What we check on site

Tree work and routine garden maintenance

Trees need their own assessment

Large branches, damaged or unstable trees, work at height and tasks near services require an arborist assessment rather than ordinary garden tidying. Access, tree condition and applicable permissions determine the work. Do not cut or climb to investigate an unstable tree.

Do not climb, cut or work beneath unstable branches. Large trees, chainsaws, rigging, powerlines and protected vegetation require qualified arborists, controlled exclusion zones and any necessary approvals.

Tree Assessment & Arborist Work

Damaged branches or concerns about a tree

Describe the tree location, visible damage and nearby structures. We arrange the appropriate tree assessment before pruning or removal is agreed. A hanging branch or unstable tree is not treated as routine garden maintenance.

Retaining a tree or planning removal

The condition, location and proposed result determine the work. We agree the pruning or removal area, access and debris handling. Do not assume stump work or every nearby tree is included in a single enquiry.

What Affects the Quote?

Tree size and condition, access, nearby structures, equipment and waste handling affect the quote.

Tree Arborists service guide

Tree Arborists: Common Questions

Can a damaged tree be pruned rather than removed?

A qualified arborist needs to assess its health, defects and structural condition. Species-appropriate pruning may be an option, while the findings determine whether removal should be considered.

What should I do about a hanging or unstable branch?

Keep people clear and do not climb, cut or work beneath it. Describe its location, nearby buildings and any powerlines so qualified arborists can plan safe access and an exclusion zone.

When should tree work go to an arborist?

Large branches, unstable trees, height work or work near services need the appropriate tree assessment. We check the arborist scope and any permission requirements. Keep clear of unstable trees rather than treating the work as a small yard clean-up.
