Frequently Asked Questions About Tree Services

Find answers to common questions about tree care and hiring professional tree service companies in UK.

How close to a house can you plant a tree?

The recommended distance for planting a tree from a house depends on the tree's mature size and root system. As a general rule, plant trees at least:
  • 10 feet away from foundations for small trees (mature height under 30 feet).
  • 20 feet away from foundations for medium-sized trees (mature height 30-70 feet).
  • 30 feet or more away from foundations for large trees (mature height over 70 feet).
Planting too close can lead to root damage to foundations, sidewalks, or underground utilities. It's always a good idea to research the mature size and root system of the specific tree species you're considering and consult with a certified arborist for guidance on proper placement.

How do I know if my tree is diseased?

Look for these signs of tree disease:
  • Leaf discoloration or spots: Yellowing, browning, or spotting on leaves can indicate fungal infections, nutrient deficiencies, or other problems.
  • Premature leaf drop: Losing leaves earlier than usual or outside of the normal seasonal cycle can be a sign of stress or disease.
  • Dieback of branches: Branches dying from the tips inward can indicate disease, insect infestation, or drought stress.
  • Cankers or lesions: Sunken or discolored areas on the bark can indicate fungal or bacterial infections.
  • Mushrooms or conks growing on the trunk or roots: These are often signs of decay fungi.
  • Wilting or drooping leaves: Can indicate a lack of water, root damage, or vascular disease.
If you notice any of these signs, it's best to contact a certified arborist for a professional diagnosis and treatment recommendations.

Do I need a permit to remove a tree in UK?

Whether or not you need a permit to remove a tree in UK depends on local regulations. In some areas, permits are required for removing trees of a certain size or those located within protected areas.
It's essential to check with your local council or municipality for specific tree removal regulations. Reputable tree service companies are typically familiar with local regulations and can help you determine if a permit is needed.

What is the difference between tree trimming and tree pruning?

While the terms 'tree trimming' and 'tree pruning' are often used interchangeably, there is a subtle difference:
Tree Trimming: Primarily focuses on improving a tree's appearance. It involves selectively removing branches to shape the tree, remove dead or diseased branches, and improve clearance for structures or utilities.
Tree Pruning: Focuses on maintaining or improving the tree's health and structure. It involves removing dead, diseased, or damaged branches to prevent the spread of disease, encourage new growth, and improve the tree's overall vigor.
In practice, trimming and pruning often overlap, and a skilled arborist will usually combine both techniques to achieve the desired results for your trees.
