The ABC team have done a wonderful job in our garden, tree pruning was done beautifully and very quickly having left the site nice and tidy. I would 100% recommend Rob and his team, they are and absolute pleasure to deal with. Perla Arteaga – October 2021 We have used ABC Tree a few times personally and also for Parish Council works. All the work carried out has been to the highest standard, always leaving the site immaculate after visiting. Communication is good, on when you can expect the work carried out is well in advance and stuck to. Have found prices very reasonable for the services received. Would thoroughly recommend Rob and his team. Patrick Charlton – June 2021 ABC Tree was recommended to me by a friend and I’ve used the company twice this year to prune substantial trees in our central Cambridge garden. I’ll certainly use ABC again and I’d thoroughly recommend Rob. He’s knowledgeable and experienced; dealt efficiently with the Council applications for us (we’re in a Conservation Area) and completed the work to an excellent standard. Philippa L – July 2021 A really excellent job in reducing the crowns on a number of large willow trees and cut down a rotten willow. They took all the branches and very large trunks away leaving it very clear and clean. Thoroughly recommend Rob, he has some great equipment to help. Andrew McWilliam – July 2021

Frequently Asked Questions About Tree Services

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

What are the most common tree problems?

Trees can be affected by a variety of problems:
  • Diseases: Fungal, bacterial, or viral infections that can weaken trees, cause defoliation, or lead to death.
  • Pests: Insects or other animals that can damage leaves, branches, bark, or roots, weakening the tree and making it more susceptible to disease.
  • Environmental Stress: Drought, extreme temperatures, poor soil conditions, or pollution can stress trees, making them more vulnerable to pests and disease.
  • Mechanical Damage: Wounds caused by construction, lawnmowers, or vehicles can create entry points for pests and disease.
  • Structural Defects: Weak branches, cracks, or cavities in the trunk can weaken the tree's structure and make it prone to breakage.
  • Improper Pruning: Incorrect pruning techniques can damage trees, create wounds, and make them more susceptible to disease.
Regular inspections by a qualified arborist can help identify and address tree problems early, preventing further damage and maintaining tree health.

What questions should I ask a tree service company?

Before hiring a tree service company, ask these questions:
  • Experience and qualifications: 'How long have you been in business? Are your arborists certified? What experience do you have with similar projects?'
  • Licensing and insurance: 'Are you licensed and insured? Can you provide proof of insurance?'
  • Safety practices: 'What safety measures do you take to protect your workers and my property during the project?'
  • Cleanup and disposal: 'What will you do with the tree debris after the job? Will you remove the stump and clean up the work area?'
  • References: 'Can you provide references from previous clients?'
  • Written estimates: 'Can you provide a detailed written estimate outlining the scope of work, costs, and timeframe?'
Asking these questions can help you find a reputable company that prioritizes safety, quality, and customer satisfaction.

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.

Why do tree roots grow above ground?

Tree roots growing above ground, also known as surface roots, can be caused by:
  • Shallow Soil: In areas with thin or compacted soil, roots may not be able to penetrate deeply and instead grow near the surface.
  • Soil Compaction: Heavy foot traffic, construction activities, or vehicles can compact the soil, making it difficult for roots to grow downward.
  • Low Oxygen Levels: Roots need oxygen to survive, and in poorly drained or compacted soil, they may grow near the surface to access more oxygen.
  • Seeking Nutrients: Roots may grow towards areas with higher nutrient concentrations, which can be near the surface in some cases.
  • Tree Species: Some tree species are naturally prone to surface roots, such as maples, willows, and poplars.
  • Age: As trees age, their root systems expand, and some roots may naturally grow closer to the surface.
Surface roots can pose tripping hazards, damage sidewalks or driveways, and interfere with mowing. Addressing underlying issues like soil compaction or drainage can help prevent excessive surface root growth.
