Planning a route

What I can do for you

Pruning

• Crown Reductions - bringing the height and spread of a tree down to reduce it's overall size
• Crown Lifts - removing lowest branches of a tree
• Pollards - removing all green growth from a tree to leave only skeletal structure
• Deadwood - removing all dead, diseased or dangerous branches from a tree

Removal

• Felling - where space allows, cutting a tree from the base and allowing it to fall
• Dismantling - climbing a tree and taking it apart, lowering with ropes as necessary

Waste

• Disposal- legal removal of all waste material to waste processing centre. Materials are chipped and used for compost and as fuel for power stations
• Logs - these can be removed as above or cut into suitable lengths for chopping into firewood to save clients costs
• Onsite re-use - for some clients it can be beneficial to stack arisings (pruned material) as habitat piles, or to chip materials onsite for mulch

Advice

• Dangerous trees - advice on necessary pruning or removal of any diseased or dying tree
• Tree preservation orders (TPO) - dealing with the local council as your professional advisor
• Disputes - general advice on light issues, high hedges and encroaching branches from neighbouring properties
