Services

Crown Reduction and Shaping


This is often carried out when a tree has grown such that it encroaching in

space it shouldn't be. For example; if a tree was located near

telecommunications wires and its branches were in danger of touching

them, then the upper branches of the tree would be reduced to a more

acceptable height and re-shaped in keeping with the look of the tree.


Crown Reduction and Shaping can also be undertaken to minimise stress

that may occurring and will reduce a trees water uptake and wind

resistance.


Crown Lifting and Thinning


Crown lifting tends to be required when the lower branches and limbs of a

tree are obstructing an area below where they overhang, for example a

public footpath or highway. This will allow for the safe passage of vehicles

and pedestrians alike beneath the tree.


The resulting work will ''lift'' the overall height of the crown of the tree and

when crown thinning is undertaken (the selective removal of branches and

stems) it will allow for better circulation of light and air through the tree

which in turn creates a better structure and can make life difficult for tree

pests.


Felling (Sectional Dismantling


There are numerous reasons for felling a tree. If it has become infected it

would be required in order to conserve others around it that remain

healthy, if a tree has become weak and may be a danger to property or

people or if it is in an unsuitable area that affects construction plans.


In most areas so as to ensure the safety of all involved, a qualifled

professional will climb the tree and with control will ''dismantle'' it from the

top a section at a time safely.



Dead Wooding


Over the years, it will be natural for some branches and limbs of a tree to

die. They will no longer produce leaves, fruit or flower and it is important to

remove this dead wood in order for the remaining parts of the tree to

continue to flourish successfully.


Pollarding


In some circumstances, it is necessary to ensure that a tree maintains a

certain height. The practice of pollarding, involves the removal of all the

upper branches of a tree with the resulting effect being that a dense head

of branches and foliage is created.


Trees that have undergone polarding tendto live longer as by removing

the crown on regular intervals they are kept in a juvenile state as they do

not experience having significant weighi in their top half.


Hedge and Shrub Trimming


This is usually carried out to maintain their ''neatness'' not only to conform

to a ''nice look'' as trimming will promote a bushy growth but in some

circumstances to help toward health and safety especially if a hedge

borders aroad or footpath.


Some species will not flower or produce fruit for a number of years after

having experienced a hard trim and those that have been kept to the

same height for numof years will produca a ''hard knuckle'' at that

height with the result being that it will behave like a tree that has

undergone pollarding.


Pruning


Infected, dead and even healthy branches are removed in order to

maintain the health and structure of atree. They are also removed if the

environment and those using it around themcould be put in any danger.

Pruning when required will encourage a tree to develop a sound structure

which will help prevent damage during severe weather conditions.


Stump Grinding


Once a tree has been felled it is often the case that the resulting stump

can be treated such that re-growth can be prevented. However; in some

circumstances it may be necessary for the stump to be completely

removed, for example if it is obstructing a site where a new structure is to

be erected like a garage, gardenshed, conservatory etc...



In order to achieve this, a stump grinding machine is used to do as its

name suggests, grind the stump untit all of it including the root system of

the tree is destroyed.
