  • Richard Hall Ltd

    Richard Hall Ltd, Woods Yard, Pips Way, Beenham, RG7 5FS, GB

    Richard Hall Ltd is a specialist organisation in commercial Tree & Site Clearance - boasting industry leading machinery and highly skilled operators to match. Despite RHL's impressive reputation, Richard Hall started from somewhat more humble beginnings. Read on below to find out the story. After agricultural college, Richard Hall himself gained commercial experience and here, he realised his passion for plant machinery. At the tender age of 21, Richard decided to purchase his first digger. It was then, in 1996 that 'Richard Hall Groundworks' was formed. Over the next few years as Richard Hall worked on larger and larger agricultural groundwork contracts, his entrepreneurial flair developed and recognising more construction and development sites could be further assisted, In 2003 he purchased his first lorry. Richard Hall Ltd was born. Richard’s business then started to dramatically evolve as one lorry grew to become a small fleet - establishing RHL in the world of haulage services. Richard’s thirst for mechanised working led him to tree and land clearance. He saw the opportunity to offer machine assisted site clearance. Not only promising to considerably reduce the time spent on site he could leave an immaculately machine raked clear site, ready for the ground workers to start. This proved a hit with the construction and housing development clients where the best cost effective and fast clearance is critical.

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.

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.

Why is my tree dripping sap?

Sap dripping from a tree can be caused by several factors:
  • Insect Infestation: Some insects, like aphids, scales, or borers, feed on tree sap, causing it to drip or ooze from wounds or feeding sites.
  • Disease: Certain diseases, like bacterial wetwood or slime flux, can cause sap to flow excessively from cracks or wounds in the bark.
  • Mechanical Injury: Wounds or cuts in the bark, caused by pruning, storms, or other physical damage, can lead to sap dripping.
  • Environmental Stress: Extreme heat, drought, or other environmental stresses can sometimes cause trees to produce excess sap.
If you notice sap dripping from your tree, it's important to identify the cause to determine the appropriate course of action. A certified arborist can help diagnose the problem and recommend treatment or management options.

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.
