠️ Not suitable for all trees – Some species do not tolerate it and may decline. ⚠️ Creates weak regrowth – New shoots can be weakly attached and prone to breaking. ⚠️ Stressful for mature trees – If started too late, it can shock or even kill the tree. Best Practices for Healthy Pollarding: Only pollard young trees (starting early allows them to adapt). Choose suitable species (e.g., willow, plane, lime, poplar). Pollard regularly (every 1-3 years) to prevent large wounds. Avoid pollarding mature trees that haven’t been previously managed this way. If unsure, consult an arborist to determine whether pollarding is right for your tree. 🌳✂️
