  • T Wells Tree Surgeons
    1
    March, GB

    T Wells Tree Surgeons have been undertaking tree works for many years, and have come across and dealt with many scenarios. Our comprehensive services cover a whole range of tasks related to tree care, including tree felling, crowning, trimming, hedge cutting and stump grinding. Our staff are well trained and know how to handle any situation promptly and deliver a high-quality of workmanship. We invest a lot of effort in making sure that trees are not harmed during any course of action we take. Our safe methods of tree trimming allow them to grow well, and also help them to remain strong and healthy throughout their life cycle. We can deal with anything related to trees, including deadwood removal, cutting back overgrown trees which are near power lines, and also ensuring there are no potentially dangerous branches near roads, buildings, or public areas. Root irrigation is also essential, and we can help ensure that they are also well maintained. When hiring an arborist it is vital to make sure that they have the experience to take care of your needs correctly. At T Wells Tree Surgeons we carry out the whole package. For trees to grow healthy, strong, and not have limited growth, they need space around them. Ensuring that your trees are kept well maintained and checked regularly for any issues will mean that they remain in fine condition and not become a tangled mess, potentially leading to larger issues. At T Wells tree surgeons, one of the most common services that we offer is pruning for both our residential and commercial customers. Pruning helps to redirect growth away from the tree canopy. This has a few advantages. As well as making the tree look aesthetically pleasing; it also means that the weight is reduced, which otherwise could lead to branches snapping and, in severe cases, the tree being uprooted. Pruning certainly helps with maintaining healthy growth too. Pruning is a service that we are highly skilled in, and you can be sure your trees will be left in first class order.

We only use electric and hand tools where possible, avoiding the use of noisy and polluting 2 stroke engine chainsaws. From our experience we find that in most jobs we are able to use cordless electric saws and usually only with large tree removals do we need to use petrol chainsaws. we aim to be totally zero carbon and zero emissions within one to two years as we invest in electric vehicles and more powerful electric chainsaws for cutting large trees as soon as they become available.If you have no side access to your rear garden and we need to come through the house, we are able to use a small portable woodchipper to chip all the brash in the garden so it doesn’t have to come through the house. Our clients have found that this is very convenient and avoids lots of mess and possible marks left on walls. Although we are able to remove the wood chip, as it is usually in small enough quantities, most of our clients have been able to utilise the wood chips as flower bed mulch or paving for example. Ecoarbor is an expanding and friendly business with over 20 years experience in arboriculture. We are fully insured, NPTC qualified and work to the British Standard 3998: 2010. We provide free quotations and plans.

  • The Cheshire Tree Company
    5
    Chester, GB

    Here at The Cheshire Tree Company, we offer a range of services from small hedge trimming to total tree removals. Tree surgery, also known as arboriculture, is the practice of caring for and maintaining trees. It involves a range of services, such as tree pruning, tree removal, and stump grinding, as well as planting and fertilization. We use specialized equipment and techniques to ensure that trees are healthy, safe, and aesthetically pleasing. Proper tree care is essential for the health of the tree, as well as the safety of people and property in the surrounding area. Hedge cutting is the process of trimming hedges to maintain their shape and size. It is typically done for aesthetic purposes, to keep hedges looking neat and tidy, but can also be done to promote healthy growth and to prevent overgrowth. Hedge cutting requires skill and expertise to achieve the desired results. Proper hedge cutting can improve the health and appearance of hedges, as well as promote privacy and security in outdoor spaces.

Frequently Asked Questions About Tree Services

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

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 much does tree service cost in UK?

Tree service costs in UK can vary widely depending on several factors, including:
  • Type of service: Tree removal is typically more expensive than trimming or pruning.
  • Size and location of the tree: Larger trees or those in difficult-to-access locations will cost more to remove.
  • Condition of the tree: Trees that are diseased, damaged, or pose a hazard may require specialized equipment or techniques, increasing the cost.
  • Local labor costs: Tree service rates can vary depending on the region and the availability of qualified arborists.
For a more accurate estimate of tree service costs for your specific needs, we recommend getting free quotes from reputable tree service companies on LocalTreeSurgeon.

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 best time of year to trim trees?

The best time to trim trees depends on the tree species and the type of trimming needed. Here are some general guidelines:
  • Dormant Season (Late Fall to Early Spring): This is generally the best time to trim most deciduous trees (those that lose their leaves in fall) as they are not actively growing. Trimming during dormancy reduces stress on the tree and allows for better wound closure.
  • Spring: Light pruning and shaping can be done in spring before the tree's leaves fully emerge.
  • Summer: Trimming can be done in summer to remove dead or diseased branches. However, avoid heavy pruning during hot weather, as it can stress the tree.
  • Fall: Some light pruning can be done in fall after the leaves have fallen, but it's best to avoid major pruning before winter.
Specific tree species may have different optimal trimming times, so it's always best to consult with a certified arborist for guidance. They can assess your trees and recommend the best time to trim them for optimal health and safety.
