Tree inspections

Usually both arborists and tree surgeons can carry out tree inspections. A tree inspection involves performing a hazard assessment to identify any potential dangers that a tree might cause, as well as looking at the tree’s general health.

The results of a tree inspection will allow the tree surgeon to decide what work needs to be carried out, how urgent that work is, how much it will cost, and what measures will need to be taken to ensure the safety of private customers and/or the public.

Removing branches

One of the most common jobs for a tree surgeon is to remove weak or dead branches from trees. Pruning trees in this way helps to improve the overall health of the tree. Removing branches can prevent more serious issues down the line, such as trees collapsing.

Stump removal

If you’ve had a tree fall down in the past and have been left with a tree stump that you want to get rid of, a tree surgeon can grind it down and remove it completely. They’ll do this using specialist tools, including a stump grinder.

Removing trees

Often, tree surgeons are called upon to remove entire trees, either for public safety or in the case of extreme disease. Arborists and tree surgeons will try their best to save trees where at all possible, but in the event that a tree must be removed they will do so with care. Tree removal is a big job and there are several key stages to the process, which must be carried out properly.

Site clearance

In the event that a large area of land needs to be cleared for development or land management projects, tree surgeons will be hired to clear an entire site of trees and plants. When finished the site will be completely clear of all vegetation.
