Tree Surgery

We are tree surgeons and arborists that provide a range of services including tree surgery and felling, stump removal and grinding, milling, dismantling, crown reduction, and lifting.
Trees are an integral part of our natural environment and something that many people take for granted. When trees start to fall into disrepair, it is important to have them professionally assessed and treated as soon as possible. We offer a professional tree surgery service in Nottinghamshire which includes cutting back overgrown trees, removing dead or diseased branches from live trees, pruning out damaged stems or roots, and ensuring the safety of your property with arboricultural advice. Whether you have a single tree that needs some love or wants to do a mass clearance of your whole garden, we can help!

Tree surgery is the branch of arboriculture that deals with tree assessment and treatment. This includes any work to improve, maintain or repair a tree’s form, function, and health.

Benefits of Tree Surgery

Trees can develop problems for many reasons, such as trunk decay in older trees; structural failure if branches are too heavy; insect or fungal attack on leaves (leaf scorch) which may cause them to drop prematurely, depriving the crown of nutrients and leading to death in long-term cases; storm damage causing dead limbs to fall on roofs, etc.; roots undermining structures like walls or foundations (this causes costly repairs over time). We will assess your needs before getting started, so they know just what action is required.
As a result, the benefits of tree surgery are as follows:

– structural safety of the tree and its surroundings;

– protection from storm damage;

– aesthetic benefits in terms of preserving the natural beauty that is so often lost when a tree dies or sheds all its leaves. we can provide:

• tree surgery for decay, rot, fungi, and insect attack on leaves. we will eliminate dead branches, lift crowns to increase air circulation around foliage (thus reducing moisture), reduce large limbs which are prone to breaking off under their own weight, etc.;

• reduction of dangerous trees, such as those close to buildings, power lines, etc.;

• advice on caring for your tree-how much water it needs over the summer months without worrying about root rot due to too much water, how to protect the tree from deer and other animals, etc.

Steps Involved in Tree Surgery

– We will come and remove the tree from your garden or site;

– we will then take it to a woodturning facility where they chop up the trunk into small sections of various sizes;

After that, we will either store the tree for a year before using it as firewood, or we will sell sections to customers who are looking for natural wood floors, furniture, etc.

Tools We Use For Tree Surgery

At our company, we use the following tools for tree surgery:

We will use a chainsaw to cut up the tree trunk into sections for turning, or we might even leave it onsite with you and let them take care of removing what remains.

We climb this high, using ropes attached at one end to a point above their heads and the other to we’ feet, to work on high branches.

We will use this tool for leverage when pushing and pulling tree limbs off of buildings, or we may need it if we are trying to get a big branch out from underneath something (or someone).

Our most used equipment is their rope ladders, which we attach securely at one end to our head and drop down as needed with the other end attached below our foot. It allows us to reach any height that you might need for your project.

Safety gear

Safety gear, including safety goggles, gloves, earplugs, etc. We always wear these while working near power lines or we may be working at our head height.

Pole saws

We use pole saws to cut up tree limbs into smaller pieces when we have them on the ground and will need our space for other work or if we are cutting from a high limb that we cannot reach.

Crosscut saws

We use crosscut saws to cut trees into smaller pieces when we have them on the ground and will need the space for other work.

Jacks

Our Jacks are used in a variety of ways, but most importantly, they can be used to raise or lower our workers while working so that we do not risk injuring ourselves by climbing ladders.

Wire mesh

We use wire mesh to protect our workers from falling branches as well.

Cordless Saw

This is one of our tools that can be used for cutting up smaller limbs and debris when we are high in the tree or on a ladder, but it is not strong enough to cut through large pieces of wood.

Frequently Asked Questions

These are some of the questions our clients may ask.
t

What is a Tree Preservation Order?

A tree preservation order is a legal restriction that protects trees and stipulates how they can be treated. A tree preservation order might limit the type of work you can do to your tree, so it’s always worth checking before carrying out any tree surgery.
t

How do I find a good tree surgeon?

Tree surgeons are in the business of tree surgery, so they should have a track record of doing good work. However, if you are confused about who to choose, then our advice is to find tree surgeons who are members of the Association for Specialist Arboriculture (ASA).
t

What is a conservation area?

A Conservation Area was designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) or National Nature Reserve (NNR), with special environmental protection measures for trees and wildlife

Some parts of Nottingham are also protected by tree preservation orders which limit what you can do to them. So, if your tree needs pruning, then contact us first to find out whether this will affect any other restrictions on its growth.

t

Can I do my tree surgery myself?

We can’t recommend this even if you have experience of cutting trees down and removing them from gardens;
– often people get themselves into trouble by not being aware of all the pitfalls that await once they start chopping up trees with chainsaws – such as branches falling off onto neighbouring houses and other dangers lurking on site. We offer free advice sessions about how best to protect oneself against these hazards including what equipment is needed when undertaking work like this
t

What about the rubbish that is left over?

All tree surgery involves the removal of some branches, which will be left on site. We can also remove tree stumps and other tree waste for a small charge
t

What is the best time of year for tree work to be carried out?

You must get professional advice before doing any tree work in winter, as it could affect your property insurance or damage your home. The end of spring might also be too early if there are still leaves on trees.
t

I want to prune a tree, but I live in a conservation area. What should I do?

If you live within an area that has been designated as Conservation Area by the local council, then it is important that tree work carried out does not involve any tree topping or reduction in the canopy – and this includes crown reductions such as stubbing back branches to their original height
