Tree Surgeon Services

If you have trees on your property, you need to look after them to ensure they remain healthy, look good and don’t become a hazard. Caring for them can be a straightforward and relatively inexpensive process providing it’s carried out by someone who knows what they are doing. In the wrong hands, however, your trees can become damaged, unhealthy and a threat to life and your property.

Use a Professional Tree Surgeon to Prolong Healthy Life

Choosing the right company to look after your trees can be a problem because the tree care industry is open to people with low or no qualifications. It’s a relatively simple process to obtain the necessary equipment and set up as a provider of tree surgeon services. That doesn’t mean, however, that the person has the best or most appropriate equipment or knows how to use properly what they have. The outcome can be trees that are pruned incorrectly so their health suffers and damage to your property when safe practices aren’t used.

Specialist Emergency Tree Surgeon Services

Hiring reputable and competent land clearing companies can be difficult enough and is sometimes made worse by the terms that are used. In particular, some companies use the terms arborist and tree surgeon interchangeably when in fact the roles are quite different:

• An arborist is a specialist in tree management and will advise on the health and wellbeing of your trees. The arborist can tell you the best type of trees for your environment, where they should be planted and what conditions can infect or damage them. They will deal with trees that are not in good health and advise how to prevent infestations and infections.
• Tree surgeons specialise in mechanical aspects, generally pruning trees in such a way that recovery times are minimised. Tasks include dead branch removal, crown reduction where the top of the tree is cut back and the removal of trees. The latter can include stump extraction, which can be a complex task when a large part is below ground. If a tree is dead, diseased or wind damaged, an emergency tree surgeon can deal with it quickly and effectively to prevent harm.
