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 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 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.

How do I know if my tree is diseased?

Look for these signs of tree disease:
  • Leaf discoloration or spots: Yellowing, browning, or spotting on leaves can indicate fungal infections, nutrient deficiencies, or other problems.
  • Premature leaf drop: Losing leaves earlier than usual or outside of the normal seasonal cycle can be a sign of stress or disease.
  • Dieback of branches: Branches dying from the tips inward can indicate disease, insect infestation, or drought stress.
  • Cankers or lesions: Sunken or discolored areas on the bark can indicate fungal or bacterial infections.
  • Mushrooms or conks growing on the trunk or roots: These are often signs of decay fungi.
  • Wilting or drooping leaves: Can indicate a lack of water, root damage, or vascular disease.
If you notice any of these signs, it's best to contact a certified arborist for a professional diagnosis and treatment recommendations.

What is the best way to protect trees during construction?

Protecting trees during construction projects is crucial for preserving their health and preventing damage. Here are some key steps to take:
  • Tree Protection Zone (TPZ): Establish a designated area around the trees that is off-limits to construction activities. The size of the TPZ depends on the tree's size and species, but generally, it should extend to the drip line (the outermost edge of the tree's canopy).
  • Root Protection: Avoid digging, trenching, or compacting the soil within the TPZ. If excavation is necessary, use hand digging or air spading to minimize root disturbance.
  • Trunk Protection: Protect tree trunks from damage by wrapping them with protective barriers, such as burlap or plywood.
  • Branch Protection: Avoid cutting or damaging branches unless absolutely necessary. If pruning is required, have it done by a certified arborist.
  • Watering: Ensure trees receive adequate water during construction, especially if the soil has been disturbed or compacted.
  • Monitoring: Regularly monitor trees for signs of stress or damage during and after construction.
Consulting with a certified arborist during the planning stages of a construction project can help ensure the protection of valuable trees on the site. They can provide expert advice on establishing TPZs, minimizing root disturbance, and mitigating potential impacts on tree health.
