If you're planning garden work this summer, it's crucial to check if any trees you intend to cut down or lop are subject to a Tree Preservation Order (TPO).

A tree surgeon, also referred to as an arborist, is a highly skilled and trained professional who specialises in the care, maintenance, and management of trees.

Their role encompasses a diverse range of tasks that extend beyond the conventional image of cutting or removing trees.

It is important that clients understand the basic terms commonly used to describe tree work operations so that they can ask for what they want or understand what the arboriculturist is recommending. Did you know, for example, that a ‘crown thin’ will not reduce the height of the tree? Nor will a ‘crown lift to 4m’.

As dedicated professionals in the field of tree care, we understand the importance of proper pruning for the health, beauty, and longevity of your trees. One of the most common questions we receive from our customers is, "When is the best time to prune trees?"

Pruning is a vital aspect of tree care that involves selectively removing branches to promote healthy growth, structural stability, and safety.
