Frequently Asked Questions About Tree Services

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

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.

Is it cheaper to cut down a tree yourself?

While it might seem tempting to cut down a tree yourself to save money, it's important to weigh the potential risks and costs involved.
Risks:
  • Safety: Felling a tree is extremely dangerous without proper training and equipment. Falling branches or the entire tree can cause serious injury or even death.
  • Property Damage: If the tree falls in the wrong direction, it could damage your home, vehicles, or other structures on your property.
  • Liability: If you cause damage to your neighbor's property or injure someone while cutting down a tree yourself, you could be held liable.

Costs:
  • Equipment: You'll need to invest in or rent specialized equipment like chainsaws, safety gear, ropes, and potentially a wood chipper.
  • Disposal: You'll be responsible for disposing of the tree debris, which can be time-consuming and expensive, especially for large trees.
  • Repairs: If the tree falls incorrectly and causes damage, you'll have to cover the cost of repairs.

In most cases, the risks and potential costs outweigh any perceived savings from DIY tree removal. Hiring a professional tree service company is the safest and often the most cost-effective option in the long run. They have the experience, equipment, and insurance to handle the job properly and protect you from liability.

How do I know if a tree needs to be removed?

Several signs indicate a tree may need to be removed:
  • Significant damage or decay: If a tree has extensive damage to its trunk, roots, or branches, or shows signs of significant decay, it may be structurally unsound and pose a hazard.
  • Leaning precariously: A tree leaning excessively towards a structure, power lines, or other valuable assets poses a risk of falling and causing damage.
  • Disease or infestation: Trees infected with diseases or infested with pests can weaken and become hazardous. Professional assessment is needed to determine if treatment is possible or if removal is necessary.
  • Root problems: Trees with damaged or compromised root systems can be unstable and pose a risk of falling. Signs include heaving soil, root exposure, or mushrooms growing at the base of the tree.
  • Interfering with structures or utilities: If a tree is growing too close to a building, foundation, power lines, or other utilities, it may need to be removed to prevent damage or interference.
  • Overcrowding or competition: Trees growing too close together can compete for resources, leading to stunted growth or decline. Selective removal may be necessary to improve the health of the remaining trees.
It's always best to consult with a qualified arborist to assess the health and safety of your trees and determine the best course of action.

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.
