  • Tree Trunk Tables
    Fleet, GB

    I live local and I love local and so I decided to help others do the same. Finding unique handmade gifts for people (and sometimes for myself!) is a little obsession of mine. I’ve always tried to find these nearby, so that I can support local artisans and also to avoid the use of big, environmentally unfriendly courier companies and expensive delivery costs. Being able to collect something the same day or next day from a local crafts person is also very handy when you suddenly need a last minute gift (I speak from many an experience!). Plus the gifts are so much lovelier when you know who made them. However I have often found it difficult to locate local sellers and actually discover what amazing creativity and talents we have right here on our doorstep. So I created Anytime Artisan. We are here to celebrate local makers and craftspeople. All in one place,  all year round, any day, any time at our virtual artisan market. To increase the sales opportunities, sellers can showcase their handmade products to local customers on our website 24/7, in addition to attending local craft markets! Please support the lovely businesses we have right here in our community, whenever you can. Anytime Artisan would like all our friends and neighbours to Live Local. Love Local

Frequently Asked Questions About Tree Services

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

How do I know if a tree is dying?

A dying tree can exhibit several signs, but it's essential to remember that some signs may also indicate stress or other problems that are treatable. Here are some common indicators of a dying tree:
  • Extensive dieback: Large portions of the tree's crown are dead, with no signs of new growth.
  • Severe bark damage: Large sections of bark are missing or severely damaged, exposing the inner wood.
  • Root decay: Mushrooms or conks growing at the base of the tree, indicating fungal decay in the root system.
  • Leaning precariously: The tree is leaning significantly and showing signs of instability.
  • No leaves or buds: During the growing season, the tree is completely bare of leaves and shows no signs of new buds forming.
  • Woodpecker holes: While a few woodpecker holes are not necessarily a cause for concern, numerous holes can indicate insect infestation or decay within the tree.
It's essential to consult with a certified arborist to confirm whether a tree is dying or can be saved. They can assess the tree's condition, identify the cause of the decline, and recommend the best course of action.

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.

Do tree roots grow towards water?

While tree roots do grow towards moisture, it's not a simple case of them actively seeking out water sources. Roots grow in all directions, but they grow more rapidly and extensively in areas where they encounter favorable conditions, including moisture.
Roots have specialized cells called 'root hairs' that absorb water and nutrients from the soil. These root hairs are more abundant in moist soil, so roots naturally extend more in those areas. However, roots also need oxygen to survive, so they will not grow into waterlogged soil. The direction of root growth is influenced by a combination of factors, including moisture, oxygen availability, soil nutrients, and the tree's overall health.

Is it OK to cut tree roots?

Cutting tree roots can be necessary in some situations, but it should always be done with caution and preferably under the guidance of a certified arborist.
**When it's OK to cut roots:**
  • Small roots: Cutting small, superficial roots during landscaping or gardening is usually not a significant problem for the tree.
  • Encroaching roots: Roots growing into sidewalks, driveways, or foundations may need to be cut back. However, it's essential to do this carefully to avoid damaging the tree's structural integrity.
  • Root pruning for transplanting: Before transplanting a tree, root pruning is done to encourage new root growth within a smaller area, making the transplanting process more successful.

**Risks of cutting tree roots:**
  • Tree instability: Cutting large structural roots can weaken the tree's support system, making it more susceptible to windthrow or breakage.
  • Disease entry: Cuts create wounds that can serve as entry points for disease-causing organisms.
  • Reduced nutrient and water uptake: Cutting roots can limit the tree's ability to absorb water and nutrients from the soil.
Before cutting any significant tree roots, consult with a certified arborist to assess the situation, determine the best course of action, and minimize the risk of damage to the tree.
