Services We Offer

R

Tree surgery and felling

Tree surgery involves the management of the tree when it is injured or diseased, to make sure that its life continues. A felling operation is used in cases where a tree has come down or needs to be brought down due to dangerous situations like storms and other weather conditions. We offer consultation services for both types of work, so you can get informed about your options before committing yourself.
R

Stump removal and grinding

After our Nottingham team takes care of hazardous trees, they complete their job by removing all traces left behind from chopping them down, including stumps, roots and pegs. Grinding here refers to making use of specialised equipment which chips away at these remnants until no trace remains on-site; this ensures safety during future operations in the area as well as in the surrounding areas.
R

Milling

We offer milling services for tree surgeons working on projects related to urban development and infrastructure, such as roads, buildings, or housing construction sites. Our team is experienced at taking down trees with a lot of undergrowth, without damaging other vegetation that may be found nearby during operations; this ensures the safety not only of our staff but also visitors at these locations once they resume their daily activities after we are done.
R

Dismantling

We are also able to take down any tree in Nottingham with proper preparation and planning. To ensure the safety of our staff, we use ladders for dismantling trees that stand between 20-30 feet tall. This way, the entire operation is done without the need for climbing equipment or riskier but often more efficient methods used by other service providers.
R

Crown reduction

We offer services such as crown thinning on trees that have grown too dense due to excess vegetation or overcrowding. It ensures better air circulation which results in healthier foliage, allowing the tree to grow while preventing decay and diminishing its lifespan at the same time.
R

Crown lifting

If you have a beautiful garden with tall trees, but they pose a significant risk to your home’s foundation because of their weight, we can offer our services as well – after removing hazardous tree branches from above your property, we will use hydraulic winches to lift and lower them so that no damage occurs when transporting these heavy materials through public spaces.
R

Emergency tree services

If you have lost a tree due to weather or an accident, we can offer emergency services.
R

Crown thinning

If you are looking for a way to reduce the weight of your tree’s crown, and want it to bear more fruit, our team can help – we will remove some branches for the overall structure of the tree to remain intact.
R

Dangerous tree removal

This particular type of work requires special safety measures required by law, which is why it cannot be done without using specific tools like protective footwear and clothing, or chainsaws designed specifically for the purpose – if not handled properly, they can cause serious injury or death.
R

Planting

We are one of the leading tree planting companies in Nottingham – we will provide you with a wide range of saplings and various other plants to choose from.
R

Branch and limb removal

If there are any branches or limbs that need removing, our team can help! We use chainsaws designed for this particular job, so make sure it is done properly.
R

Coppicing

Coppices refer to trees whose stems have been cut back regularly over several years-they sprout again, forming dense thickets which produce wood all year round.
R

Pruning and shaping

Pruning is the process of cutting away at a tree’s branches and twigs to control the overall shape.
R

At Home County Tree Surgeons, we provide quality hedge services for those who need them done well. We trim hedges to your desired height or simply keep them in check with our regular maintenance service.

Pollards are trees whose upper branches have been cut back regularly over several years-they sprout again, forming dense thickets which produce wood all year round.
R

Ivy removal

Ivy can be quite invasive and difficult to get rid of if not done properly. We will remove it for you!

Frequently Asked Questions

u

What are the responsibilities of a tree surgeon?

A tree surgeon bears the task of ensuring trees are well maintained. This includes making sure they have been cut back properly, that any deadwood has been removed and that the branches and trunks are supported to prevent accidents such as falling or being blown over.
u

What is a Conservation Area (CA)?

A conservation area refers to an area of land which has special protection due to its significant value for certain aspects, like landscape, flora/fauna, etc. They can be small areas, such as street corner gardens, or larger ones, including large parts of open countryside. Properties within these designated areas cannot normally be changed without first obtaining planning permission from your local council.
u

What is a Tree Preservation Order?

Tree preservation orders refer to statutory instruments issued by councils to protect trees on land they administer. The orders prohibit works likely to injure the tree or affect its healthy growth and include felling, lopping, uprooting and wilful damage to a protected tree without permission from the council.
u

What about the rubbish that is left over?

Tree surgery can be messy work, but we always make sure all waste materials leave your property in a clean state, so you are not inconvenienced by any mess after our work has been completed. We also have recycling facilities available for wood chips etc.
u

What is the best time of year for tree work to be carried out?

The best time to carry out tree work is during the spring and summer when trees are in good health.
u

I want to prune a tree, but I live in a conservation area. What should I do?

When carrying out tree work in a conservation area, it is always best to check with your local council whether you need permission.
u

Do you have insurance?

Yes, all our team members hold public liability insurance of £20 million along with employers’ liability cover of up to £60 million. We also have an Emergency Call Out Service that operates 365 days a year, 24 hours a day, so you can be sure there will always be someone available should your emergency arise at any time.
u

How long will I have to wait to have the work done after I have accepted the quotation?

We will always give you a roughly estimated time frame when we come to do your survey so that you know roughly how long the whole process will take from start to finish.
u

Do you provide free quotations?

Yes, we offer accurate estimates with no hidden extras at any time!
u

Will you actually turn up on time?

All our services will begin when agreed upon, so it is advised to book us well in advance to avoid disappointment. We also recommend having some form of backup plan just in case the first service provider doesn’t show up or delays their visit until later than agreed upon.
u

What is LOLER?

LOLER stands for the Land Occupation and Trespass Act, which was introduced in 1995 with the aim of regulating tree felling to ensure that trees are not removed illegally or without permission from landowners (including local councils). All work must be carried out by a professional tree surgeon. The act also ensures that land isn’t used inappropriately if it has been purchased under certain circumstances, such as when an adjacent property goes up for sale.
u

How Much Does Tree Surgery Cost?

The cost will vary depending on whether we need to remove your whole tree (s) completely or just prune them back at ground level so they don’t overhang your house. We won’t cut down any trees that are completely healthy and don’t need to be removed unless you have requested this specifically, in which case we will only quote for removal when it comes to carrying out the work itself.
u

Can I use the wood chips from my trees?

Yes! You can spread them around your garden or flower beds as mulch if they’re mainly made up of small branches/twins there’s no reason why not to do so! Just make sure they’re covered with soil regularly, because otherwise, they may become a fire hazard due to their high level of flammability.
u

Why should I hire a qualified arborist?

– Arborists have undergone training to be able to identify diseases, pests, and environmental problems.

– They are also experienced in the correct techniques required for all aspects of tree surgery, such as pruning/crown reduction/stump grinding etc. This ensures that your trees remain safe during our visit.

u

How can I tell if my tree is hazardous?

A tree is classed as hazardous if there are dead/dying branches or if the trunk has any cracking, splitting, cavities or decay.
u

Do mature trees need special care?

Yes! Mature trees have more structural and aesthetic value than younger ones, which means that they require a little bit more attention to keep them looking their best for years to come. For example, you may want us to do crown lifting on your large oak tree for it not to interfere with power lines running through your garden-this will involve removing some of the lower branches so that we can thin out the canopy, making sure that no weighty pieces of wood remain in place after the work is done.
