Benefits of tree surgery and felling

There are several benefits to tree surgery and felling to consider. Home County Tree Surgeons are experienced in tree surgery and felling, so you can feel safe knowing your trees will be taken care of.

The benefits include:

Tree surgery helps keep your tree healthy and this has several benefits. Firstly, when Home County Tree Surgeons complete a tree survey, we will be able to determine if the tree is suffering from any diseases or damage, which could lead to it becoming unsafe. Home County Tree Surgeons can remove diseased branches as well as deadwood that could pose an issue in future years, ensuring you have a happy and healthy tree for many more years.
Another benefit of getting trees treated by us is that it helps keep your garden looking great all year round. Deadwood on trees obviously makes them look unsightly, but there are also issues with safety too-we know how important it is that people feel safe around trees, so always ensure anything potentially dangerous is removed.

If you have a particularly large tree, Home County Tree Surgeons will be able to fell it for you too and ensure the stump is treated so there are no issues with regrowth in future years. This can also help your garden look great, as anything unsightly, such as stumps or dead wood from trees, can stop the natural flow of an area from looking nice.

When are tree surgery and felling not advised?

Tree surgeons advise that it should only be considered when the health or safety of a tree could cause danger to people, property, animals or other vegetation if action was not taken. We also recommend consulting an expert before cutting down any protected species, such as oak trees (Quercus robur).

Frequently Asked Questions

u

How do we keep you safe?

In keeping you safe during tree surgery and felling, we always ensure that all of our staff are fully trained in the relevant safety procedures.
u

Is there something wrong with my tree?

In most cases, there won’t be anything wrong at all-it’s more likely to be a case of general maintenance or pruning required. However, if you have any concerns about your trees, please get in touch!

Never attempt tree surgery yourself, as this can seriously damage your property (not just the trees!) and present a danger to those involved in cutting them down without proper training. Home County Tree Surgeons offer professional expert advice on what is best done for each tree when looking after their health.

u

Do I have to replace my tree if it is protected?

There are no special laws protecting trees, but some species of trees have gained status and protection by law (for example, Sites of Special Scientific Interest), so it’s best to check before any work is done. Home County Tree Surgeons will advise you on your options!
u

What questions should I ask a tree surgeon?

You might be surprised at how many people don’t know what they’re looking for when hiring an expert in this field. Here, Home County Tree Surgeons list out all the things that need asking about to make sure you’re getting exactly what you need.
u

Will the presence of birds or bats make any difference to my tree work?

Yes, Home County Tree Surgeons recommend you discuss this with your tree surgeon first. If we need to cut down a tree during the breeding season (March-August), then there may be additional fees and other restrictions that will apply.
u

What is the difference between an arborist and a tree surgeon?

An Arborist has many of the same qualifications as a tree surgeon, but not all. They have been trained in everything from planting trees to removing them completely and disposing of branches when necessary. Again, it’s always best to find out exactly what their specialities are, so you know whether or not they’re going to meet your exact needs.
